Mrs. Paisley's Picture
Mrs. Paisley, Orange County, CA Age and Occupation: 25, Journalist Fiance's Age and Occupation: 31, Spanish Professor Engagement Date: September 2008 Wedding Date: June 2010 Venue: Family Lake House About Me: From my earliest days I attracted attention, as much for my intelligence as for beauty. I display an originality, a perspicacity, a certain je ne sais quoi that sets me apart. I posses a mysterious authority which compels people to do my bidding. I am a regal blonde with classic features and the daintiness of Dresden porcelain. I am poised, soft-spoken, and well educated... Okay, now that enough eyebrows have sufficiently shot through the roof, everybody can relax---I kid! I'm just a sarcastic NorCal-turned-SoCal girl who loves outdoor activities, books, letterpress printing and of course, Professor Paisley.

Suiting E’reybody Up!

April 5th, 2010 @ 2:02 pm by Mrs. Paisley

David’s Bridal has done us good. After all of the hair-pulling, frustrating experiences of shopping for my girls, trying dress after dress, buying and returning, it’s been easy peasy now that DB is in the picture.

I wish I’d gone with them from the get-go.

Check out Maid of Honor Paisley in the winning dress:

She’s gorgeous!

This chiffon beauty looks great on all body types and goes really well with my strapless Melissa Sweet Lia gown. Picture it in navy.

I think it will complement the boys’ suits nicely, especially if they wear navy blue ties:

That’s Professor Paisley modeling the boys’ Jos A Bank tan seersucker suit. Please ignore the black t-shirt and instead imagine it with a white shirt and this navy tie with small pink paisleys on it:

Next up will be the MOB dress. Mama Paisley and I are going to go to the cute town of Mendocino to shop for her dress in a couple of weeks. They have some surprisingly great shopping in the little village of Mendocino.

Lastly will be Papa Paisley. He already owns his famous navy blue blazer, so perhaps that with some light-colored pants? It’s been his formal-wear staple for years; I hate to deny him wearing it to walk me down the aisle!

Has it been a months-long challenge to suit up your bridal party? How’d you cope with the stress?

I like the chiffon too! The loose airy nature of these goddess dresses really seems to fit a variety of sizes as I found with my bridal party.

Stress coping = sugary treats or a nice white mocha from starbucks =)
