A Note From a Contest Winner

June 30th, 2009 @ 3:45 pm by Reader Email

Reader Johnny D recently won our the DIY Office 2008 for Mac Wedding Contest. He and his fiancee received $1000, a new MacBook, and copy of Office 2008! Apparently his whole family is thrilled with their new prize, even his adorable puppy, Lulu!  Johnny sent us this sweet thank-you:

Thanks so much for the laptop.  It’s such an improvement from the previous set-up, everyone’s using it to get onto weddingbee.com!

Thanks again,

Johnny D

Reader Email: After The Wedding

October 26th, 2007 @ 3:00 pm by Reader Email

Dear Weddingbee, 

I wanted to write in and share my experience with my wedding gown after the wedding.  I hope after hearing my story, more brides can be prepared and not have to go thru the problems I am dealing with now, which are irreversible.

Please make sure you do your research beforehand and make a decision as to what you will be doing with your dress after the wedding.  Will you be drycleaning it or taking it somewhere for gown preservation?  Did you already pick out a place to take it to and is it reputable? 

It didn’t even cross my mind until the day after the wedding and I saw how dirty the hem of my dress was. My bustle had come undone sometime during the evening and the long train was dragged around the dancefloor and basically acted like a mop!  With a day before leaving for our honeymoon, I didn’t do my research and asked for a dry cleaning recommendation from the store where I bought the dress.  The place they referred me to seemed decent enough and I trusted the dress shop.

Our wedding will be held in Big Sur, California, at the Henry Miller Library (which is an outdoor venue).  Since it’s all outdoors, we’re going for a casual, garden-style wedding.

Hi Weddingbees,
 
Our wedding is going to be in Hong Kong but FI and I decided not to go with the local tradition of having everything red.  Instead, we wanted neutral colors with just a splash of color.  Our color scheme is black, champagne, ivory and silver with hints of pink and green.  The raspberry pink comes from my wedding shoes and sash.  Other pics are just sources of inspiration from things we like such as Art Deco wallpaper prints, bridesmaids dresses, and Chanel inspired dresses.  We wanted our celebration to reflect a mixture of old and new but at the same time look clean, simple and elegant.

This mood board was a hard concept.  I was trying to catch the mood in the blink of an eye.  However, we are a little over 7 months out and don’t have it all figured out yet.  I think this will be a great tool that came along at a perfect time in our planning.  So here is our board.

Kristin's Storyboard :  wedding themes Kamys Storyboard.jpg

Hello Weddingbees!  I’m delighted to share our storyboard with you.  We live in New England and decided to forgo the traditional themes because we wanted to bring in some outside influence.  It was also very important to us to have bright vibrant colors since we’re getting married in the summer and going on a tropical honeymoon.  For this reason, we used a cymbidium orchid as a color inspiration and went with kiwi green and fuchsia.

Storyboards! :  wedding themes Church.jpg

OK, I give in! I’ll do a storyboard! Our entire wedding was designed around the ring. My FI gave me his grandmother’s ring which she wore since the 1940’s. I plan to have antique jewelry in my hair and a ‘bar pin’ for my dress. We are taking a spin on tradition, but the simplicity of blue and white with pale pink flowers is just stunning to me. The men will be in tuxedos with all ivory, shirts, ties, vests. Most of our invitations/programs will be with old typewriter fonts and we will be placing china dessert plates on each table with assorted sugar wafers. There is so much more I couldn’t fit it all! Great idea with the mood boards. What fun!

We are planning a fairly traditional wedding with a modern twist. Our colors are red and orange, or ruby red and tangerine if you want to get technical :p.

I found my inspiration and color scheme through the bouquet in the middle of the board. We hope the board presents a fun, flirty, bright June wedding.  - Jessica

D's Storyboard :  wedding themes Inspirationboard1.jpg

Here is our inspiration board.  My fiance likes to say we’re going for “Country Elegance.”  After a two year engagement, we are finally exchanging vows in October.  Our wedding will be held on Lake Winnipesaukee - you know, the lake that is mentioned in that new AmEx “Member’s Project” ad on tv! Anyway, our wedding colors are green and brown with touches of rust, which can be found in our floral arrangements.  Our colors were largely inspired by the maple leaf brooch I found on an antique auction site and from a green/brown spread in Martha Stewart Weddings Magazine. We’re having a very traditional church wedding but hope to put people at ease at our gorgeous, but rustic reception venue that sits right on the bank of the lake. You can’t get better than a New Hampshire wedding in the middle of fall!
– D

The four pictures in the center of this board were the catalysts for selecting our colors: pink, which is my favorite, and orange, which is his.  The picture of the votives was the main one, and that’s from my Karen Bussen planner.  The wreath was the second big inspiration, and that’s from a wedding featured in The Knot.  The picture from a guestbook table is from knottie Bryslove.  I think the tone of our wedding is conveyed through the pictures and colors–fun, colorful, classy, modern, garden gathering.

The wedding is in 23 days and I cannot believe that all these pictures that have been inspiration for a year and a half for planning are going to be coming to life (to sound totally cliche). ;-)

Nellie's Storyboard :  wedding themes Nellie.gif

I’m planning a July 2008 wedding in New York City. My fiance is American and I am Chinese and I wanted to incorporate different aspects of my culture without making it overtly Chinese or Asian. The tone is light and airy but with bursts of color. I plan to have goldfish incorporated somehow, whether in the centerpieces along with floating flowers, or as a logo or invitation design. Creating the mood board helped me hone down my ideas. It’ll be especially helpful when I start considering bridesmaid dresses. -Nellie
