I Saw My Other Wedding!

October 20th, 2009 @ 1:57 pm by Mrs. D'orsay

I mean, not my wedding. But the one we thought about having, with the original color scheme and the non-lace dress I was searching for. I was in Huntington Beach, CA for work and I saw girls in dark purple bridesmaid’s dresses, with the bouquets (cymbidium orchids, purple lisianthus, eggplant calla lilies, other structured flowers, etc.) floating through the hotel. I went to check out the ballroom while they were setting up and they even had similar centerpieces!

I wanted to take photos of it all, the bouquets, the bouts, the dresses! But I didn’t because I was a little too embarrassed to be taking photos of a couple details. So I tried to slyly snap a photo as I walked by…but it didn’t turn out too well. :( But, you can still sorta see the gorgeous bride with her bridesmaids and their lovely flowers!

I love the wedding we had, but it was still super fun to see my previous thoughts in action!

Have you ever seen your “other wedding”?

You’re a wedding stalker :P lol What a gorgeous bridal party though!

I haven’t seen a wedding like what I want mine to be… but I have been to one at my venue. I can only hope it will be as beautiful & classy as the other wedding was!

D’Orsay - you are just too cute! Great stalker pic, I need to steal your style… I’m either way too obvious (flash?!) or its all blurry :(
Can’t wait to see your own wedding recaps!

I would love it if the bride found herself on Weddingbee!

I took a bunch of photos of a bride when we were on our honeymoon in Italy. I couldn’t’ help thinking how amazing a TTD shoot would have been there!

@Jennifer: Your wedding was so beautiful! I’m glad you didn’t mind me sneaking a shot :)

@Soon2BeeMrsLewis: I really wanted to meet up but I flew in Friday AM and took the Saturday red-eye home. Believe you me, I wish I had stayed Saturday and hung out with some ‘bees!

Hi Jennifer -

Do you have any pictures you can send me or have any tips to share about the Hilton? Also - what vendor did you use for your flowers?
