Google+ Guest Blogger: Real {Preppy} Southern Bride, Part II - Southern Weddings

Southern Weddings

Elizabeth’s big day is fast approaching!  Only a week and half before this preppy southern bride walks down the aisle.  Here are a few big day details from Elizabeth of {Tie the Knot}

Bridal Party Attire

I knew right from the beginning that I wanted a very casual feel for the wedding. My bridesmaids are wearing {Vineyard Vines Seaport Seersucker} dresses in green. I chose this dress because I knew my girls would wear it again and they would be comfortable all night! The groomsmen are wearing Vineyard Vines green seersucker ties with little anchors on them, navy blazers, and linen pants. The groom wanted to stand out, so we chose Vineyard Vines twill pants in {Mariner}, which is a faded red color. His tie is red seersucker with anchors on it. I bought his blazer at {Jos A Bank}.  I keep telling myself that these are things he will wear again.  Originally I opted for a white seersucker dress from Thread for the bridesmaids but when it didn’t make it here on time I had to choose a more traditional dress. I have decided to use this Lilly Pulitzer Mckim Sandal in White for them.  Whenever people ask me questions about what we are wearing they can’t believe what I tell them, but I couldn’t imagine it any other way!

    This is so fun, I was so glad you shared that website too! I love the ties. My daughter’s wedding is at the beach (in a church, but at the beach) this summer and she is looking for unique and fun ways to make it special and appropriate for the location. Since she and her bridal party are all in college, they don’t care what people think either! They are brave enough to do things in their own less formal and traditional way. I think it will be really fun to shed some of the stuffy formalities! Melissa
