Mrs. Seal's Picture
Mrs. Seal, San Francisco Age and Occupation: 25, Personal Assistant Fiance's Age and Occupation: 29, Sales and Support Specialist Engagement Date: December 12, 2009 Wedding Date: November 2011 Venue: Sts Peter and Paul Church/The Bently Reserve About Me: I am a goofy, wannabe crafty, well-intentioned Renaissance Woman (OK, perhaps "aimless wanderer" is a more aptly suited term for me, but hopefully you get the point)—basically I dabble in just about everything and pride myself in such. Without warning, I occasionally breakout into soulful improvised songs and interpretive dances and there's just no stopping me! As so many others before me, planning our wedding has unearthed a deep, intense passion for all things bridal and I secretly fear the day it will come to an end. Mr. Seal and I are quite the pair and life with him by my side is extremely rewarding—I am so thankful to have found him. Together we are planning a black-tie San Francisco affair for 250—light on the stuffiness and with lots of extra Seal-y flair.
About Mrs. Seal

Rather than working on the unfinished wedding craft projects that have currently rendered my dining room table useless (seriously, it’s a disaster), I am daydreaming about my bridal shower and rehearsal dinner outfits. Care to contribute to my procrastination and look at pretty things?

Of course you do!

My French-inspired bridal shower look:

Oh You Pretty Things!: Procrastination at its Finest :  wedding dress san francisco Bridal bridal_

Clockwise from top: “Oui” Necklace via Etsy seller ArtWark; Miss Dior Eau de Parfume via Sephora; “I Lacquer A Lot” Dress via ModCloth; Enzoani Sandals via Zappos

I have been eyeing that “oui” necklace for months and I think I might finally bite the bullet this week and scoop it up. Mmm and the Miss Dior perfume is one of my scent staples!

Alright, so I haven’t actually made any plans for the rehearsal dinner yet, however, I have given quite a bit of thought towards my outfit for the evening. I really like the idea of wearing white for the rehearsal so that’s exactly what I intend to do.

Oh You Pretty Things!: Procrastination at its Finest :  wedding dress san francisco Rehears rehears

Clockwise from top Left: “Love” ring from Etsy seller keoops8; ABS by Allen Schwartz dress via Nordstrom; Badgley Mischka “Lissa” shoes via Endless; Silver bangles via Forever21; Beaded headband from Etsy seller BethanyLorelle; Sequined “Audrey” wristlet by Coach

The ABS dress, Badgley Mischka shoes and the Coach wristlet are waaaay out of my budget but I’m pretty confident I can find some comparable items for a fraction of the price.

Alright, time to stop fantasizing and get back down to business. Mr. Seal really hates when our dining room table is a mess.

How much thought have you given to your pre-wedding looks? Have craft projects for the wedding taken over your home?

You are not alone in your attire planning…I bought my dress for my shower and rehearsal dinner (and bachelorette) last year. I JUST had my shower 2 weeks ago and my RD isn’t until September. LOVE that Mod Cloth dress!

All of the time! I cannot seem to find the right dress for either my bridal shower or rehearsal dinner. I love the idea of wearing white too. I was thinking about wearing white to shower and pink to rehearsal. Love everything you have picked out!!
