Fascinators

I LOVE the look the women in hats at weddings. I really do. I'm pretty sure that none of our Canadian guests will even consider wearing a hat so it is up to our British guests to make the fashion statement. I've pleaded and begged with Lee's mom and step mom to wear one but to no avail... Apparently they'll 'ruin my hair' or 'I can't wear hats'.

Failing in my hat mission, I've started to push fascinators to both moms and any of our female friends making the trip. They all probably think I'm nuts but I just think that they are such gorgeous adornments to a woman's outfit. They won't give you hat head, they look great, they will probably travel to Canada far more easily than a hat, and they aren't all that expensive at places like Accessorize!


I'd love it if someone turned up at our wedding in something like these:

Love those hats... especially the last one! They'd photograph amazingly, too!

It looks like your wedding is going to be fun, unique, and stunning.

BTW- Thanks for adding me to your list of photographers. ;)

I love that black hat, although I don't know if I would be brave enough to wear those two things sticking so high up in the air like that. What do you think of wearing a black hat with a white dress?

Jenna - I'm no fashionista but I always try to go with my gut feeling on these matters...I'm not sure if I would wear a black hat/fascinator with my white wedding dress, but I think that some girls could do it with aplomb.
