Simple. Rustic. Fun.

those three words are what i based this whole wedding scheme upon. jace and i are both two people who enjoy the simple things in life...
.kisses. holding hands. going on dates. romantic songs. and of course, laughing.
on my wedding day the two things i am most excited for are--
1. get married to by best friend.
and..
2. to see our closest friends and family come together and have a great time.

so, when choosing our wedding outfits we wanted something practical. something fun. something a bridesmaid, and groomsmen can wear again. so, simplicity it was. the boys will be in jeans, the girls in sundresses. here are a few pictures i snapped while back home a couple of weekends ago. thank god for amazing brothers who like to play dress up, over, and over, and over...


being silly. that's what little brothers are for.



just love it.

and..talk about thrifty. the girls dresses, are from VS for $85.00, they were asked to wear some rustic boots, new or old, i am not picky! and the necklaces were made by my personal attendent, hannah honeyman, as our wedding gift. they turned out great, and tie the little bit of burnt orange into the whole scheme. so total for girls--right around $100 for the whole outfit, and it's all something you can wear again!!

the boys--we got the jeans on-sale at kohls, for around $33.00. the off-white shirt was around $17 from kohls, the brown sweater vests from jcpenny's, were $10.00, the brown loafers are from ae, and are around $15.00 (thanks to a very watchful mother, we caught them on-sale!), and last, my very favorite touch to the outfits...the cute socks. $3.00 at old-navy. can't wait for the photo oppurtunities with those.

so-i'm very happy. everyone's dressed for under $100, can't beat it.

what were your big wedding bargains?
