2010 September | Weddingbee

Mrs. Brooch, Arlington, VA Age and Occupation: 25, Writer/Editor Fiance's Age and Occupation: 29, Front Desk Manager Engagement Date: October 3, 2009 Wedding Date: April 2011 Venue: Oxon Hill Manor About Me: I’m an indecisive girlie-girl with a motor mouth, can-do attitude, and knack for making others laugh. I dream of becoming a best selling novelist like Elizabeth Gilbert or Julie Powell (a girl can dream, right?), and love long road trips, a beautiful countryside, music, blogs, books, and all things vintage/thrift/antique/or homemade. I’m a Virgo, i.e. overly sensitive, emotional, and critical, and there’s no such thing as short and sweet in my world. I want to say and do it all. Mr. Brooch grounds me. I point where to go and he figures out the way. He’s a pragmatic fancy-pants who enjoys video games and movies. We both adore our mutt, Rocky, and spending time with our amazingly supportive family and friends. We’re planning a garden wedding with a formal reception with lots of whimsy and unique, Southern-inspired details.

Shades of Bridesmaids

September 1st, 2010 @ 8:40 am by Mrs. Brooch

I haven’t decided whether I want my all of my bridesmaids to wear the same dress or have them wear dresses that are shades of one color. If I run into a particular dress that I adore, they might all wear that dress!

However, in the event I don’t find one dress, I may have them wear different dresses of the same shade. I’ve always imagined the dresses would be green (my favorite color is green), but I’ve seen bridesmaids in shades of yellow, pink, and gray.

Either way, I need to have pictures of this new trend to show my girls. A lot of them haven’t heard of bridesmaids wearing different dresses, and a lot of them have never seen it either. Also, I know for a fact at least one them thinks it’s flat out tacky. (It’s OK! I’m not offended!)

If the shoes were the same, this would work for me:
