The Groom
Jamie will be wearing a black tux with a White Vest/Euro tie. Tux from MW Tux.
Shower Dress
My Bridal Shower is on August 22nd, 2009. I found this dress at Dress Barn. It also comes with a light blue crop sweater that I might wear if it's cool that day.
Rehearsal Dress
I'm pretty much in love with this dress! As of right now I'm planning to wear it to the rehearsal and rehearsal dinner. This one is also from Dress Barn.
Wedding Day Shoes
I wanted to keep my shoes simple - something I could easily wear again! I got them for $30 from www.shoebuy.com
I'll be changing into flip-flops at the reception, but you don't need to see pictures of those. I'm pretty sure everyone knows what flip-flops look like!

Make Up Inspiration
I've decided that I'm going to have my makeup professionally done for my wedding. Just one less thing to worry about I guess! I love Kate Hudsons makeup, she's always gorgeous, natural looking and not over done.I have a makeup trial scheduled for July 27th.

Hair & Makeup Trial - 7.27.09
I did my hair & makeup trial with Theresa, from Moda Bella Salon. I LOVED the hair. The makeup was great, with the exception of the bright pink lipstick - that's being changed to a more neutral shade.

The Veil
I ordered my veil from www.lovethebride.com.
They have great customer service & even better prices! Cost was $36 w/ Free Shipping. The only difference from the photo is that my veil is a 2 Tier.

Jewelry
I fell in love with lariat style necklaces, but I couldn't find any that I loved within my budget. I finally found a fellow knottie (ChiMonique) that made jewelry. She recreated the necklace I loved, and she nailed it, it's GORGEOUS! She also made matching earrings for me and a beautiful necklace for my Mom. Everything was VERY reasonable priced too!
My jewelry cost $60 for the necklace and $12 for the earrings.
Her website is www.moniquesboutique.us

Garter
FI and I are HUGE Milwaukee Brewers fans, so I found it fitting to wear a Brewers garter! I got the matching set for $20 from Kristi's Charmed Life on Ebay. She has tons of different teams/themes.I bought this before we decided not to do the garter toss, not really sure what to do with it now!
My Dress
My dress is from David's Bridal. Sorry for the blurry photos. It's a strapless, A-line with a split back chapel length train. The bodice and train are covered with metallic embroidery, which I LOVE!
