So I haven't done a planning or flash thread yet, and as I now have a month to go (give or take a few days!), I thought I may as well
So, firstly, our venue - the Famous Blacksmiths Shop at Gretna Green
Invitations:
Favours are Scottish tablet and they will look like this:
But with tartan ribbon and tags like this, which my mother has made - they have our name and the date on the other side
Except for my 18 month old niece, for whom I had this bib made:
Our rings:
Mine:
His:
One of my main style inspirations, Pattie Boyd's wedding to George Harrison:
My dress:
Shoes:
I have a vintage grey fake fur to wear when we're outside, and I bought this vintage brooch to pin onto it:
Garter:
Vintage bag:
Vintage bracelet - my mother has lent me a necklace to match this, although I don't have a pic of the necklace
A cheeky pair of wedding knickers - this pic is obviously the seller's display one. As my H2B is taking my name, I've had 'property of Mr [his new surname]' embroidered on them
Hair will be something like this:
But my mum is making me a hairband to match my dress, so the effect will be something like this
Makeup - I'm going for a soft 60s style, I have used many tutorials, but these pics are pretty close to the final look, they're from rockmywedding
Bouquet (this is it in a still unfinished state - it will have tartan ribbon to match the favours)
I bought this vintage brooch to pin onto the ribbon - horseshoe for luck, thistle cos we'll be in Scotland
The only other thing I don't have a pic of is H2B's suit - but it's a classic black three piece with a fine pinstripe, and a tie with dark red to match my bouquet and his buttonhole. And I think that's it so far!
