When I think destination wedding, a few things come to mind: beaches, tropical bevies, mini bikini, vacation sex and... oh yeah, the wedding. Right? Because even though I am excited for the happy couple, when I'm spending the ton of money required to attend such an affair, I want to make sure that there is something in it for me too.
I know that it sounds selfish, but I am all about being honest, and bridey this is the "norm". Your guests are excited for you, but they are damn well...

That being said - here are my current fave seasonal stationery trends:

I've actually never shopped there before, but came across a whole host of white dresses in every style you can think of...from breezy bohemian to modernly minimal.
So many beautiful dresses, and all easily ordered online! I'm sold....

I've recently discovered Etsy seller Dahl, and I'm totally in love! Her dresses have the most beautiful silhouettes, and in a range of colors, can work as both bridesmaids AND wedding dresses! With a price point under $300, they dont break the bank either.
What do you think of Dahl wedding dresses?
