The Girly Girl in Me…On Fire…with a Bullhorn

HUGE Confession…I’m a girly girl fashionista trapped inside the body of super casual, some would say overly “au naturel” lady. That’s right. Full disclosure…I don’t have a closet full of fabulous clothes and accessories and I’m not much for wearing loads of makeup. That’s probably why I love writing this blog so much, because it’s my opportunity to vicariously live in the world of fabulously pretty things I can’t always have.

That’s okay though…if it’s inspiration for me, I’m guessing it’s inspiration for you as well and that’s my main goal. Take this very soft pastel wedding inspiration board for instance. This is another dream wedding palette I would love to duplicate if I had a wedding do-over. I imagine a spring wedding in a garden somewhere like maybe a botanical reserve, flower farm or an estate with lush flowing grounds. But rather than the typical evening soirée, I would plan a mid to late morning ceremony. The feel would be very romantic with soft pastels and lush flowers like blush roses, dahlias, peonies and hydrangeas. There would be a brunch reception and I’d incorporate all kinds of fun games or activities like croquet, bocce ball and Badminton for the guests to enjoy while lounging and enjoying the property for the rest of the day. Then there’d be a cocktail party to wrap up the event, which of course would require I change into another gorgeous dress of some sort, right?

So yeah…as of right now, that would be my perfect wedding if I had a do over. And here’s how I envision it would look.
