Weddings are a blast, no? Give me a decent plate of wedding chicken, a steady supply of champagne, all my friends on the dance floor, and I’m quite the happy camper.
My sister’s wedding was no different– except as the maid of honor I had a few more duties than usual. No one took me up on my offer to trade outfits so they could make my speech for me (“Come on, no one will notice. It’ll be fine.”), so I had to suck it up and get on the microphone. I think I said, “Oh, I feel like Beyoncé,” into the mic at first (smooth, Ash), but the rest of the speech went as planned. My sister didn’t ruin her makeup with tears and I didn’t puke/collapse/hyperventilate. Success!
That’s a wedding wrap! (Praise, I don’t think I could take much more wedding planning.)
You looked beyond gorgeous! Omg, that dress was MADE FOR YOU!
Aw, thank you Heather! 😀
Simply stunning, Ashley. You look amazing!

Lovely!
That dress is so perfect on you!
Congrats to your sister and I’m sure your speech was awesome- sounds like you were a hit!
Aaaah! I wore that same dress to my rehearsal dinner 🙂 Love it!
No kidding! Great fashion minds. 🙂 I’m obsessed with the dress- will definitely be wearing it every chance I get!
You looked gorg!
So, so pretty, Ashley! I love this dress on you. And you picked the perfect hairstyle- young and fresh, but showcases that great neckline. Beautiful!

Haha glad to hear your speech went well. The last wedding I went to was for my friends Mark and Danna. Mark’s brother Frankie got up to make a speech and spoke about all of Mark’s trials in dating before he met Danna. He spoke about how it can eventually happen for everyone and singled out our friend Fred (who is single) heh Fred was NOT a happy camper!

You looked absolutely gorgeous!! 🙂 Thank goodness that my sister got married before I did because I don’t want to be a matron of honor. The speech — ahh! I hate public speaking. But I’m sure yours went well, and I loved the opening statement. Haha!
Dude, you rocked that dress like the fierce sistah you are! I am in my sister’s wedding in June and me thinks I will not look as svelte in green haha.
Great look: Love the details and color combination Of your dress! Amazing!
