taessa chorny (john's sister, my sister and matron of honour) will be creating my dress...she will also be the master creator of custom bridesmaid dresses...six maids (well, 5 maids and one matron)...i want my girls to wear pretty little black cocktail dresses and maybe red shoes...to accent the red heels of my christian louboutin's...i've come to realize, or perhaps i have always known that i love tulle and lots of it, and the romantic feeling of lace...when i think of beauty or romance i also think of audrey hepburn and grace kelly...paris and anything vintage...i love this beautiful world we live in...road trips, watching the beauty fly by me through the window...i love green and yellow...italian countrysides...and old barns...there's nothing like watching a peony bloom...what a glorious flower, full of grace...and i love my man, my heart, my soul, my friend...so many ideas...or maybe not enough...

here is a photo journal i have put together of things that i love...pictures that make me smile...and ideas for dresses...for myself and my ladies...
