Bridesmaids/Moms
I have 5 girls standing up with me and after a few trips to Davids Bridal, we found 3 dresses we like so my girls can pick from these 3 and order them in Marine. They are all a cotton sateen so the fabrics match. My MOH along with 2 other girls will wear the strapless style. 1 BM will wear the Y-Neck style and the last BM will wear the spaghetti strap style.
As of last night, we decided to get the girls shoes. I had been eyeing a pair at DSW.com and found an amazing deal for the 5 pairs on another site so we pulled the trigger and bought these for the girls! I'm trying to decide if they will be in place of something or just extra.
I also bought them all navy blue Havaianas to change into at the reception.
Mother of the Bride
My mom found a dress at JC Penny's but after looking at more stores, we fell in love with this number from Davids Bridal. It has a removable bolero jacket and pockets! We haven't ordered it yet, but it's for sure the one.
We bought these shoes from Macy's, they are Nahla by Caparros in Mauve. Perfect for her silver dress!
Update! My mom ordered her dress and we found a clutch at Davids that almost perfectly matches her shoes. We also fell in love with a hair flower there for her but at $49, it's a little too pricey. Going to see what else we can find before we commit to that one.
Mother of the Groom
After several shopping trips over several month K's mom FINALLY found something she loves and ironically enough, it is the same style she tried on earlier but found it in a different color. She bought this from Macys and it is a plum color, we just need to get her shoes now.
Groomsmen/Dads/Ushers
We found this tux at Mens Warehouse, it is by Ralph Lauren. We decided to go the tux route to make it easier for the guys plus this tux isn't real formal but will give the guys a cohesive look. Because we will only be getting the jacket and pant, we get a discount!
Grooms wear
At first I wanted the guys to wear black suits but now K wants everyone to wear a black tux. I'm leaving the guys stuff up to him so this is his call! We did decide all the guys will wear ties instead of ties and vests. We found his tie at JCrew.
Groomsmen/Ushers
We found the Groomsmen and Ushers tie also at JCrew
Dads
We originally had ties from Macy's however we saw these and fell in love with the color, style and price! They are from Ties-neckties.com.
Little Men aka Ring Bearers
My 2 nephews will be our ring bearers and at the time of our wedding, they will be 5 and 2 1/2. They will be dressed in a vest and pant suit (no jacket) with a white shirt and a navy/green/white tie that came with this outfit.
They will each be carrying a pillow that my mom made from scratch...they turned out exactly perfect!
Both little guys will be wearing black Chuck Taylor's with their outfits. I figured they would be more comfortable this way.
I found this saying online and created a similar picture, used iron-on transfers and made my nephews tees to wear for the rehearsal! Super easy and they already told me they love them.
Boutonnieres
All guys will have a ranunculus bout. K's will be white with green hypercium berries. The Groomsmen and Ushers will be pink with the hypercium berries. The dads will just be a white ranunculus and then the 2 RBs will be a mini-ranunculus in white too.
Bridal Party gifts
I wanted to get my girls something that they will love that isn't necessarily wedding related and then also something small that is wedding related. Here's what I've come up with!
For my Maid of Honor I got her a Vera Bradley Hipster in the Daisy Daisy print. She is planning a family trip to Disney and wants a cross-body bag for ease for the trip. This pattern is cute but not too much.
Bmaid A is always looking for love and is my only single friend standing up with me. I found this necklace on Etsy by seller Sparkle True.
My oldest friend, L, has a tattoo on her ankle of XOXO so when I saw this, I instantly thought of her. It's by seller Winterberry Jewelry on Etsy.
For bridesmaid J, I wanted to find something simple and elegant just like her. She is my most spiritual friend and I loved the modern twist on this cross necklace. This is by seller Julies Adorabowls on Etsy.
I actually bought this print to give to BM M at her bridal shower but the frame did not arrive in time so I'm giving it to her as her bridesmaid gift instead! She met her future hubby in Seattle so I know she'll love this.I got the print from Ork Posters and a black frame from Ebay seller Tabby 7.
I found personalized wine glasses on Etsy by seller The Cute Glass. I would get them each their own with their name across the top and the date on the bottom. I also found a really cute option for me as well as for both moms on the same site.UPDATE! Here are the glasses! All pictures are of my glasses! I love them, the glass is a very heavy weight and the decorations are lovely. I know everyone will really like them!
