I got married this month (December) but I officially began compiling inspiration a little more than a year ago. I know I dont work well in high pressure situation, so I started early. Creating mood boards was one of the best process of wedding planning. Looking back, its funny how preferences or style can change is just the span of a year. I know I am going to look back and think of my wedding a lot, so let this be a post for future reminisce's sake. And yes, I create detailed moodboards for all my vendors so there is no communication issues :)
The original decor -main hues of blush pink, roses and hydrangea, with garden statues, hanging chandeliers and bright light.
Final decor - chandelier and flowers stayed but changed my mind to a dark ambience, with sage green as the main color pallette. Simply because I got bored with pink this year.
Morning look plan - wanted to go for something sleek and timeless with a hint of lace and pearls.
'Most ardently' because I love pride and prejudice.
Bridal robe plan - flowy and comfortable but still romantic
Final choices - 2 weeks prior to my wedding date I decided to go for long sleeved lace gown instead. Some people thought I got the inspiration from Kate Middleton (yayy!) but actually, I wanted to go for something that looks like 'kebaya'. Something polite and a bit traditional for my morning procession with my family and loved ones. My final veil reads "long live all the magic we made"
I knew I wanted a flower 3D fabric from the start. And I wanted pink peonies for my night reception.
Fun fact - I almost set my wedding theme to Swan Lake (hence, the headpiece and ballerina themed dress).
Invitation proposal before I changed the theme yet again to sage green
In the end, everything just came together perfectly. In lovee with my wedding dress fabrics, the way it hugs my body perfectly, but most of all the way I am relatively comfortable throughout the day.
Officially saying goodbye to this bridal era, and now embracing my wifey lifey lol.
