Part II: We Bought My Band!

Our weekend was relaxing and laid back, but now I realize how much we actually got done. We picked my wedding band! I've had my eye on this baby for awhile, and I love how it looks just a little different next to my classic solitaire. Both of the rings are shown here- what do you think?

Also- we saw Shutter Island on Saturday. I was nervous because it looked super scary. Rest assured, all the scary parts were shown during the previews on TV. Turns out it was a great thriller with the classic Scorcese twists. Loved it. This is one to definitely see.

Silk Flower Sash

{Etsy, of course}

That's hard to say fast. Sorry for my lack of posts this week. After staring at a computer for 8 hours a day, it's the last thing I want to do when I get home. Phone update: I love my Blackberry. Big time. At first I resisted it's lustful powers, but now we're fully in love. My gmail comes straight to my phone, and I'm able to handle all of the wedding plans on the go. Loves it!

Today I had some fun shopping for shoes, veils, and rings with Tami from Little Miss Southern. Love her. She's just as sweet as she is beautiful!

More on the shoes and rings later. But I did decide on a veil and another fun accessory. A silk flower sash! Now I'm not revealing my dress because Mr. SE is a super snoop! But I will tell you about the accessories...because chances are, if he does see them he'll forget in the next seven months (7 months!!!). I'm in love with the idea of a silk flower sash. Etsy has hundreds of options, and I've already got my eye on several contenders.

It's going to be ruffly and romantic, and stuck on a white silk ribbon. Elegant and classic, while giving my dress an edge of fun. What are your thoughts on adding a silk flower? Should I wear it for the ceremony and reception- or just the reception? Did you add any extra embellishments ( broach, silk flower, feathers, etc) to your dress?
