It’s true, I love “antiquing.” My mama and I frequently make complete days out of rummaging through the traveling shows looking for unique treasures (one of my best scores is a vintage chandelier for $15!). So when I read that Rachel + Stephen incorporated family heirlooms throughout their decor, I must admit I was a bit jealous! I love how they carefully weaved pieces from relatives into their furniture and centerpieces as well as incorporating meaningful little details throughout their entire wedding. R + S are definitely a couple after my own heart!

Big hugs to Nathan Westerfield for bringing their big day to life!

I love how Rachel used fun details to add personality to her gorgeous classic gown. Those Toms look like they’re made for dancing the night away!

It was about the third place I had gone to look for a dress. It was the only one I found that I liked and it was the only one I tried on. It was too perfect! I knew before I even put it on that I was in love with it.

Yes we did do a “first look.” I never thought I wanted to do that. I wanted to keep with the tradition of not seeing each other, but as the wedding got closer, the more anxious I got and I knew that I would need to see him before the wedding to calm my nerves. It was the best decision ever.

I can’t let BDK see this post or he’ll completly agree with Stephen on the best detail of this wedding!

Our favorite detail of the wedding was: (From the groom) The shotgun that my groomsmen got me, and the knives I got them. Take that for wedding presents! (From the bride) The antique accents that appeared everywhere.

We had homemade apple butter and clover honey in little mason jars for favors. Instead of having a groom’s cake, we had a groom’s table that included three types of homemade cobblers and vanilla ice cream. Old quilts made by relatives were used as the backdrop for the photo booth as well as to drape over the old wooden pew that we used for gifts. Old Southern doors and doorframes were used as the backdrop for the ceremony along with old chandeliers and picture frames.

How did the two of you meet? Tell us your story. We met in third grade at church right after I, Rachel, moved to the Nashville area. We grew up going to school and church together throughout elementary, middle and high school and even into college.
Describe the proposal. I had just gotten home from school for Christmas break and Stephen said he wanted to take me out on a date. We went to a nice restaurant in downtown Nashville and afterward we went to see The Nutcracker at TPAC. Afterward, we went back to his house. He had built a pergola with lights and flowers strung all through the top, and had hung pictures of special places that meant a lot to us through the history of our relationship. He then got down on one knee and proposed, and I said yes! He had invited all our friends and family to my house to celebrate, which was also a surprise!
In what month did you get married? July
How many guests attended your wedding? 500-600
Tell us about some of the songs you used throughout your wedding. Our prelude was “Beautiful Things” by Gungor and “A Place Only You Can Go” by Needtobreathe. We played “Blower’s Daughter” by Damien Rice as we seated the grandparents. The processional was to “Best/Rest” by Bon Iver, the entrance of the bride was “Your Hand in Mine” by Explosions in the Sky. We did communion to “Rock of Ages” by Brooks Ritter and recessed to “Hoppipolla” by Sigur Ros. Our first dance was to “That’s How Strong My Love Is” by Otis Redding, the father/daughter dance was to “Tootie Fruitie” and the mother/son dance was to “My Girl.”
Describe your wedding flowers: They were blush pink peonies and cream roses.
Describe your wedding cake or dessert: We had a mixture of yellow cake and almond cake with natural white icing.
What Southern details or traditions did you include in your celebration? What was Southern about your wedding? We incorporated antiques from relatives for all the furniture and centerpieces as well as the little details throughout the wedding. We had homemade apple butter and clover honey in little mason jars for favors. Instead of having a groom’s cake, we had a groom’s table that included three types of homemade cobblers and vanilla ice cream. Stephen got a shotgun as the wedding gift from all of his groomsmen and he gave all the groomsmen hunting knives. Old quilts made by relatives were used as the backdrop for the photo booth as well as to drape over the old wooden pew that we used for gifts. Old Southern doors and doorframes were used as the backdrop for the ceremony along with old chandeliers and picture frames.
What is the one thing you are most happy you splurged on? (From the bride) The favors. I’m glad everyone got to take something home with them. (From the groom) The little accents and decorations. They meant a lot to Rachel.
What was your most memorable moment about your wedding day? We both agree that it was seeing each other for the first time.
What advice do you have for folks currently planning a wedding? Try not to stress when you get just a couple of weeks away from the wedding. It will all come together and stressing about it takes away from the joy you’re supposed to have.

