Hello I'm Adriana... I'm getting married to my best friend and my love on November 08, 2009 (yes in a few months) I'm needless to say very excited, nervous and crazy... I'm fairly new at this, so forgive me if my profile isn't as full and updated as most are... (any advise is welcomed) :)

We met on April 28, 2007 at a Bar, we were both there to support our good friend Saul and his band. We are both good friends with Saul and by change and or faith :) we ended up hanging out the whole night, talking and dancing... My FH invited myself and my cousin to his Bday party the following week and I wasn't too sure if we would go, but we did. We show up it's full of people and good vibes he's suuuuch a HOST, loves to have people around and BBQ whenever possible. Mind you we only talked and hung out for a bit (since there was a lot of things going on that day) A week later i get a txt msg (no i didn't give him my number, Saul provided that for him) saying thank you so much for attending my bday you girls are awesome... so we ended up texting back and forth and he invited me to a Dodger game, I said "sure why not"... After the Dodger game we were pretty much hooked...

since our wedding in November we decided to use the fall color scheme:

chocolate brown, burnt orange and cream....

my MOH will be wearing this dress

and the 4 BM's will wear this dress:

their bouquets will be white, ivory with splashes of brown :)

My adorable little god-daughter Lyrah will be my flower girl... she's about a year and six months... I found this dress on mygirldress.com and really loved it...

this is our color palet :)

so here are some ideas for the flowers...

my bouquet: of course with a few more roses and YES some stephan-somthing those pretty white flowers that look like stars with some bling in the middle :)

here's my ACTUAL BOUQUET!!!! i LOOOOOVEEEEDDDD it... turned out even better than the picture... my florist did an AMAZING job... (Ninfa'sflowersandgifts) looooved them!!!!

the girls bouquets: just picture white, creams and splashes of brown (since their dresses are burnt orange i want to contrass the colors a bit)

the girls bouquets were perfect also!!!!

for center pieces here are some ideas... not sure yet... all in orange, soft yellows and creams

here are the actual flowers!!! LOVED them... our florist was the BEST!!! so happy we found them...

we got our cake (actually we picked out and ordered our cake a while ago) but i hadn't had a chance to upload the picture :) so here it is.... same style 4 tier cake with the ribbon in brown and the little dot's in orange...

so at the last minute... we changed our cake design!!! we loved the top design but when dropping off the cake topper we saw this little number and just new this would look great with our decor... so glad we changed it.. this was our cake!!!

 (ahhh you can't see the A but i'll find another picture with it)

and here is the cake topper only as an "A" for my new last name :)
