Glamnuptials: Our Details

I love detail shots and since I worked hard DIYing some elements of my attire, I wanted to make sure I had pictures to remember forever all the hard work and crazy hours I spent. When the photographer arrived, I asked him if he could take pictures of our details and he did just that.

I absolutely adore these pictures of my wedding dress - it’s simply stunning. How I wish I could wear it all day long. Seriously… :D

I loved all my bling. It was very glamorous and representative of our overall theme. I literally felt like a million dollars wearing my jewelry.

These details were for Mr. Flamingo and his first love - Superman. I wanted to have something extra special for him and my DIY Superman Garter definitely caught everyone’s attention. His cufflinks were perfect and cute, I must admit.

Your gown is AMAZING! Diggin the Superman garter. I’m doing the same thing but mine will be handcuffs…FH is a police officers.

Your bouquet was beautiful! What kind of flowers are those? I know nothing about flowers except that peonies are not available for my November wedding :-( that is unless I fly them in and that’s a big, N-O!

@Shasha: My flowers are peonies… but you can use carnations to get the same look. Check it out here: http://www.weddingbee.com/2008/07/28/photo-shoot-diy-bouquet/

@Mrs. Flamingo: Carnations would have my FMIL in the hospital in no time.

She isn’t paying (for anything) but she was sure adament about “NOOO CARNATIONS!” Sadly that’s the flower that my mothers bouqet was comprised of some 52 years ago.
