Can I back out of being a bridesmaid?

1. Before you approach your friend, the bride, really think about the reasons you want to back out. This isn't the time to be indecisive. Make sure you are certain you cannot be a bridesmaid.

2. If you're certain you cannot fulfill your duties as bridesmaid, I recommend having an honest conversation with the bride - the "kiss, kick, push" method. Start with the kiss - metaphorically speaking, of course! - by telling her how much her friendship means to you and how happy you are for her. Next, the kick, which is that you need to back out of being a bridesmaid and why. And lastly, a little push, by bringing the conversation back to a positive note with a little nudge towards what's next. It might go like this, You are a great couple and your wedding is going to be beautiful. I am honored you asked me to be your bridesmaid. Unfortunately... as I wouldn't be able to fulfill my duties – bridesmaid dress, bridal shower, bachelorette party, etc. You know I care so much about our friendship and so look forward to celebrating your marriage with you as a guest at your wedding." I'm sure she will be disappointed, but hopefully she will appreciate your honesty. If not right away, give her some time.

3. I think the best advice is to get together with the bride and really have a discussion with them about why you are backing out. The next best piece of advice would be to do it as soon as possible. The more time they have, the better. Try to find solutions or listen when the bride brings up solutions.

Spring 2014 Wedding Inspiration: Hemlock

Spring 2014 Wedding Inspiration

Today's lovely green, Hemlock. It's similar to mint, and goes with almost anything! I absolutely LOVE it paired with Radiant Orchid, as I have done here - the two colours really bring the other alive. I am excited to see the reaction to this one. In the last while I've been noticing a drift toward the pairing of pale green and blue, and even though Dazzling Blue is the lead colour for this collection, the combination of Placid Blue and Hemlock is my tip for the perfect contemporary wedding look and one I think we'll be seeing quite a bit of in 2014. It's such a cool, fresh combination - so chilled and so elegant, and I love how it combines with elegant country details effortlessly, including lots of organic greens and blues.

Winter Wedding Inspiration: Grey + Blue

I have a little Winter inspiration for you. Winter weddings are a time for bringing out all kinds of beautiful colors. For me, cool blues and subdued grays have always been on the top of my Winter weddings color list. Perhaps it's because these colors look perfect against a snowy landscape? Soft, elegant and all kinds of pretty, this is the stuff that Winter weddings are made of.

How To Style Mismatched Pink Bridesmaid Dresses

I real don't  want my maids wearing the exact same style of dress, shoes, jewelry & hair-dos... Bridesmaids are different shapes and sizes and I love that they each have their own unique sense of style so I didn't want to settle on a dress and 'a look' just because it was the only one appropriate for all of them.

Many brides love pink, and pink theme wedding are more and more popular now. See how they mismatch their maids so that they get the pretty, romantic overall look and they each had their own individual style. Same color, fabric & length or same color in different fabric & length, even different pink colors... light pink, bright pink, pale blush pink... floaty chiffon,taffeta, even lace... knee length, tea length, long... I think different hem lengths would have looked a bit odd. Different designs - sweetheart, v-neck, halter, one shoulder... whatever their hearts desired!
