Since this is the last Wednesday before my wedding, after a year of planning, I thought I’d look at the wedding survival kit! My lovely bridesmaid, actually made an awesome kit full of all the thing s I will need, so I am ready for anything! Its so exciting to get to finally see all my planning come together and to get married at last!!

Today I am off for my make up trial! I wrote this post ahead of time, so I may or may not end up taking these images as inspiration, I am still deciding what look I want to go for. It’s Autumn, so I want a look that suits the season, and also a little vintage influence.   Wish my luck x

Trying to find that perfect little purse, that is unique, isn’t your typical bridal purse and suits my dress, what a challenge!!
Especially when you find things you like and it turns out they are no longer stocked or just insanely expensive. Perhaps I am just too picky!

These are some of the purses I came across and the style I have been searching for. 1920′s-30s style with beading and scallop edge/pattern. Which do you like best?

Pretty ways to decorate the Bride and Grooms chairs. Like royalty at the banquet.

Oh the fun of typography on a chalk board. I adore the top one!! Chalk boards and tram rolls, they are my fav things.

A bit of retro, vintage influence.

I am a type nut, I just love using letters and typography. Such a great decorative idea for weddings. Use your initials or make up words about love.

Since my wedding is in the colder months of the year, I need some sort of wrap/shawl for my bridesmaids and also my going away outfit. Trouble is, it’s not easy to search for these things as there are SO many names for them.. shawl, wrap, cape, caplet, shrug, bolero, stole, cardigans,  jacket.. there are probably more! So it’s not easy to search online for such things! I do really love the ones on bhldn, gorgeous but expensive!

p.s sorry a little late with wedding Wednesday this week, busy times!
