recaps!

I realize I’ve been lacking in the wedding recap department…but for good reason!  I’ve been busy writing up some good ones for Elizabeth Anne Designs…a couple have already been posted:

Our Nebraska Wedding:  The Day Begins

&

Our Nebraska Wedding:  Getting Pretty!

Go check them out!  …and stay tuned for more that will go up in the following weeks!

just a pic that didn’t make the recap-cut…I love that it shows off my headband!

…as in the Post Wedding Chop!

two weeks ago I set off to donate 10 inches of my red gorgeousness to ‘Locks of Love‘!

First we have the self-portrait-in-the-mirror before pic…

and then the After (two weeks later…)!

ok yes…I took these on my laptop just now…whatever you get the point

So far so good!   Although pulling my hair back for running has proven to be a bit difficult…bring on the bobby pins!!  This is actually my second time donating to locks of love…last time I did 12 inches…eeek!  I might be addicted…

fun fact… I found out that the salon I go to donates all the cut hair to an organization that makes mats from it that are used to help clean up oil spills.  So even if I didn’t give it to locks of love it would have gone toward another worthy cause…how cool!

And now… because you have all been such patient readers…here’s a quick pic from our honeymoon in Jamaica!

granted you don’t see the ocean…but believe me…it was beautiful!!

more to come…eventually!

Headband-ing it

It is true…I am very indecisive…I may have mentioned this before.  It drives Lance insane…and isn’t one of the best qualities to have when trying to plan a wedding.

an example.  I thought I wanted some type of flower piece in my hair…but now I think I want to headband it…just like this bride did.

I am Loving these new lace-y vintage-y headbands from Oh My Deer.

Ban.do has some beautiful options as well…although a bit out of my price range…dang!

I was just recently introduced to the lovely shop Pluma…which carries some gorgeous options as well.

loving this purple one! (obv.)

So now the question is…what type of headband do I go for?   With an all lace dress this might be tricky… A simple band, some beading, lace…oh man…so many decisions…so little time.

more hair envy

I LOVE her hair…I’m envisioning something like this for myself…

 

OK there might be a little wedding envy too…

veil inspiration

So now that I’ve got the dress…time to think about accessories!  I’m not in any rush to get these yet but now that I have a direction to go in I’ve been paying more attention when I see something I like.

Take for instance this veil

I don’t plan on posting pics of my dress so you’ll have to believe me when I say I think something like this will look good with it…mainly the lace around the edges part.  I’m undecided on the length I want…but I do like how this one looks.

Red

…as in hair!  I have it!  and so does this bride…

I’m kinda loving the hair-to-the-side-low-pony-tail look…does this mean I’ll have to get bangs (gasp!)!?!

she even has a bright blue flower in her hair…love it!  (oh and obv I love the dress too!)

I’m still undecided about my hair…up or down…I am definately liking this option though…guess I’ll just keep on growing my hair out!

oh and a couple more pictures…just because I like them!

how cool is this…the guys are about to jump over the girls!

(you can see the animated version here)

and lastly…

love the pinwheels…and the light…gorgeous!
