Anjanette & Jason Disneyland Hotel PJ (May 8, 2010) -- We're back! 5/15

[Petals & Pixie Dust]

I have apparently been under a rock I just found your PJ...Love it! Everything looks great! So excited to hear about a Disney LAND wedding Can't wait to read more!

 

[ghoulish delight]

Ahh, full bellied and ready to fill everyone in some more!

Here's one more hair pic I forgot to post, just because it's my girl-crush AND her hair just so happens to be sickeningly adorable!

Alright. So, I'd been meaning to drop by our florist and pay her a visit for quite some time. Today I called and asked if I could drop by to make some changes to my bouquet, and give her a map of the venue. The biggest change I made was changing the purple dendrobium bombay orchids in my bouquet to the teal dyed ones. I also took out lavender roses as I didn't really want a light purple in there.

This isn't exactly what mine will look like, as there will be more dark purple in mine and it'll be a cascade bouquet, but it's not too far off:

I'm having white roses, white star lillies, purple lisianthus, white dendrobium orchids, the teal dyed purple orchids with diamonds in my roses. Here's to hoping it'll turn out nicely!

The first time we met with her she made us a quick sample that used the purple bombay orchid and it was beautiful. The only problem I had with it was that it seemed too pink. Not that I dislike pink, but our colors are dark purple and teal. So now that I changed MY bombay orchids to be the teal dyed, she thinks the BM bouquets should have the teal dyed also. The problem is, the sample she made that time was using the flowers she was going to use in the BM's. So if you look, it already has not only the purple but the teal also!

(The sample I'm talking about)

I'm worried that it's going to be too much and I should just keep theirs the regular purple bombay orchids? What do you guys think?

The LAST thing I'd want would be color overkill.

Just read through your whole PJ.

Love your ring, very unique. purple is my fav colour and I think the teal goes great with it. Your wedding dress is lovely as is the necklace you just got. I think your bouquet looks really cute. I hope you are able to sort your budget out. Unless you are really big eaters i'd say not having the dining plan is cheaper.

Looking forward to hearing more.

Ooh I am loving the hairstyles!!!

Few updates to share with you all!

The one thing I've been consistently unsure about with the wedding planning has been my hair. I don't know WHY exactly it's been such a painful thing for me, but it's been my hardest thing to pick out as of yet!

So yesterday, I started googling bridal hair. Finding nothing that seemed very me, or what I wanted - I decided to search pinups again. This time, I tried modern day pinups. Silly as it may seem, I found a style I fell in love with!

I think it's just perfect!! I just wish I could find a bigger picture of it. I'm also thinking about going with a flower clip instead of a hair comb now! I think it would be appropriate for the vintage do.

I think I'd want a hybrid of the first style and this one:

Okay, forgive me girls, but I gotta go get dinner going but I've got floral updates too for you when I get back!

Oh a girl after my own heart!!! You have amazing taste!

I love that first one! Kind of reminds me of the one i have in my PJ!

Hmmm.. for the flowers I think if yours has a lot of the white it shouldn't be color overload with the bridesmaids bouquets. But, really it comes down to what you think will be best. You could always ask your floral person too, they are usually great with suggestions.

Love all the hair ideas, I think the first one and the one you just posted are my favorites.

 

[polynesianbride]

As always I love the hair pics you posted I also really like your flowers... I don't think you'll be color overloaded with the teal dyed orchids (of course I'm kinda a color nut so you may not want to take my word for it)- but honestly I think that you'll have enough white in there to balance it out I do agree with you that the regular orchid as posted in the sample is not the right shade for the bouquet- definately too pinkish.

 

[LLLBelle]

I love the hair, gorgeous!

I think it could go either way with the flowers, the colors look awesome together and done right it will look beautiful. It's hard when you don't really know what the finished product will look like.

I love the teal orchids! , the white and teal is stunning.

 

[scarlet-la-belle]

Those hair styles are very beautiful, I often do my hair in 50's pin curls and add a flower! I don't know if you have looked at this site but they do lovely flowers and combs here www.johnnylovesrosie.co.uk

 

[tiggersam00]

I agree, I like the white flowers with a pop of color, it looks very elegent and modern! Now the hair, you know I love it! Katy Perry rocks!

 

[redlight]

Another yes vote for the Katy Perry hair.

 

[ghoulish delight]

Thanks for all the lovely compliments and words of wisdom as always, my darlings!

I just thought I'd pop by and share the latest wedding planning news...

After bugging our coordinator to send out our complimentary Disney save-the-dates, they finally arrived!! They're not as pretty or fancy as all you other brides', but what I love most about them is I didn't have to do a thing! They're not half bad either! And did I mention they were free?!

That picture is mostly to show that they even used a cute little stamp of two rings together. Hehe.

Also, I got my necklace in the mail today!! It's perfect! Very delicate and feminine. Exactly what I wanted. Truly, pictures don't do it justice but I promised to model it for you ladies, so here you go!

And last in the news department... WE BOOKED OUR FLIGHT TO ORLANDO FOR OUR DISNEYMOON!! (I'm not excited or anything! )
