Real Wedding: Bridesmaids in Violet Purple Dresses!

I love beach weddings, so of course I was excited to see pics from Danni's September 2011 wedding in Michigan. The bridesmaids got to choose the style between the Ruffle Collar Dress and the L'Amour Dress all in the violet purple cotton fabric. Kelly Braman Wedding Photography West Olive, MI.

Green and Purple go so well together!



Two of the bridesmaids were pregnant at the time of the wedding, their dresses needed to be made as close to the date as possible since sizing was bound to change.
