catching up - color palette

I have a lot of catching up to do on this blog.  Let's start with the color palette.  I've chosen shades of sage, peach, and ivory with accents of espresso.  This may change slightly, but you get the idea.

My bridesmaids will wear sage and the flowers will include shades of peach, orange, and cream.  I envision something along the lines of this:

I never thought I'd enjoy wedding planning, but finding ways to make it your own is so much fun! I love this blog Elizabeth Anne Designs - great inspiration for rustic/vintage color palettes.

Recently I stumbled across a website called Weddington Way, where you can find just about any combination or color of bridesmaid dresses you can imagine!  It's perfect because the girls can choose from my favorite selections in a style and price range that suits their needs.  Also, everyone is spread out across the country, so getting together to try on and fit dresses isn't an option.  This way, the girls are able to enter their measurements and I can put their selections side by side to see the complete look.  I love this.  Here is an example I really dig:

As for my own dress...I haven't found it yet.  I plan to begin the search very soon with the help of two bridesmaids! More on that later.
