When the days get closer, the more final products I see, which is awesome. I mean I can talk about them until the cows come home but nothing is for certain till the fat lady sings, or so the saying goes.
Last week, lovely Lucy went to get her final fitting and took photos of her sporting the bridesmaid gown. I must say, I quite like it! It turns out the purple is much lighter than the royal purple we originally envisioned, but I must say I didn’t mind the lighter shade as I think it will do well to match the Spring weather. But like I said, seeing photos is one thing, and seeing it in real life is another so I was really excited to pop over to Lucy’s folks’ place on Monday night to grab the dress made for Emily.
When I showed Ben the dress, he was like “that’s a lot of purple”.. Hahah.. Err derrrr. Anyways, I eagerly tried it on with the matching shoes I bought for the girls and I must say, I really like the combination. I mean, they are not your typical bridesmaid dresses, I’d say they are more like sophisticated ladies’ dresses, which I think are quite fitting for my sophisticated bridal party! Heck, for $650HK a pop, I think the dresses are awesome.
I need to now make sure the sweet peas we’ve got for the groomsmen’s button holes are in the same shade as the bridesmaid dresses.
The perfect colour! I need to find these sweet peas!
