Wedding Wednesday!

Oh my goodness! Thanks to everyone who commented about my engagement (and my outfits) because y'all really made my day! I know I say it all the time, but y'all are the BEST! I can't not even begin to know what I need to do to plan a wedding! I know the church I want, but other that...no idea. My boss gave me the idea of doing the reception out in the square that the church is on, and I love that idea. I also want to look around at different venues downtown. I just don't know how I will be able to decide! I am going to be counting on all of my newlywed and bride-to-be's to help me out! We are thinking June 2010 for our wedding, but the actual date depends on the church's availability. Here is a picture of the church I want to get married in. copyright: http://www.wesleymonumental.org/weddings.htm

Here are some pictures from theknot.com that I really like and could see me doing for my wedding.
I love everything about this picture. The attire of the bride and groom is exactly what I am wanting. I am thinking light and dark pink for the colors too. I really like these bridesmaid's dresses, but I might do something with a strap instead of strapless. I want all of my girl's to be comfortable and some of them don't do strapless in their day to day life. I think I will do a dress that has some type of color contrast like these though. I want peonies and roses for my flowers. I really want a bridal bouquet that is all white peonies and roses and my bridesmaids to carry different shades of pink.I like the idea of a full flower like a hydrangea and ribbon on the pews. These are the two colors I am thinking about too!I think I want small centerpieces with peonies and roses. I like that these have the table number coming out of it. I also really want votive candles on the tables.

I love this cake! I want to put flowers on our cake and our monogram possibly. I think the only thing I would change about this cake is instead of stripes on the bottom layer, I would put the lace design on it also. These are candies apples tied up for favors. I love the idea of giving something away to my guests that is uniquely Savannah and something that Thomas and I love! I am kinda stuck on the idea of pralines from Savannah Candy Kitchen now.

I hope y'all have enjoyed seeing some of the ideas I have for my wedding day! My mother and I are going to tour the church I have my heart set on in a few weeks to make sure that I really want that one. I will let y'all know how it goes!

  3. I will be closely following your Savannah ideas! I think that if Doc J and I didn't have a destination wedding we would definitely do Savannah since his family is there. My family lives in the North and there is no WAY I am getting married up there :-)! Have fun planning! Seems like you are off to a good start. Oh - and that church is Beautiful!!

  5. Those flowers are pretty! I saw on Whose Wedding Is It Anyway where they had the flowers around the inside glass of a fishbowl (a more rounder one) and was filled with water with lit floating candles in it as well! I love the pinks!!!

  6. I love all of your ideas! The color combos especially. They look gorgeous - the various pinks, sigh! My bestie is getting married next May & we are donning strapless dresses which I am actually quite stressed about - so that's great that you are thinking of your bridesmaids in that sense!

  7. Oh, I love all your ideas! You have a vision, which is MUCH more than I had when we were first engaged, and even more than I have now! HAHA. Love the shades of pink for your colors. Perfect for June!

    We're getting married this October, and I think we're going to do carmel apples for favors! :)
