Mrs. Coconut's Picture
Mrs. Coconut, Tallahassee Age and Occupation: 27, Lawyer Fiance's Age and Occupation: 24, phD Computer Science Engagement Date: March 2007 Wedding Date: November 2008 Blogging Since: May 20, 2008 Venue: 1930s Historic Building in Lakeland, FL About Me: I never thought about weddings until I got engaged. Now, I can't stop thinking about them! Planning the wedding has really opened the floodgates to my DIY side. If there's anything I can do to avoid hiring someone else, I will do it! Mr. Coconut is my financial advisor, he tries to keep me budget-conscious! We've tried to make wedding planning a team effort!
About Mrs. Coconut
Continuing with Gettin’ Prettified, it was time to put on the dress! Yippie! (Warning: Lots of “me” pictures are coming, please don’t think I’m vain!) This first part of the morning went by slow and steady, but then, BAM! Time started to fly by and there was nothing I could do to stop it.

Yes, it takes this many people to get into a wedding dress!

That bridesmaid with the awesome cleavage? Yeah, that’s Ashley. She’s my bestest friend. I think she’s about to cry, don’t you?!

I felt really calm and cool at this point.

Darla was undoubtedly my favorite wedding vendor. She made me pretty; who wouldn’t love her?

A couple neat “spider web” pictures.

My dear friend Margot brought some pink champagne right before the first look!

Mrs. C, I have to ask, where on earth did you get those fantastic earrings? I’m looking for something just like them and haven’t had much luck. (I’m wearing an heirloom drop pearl necklace much like yours.) Any help is mucho appreciated. PS: You looked AMAZING.

@portlandgirl41 & shootingstar: The diamond and pearl earrings were a loan from my friend, Margot. They were the real deal man, I was afraid to even wear them! They were gifted to her, so I’m afraid I can’t tell you where they were purchased!

@trendy_vixen: hahaha, I have a slight addiction to Etsy, don’t I? Yes, I got the veil from Etsy seller, somethingboldveils. Although the bandeau was very tricky, we had to fold it at the top because I had trouble getting it to lay properly. I would get the Marilyn, it seems much easier!

Thanks, your wedding was gorgeous/inspiring!
