So, this is kind of how I want my bridesmaids dress combination to look! I found all of these dresses at Urban Outfitters, Anthropologie, and jcrew. Lovely colors, huh? Of course I won’t have 11 bridesmaids, but this gives you a pretty good idea of what I’m looking for.
So these would be the main colors for invitations and other such things… what do you think? Do you see another color combo you like better?
VS:
And these would be the main colors:
I love both… I think I might be leaning a little bit more towards the first one. But I just can’t get away from how lovely the second one would be with a vintage circus theme. Any thoughts?

Okay, so I’m not officially engaged yet, but I’m getting close! I’ve been bouncing around all kinds of ideas and I need your help! Kennie and I just found THE PLACE. The place we’ll be having the wedding I mean. And let me say…. it is GORGEOUS! So, now that I can visualize it… let the planning begin!
A few things we know for sure:
- It’s going to be an outside wedding
- Happening in MAY
- Ceremony will take place in the evening
- The more unique the better!
- My brides maids will all wear different dresses of which THEY will choose themselves (as long as it goes with my color palette) Which is what you see directly under the chosen images. “Potential bridesmaids dress colors” simply mean these are the colors the have to choose from.
And the rest is still up in the air… which is why I need your help!
So I’m dabbling with the idea of having a circus/carnival themed wedding. Not over done, but I think it could just be so charming. I want it to be one big party! Nothing formal or stressful or perfect… just a big celebration!
Here a few circus/carnival weddings I’ve found:
glamour
grey likes weddings
green wedding shoes
Otherwise just something lovely, quirky, stylish, and unique… all in one. haha
Here a few visuals when it comes to color palettes:
Which one of these is your favorite?

I’m trying to get organized, so I’ll be sharing with you things that help me.
This is one of them! There are so many things that my mom and my grandmother cook that I LOVE, but I don’t have my own copy of the recipe. Plus these are just so darn cute! 
If you prefer another color, convo me! You might want it to match your kitchen… I understand. I love it when things match!

Make a batch of royal icing and color it as you wish.
Scoop the icing into a piping bag and using a small round tip, pipe dots of different sizes onto a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper.
Leave them overnight to harden and then carefully pick them up with a thin spatula and place them wherever you like on your cake.
If you are piping letters or numbers it would be helpful to print out the letters on a sheet of paper and slide it under the parchment sheet.. it will serve as a guide for you to follow with your piping bag.
