We can never have enough shoes......





It is said that a woman can never have too many shoes, and most of us would agree!
Our closets are filled with footwear of all kinds, from sexy stilettos and cute ballet flats to cosy winter boots and comfortable old running shoes.
We never seem to find it very hard to find a gorgeous new pair of shoes... until it comes to looking for shoes for our wedding day. Then it gets a little more difficult!



Wedding shoes not only have to fit and make our feet look gorgeous, but they have to go with the dress, be comfortable enough to wear all day and be in theme with the wedding location and season. Nowadays most brides are also looking for shoes they can wear again. So how to choose? Here are a few of the hottest trends around.






Let the shoe shopping begin!!!!!!

Love this idea I just had to share.....

Wedding Time Capsule



Create a time capsule and give each guest a piece of paper that read, "Write a message to "bride and Groom" to be read on "....(date)", their 10 year wedding anniversary." We also have a part at the bottom where people could make predictions about what their lives will be like in ten years: how many kids we will have, where we will be living, etc. This is so sweet!
