I'm excited now!

So, I was bummed a few days ago, and wrote on a post how I was bummed, and not really feeling the wedding plans. Now that Christmas has come and gone, I am excited, and I have motivation! I have been surfing the net for the past 4 days now, and really came up with some inspiration! I am going to let my girls know via email after I am finished with this post!
I have decided on my color scheme! And I owe it all to this cake!

Its going to be burgundy, black and white colors. I picture this:

Burgundy (like wine color) table linens, ivory roses for the centerpieces, the BM's in black dresses with burgundy accessories, and then I was thinking MOH in Burgundy dress with black accessories, their bouquets will be ivory and burgundy roses. The ushers and bestman in black tuxes with burgundy vests, an ivory boutonniere, and my fiance in a black tux with ivory vest and burgundy boutonniere. Flower Girl in an ivory dress with burgundy trim (if we can find one!) Myself in white or ivory, of course, with an ivory bouquet.

I'm also thinking of incorporating some kind of wine theme. I love the corks as place card holders. Im excited. I hope my girls like the idea! My FI is onboard! Yippy!

    Thanks! I am going to a bridal expo this Sunday, and I hope even to spark more interest! I told the girls (Bm's and MOH) my vision. Only one of the bridesmaids said she didn't want to wear black, and told me that when I look back at the pictures, people will think more "Funeral than wedding". I disagree about this. I told her I have seen plenty of pictures of black dresses for the bridal party! She's just going to need to deal with it! LOL. I am not changing my mind!
