Tiffany Blue and Damask Wedding

small bio photo

Colors were one of the first things we picked. I bought a bridal magazine the first week we were engaged and saw a picture of a bridal party in aqua colors and it all went from there. I love damask and decided that instead of just black we will use damask accents. My theme is Modern Chic and a Classic Elegance.

Help with Shoes Brooch Needed.

I haven't been on here in a while with my crazy life of work, school and house shopping but I recently found my dress and recently saw shoes that I would love to go with.

I am in love with the Alan Pinkus shoes I found the other day.
Alan Pinkus Reese Blush
They are somewhat expensive (266 US...also its a Australian designer so shipping would be a pretty penny) and i decided i won't be spending $300 on shoes....sooo i have decided to find similar shoes and vintage brooches and make them myself (via a fabulous dye job into blush pink).

I found a similar shoe by touch ups called nona but when you girls come across similar shoes....and/or vintage brooches that would give me a similar look to the Alan Pinkus shoes can you please keep me in mind (please post a comment or email me at mmaslow12@gmail.com).

Thank you much in advance.