Burgundy & Tan Wine Lover’s Wedding {Molinski Photo}

Beautiful Garnet and Tan Wedding  ♥

Michelle and Adam’s wine and cheese themed wedding in burgundy and tan was held at Old Daley Inn on Crooked Lake Averill Park. Adam and Michelle host wine and cheese parties for all occasions. It’s their “thing” as both of them love wine and cheese individually and together. In fact, they often import cheeses, so the theme for their wedding just fell into place. A natural starting point was using the burgundy / garnet color of red wine as their focal point. Complete with burgundy dresses, flowers by PoppyTree Florals, tan suits, flower filled wine bottles, planning by Every Little Details, photography by Molinski Photo  and lots of personal touches, their day was filled with beauty. And wait untill you see the cute flower girl in her cart being pulled by the ringbearer – it’s just too precious!

The bridesmaids had tan pashminas and were gifted garnet earrings along with monogrammed matching clutches containing all of the wedding day necessities (floss, sewing kit, tissues, lip gloss, blotting sheets, etc.). The groomsmen were gifted watches and also had superhero cufflinks.

“We had a wine blending ceremony during our marriage vows,” shares Michelle, “With personal touches throughout the venue and we made nearly every item ourselves! It was so much fun!”

Burgundy & Tan Wine Lover’s Wedding

Love Story: Michelle was working as a Registered Nurse in Newport, RI and went on a date with a nice guy her age. The date seemed to have gone well, but ended without any “spark.” The young man and Michelle parted ways to their separate cars and waved goodbye. To Michelle, this seemed odd. She called a childhood friend for advice and to share her date details. This friend said she had a male friend over who might be able to give her insight. Adam, the groom, was that male friend. He patiently heard all of the date’s details and stated he thought the other guy was interested in Michelle but that she’d be better off if she dated him (Adam referring to himself) instead. Michelle was caught offguard by such a bold statement. Adam and Michelle spoke for HOURS and kept in touch. Adam followed up with Michelle a few days later to see if the other young man asked her out again and while they were talking, that young man did contact Michelle, but she was too interested in Adam to even notice the phone ring. Adam and Michelle used Skype, texting, and phone calls until they met in person a month later. Adam was in grad school at the time. Though the first phone call seemed like an instant connection, they really knew that they had found “the one” when they met in person a month later and have been together ever since. Their dating relationship was mostly long-distance and even through Adam’s clinicals in 3 different states. Michelle moved to Adam’s hometown in NY and got her own apartment and established herself as Adam graduated and started working as well. Soon Adam proposed at a local pumpkin patch/apple orchard overlooking the fall foliage and they wed a year later.

Wedding Dress: I had my custom made, a boat-neck lace dress with a fitted fit-n-flare bodice.  I find lace to be absolutely timeless and stunning and I love boat-necklines and cap sleeves. My mother-in-law purchased the exact lace when they were making the dress and custom made the veil to match. The overall timeframe from design to finish was approximately 9 months. I had the dress fitted to perfection by my childhood seamstress family friend. She has fitted every formal dress I’ve ever worn, including all high school proms!

Hair and Make Up: I wanted to look like me, but a glamorous version. I had airbrush makeup because I swear by it for all weddings/formal occasions. My hair was inspired by a timeless, natural updo and done by my hairdresser in Rhode Island who drove 4 hours to do my wedding day hair. We’d been talking about my dream wedding for years, she had to be the one to do my hair and she was of course, invited to the wedding!

Floral Design: Poppy Tree Florals, our floral artist, was amazing. I told her colors and that I liked soft greens and VOILA the most amazing wedding flowers I could ever imagine! My goal was to have refreshing scents by including herbs: rosemary, sage, eucalyptus, etc. and still have flowers that reflected the autumn season.

