First off on many girl's wedding checklists are the colors of the wedding. I would like mine to be purple and gold. Somewhere around these colors:
Or maybe Purple and Silver! Oh boy now I'm conflicted! I had chosen purple and gold awhile ago but I really do love silver more than gold so maybe like this:
The last two colors of the first picture would be more base colors where the first two are the main ones. And if I chose to do the purple and silver, I would probably have a dark, deep purple, and a lighter lavender purple with the silver accent color. If I was super fancy and super rich I would put together a reception area similar to this. The purple and gold is the first one and the purple and silver is the second:
But since I'm neither of those, my reception room will be a little less fancy. Which is still very okay with me! The next thing I think of is Bride's Maids and a Maid of Honor. The thing with me is I have two very best friends and a bunch of other really good friends and then my sisters. Hmmm how would I set that all up? I'm still a little murky with this one but I think I'll just have two Maids of Honor and a few choice bride's maids consisting of friends and maybe my two closest sisters. Whoever you are, you're going to be part of a lucky few. ;) Outfits and coordinating will have to be planned later because I am not the fashion guru of the family.
Next is the dress for me! Thankfully my family was just recently given a BEAUTIFUL dress that my mom says I can use for my own wedding! That cuts cost down a lot, hallelujah!
It's a mix between these two dresses I think. I actually haven't even tried it on so I'm not positive on what it looks like with someone inside it but I do know it is absolutely gorgeous!

Lets see, next on my list is location. Being LDS I plan on being married in an LDS temple. There are SO many to choose from so I think I will show you my top three! First is the Laie, Hawaii Temple. Oh is so so pretty! It's not very realistic though but I still thought I would show you. Then is the San Diego Temple in California. It looks like a castle! And while it is a little more realistic, that still probably won't happen. Finally is the Brigham City, Utah Temple. It's in between my two homes, Logan and Kaysville so I think it will be perfect! This one actually is realistic so for now that is my plan. It's very very beautiful isn't it?
Then we have things like guests and invitations and decorations and photographers and a cake and food! Oh boy so many little details! All I know is I want many family members and friends there from both sides of my large family as well as his family. Invitations will most likely follow the purple and gold pattern and my one of my wonderful aunts is an amazing photographer! She did my senior pictures so I would love for her to do my engagement and wedding pictures as well. My grandma also makes wedding cakes so I would ask her to make one for me too! Thankfully they're all family so maybe they'll cut me a deal, eh? ;) As for decorations and food, I'm not that picky. My husband can choose the food because I'm sure that will interest him the most and my very artistic sister and fabulous mother have already offered to help with the rest!
It is a little weird to think about a wedding at my age. I'm only in my second semester of college and barely 18 years old. But it excites me sooooo much! I probably won't be married for AT LEAST another year so I have time to figure out all the tiny baby details and find the man for me. (I kinda need him for the whole wedding thing to happen anyways haha) Either way, I'm stoked for the future! Hooray for weddings!!! <3
Tee Hee! Oh what fun it will be...NEXT YEAR!
