Fall 2010 Maids

{Amsale}

would you ever put your bridesmaids in white? or pale shade of any color? i am noticing more and more maids dresses in white and pale pink--would you do it? or does the bride still get the honor of being the only one in white? here are a few new maids dresses from the Fall 2010 collections. enjoy!

Real Wedding: Hugh Forte Photography

i know we all like to see the details in these "real weddings", and the details for this wedding are beautiful, but i was especially taken back by how beautiful the bride looks--Hugh Forte Photography did an amazing job. this bride chose some fabulous maids dresses (LOVE the short dress and the stripes!) and signing the surfboard is a fantastic idea! ...btw, if you're making a "shots" list for your photographer, just say make me look like this:
