My name is Mara, I'm a 22 year old bride from Belgium (Europe).
Me and my FI met through friends that were dating at that time. He was 17 & I was 15, non the less, love struck us. We've been togheter for over 6 years (7 on April 3th 2010).
We first set our weddingdate on April 3th, because, well he would only have to remember one date, lol.
But since we want a gardenparty and the weather is pretty unpredictab
le in Belgium, we decide on May 22th...
I would love to tell you all about the proposal & the engagement, but I've been engaged for oooh so long that I can't really remember :S How bad is that, huh?
OMG, I'm horrible I know, but I changed my mind the last & final time on my dress.
The dress is ordered and should be here around January 21st :) yeeey!
It's the ultimate fairytale weddinggown (mine is white though), it's going to be gorgeous.
Me in it (not the best pics) more to come soon:
The final result on the big day :)
My FI got me a new engagement ring with matching weddingband :) Woohoo! Loves it.
I LOVE the bridesmaid dress I found for my sister/witness/only bridesmaid :D
It's pink, and it's a nice change from her gothic clothes she wears all the time, lol.
I ordered it from Milanoo.com also, I really love everything I've purchased frim them. Just don't be fooled by the sizes and get everything custom-made if you decide to order something. It's without any added expenses & definitly worth it!
Loves it :)
On the day off:
SHOE BLING
Me and my sister (MOH) blinged out my shoes :)
I wanted the magenta Paris Hilton shoes, but they are completly sold out in my size :(
So this is my diy attempt, what do you think?? We used hotfix rhinestones and the appliance that we already had at home :D
I think I'm still going to put a brooch on top of the shoes.
UPDATE: Pics of the shoes with the brooches :)
