    These are beautiful- I love the red. I'd love to see the pictures from the actual day with the BP dresses and your wedding dress of course!

    Hey Jennifer, we loved the damask theme after we saw how great it looked all together.

    I'm glad I found the flowers, otherwise we would've just had candles.

    I am very nervous...3 weeks! Eek! Lol

    Thank you ladies!! @Karen, I got very lucky with the dollar store flowers... they're metallic.... so they're not "supposed" to look really real!

    @Shianne You can do it! Go to the dollar store and have fun!
