Wedding Wednesday — Style Icons
LINK BACK TO OUR WEBSITE! www.wyoweddings.com I was reading the newest People Magazine, with a preview of the pending royal nuptials in Britain. One thing struck me — a tip from an observer to Kate & Camilla having lunch together…they said that Kate was mentioning how much she admired Grace Kelly’s wedding. This made me think…here was someone who is already a style icon in her own life, and she has a style icon that SHE looks up to as well! I thought that was pretty neat — and since I already think Kate is pretty darn cool, I was even more excited to read that she and I share…

COLOR INSPIRATION: Persimmon!
LINK BACK TO OUR WEBSITE & FIND A WYOMING VENDOR! www.wyomingweddingsonline.com My kiddos and I were in Mountain Valley Bridal in Laramie the other day, enjoying the color selection in the dresses. My oldest and I were very intrigued by PERSIMMON — another color that I for one was not very aware of! Did a little research and discovered — persimmon is a HOT wedding color! A persimmon is a fruit that is much like a tomato in size. It can be called simply ‘orange’, of course, but I would argue that persimmon has a little more something to it than just straight orange…perhaps a brown undertone? Pink? Hmmm…well, if you…
