We got a little insight from the bride:What inspired your wedding day outfits? My dress was pure fate–not the style I expected to end up with at all, but it was named after me (even spelled correctly–that never happens!) and I fell in love with it instantly upon trying it on. The groom’s suit was a long process, but ultimately, a last-second decision–we knew we wanted him in a blue (not navy) suit, but could not find the right color. In the end, I think the color we chose worked perfectly. I despise standard bridesmaid dresses and the stores they are sold in, so I didn’t even look there. We tried out a few styles, but these sparkly, purple evening gowns looked great on everyone, and were both fun and elegant. I lucked out on finding the junior bridesmaid dress online, which matched perfectly. The big, poofy flower girl dress, which I ordered on Etsy, also matched perfectly and was so adorable on my niece. I love fashion, so wardrobe was really fun for me. The grey of the girls’ shoes coordinated with the guys’ grey suits. The guys wore blue shirts with blue and purple ties and blue pocket squares; the groom wore grey and fuchsia shoes and a dark grey tie. The girls’ necklaces and bouquets brought in variety of color to their outfits, and the groom’s fuchsia boutonniere tied in with the girls and with his shoes. My shoes were sparkly and mostly purple and my brooch bouquet incorporated all of the blues, purples, and some yellow gold. Gold, copper, and brass were the accents throughout the decor: in the candles, chandeliers, wicker balls, cocktail hour linens, my jewelry and bouquet, etc. (The colors were also really well used on our invitations.)
