Bridesmaids


Having been a bridesmaid myself, and so far-not a bride (soon...very soon xD), I figured I'd tell my prep work for what I'm doing for my three bridesmaids. Keep in mind that before budget cuts I had this huge thing planned. I was going to have the top five females in my life (outside of my mom) standing up with me.

Light purple
 Since all of the budget cuts (I really hate those words...), I figured that I would have a classy yet...my way kind of wedding. I did want it to be semi-formal, but...alas the two words I hate saying...happened. So, I figured I'd ask the three ladies which they would rather do. Find dresses similar in color and style (like the picture above) or have me pick out a dress and they all wear the same.

Cornflower Blue
 The females have spoken! Similar dresses it is! :) Which is totally fine by me. I don't want anyone, even myself, to go bankrupt on this wedding. I figured that I'd post on here the colors of our wedding, so that the ladies have an idea of which one they'd like to do. Since there is three of them, I figured...Silver is pretty...well...silver and you can't mess that up, right?
Style I like #1
The reason behind the colors, outside of our fantasic theme, is well...they are our favorite colors. Purple. Since it is a Spring wedding (even though in Tennessee it'll already feel like summer), must go with the lighter colours. I think that the Light Purple is lovely.

Spencer's favorite colour is Blue...so, to go along with the Kingdom Hearts colours we're going to go with a Cornflower Blue. It's light, the same colour of blue (if not a little lighter) than the blue that's in the logo for KH. Not to mention, it'll help compliment the purple and help the silver stand out (and Lydia...here's your gem colour XD). 

Style I like #2
Style I like #3
Shadow
To also go along with the whole Kingdom Hearts theme, we've also thought it'd be awesome to, instead of bouquets and paying more money than should be for flowers, we'd give the bridesmaids Shadows to carry. Instead of just having the little guys in their normal nothing, we'd also decorate them to that person's favorite world. For example: Lydia is planning on either doing Wonderland or Halloween Town while Wendy is going to go with Agrabah. Because Messy is the Maid-of-honor, she's going going to get a Shadow. As cute as they are, I know. But instead she'll get a Moogle.

Moogle
They are super cute too! The Shadows are solely meant for the Kingdom Hearts series, where as the Moogles have come to play from different Final Fantasy games. Depending on the game, depends on what the Moogles do. From Final Fantasy VII they were part of an "arcade game" that you were able to play and later a Summon. I don't think they were in FFVIII that much, it's been a while since I've played that one, and in IX they helped you along the story line.

Okay, enough on the cute plushies(and my nerdiness), I figured that as part of their gift from me would be the plushies. I know that two of the girls are not gamers and wouldn't fully get the plushie behind, so I'm coming up with other ideas to get each girl for their personalities. Make it a little more personal. :)

So, there you have it...my prep work for the bridesmaids...Like I said, would have had more if it wasn't for the blankity blanks.
