alaska bride

My bff kraybelly is tying one on ... or is it tying the knot? I always get that confused! hahaha.

but anyway, she's a beautiful, blushing Alaska bride, no? Note the dog butt in the picture... oh Copper!

She's getting married in Settlers Bay outside Wasilla in the fall so it's going to be pretty autumn colors. Like rich red and deep browns and light mocha. I'm not really into the brown bridesmaids dress but it's not really about me now is it?

Have you guys ever read or seen Alaska Bride magazine? It's hilarious. I love the pictures of the brides on the four wheelers in hip waders,etc. And some of the locations are breathtaking, like at lighthouses and different lodges around the state. (Practically every wedding showcased in the zine has a rehearsal dinner at Mooses Tooth)

The one I saw had a "celebrity" wedding with Kikkan Randall (Olympic athlete) and her hubby--they had a bright pink wedding and were married under ski poles!!

The magazine also had a feature on a new post-wedding trend called "Trash your dress" where the brides get photos wading in water, fishing and mud-wrestling. It's wild! Krysta said she'd be down for something like that--I wonder if she'll trash it in Settlers Bay. I'd be down trashing the brown bridesmaid dresses too! Maybe Copper the dog can help...
