Hola hive! Since the Handmade Amor recaps were interrupted by our vacation to Chile (Yes, It's summer here) I wanted to share a little project I made for Halloween, my $3.00 wedding dress! well, it was my costume wedding dress, I dress up as a mail order bride and Mr. Poodle as a Geek :) It was super fun and the perfect excuse to make a pretty white dress.
Mr. Poodle's aunt gave us some old curtains, that I had saved. So, to make it I used the curtains and the purple left over from my wedding dress, I purchased $3.00 of white satin and that was it!
I wish I would have had the time before our wedding to make this one and I would have totally wear it at the party, I loved the one strap back and the rough edge.
I also made flowers for the strap, the first design I had in mind was a little different and with a bottom full of flowers, but since I only had 6 hours to finish the dress and head over to the party, I went the easy was and forgot about my (very cool in mi mind) idea of having a full of flowers bottom.
This was the very first thing wedding related I did after our wedding and I realize how much I loved to make my wedding dress and this dress, so I offered my help to my friends if they need a wedding dress in the future =]
Sorry about the wrinckles, but I took all of those pictures the day after the party and forgot to press the center sash. I decided to make it with an incorporated sash, easy and simple.
And that's it!
We will be back in February from our vacations (I am spending as much time as I can with my family here in Chile) so the recaps will continue then. Happy new year hive!!! and I hope you don't forget about me.
Much love
Mrs. Poodle.

Handmade Amor: The wedding Party
So after the guys and the ladies took pictures separately, we got together for some group fun. We stayed in front of the caboose just because we all loved it as our background.
We all had either boleros or jackets to warm up, but decided to pose just like that, I am actually glad we did because in the pictures you can not notice we were all kind of cold.
and of ourse, it was pretty windy!
but so much fun!
Then we moved to a part of the field for some different shots.
It was such a fun time, and we got to joke around and relax before the ceremony. I remember laughing all day long, we were all so happy but our friends are pretty funny too. So between the Joy and the jokes, our cheekbones hurt so much the day after the wedding =]

Handmade Amor: The Ladies!
I know I already mention the fact that our wedding day was super cold and windy. Not that I want to complain, actually I think the wind played on our side because we manage to get awesome wind shots. This post has some of my favorites :)
We had such a blast with my girls taking pictures, laugh and enjoy every second of it.
We used the caboose as our background while the boys where allover the place hehe
Some pretty cool wind shots :)
Action set
and our beatuful flower girl.
Some petty details.
I have to say that wearing boots was one of the best look desitions, I was so comfortable and danced all night thanks to those purple beauties and so did my girls with theirs :)

Handmade Amor: Mr. P & the Groomsman
After all the funny pictures Mr. Poodle and the groomsman took while getting ready, they decided to take some normal portraits. Gotta love the boutonniere shamrocks! :)
They run around the Ranch using the caboose and the old house for their pictures.
They also went inside the caboose and pose
Use some props hehe
And of course being at the ranch they had so show some guns.
They took care of my bouquet when I needed
and show they pretty converse.
but after a while the mustaches came back
and of course, the silliness in the trampoline!
