This wedding should be just gorgeous and I'm so very proud of how things are turning out. The bride has been an absolute dream to work with and allowed me a lot of freedom which I think always makes for a better finished product.
The wedding will take place in mid-October in Door County, Wisconsin. I've never been, but I've heard it's lovely and will be a picturesque place for a fall wedding.
The pieces follow the theme of 1930s vintage glamour with a main color of truffle brown and accents in golds and pinks. All of the maids (6 of them) are fair complected and several have red hair, so to play off of that I used lots of shades of brown and gold feathers and velvet leaves in chocolate, a sunset-y pink, and a varigated gold. The bride's dress is ivory with light beading and her headpiece features an attached ivory birdcage veil (most proud of this). The maids' pieces will also have veils in a shiny gold lightweight knit. I've yet to attach those veils as the idea makes me a little nervous, but I am hoping for courage when the time comes. That's tomorrow...
And as a post script- after having surgery again last week I'll be glad to finally finish this set after procrastinating on it waiting for inspiration to strike.
(For another wedding I have scheduled- I'll have plenty of time again. The vintage rocker chic wedding for Taylor isn't until Nov. of 2010! Lucky me!!!)
