Let it Snow!

Blame the temperature here in Philly, but when I woke up this morning I begged for a snow day. Alas, all I got was some frost on my windshield. Figures.

At any rate, I ended up with the idea of a shiny red/gold Christmas wedding:



Decadent, no? I think that planning a holiday wedding would be way too much trouble for everyone involved, but that does not mean that it is all bad news. Pomegranate is a very fall/winter shade of red, so it just won't work in my summer wedding. Winter brides have me there. Also, there is the possibility of a yummy hot chocolate bar with things like marshmallows and cinnamon.

By the by, that gold necklace for the red bridesmaid is from Barney's, but looks like Dogeared. Dogeared makes beautiful (but a bit pricey for its simplicity) jewelery that I think would be perfect for any maid. I wish they had a special bridesmaid line, but you could always package it with your own card. Random thoughts!

What do you think? Are you a holiday bride? Do you think it would be worth the trouble? Do you think Santa would follow my registry?

Wow. That dress is somethin else, huh? It looks like something Belle would get married in. :) This is a really pretty winter color scheme, though. You could make it work if you took the colors and put a Moroccan spin on it. Not necessarily your style though.. (I would think.) Still, beautiful work.

The dress is uber-dramatic, which I feel a bride almost has to be for a Christmas wedding. I think it would be fun to try on, but that's about it. I think I might actually fall over in it.

Barring a trip to Morocco, you're right. I can't imagine having a Moroccan wedding for myself. Alas, I think this shade of red is lost to me.
