I'd love to meet you all, know what your colors are, inspiration, theme, what your gown looks like, where you are getting married, and any other details you may wish to share. Together we can all plan the most perfect December weddings!

We are having a private Christmas wedding in Natchez, MS at a fabulous historic mansion now an Inn. Can't wait!! We will have about 12 guests ( immediate family and witnesses). It's 3 hours from our hometown. So a mini destination wedding. Our colors are pale pink, burgundy, ivory, and rose gold. My wedding gown is a warm, pale pink named Meena by Martin Thornburg. My shoes are Jimmy Choo's that I bought on FARFETCH for a bargain. I love how sparkly they are. My purse is sitting in my skirt ruffles and its by Mary Frances ( that is the true color of my dress, more warm pink than in designer pics). I'm a veil designer so I'm hoping to have a hatbox cake similar to this, but a bit more elaborate. Ha! Ha! We are planning a 3:00pm ceremony. We are going to mini-moon at this Inn in their gorgeous bridal suite. Planning a very large black-tie wedding reception for May. Here are a few photos of what we have going on so far for our Christmas Wedding. I have fallen in love with that bouquet. Another WW bride had it as her photo and she kindly sent it to me.

The fur-baby pictured is my 13 1/2 year old service dog named Gaston. He will be our Pup Of Honor, God-willing.

I hope we all become the best of friends during this most exciting and stressful times of our lives!! 😂 Big hug to each of you!! 💕💖

    We’re getting married at a church. Our reception will be held at the same place. We wanted a place where we could have our own vendors. I’m from the country so our menu will include Pulled Pork & Beef Brisket. I had a lot of inspiration from Pinterest. Hers a list of pictures we’re using for our wedding!!

    1st: Picture is our church sanctuary.
    2nd: Picture is our wedding invitation.
    3rd: Is our wedding cake...except I added 15 additional cupcakes.
    4th: I’m using this same concept with exception of I’m using white/ivory roses and our candles will be in votives. (I bought 32 wines glasses in 3 different sizes, candles, votives all from our local Dollar Store)
    5th: This decor inspiration I’m doing is almost the same as the picture, but instead of wood I’m using a gold charger plate (also bought from the Dollar Store). This will be set in the middle of our tables at our reception. Picture number 4 will be on each side of the table.
    6th: This decor piece will be used to decorate some of our pews at our ceremony.
    7th: So I don’t want to use “traditional” wedding favors, so we’re giving these our instead. So people can place a Soldier somewhere and remember to pray/think about our American soldiers.
    8th: Being that our wedding is to honor my FH I also decided to have a American white table placed at our wedding. This piece will be at our reception so everyone can see it as they enter our reception.
    9th: This is my dress (sorry it wrinkled, I just brought it home to try on). I’ll wear Tieks as my wedding shoes. I don’t have a picture of them. I don’t want to wear heels and have my feet screaming later. Plus I can use them after or wedding on both of our honeymoons.
    10th: This is a picture of my girls and moms wedding dresses. They all flow into our Black/Gold wedding colors. My mom is wearing Navy to tie into my FH dress blues. (He’s wear his service uniform).
    11th: Okayy last photo....(I promise) I’m using simple white/ivory roses for our wedding. We didn’t want to spend a ton of money on flowers so we’re buying them from Sam’s Club...

    Hi everyone!! So sorry I've not been staying in contact better. My health is just so poor at the moment, it's an effort to write. Keep the group going, please!! I'm going to have good and bad days. I'm waiting on my invitation suite samples to arrive next week. So that's exciting and doesn't require much energy. Yay!! Ha! Ha! Let us know what plans you all have for the weekend. Cake tasting, engagement shoot, venue viewing, picking out stationary, your gowns? Puppy kisses from Gaston!! xoxo

    This is the actual venue Kress Terrace and my tables will be set just like the pic with the black and white linens/stripped table runners. My dress is Vera Wand. I can't post a pic because FH gets on WW sometimes. My bridesmaid will wear a black velvet dress just like this red one but black. Here is a pic of my cake. And here is the dress I will change into for my NYE wedding!

    Everything is lovely!! Beautiful venue. The bridesmaid dress didn't upload. Would love to see it. I love velvet. Did you decide to add a train to your reception gown? Have you chosen your invitations? Shoes?

    I know!!! 😂 I'm already getting excited!! Ha! Ha! I just hope I don't forget anything. Planning a wedding in December and the reception in May is keeping me on my toes. So much easier, I think, to do everything in one day. Our reception is a destination reception for 99% of my guests. I'm not complaining, though, because I feel blessed to marry this wonderful man God has brought into my life. Have a wonderful evening everyone!! xoxo

    I think black/gold/white is very elegant for a wedding!! Please don't think I'm strange, but I'm a Saints fan and those are our colors. 😊 Are you wearing a veil? What is your hair and make-up inspiration?

    I am wearing a cathedral length veil and my inspiration is Harlem Nights/Great Gatsby/1920's Hair and makeup. Not the clothes just hair and makeup

    Sorry, here's the bridesmaids dress but in black. I haven't decided if I'm gonna add a train or not and I haven't decided on the shoes yet or my invitations. We have just finished building a new home and we close at the end of May, so I will wait until then to decide on my invites. But it's killing me not being able to order them now
