Weddingbee Blog

Alright! Planning is just about back on track, so here’s my very last procrastination peace offering, made just for my beloved bees (and my sanity)! Feel free to catch up on part one and part two.

A couple of you asked in my last post which bride I related to most, I’ll give you a hint- it’s the first one in this post. (I’m not good at being mysterious. )

The Southern Bride- The epitome of southern charm and femininity, she’s a daddy’s girl through and through. Her colors are a more modern take on the famous “blush and bashful”- pinks and purples have always been her thing. She’s getting married at an antebellum mansion turned b&b, and her father giving her away is non-negotiable. She’s carrying a lush bouquet of purple and pink wild flowers that are wrapped in lace to match her dress, and accented with a vintage locket that belonged to her grandma. She’ll be treating her guests to a fun yet elegant Southern BBQ, and finishing their meal with a 5 tiered fondant confection.

The Urban Bride- She’s a full blown city girl who knows what she wants, and knows exactly how to get it. She’s getting married in an immaculately designed NYC loft, to which she will be arriving via taxi, of course. Her invitations are elegant, understated, and letterpressed and her dress is perfectly slinky with black accents and yellow shoes. Her groom wears a classic tux and her bridesmaids are all wearing different little black dresses. After the reception they take to the streets, still decked out in their wedding attire. What else would you except from a New York City girl?

The Retro Bride- She loves Old Hollywood movies and retro Americana. She’s getting married on the 4th of July at the Little White Chapel in fabulous Las Vegas. Her dress is custom made, short, poufy, and perfectly “her”. Her groom wears suspenders and a bow tie, with a red berries on his lapel. Her fire engine red lips match her red patent heels, and their cake is ridiculously kitschy in the cutest of ways. Instead of a formal reception, they’ll be gambling the night away. Only in Vegas!

Anyone here getting (or gotten) married in Vegas? How would you describe your dream bride style?
