What Am I Going to Wear?
Around the time Eric and I were moving toward realizing we wanted to marry each other, I read a book about Martha Washington, and its description of her wedding very much spoke to me. I will share just this little bit: “Brides wore their brightest-colored and most beautiful silk gowns. The very idea of their friends dressing in matching gowns or the groom in mournful black would have sent them into fits of laughter. The wedding party and guests, men as well as women, were like a rich, silken flower garden in the vibrant colors and combinations that suited their fancies.” We aren’t designating theme colors, rather I want it to be colorful. I plan to have as many colors as possible represented in the decor, allowing you, our guests, to look like the aforementioned flower garden in the colors that suit your fancy.
