July Wedding
I am having a july 25th wedding and i feel like i have no idea what i am doing. My family is fighting over what to do and i hear so many suggestions. My sister in law says that i need to pick base colors although i had already said that i wanted summer colors so i wouldn`t be stuck to 2 colors. I am afraid i won`t like the two colors once everything is said and done and i don`t want to hate my wedding. What would be summer colors that would look nice together and what can i do that is simple but elegant for decorations. My dress is just white and i wanted to go with flowers in my hair like a ring with an updo and ribbons in the back but i am being pushed to consider a veil because my dress is sort of a cinderella dress but still simple. HELP!! what do you suggest?

Hello Ladies
I has a July 25th 2003 wedding. We had "Christmas in July" My girls had red dress (two piece with all different tops. My flowers were dark red and red roses with berries. The girls carried red roses with dark purple, greens and red berries. The groomsmen had green wreaths for bouttoniers and my husband had a single red rose with a few berries. As favors we had heavy red mercury ornaments with a ribbon saying Tessa and Michael christmas in JUly. We also had our cake different layers of stacked presents. The centerpieces were victorian cherubs holding large glass bowls filled w/ water, roses and floating candles. THEN, we cut down a large REAL christmas tree and put fake presents under it...
Hope this helps you all. Good luck
Please email me any questions.

Hi Angel,
I work with about 15 brides/couples a week from May to October, planning weddings outside and on the beach and Bay, at golf courses and restaurants.
I try to gently assure each bride that she should close her eyes, and allow herself to picture in her mind, what her dream wedding would look like ~ then to email me with those ideas, so I can help work it out to her and her groom`s satisfaction. In your case ~ write it down!
When a well meaning `mother or other` tries to press their opinions of what THEY think is right for you, you will have your `dream wedding` list to show - and ask for ideas and help making THAT happen for your wedding.
Today`s ceremonies are as varied as each couple and their personality. So feel free to create what feels right for YOU.
If I can give you any ideas, please feel free to ask. Winters are my slow time, as we plan for the new year`s wedding season.
I would look forward to hearing from you. Mary

I would suggest that you stand you ground. It might cause tension but you`ll be happier in the long run. For every other person it’s just another wedding. For you, this is the special one in a life time event that you`ve dreamed of since you were a child. Someone was pressuring my cousin to have her wedding in a certain way. I know this might sound rude, but she basically told that person that if she wanted those ideas so badly, she should go get married and incorporate them into her own wedding!
I can only wish you God’s blessings at this time and hope that whatever the outcome, your wedding will be what you’re always pictured.
