A Wedding Journey: The Attire
Well, this is the final post for this series of Wedding Posts! So excited to show you what we came up with and how the budget ended!
We wanted some fun in this wedding, as we both had nice weddings before, we wanted some fun things to keep it light and filled with loving memories.

Our rings are imprinted with words from Star Wars: Empire Strikes Back
This is a fun thing for us because we are Sci-Fi Fans! I also wanted something that Hubby would like to wear on a daily basis.
In the movie, link above, Princess Leigh says to Han Solo, "I love you" to which Han's responds, "I know".
For my Wedding Dress, I wanted something unique. In a color that was pretty and light. I chose a Flapper Style Dress with beading and sequins. I think it is just lovely!
I purchased my Dress & Cape from Babeyond
the color is Apricot and I like the weightiness of the dress. My cape is cream and apricot and the same pattern as the one above in the Cape link. I pasted the description for this dress below. It has a heaviness to it because of the bead-work and I really like the way it feels and hangs.
- Feature: Zipper closure for easy wear, long fringe, which moves beautifully during walking and dancing; Decorative beads and sequins, a show-stopping addition to your dress.
-
Design: Elegant beads and sequins embellished stripe and flower
pattern; Sexy V neck; Double-layered fringe irregular hem, moves
beautifully during walking or dancing; Side zipper closure.
- Material: Polyester fabric and soft fringe, beads & sequins; comfortable and breathable.
Hubby's pants are from Haggar Men's Dress Pants. These pants are comfort pants and have a bit of a forgivable waistline. They feature a flat front and no pleats (I love pleats and cuffs) or cuffs. So they fit like comfortable jeans.

Hubby's shirt is from Van Heusen Men's Dress Shirt. The crispness and "no iron" features of this shirt make it great for a dress shirt.
Hubby chose a small design in silver as his choice on the shirt. If you order via internet, remember to plan ahead for sales and discounts. We purchased these Hubby clothing items two months ahead.
Hubby's tie is from Cheap Ties. They have a wide variety of colors and styles to choose from. We chose a slight peach/tan color tie for Hubby, a silver tie for both the Best Man & Groom's Man. We did have a bit left in the budget and purchased a tie for our Pastor & my Father.