Groom Styling: The groom wore a fitted tan Express suit with champagne tie. His Citizen watch was given to him by the bride for their wedding day and had a personalized engraving. The groom also designed his wedding band himself.

Bridal Party Styling: Each bridesmaid chose their own hairstyle and wore nude heels of their choosing. The v-neck J Crew knee-length garnet bridesmaid dresses were a satin-cotton blend with pockets. Their bouquets were a burgundy-autumn blend. The groomsmen wore tan Express suits with burgundy ties and burgundy socks.

Wedding Ceremony:  I walked down the aisle to Canon in D to live acoustic guitar. We had a wine-blending ceremony instead of a unity candle. We blended a red and white wine and drank from the blend to reflect the various aspects we bring to our relationship. A small amount remained separate of both the red and white wine to reflect our individuality as well. The ceremony song during the wine ceremony was When I Say I DO by Matthew West sung by Silver Arrow Band. This song reflects Michelle and Adam’s Christian faith, but is also romantic and subtle. The ceremony area was minimally decorated with two floral pieces on stone pillars and scattered flower petals down the aisle. The ceremony was officiated by Rev. Stanley White of Preston, CT who drove 3 hours for the wedding. Rev. Stan performed Michelle’s Baptism, 1st Communion, and Confirmation. It’s a very unique experience to have the same minister perform all of these ceremonies.

Wedding Readings: My brother read a poem written by our grandmother which was not only beautiful but extremely meaningful as Adam and Michelle purchased a home at the same time as their wedding (within a few weeks). Michelle’s grandmother passed away a few years ago and never was able to meet Adam. It was so special to feel her presence when Will (bride’s brother) read this poem. Her grandmother’s book of poetry is one of the items her grandmother left to Michelle when she died. Michelle’s father (the son of said grandmother) had no idea this was going to be read and it was an emotional, special moment during the ceremony. The poem was written in 1941.

Wedding Ceremony Details: Each and every centerpiece was unique at the reeception. Adam and Michelle collected wine bottles for months prior to the wedding and the other centerpieces were crates that were painted and designed by the bride and groom. The crates were brand new and were aged with vinegar and brillo pads. The logo was designed by the groom’s sister using the bride and groom’s initials. Their goal image was to reflect wine crates. Cork stands with their instagram #cheersadamichelle were scattered as well as quotes, photoframes, and personal touches. Michelle had provided vases for the bridesmaid’s bouquets to display on the pie dessert table. there were personal signs everywhere throughout the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. Adam made the placecard tabletop himself and all of the corks for placecards were cut and made by the bride and groom to reflect their wine and cheese theme. The bride even made the wreaths that hung on the door of the venue!

Advice for Brides:

• Truthfully, the biggest lesson I learned was to let go. I had to trust the vendors to do their job. I also learned that nothing is perfect. Our seating chart was meticulous but somehow two tables were reversed. The wreaths I made were hung upside down. The groom’s boutenierre was burgundy instead of white. Contracts and wedding planners hold all the details, but everyone is human. The truth is the point of the day is marrying the love of your life. We loved every minute of our wedding. We danced the night away and tried not to get caught up in details or drama.
• We did a first look (which I would recommend to everyone) so we got many photos done prior to the ceremony. There are many reasons we did that but it’s so worth it because we could even enjoy our cocktail hour!
• If you can do it yourself, do it. We made all our own placecards, programs, gift bags, etc. We made it a fun activity and never dreaded it. We saved a ton on those small things that add up and were able to put that money toward “splurge” items.
• We researched everything we did to know when we were getting a good deal and we had a budget from the start-a realistic one, not a daydream one. We had a list of priorities and had to compromise with each other. It’s a lot of work, but so fun and we’d do it all over again!

Wedding dresses for fat brides 2021

The choice of a wedding dress is always difficult: after all, every bride on her wedding day strives to look unsurpassed, which means that the outfit is looking for the appropriate one – the most beautiful, the most luxurious. But if your clothing size is not 42-44 and the volumes are far from the notorious 90-60-90, the choice of a wedding dress becomes much more complicated. Not only that, both salons and shops, as a rule, attach models for slender girls. It is also important to choose the right dress – in order to demonstrate all the advantages of a non-standard figure and at the same time skillfully hide the flaws.

