As I looked at wedding sections in stores and online, I was extremely dissappointed with the choices of toasting flutes. Everything was either stainless steel (meant to be engraved, no doubt) or covered in ribbons and fluff. I was looking for something simple that we could have in our house and continue to use after the wedding. I considered buying some regular champagne flutes from Crate & Barrel, but what I really wanted was glasses that went along with our polka dot theme. Low and behold, I found the exact thing I was looking for at Hallmark!
They are simple and beautiful - exactly what I was looking for! That only goes to teach me that the most unlikely places can have the most perfect things!
Along the same vein, I finally found some nice, simple white flats to wear to the reception. Although I love the high heels I picked out for the ceremony, there's no way I would be able to wear them all night. I looked everywhere for white flats, but all the ones I found had sequins, designs, or other unneccessary stuff on them. I almost gave up, but Payless ended up having a couple of styles of white flats for Easter. I really wanted to get a pair that had a white bow on the front, but they ended up not having my size. My second choice was just as cute, though, and I was able to buy their last size 10.
The glare from the flash makes it hard to see, but there are little pintucks around the toe of the shoe and a large button fastening the Mary Jane strap! Very retro (although, a little more 60s than 50s). The most important thing is that they are REALLY comfortable and will be a lot of fun to dance in!
