Breaking Dawn Fantasy Post...courtesy of the lovely JW!

A few weeks ago when I posted about the Breaking Dawn fantasy post, a lovely reader emailed her suggestions for the wedding. They were pretty awesome! To make things easier, this post will mainly include her email she wrote to me...with the pics included. ENJOY!

"I don’t have strong opinions/imagination for some things like décor, flowers, and bridesmaid dresses.

I’ll give you some rambling thoughts about the wedding dress.

I remember watching Anne of Green Gables on TV almost every year for the longest time. I loved her pale-blue puffed-sleeve dress. It was so sweet for that time-period, but not for a 2010 wedding dress.

There’s a movie called “A Room with A View”. I think it’s around the same time period. There are some pretty dresses in that too. Again, it may be too matronly for modern sensibilities. I couldn’t find full length dress pictures.


Titanic was around the same time too. Here’s a modern dress that I found on Polyvore where someone linked it as a Rose-inspired dress. Very curve hugging and sexy. Kristen could rock it, just like the form-fitting Herve Leger and Bally dresses she wore for the Eclipse promos. I would love to see a sexy Kristen in the movie. I guess that would be vampire Bella.

***NOTE: JW-I cannot find this dress you linked me...include the link in the comment section if you have it cause it's a BEAUTIFUL dress!!!

Only in the past decade or so, the most prevalent wedding dresses have been strapless. When I saw Ivanka Trump’s wedding dress, I thought, beautiful and classic, but it’s probably not early 1900s enough.


I think Summit should hire a top designer (e.g. Monique Lhuilliher, Vera Wang, Badgley Mischka) and have them design a gown based on the AoGG era, but with a modern spin on it. Like everything else, Summit should spend the extra money on this. They should try to make a movie as if they were aiming for best costume, makeup, etc. Oscar nominations.

Here are shoes from Miu Miu that I found on http://beautifulthingstoshare.blogspot.com/. It has great pictures for wedding inspirations.



And these shoes for the dance:


I think Edward’s tux would have to somewhat match Bella’s dress in terms of era, but they shouldn’t look like they were going to a costume party.

First dance song – Endless Love. I really like the version from Glee."



Again, thanks to the lovely JW for sending in her ideas! And if you find the link to that dress, let me know and I'll update the post.

A/N: We will discuss all the epicness that has happened these last few days...because let's face it, it's been like Christmas around here!!!! ;-)

Breaking Dawn...Crystalfied!

FINALLY!!!!!!!! I'm getting around to posting everyone's fantasy ideas they sent in. I am serious, I need to find a new job not only for gas expenses, but for my sanity. It's killing me. I seriously went to Starbucks yesterday just to be able to check my emails.....yeah, not good.

Anywa, first fantasy post up is blogger bestie Crystal. ***Note-I hope you like your "Crystalfied" title. LMAO! She sent me in a lovely Monique Lhuillier wedding dress and some of her fav manips she's found since 2008. So here they are!







And the BEAUTIFUL dress...I think the title of the collection fits Crystal perfectly :-)




Thanks Crystal for your contribution to the fantasy post!

Look out for another reader's fantasy BD wedding later this week, beginning of next!

Breaking Dawn Wedding...Manips

This wasn't what I was going to originally post, but I thought it would help get us in the mood :-)

I know I haven't posted in quite a while. To be honest, RL (work) has been an absolute evil nightmare these past few weeks. For real, I don't think I've ever been so stressed out in my entire life! I'm talking loosing sleep and not having an appetite kind of stressed. Yeah, not good. I'm responsible for getting a cohort ready to start their teaching education content classes...and they have to have certain criteria met before they start their Fall semester. The major is licensure, so basically there are all these papers and guidelines and blah blah blah that you have to do beforehand. I had a meeting with my supervisor to make sure I started all their files correctly, and I was FREAKING out!!!! But everything went fairly well, so I'm a little bit more content now.

Anyway, back to my original reason for posting. I know you guys are waiting on the Breaking Dawn fantasy post part 1. The people who sent in stuff, you are amazing. Thank you, thank you, thank you! I know you are waiting to see your stuff, and I apologize for not getting it up sooner.

I think what I will do is dedicate a post to each person who sent in ideas. So look out for yours in the next few weeks! I will try and start this at the beginning of this coming week.

While we wait for that, here are some Breaking Dawn Wedding manips that I found to help us get revved up for Breaking Dawn. Seriously, some of these are just freaking AMAZING!!!!!! So enjoy and relish in the pretty of the Rob & Kristen, errr, I mean Bella & Edward wedding ;-)




:-)


This one is absolutely stunning...and I so wish it was bigger


This one is cute



love it!!!!



the shot of Edward holding the ring makes me giggle...LMAO!





this one is awesome, except Bella's super curly hair




absolutely in love with this one...except that Bella/Edward don't look very happy


old-timey feel


The best one wouldn't post!!!!!! It's actually more of a funny one with a cullen "family" shot. It's got Emmett, Carlisle, Jasper, and Edward all jumping in the air around Bella...made me giggle snort. Here's the link http://api.ning.com/files/0nOGf4nf44O6U4xeNBDtRhTdWLhK5Y0Ft1UPXd4BLtvUgMVcgxZU2Y6FeHvpaYPkmS5AltwENN7GkMp20kgJ9DMqeS7iVDre/AwesomeFanmadeStuffIfoundontwifanscomsoemarefunnysomeareGODSOHOOOTtwilightseries8012838737509.jpg