Wedding dresses for plump brides 2021 photos Pronovias

Wedding dresses for plump brides, which are offered by fashion designers, are quite capable of disguising full hips or belly, transferring attention to lush breasts and feminine shoulders. The best choice for this would be an A-line dress with a corset bodice. At the same time, the top can be seductively open – strapless, and asymmetric – on one shoulder, and classic – with sleeves, V-neck, or on two straps.A-line dresses are suitable for any figure, but they look most advantageous on brides with a pear figure: a one-piece cut, a widening skirt and vertical relief seams perfectly emphasize the neckline and accentuate the waist, delicately hiding plump hips. It is not for nothing that these graceful and beautiful dresses are called “princesses”.

Dresses in Greek style look great on puffy brides. Especially it is worth paying attention to this model for girls with an “apple” or “rectangle” figure.The high waist perfectly masks the flaws of the figure, and the cascading flowing fabric gives the models elegance and tenderness. Another fashionable nuance is asymmetry. Models in the Empire style “on one shoulder” not only look interesting and original, but also perfectly emphasize the line of the chest.

The sexiest and most seductive mermaid wedding dresses. It is believed that only brides with an ideal figure can wear them. But, as it turned out, the “mermaid” is also suitable for plump girls with an hourglass figure.The main thing is to know the secret: the flaring of the skirt – the very “tail” – should start from the middle of the thigh or slightly higher, but in no case below the knee! And, of course, you should definitely take care of corrective underwear.

Wedding dresses for stout tall girls can be with a spectacular train. So that it does not “burden” the image of the bride, choose dresses with a small light train.

But what should be avoided when choosing a plus size wedding dress is all sorts of voluminous details – multi-layered flounces, complex multiple draperies, ruffles, bows and excessive shiny decor.

90,000 What does the color of the wedding dress mean?

A wedding dress is one of the most important details of the holiday atmosphere, and every bride wants to be the most beautiful on this day.

But not everyone wants to wear a standard snow-white dress. Let’s figure out what the colors of the dress mean and whether it is worth believing the numerous signs.
In Russia, for a long time, brides wore a red dress embroidered with ornaments, designed to protect the newlywed from the evil eye and evil spirits at such a moment, and it was not really a dress, but rather a sundress.

After a while, the tradition of a white wedding dress came from Europe, which meant the purity and innocence of the bride, it was worn only at the girl’s first marriage.When re-marrying, wearing a white dress was unacceptable.

After the appearance of the “white dress”, the bride in red symbolized tensions in the family. This is how superstitions and omens are composed …

But, besides red, there are many beautiful colors, how are things with them

People have come up with their own interpretation of each of the common dress colors.

Gold and silver dresses meant wealth and prosperity in the house, but at the same time for a short family life.

Pink and coral were awarded two versions.

According to the first, such an outfit promises tenderness and long love, according to the second – financial problems.

The noble violet color is a harbinger of the “secret love magic” that a couple should have.

The blue wedding dress foreshadowed the husband’s indifference to the wishes and requests of his wife.

But at the same time, the blue dress meant sincere and honest years of marriage.

The bride in a green wedding dress was a sign that love will be long, but the family will face problems in a money dress.It was believed that green is the color of modesty and humility.

Delightful black was categorically not recognized in Europe as a color for a wedding dress. He, according to signs, meant widowed, sadness, unhappy marriage or betrayal. However, modern wedding designers, including Oscar de la Renta and Vera Wong, have been presenting black dresses in their collections for more than one season, which conquer fashionistas all over the world. Warm colors are also not held in high esteem.

A yellow wedding dress, for example, takes a family only 6 years, and a brown one marks an imminent divorce with a division of property.

Cream dress or Champagne dress – for adultery.

Only orange color, which is a symbol of respect, stood out as a pleasant omen.

When choosing a color for a dress, you should first of all be confident in your chosen one, because no signs can destroy true love, and vice versa – if there are no feelings, then even the most snow-white dress will not save.
