So for all you Hitchers who enjoy a challenge, i thought I'd pose this one.
I need a convincing mood/ideas board to share with my hubby-to-be. At the moment (and unless I change my mind - am trying not to) I'm wearing a champagne colour (although it's called Dark Ivory) Pronovias dress. It's actually a warm cream colour. See here:
Our two adult BMS have seen a dress they like but are pondering on the idea of having it in opposite colourways - one in chocolate brown with a capuccino sash, the other in capuccino with a chocolate sash. Both are c.6 ft tall so can carry off most things!
We have a semi Chinese/English fusion theme but H2B is now not so keen on the nehru collar jacket and a bit fed up that he doesn't have an awful lot of choice. Tails are not appropriate for the venue or the 'feel' of our day but he may go for a dark brown Prince Edward or frock coat.
He has dark hair and almost olive skin (Chinese ancestry coming through). I am pale skinned and blonde. Our two BMs (our two adult daughters are one of each - his daughter is blonde, mine is dark haired).
Would like to include orchids somewhere (for obvious reasons) and particularly like the Singapore orchid which is a deep magenta colour. Unfortunately, although the girls had originally said they'd like to wear magenta, my dress is very cream in colour and not sure it will work in block format. However, the magenta might work as an accent colour.
This is not a first wedding for either of us and it will be a civil ceremony outdoors. Not going mad with flowers and may not even have a traditional bouquet - possibly a fan with some tiny flowers on it or possibly not flowers at all!
So how do we bring this all together? Any/all ideas very welcome please [Sorry if you've got info overload but I thought it might be helpful]
