Maid of Honor dress, colors and more

Leaps and bounds were made this week in our wedding planning, thanks to my sister, and Maid of Honor Hannah being in town all week. I took the day off of work on Friday and we dedicated the whole day to wedding planning. First we tried on dresses at, of course, my favorite store, Norstrom. We had a great time, and even my mom started the search for her wedding day outfit. While we had fun, and found some very pretty dresses, we did not find anything that we loved. So the next morning we headed over to J Crew where we were delightfully surprised by the selection of dresses for Hannah, not only did we find one dress we found two, one for her to wear to the rehearsal dinner and one for the big day, she looked so lovely in both we couldn't decide. During our search for the dress I also found myself defining our "wedding colors" our first color, purple, was the suggestion of Phil, and the other three colors, ivory, gold and blush, were added over the week and I picked out details for the event. Hannah's Maid of Honor dress is a beautiful deep purple, and we hope to find some gold and blush accents for her. Now that I have our wedding colors figured out, finding decorations for the venue should come easily.

Not only did Hannah and I take on the task of finding her the perfect dress we also met with the invitation designer, and the chef who will be creating a delicious meal. after meeting with them I am extremely excited to continue meeting with vendors and feel like wedding planning is in full swing, I only have 10,000 more items on my "to do" list.
