WedWed - Wedding Wednesday {19}
May 18, 2011 The other morning, while Chris and I were enjoying our breakfast burritos, we both came to the conclusion that things are about to get busy. With four short months until the wedding date, we are already starting to feel the increased workload. But don't feel sorry for us - this kind of crazy busy, once-in-a-lifetime season is worth loving not in spite of, but because of the madness.
One aspect of the planning process that I have enjoyed the most is working with each of our bridesmaids on dress and accessory choices. During the past couple weeks, the girls and I have been focused on narrowing down dresses and colors in order to make some overall decisions.
For the girls' individual looks, we decided to start with a neutral palette. Although the dresses are similar in tone, each is made with a different fabric to create interest. Also, tying the dresses together with complimentary accessories and shoes makes each look more playful.
Recall the wedding palette from way back in WedWed {1}? With so many products on the market, having something such as a palette or mood board to refer to definitely came in handy here. I get distracted so easily!
Once we chose the dresses, I set out to make a look guide for each girl. It's only meant to be a starting point, but I think the girls will be happy to get some ideas and direction before they make final purchases.
Here's how things are shaking up for the ladies thus far:

All they need is their gorgeous, "swoon-worthy" bouquet created by our florist, McKenzie Powell, and they're set!!
