Rehearsal Dinner Dreams
April 13, 2010
Sometimes I like to live in a fantasy world and imagine what it would be like to own things like the Lanvin dress above. Just look at those ruffles—can you blame me? Below are the details of my little collage of big dreams, pug included!
From the top left: Lanvin tiered frock, Stella McCartney pearls, Chloe ring, cupcakes, Judith Leiber clutch, peony centerpiece (these beauties are faux by Diane James Home), Alfred the pug in a bow-tie, letterpress peony invitations, Essie nail varnish, and Giuseppe Zanotti heels.Comments

Thanks Gina! I really am going to find Alfred a bow tie—that part’s the real deal : ) xoxo

You are adorable! I wish more than anything in the world I could give you this dress as gift.

Brookie — Thanks love. It’s the thought that counts. I’m obsessed with the dress, but I think it would look silly on me anyhow. A few too many frills for these curves : ) xoxoxo
-

Gorgeous inspiration board! All very classy and beautiful! It would be a beautiful garden wedding!
-
Ashlina — Yay! I’m slowly converting you to my neo-trad ways : )
Keely — Thanks love! We are having the ceremony in a garden, does that give me an excuse to splurge on all this? I wish…sigh.
Hillary — That makes two of us : )
-
oh I love it!! fantasy worlds are the best. I think you will look fabulous in the jcrew dress though! we are looking into getting a dog in the near future and your little Alfred makes me want a pug! xoxo
-
Colleen — Do get a pug!!! They’re so cute and chubby and have most wrinkly little faces. I’m hoping to get a second one (Alfred needs a companion) when we get settled in San Francisco. Fingers crossed! xo
-
This would be fabulous. I love the dress and those shoes. They were made for each other.
-
I dream of owning outfits that cost thousands of dollars all the time. One day when my rockstar fiancée is a millionaire I’ll do! Till then I’ll create ridiculous dreams!
-
I always dream of these kind of outfits…. I absolutely love everything that LANVIN is doing right now it’s amazing…..

Lanvin makes the best little dresses! That dress would be perfect to change into for the later part of the reception! Great inspiration board :)

Christina — I’m glad you think the shoes and dress work together, I was debating!
Kayla — Yay for your rock star fiance. I have no doubt he’s going to make gazillions and buy you all the couture your stylish heart desires!
CEO — In full agreement, Lanvin is on a roll…
Lindsay — Lottery ticket, check!
Alison — Glad you like the pug. He’s my favorite part : )
Chasa — You must be new to Ruby Press! Welcome to my blog love! xoxo

I am totally catching up on your posts. I’m been crazed sewing in all my free time.
I love that dress. I think ann taylor did a dress similar to that. maybe you can live in a fantasy world!

You would look so great in that dress! It’s so pretty and feminine with a dash of sexy:) Perfection!

I absolutely love the bow tie for Alfred — so adorable. And that dress — I think Mr. Armour might get a bit weak in the knees when he sees you in that.
-
Thank you for the comment on my blog!! I absolutely adore your blog and can’t wait to get through the archives! (I’ve already seen your wedding dress and it’s gorge!) ALSO: this dress!! I am going to dream about this dress tonight. =)
-
Thanks everyone for your sweet comments! You’re all invited to my fantasy world in which we all dress in couture and drink bubbly all day long. Oh and there’s lots of little pugs in bow ties—one of each of us! xoxoxo katie

drooling over the dress and have absolutely zero doubt that you will manage to create the same whimsical feel on a budget in your own ceremony.
nothing wrong with a little dream here and there…love the bowtie on the doggie & the cupcake! :)
