dress: Nordstrom (here)
sandals: LC Lauren Conrad at Kohls (old)
bracelet: Tiffany’s
This is what I wore to the wedding this past weekend. When I saw it in Nordstrom, I pretty much knew it had to be mine. They had it in white and pink too, but hello, this mint colour is just the prettiest, not to mention it’s my favourite colour! So I was somewhat disappointed when they didn’t have the right size in store (for the record, if you’re planning on buying this dress, it runs a size small!) but thankfully the customer service at Nordstrom is just the best, and the sweet girl ordered the right size to be shipped to my house! I was very excited about this. Zack can attest to that. This dress is pretty much my ideal dress at the moment, and reminds me of my bridesmaid’s dresses in my wedding, which brought back a whole slew of memories, and plus, it was a wedding, which always tears at the heartstrings. And then they played my mom’s favourite song to dance to (“Love Shack” by the B-52s) which just made me break down right then and there. I was slightly emotional all night, but mostly it was good emotions. What else is new.
What colour dresses did your bridesmaids wear?
If you’re not married, what colour do you think you’ll have them wear?

Love Shack! I could get dancin’ to that, especially in that pretty mint dress. I love your shoot location too, it’s gorgeous :) I’ve just popped in from The Pleated Poppy, nice to meet you!
It really is the best song to dance to! So much fun! :) Thanks for dropping by, sweet girl!

What a gorgeous dresss! My bridesmaids wore a minty/sagey/muted green, and I’m still in love with those dresses, too! I’m also digging that neatly stacked wood pile behind you, what an awesome backdrop! Stopping by from pleated poppy!
Haha I didn’t even notice the woodpile while we were taking the pictures! It just worked out that way ;) Perfect! Mint dresses are definitely the way to go!

So pretty! Mint is a becoming color on you! My matron of honor wore purple–she picked it out, I just told her to wear a dress, I didn’t care what dress it was! (There was only one, so she didn’t have to match anyone else!)
Thank you so much! I’m glad it looks good on me, because it is my favourite colour to wear! Helps that it’s flattering ;)

Nordstrom really does have the best customer service. They are awesome there. I’m glad you chose the mint…so pretty! My bridesmaids wore black…but if I did it over again, I would have them wear green.
I was so happy with Nordstrom! They really know how to treat their customers right! :)

My bridesmaids wore black (it was all black and white because we couldn’t decide on a color), but if I were to do it over (which I wish I could) I’d have them each in a different bright color.
I love the trend of each bridesmaid having her own colour! So fun!
xo
I am pretty much in love with this color. Mint green is my favorite color as well :) I think mine with either be mint green or coral pink, can’t go wrong with either ;) and btw, I nominated you for the Liebster Award!
Ahhh both excellent choices! I LOVE me some coral too!
xo
that is one pretty dress for one gorgeous lady! loving the detail on the dress :-)
Aw thanks so much Renee! :)

Love your dress! Nordstrom’s is the best. They’re finally opening one in Manhattan so I’m super excited about that! We only had Nordstrom Rack here so it was about time! I’m not married yet, but I think I’d like my bridesmaids in a coral color. It’s my favorite for the summer.
Nordstrom Rack is amazing, too, but there’s nothing like the real thing. Exciting!! :) As for coral, good choice. It’s such a pretty colour, and perfect for a spring or summer wedding!
xo
Absolutely love it!!
Thanks girl!

i love, love, love your dress!
mint is in my wedding color palette! my bridesmaids will either wear mint or a dusty turquoise. i think mint is so dainty and pretty. :)
I agree, mint is just so feminine and lovely. Plus, our wedding colour was technically “Tiffany Blue” so it just fit the bill perfectly!

Lace dresses are the prettiest ! You look great

I agree! I am starting my own personal collection of lace in my wardrobe! Can’t get enough!

I love this dress on you! It’s so pretty! Mint is such a gorgeous color, I can see it being perfect for a bridesmaids dress! Mine were navy and they carried lavender flowers!
Navy is such a classic colour! Love it!

I’ve been on a mint kick for about 3 years now – still haven’t gotten sick of it! This dress is so fun and pretty :)

Oh, I will never ever get sick of mint. It’s too pretty :)

Such a sweet outfit :) I got married back in 1999 and my bridesmaids wore periwinkle… hahaha does anyone even use that word any more?
Periwinkle! For sure! I’m calling it now: periwinkle will be making a comeback soon ;)
xo
No wonder you had to have this dress! It has the most flattering fit EVER and the color is absolutely stunning on you! You look gorgeous, Katie!! I’m not married…yet (finger’s crossed he puts a ring on it soon…hah!), but I want to do mix and match blush tones!
xo Ashley
I love the blush tones for a wedding! They are so flattering with the bride’s dress! I’m crossing my fingers with you for that ring ;)
xo
You look gorgeous as always! That color is beautiful!
Thanks love!

That dress is just perfect! My bridesmaid dresses were no where near as classy…I stuck them in some psychedelic tie-dye! Haha What can I say, I want to be a hippie when I grow up! :)
OMG tie-dye wedding?! So fun! I’ve never heard of that before- you’re such a little hippie! ;)
xo
Cute dress! I think whenever I get married (in a LONG time) I’ll either do black with a plum accent, or blush tones, or mint green. And the blush thing is weird bc I never used to be a pink girl, but slowly I’m turning into one. Eeek! (oh and try a chocolate cookie from chick fil a, and then thank me later). ;)
All excellent choices! I really do need to try that chocolate chip cookie from chic fil a ASAP!!! You will be the first person who knows when I do!
xo
you are beyond cute, miss katie!! i LOVE that dress!
Thanks pretty girl! :)

You look incredibly lovely, Katie! And, for my future wedding, I think I may have them all wear slightly different colors like my sister had us do in her wedding. Although I do like light pinks too. Hmmm. I still have plenty of time to think about that.
