One of the biggest trends that I love right now is hair flowers. I love all kinds of hair adornments, actually, but especially hair flowers. Preferably with some feathers or something shiny attached.
I have spent many hours on Etsy, as I’m sure many of us have, searching for the perfect hair flower.
There is this pretty little lovely… It’s got the flowers and something shiny. But at the price of $64, I kept looking.

One of the first things your guests will see is your table decorations. I am so in love with so many different things that I’m afraid our whole wedding is going to look mismatched. :/
Maybe that should be our theme…mismatched, beach-chic.

I found eco-fetti because our venue won’t allow real confetti, so we had to find some fun alternatives. So I did some Googlin’ and I found eco-fetti. I actually found some on Save on Crafts, and I ordered it up!
I got the package a couple of days later and, I have to say, I was a little disappointed. Now, don’t get me wrong—it was pretty cheap for a big bag of confetti. So, if you are looking for something cheap for people to chuck at you, then this could be your answer.

So, one of the big things about having a beach wedding is that it’s going to be hot. Hopefully not too hot, but it will at least be humid! Now, don’t get me wrong, I love my wedding dress (which just came in, by the way!), but it’s not the most comfortable thing in the world.

After doing some research on bridesmaids’ dresses, I knew I wanted my girls to wear something pretty, but not too stuffy and formal. It is a beach wedding, after all.
I happened to stumble upon Target’s website, and it turns out that they actually have some really cute dresses that could work as bridesmaids’ dresses. Here are a few of the cute dresses that they have.

I seriously love my bridesmaids. I could not have asked for a more beautiful (inside and out), caring, awesome group of girls to be with me on my big day. So, it was only fitting that I wanted them to wear something they would totally love and feel great in. Something puffy and shiny, with lots of ruffles…heh, JK.

If you are like me, you browse through countless wedding blogs whenever humanly possible. I love seeing all the lovely little details of DIY weddings and stare longingly, wondering how to make them.
Today I wanted to try those cute little cupcake signs that have been seen on Style Me Pretty.

When I was little I saw a Barbra Streisand movie called The Mirror Has Two Faces. I don’t remember what the movie was about, but I do remember the name of a cheesetastic song that I was sure would be my wedding song one day.

Remember my save-the-date hankies? Well, this is how I decided to send them! I bought the assorted-card-stock package at Hobby Lobby, which was really convenient.
