Two very different approaches.
In trying to design my own dress, I have become quite frustrated. The styles that I began drawing inspiration from were far too formal and elaborate for my small September wedding. The time is early afternoon and the space is very small with very few people attending. part of me wants to go fifties vintage ballgown with polka dots like this Michelle Roth design.
However, I feel like the super-romantic feel of this one, also by Michelle Roth, has a an appropriate hint of country from the lace but it reminds me of a nineteenth century underwear costume which makes it a little whimsical and even sexy.

Summer Royale, Summer - by Maggie Sottero
I have put a $500.00 deposit down for this dress in Ivory at Thomas' Company Apparel in Butte, MT. They have offered to do the 'suit' rentals for us also. To rent shoes, pants, shirts and ties for the weekend it would be $90.00 for each guy that we rent for. I'm not sure if everybody will go for it, but I put Brian, Kevin, Dad and Dave all down for these simple ensembles. They will be all black with Brian in an Ivory stripe tie, Kevin in the cobalt blue striped tie and both Dave and Glenn in steel/black ties.
This locally owned business handled my requests and problems so well that I would like to handle all of the apparel orders and rentals through them (bridesmaids, groomsmen, father and mother of the bride and father of the groom.) The bridesmaids dresses will probably be from Alfred Angelo in cobalt blue and black, so Rachel needs to go online and look at those styles and pick her favorites. The Alred Angelo lines are so readily available that she can try on the styles that she especially likes there in Spokane, I can let Thomas' know the style and size so they can order, and then maybe my family can make a weekend trip over to Butte so they can all try on their ensembles (and just see Brian and me!!).
