Your dress turned out beautifully, you have a very talented aunt. Your wedding looked phenomenal, so decadent and gothy, you make a cute couple, too.

You are very nice about our wedding.♥<br /><br />In relation to the wedding dress, I am not very sure about how much it costs to send it tracked to Australia, but my family sends parcels to Japan all the time (one of my sisters live there), and although it is more expensive than European mail, it is not crazy. I think last Christmas my mum sent a 3 kgs packet and it costed something like 20 euros. But of course Australia is our antipodean, so it might be more expensive. Anyway, if you are interested, I can ask. <br /><br />And yes, red is a good omens colour! And looks SO beautiful too!Violette B.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07316660449899433403noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6129276820288218701.post-17026745071502672302016-02-05T13:27:33.738+02:002016-02-05T13:27:33.738+02:00Everything is fabulous!

Following this tradition, our guests stood up when I entered the theater with my father, and also while pronouncing their good wishes. The Gentle One and I stood all the time, except during my sister and our celebrant speeches (that were quite long). The whole ceremony lasted for about forty minutes, so it was very nice to be able to sit on a chair and control ours nerves. Thankfully, nobody fainted but everybody cried a lot, haha.<br /><br />And thanks a lot for your lovely words, Insomniac! You are always far too kind! ♥ Violette B.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07316660449899433403noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6129276820288218701.post-30703277945245402842016-02-03T16:28:52.994+02:002016-02-03T16:28:52.994+02:00Oh, and I forgot to ask!

Much easier than having to stand there shaking and possibly fainting during the vows. :)Insomniac's Attichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11713662124096176176noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6129276820288218701.post-59321403685499664222016-02-03T16:26:11.656+02:002016-02-03T16:26:11.656+02:00Just as I knew it would be, your wedding is probab...Just as I knew it would be, your wedding is probably the most beautiful I've ever seen in my life, Violette! You both look stunning - the dress is exquisite (your auntie really is an amazing seamstress!), The Gentle One's jacket, YOUR CAKE TOPPERS, the gorgeous location for the reception and the happy faces of your family and friends - too many exquisite details for me to put down here (plus I'm running out of adjectives to describe how wonderful it all looks!). Other than the car incident (which I think every special day needs in order to have a funny story to tell later on), it truly looks to be the most perfect of days. <3Insomniac's Attichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11713662124096176176noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6129276820288218701.post-47768864705711519002016-02-02T21:57:07.026+02:002016-02-02T21:57:07.026+02:00Thank you a lot, Ra.

We spent a good deal of time to find the perfect locations and providers, as we wanted our guests to really enjoy the day as well as make it truly different. <br /><br />And in relation to my hairdo, yes, it is totally Minoan, now that you mention it. Haha. I wanted the hairdresser to imitate Renaissance/Borgia style, but the resulting hairdo had its own personality. I liked it though, as it was a bit unusual. ♥Violette B.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07316660449899433403noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6129276820288218701.post-84390069304877453012016-02-02T21:52:50.836+02:002016-02-02T21:52:50.836+02:00Thank you very much, Wendy!

Not to mention you in that beautiful dress, with your out-of-this-time face... and I'm jealous of your hairdo! It looks like something from Minoan frescoes :D This day must have had unique atmosphere and I'm sure it will remain an unforgettable experience for everyone, who took part in it.
