Bride
I bought my dress on my first day shopping! I was with my mom, my sister, my aunt, and my fiance's mom. I tried on several different dresses and this was the only dress that each one of us loved so we knew it was the one!
It is by Essense of Australia and it is nothing at all that I would have picked out for myself, but I love it!

My shoes are from Hey Lady. I should be able to wear them all day and night and still be comfortable! I think adding the pop of color will be a fun touch.
My mom purchased my wedding jewelry as a gift to me; earrings and a bracelet from the MEG jewelry line. They haven't come in yet, but I will post pictures as soon as they do!
Maid of Honor
I am only having one attendant, my sister as my Maid of Honor. This is the dress she chose. It is from the Love collection by Enzoani and will be in the color shown, which is called Blueberry.
Her dress came in and, while they claim it i in the color Blueberry, the dress is actually a deep deep purple color. The picture to the left has more blue in it. This is not a bad thing, as it still looks great with the color scheme, but it was a complete surprise to us!

Groom and Best Man
We decided to buy a suit rather than rent a tux. My FI and his Best Man are ordering custom suits in dark gray from Bachrach.
The Groom will be wearing a white shirt with a white/ivory/gray striped tie along with a white pocket square.
The Best Man will be wearing a white shirt with a deep purple tie (to match the Maid of Honor's dress) and a silver pocket square.
Additionally, we decided to have the boys (Groom, Best Man, and Ushers) wear suspenders as a fun accessory! I found these great suspenders that have subtle polka dots on them - they were on the daily deal website Rue La La and I got a great price! The groom will have a pair in white. All others are in black.

Dads and Ushers
We have asked that our Dads, as well as my fiance's two brothers (who will be serving as Ushers) wear black or dark gray suits. We provided them each a white shirt and a purple striped tie. The Ushers also have the black suspenders.
