Weddingbee Blog

I didn’t have a chance to share my somethings with you before the wedding, so here we go!

Something New: dress, shoes, and jewelry

I loved my dress…

…and all of the detail on the waist…

…and the bust.

My bracelet was from J. Crew. I thought the pearls and rhinestones echoed the detail on the waist perfectly.

My necklace was a gift from my mom.

My earrings were the first piece of jewelry I picked for my wedding ensemble.

My beloved purple Floral Fandango shoes from Anthropologie that I went to great lengths to get.

Something Old and Blue: antique gazelle pin

I wanted something to represent Weddingbee on me. I found this gorgeous antique silver gazelle pin on eBay. I tied a blue ribbon to it to represent my something blue.

I pinned the gazelle to the crinoline under my dress.

Something Borrowed: garter and bees

My friend Tara lent me her garter that a friend had handmade for her. It was so sweet of her to let me borrow it. It was absolutely gorgeous. We did not do a garter toss so only a few people knew it was there.

I also had the travelling bees with me that have been making their way around the hive! Unfortunately by the time I got them (darn you Canada Post strike!) I didn’t have much of an idea for how to incorporate them on the day. I carried the bees in my purse.

How did you incorporate the somethings in your wedding day ensemble?
