Bio

Our wedding will take place on the beach in Siesta Key! We're getting married at Sunset Pointe on Siesta Beach.

The Ceremony

Here is the bamboo canopy we'll be saying our vows under:

I plan on hanging strings of orchids and crystals from the canopy like these:

UPDATE!
I finally got around to making the orchid/crystal strings...it has taken FOREVER! I love how they have turned out though. I got everything at Michael's. All I used was some fishing line, a couple orchid bushes and some crystal beads that I found in the wedding department. I made knots to act as little stoppers for the orchids and crystals.

I got some palm leaf fans from Bliss Weddings Market. I am spray painting them chocolate brown and wrapping the handles in green ribbon

Newsletter & Luggage Tags

I am sending out some personalized luggage tags and a little newsletter about a week before the wedding

Welcome Bags

I got these welcome bags from www.blissweddingsmarket.com

I made my STD's on PowerPoint and then uploaded them onto Vistaprint. I did large magnets and post-cards -- everyone loved them!

I also made my AHR invitations on PowerPoint and I am going to have them printed by Vistaprint

Centerpieces

UPDATE!

Here's my first centerpiece trial -- It will be sitting on a round mirror and having votives surrounding it(provided by venue) so it won't look so plain :)

Cake Table

I love these hanging orchids on the cake table

THE DRESS!

My dress is Allure, style # 8432. This dress was around $800 in the bridal shops but I ended up finding it on Ebay for $250!

I am having some MAJOR reconstruction done to it though -- We cut the straps off so that it will look something like this:

I'm nervous!!

FI & GM Attire

We got FI's suit 1/2 off at JcPenney's for $150!

Groomsmen will be wearing white button downs and khaki pants with a brown belt

I don't know how it worked out this way, but all of my BM's chose the same dress! My MOH is wearing it in green while the rest of the girls are wearing it in mocha

I have no clue what I'm going to do with my hair...But I love all of these
