Hoosier glass

I found out last Monday that wedding bee was a no go, again. It wasn't that big of a deal, but I wanted some time off from blogging (hence the empty week of blogging). It was nice to not have to think about the next post for a while. Until yesterday when I came up with a great idea.

Mail boxes are the new...

birdcage!
The birdcage-the classic wedding card holder.

I can't deny its elegance, and I might be over exaggerating with the mail boxes. Yet I just can't get over the rustic/antique feel of the mailbox below.

Who knew you could be so excited for a little piece of tulle?

I might have been tracking the shipping of my veil all week. It might also have come in yesterday, and I might have left work early (don't worry I had overtime racked up) in order to get in some pictures before Mr. Camrah came home.

I decided to buy an elbow length, drop veil from the veilshop.com. I got the champagne colored tulle (described as a creamy version of their light ivory) and decided on the cut edge without any extra detailing. I probably could have made the veil myself for cheaper, but I was worried that I wouldn't be able to cut the edge exactly straight. I decided a straight edge is more important then saving a few extra bucks, and at $26 with tax and shipping, my veil wasn't really expensive anyways. Here she is. (Excuse the crummy lighting; the sun had already set for the day.)

Moms

I'm just going to put it out there. I've decided to nix corsages.
I just wasn't feeling the corsages for the moms, and I don't think the one grandma that might be able to make it would want one. My mom wasn't particularly excited about going sans corsage, but she's the least confrontational person I know. So, she said her piece about corsages and let it go. Of course she doesn't know about my alternatives to the corsage.

No moms or aunts past this point please!

There's so much beauty in the world

Who isn't in love with hair flowers?
They are so elegant and beautiful. I love the new headband trend too.
Did anyone else swoon over these lace necklaces?
