Following on from our last post about adding that hint of military to your wedding day look with clever accessories, we've put together some of our favourites bridal bling finds on etsy...
Pearls for nautical wedding are obvious of course, try a statement cuff bracelet like this one, only US$20 from Always the Bridesmaid. Sashes are perfect for that subtle impression of navy style and gorgeous with the addition of crystals and rhinestones.
Who said crayons were for kids? Christian Faur brings a whole new approach to the medium by grouping hundreds of coloured crayons together to form a pixelated image. Amazing. I hope he gets a good deal from Crayola.
I thought this month we'd have a little haute couture inspiration for our wedding fashion. Zuhair Murad's Spring/Summer collection from Paris Fashion Week is spectacular. The Lebanese born designers latest work has a fabulous military feel to it which is just gorgeous for a nautical wedding. Most brides to be I'm sure will prefer a far more toned down version for their wedding dress, but think about adding elements such as sashes and brooches to your gown that hint at navy style.

Finally getting a little closer to our new kitchen. Ive had the computer drawing through today, which, naturally, Ive coloured in. Well Im not having cream walls! :)
Its love on the high seas this month! It has to be said that here in Australia we probably prefer the beach wedding as opposed to the nautical theme popular in countries such as the US. But this tie the knot nautical wedding is always in style, and perfect for weddings in harbour cities like Sydney. It also really lends itself to the chillier months, being a little less outdoorsy than a beach theme. With smart navy blue and crisp creams and whites - hop aboard.
