Grey wedding fashion

Scott has always had a thing for grey suits and this was the one thing he ‘insisted’ upon for our wedding day - that he wanted to wear a grey three-piece suit and have his groomsmen in grey suits aswell. This was fine by me as i’m not too keen on black suits for weddings anyway and we certainly aren’t tux kind of people! 

Then when looking at all the different bridesmaid dresses out there I realized that I wanted my gorgeous girls in something a little bit different from the boring pink or burgundy dresses on sale everywhere - my first thought was LBDs but I have changed my mind… so in comes the LGD (little grey dress of course!).

 My maids all have very different skin tones and hair colours and body shapes so a fairly neutral colour like grey will suit everyone and I just fell in love with the gorgeous Melissa Sweet dresses. 

For the flower-girls I will be sticking to white but having grey sashes to tie in with the older girls. 

And of course I won’t be getting married without a pair of laboutins on my feet - and these silver/grey ones fit the bill entirely- so glamourous its no wonder they are called ‘Hollywood’!

Simple, Summery Bridesmaid Dresses

No matter where we end up getting married there is one thing that Scott and I are definite about - and that is the fact that we want a warm weather wedding. 

Whenever I picture our wedding I see bright, summery colours - yellows, blues and greens mixed with flashes of bright, clean whites. For this reason we have decided against traditional, formal bridesmaid dresses and gone instead for light summer dresses. Of course I've been getting my thinking cap on to find the perfect dresses for the perfect girls in my life :-)

These dresses are all from Asos.com and I love them all for different reasons - the turquoise blue is such a perfect colour (not to mention one of my favourites!), the yellow is so summery and fun - I love all of the back strap details and think this sort of dress would be perfect at a backyard wedding BBQ.

To be honest though - although I love those two dresses the white would definitely be the most versatile - particularly as it would be possible to buy them up and dye them different colours according to the colour scheme. Seeing as we havn't settled on a definite colour scheme this would be very beneficial to us.

And the best bit? Not one of these dresses costs more than £50!
