I don't trust buying a wedding dress off of ebay. It's so pretty though. And it's only $129! That's what scares me. What kind of wedding dress would I be getting for that price. Anyone ordered a wedding dress from ebay?

I really love this template for a gift box from stylemepretty.com but the completed project is so small. I wonder if it could be blown up or something so it is bigger.

Anyone have any ideas? Have you done something like this?

Five years ago this September I started dating my fiance. . . the first time. We were only together four months before he was off to someone new. He was a senior in high school, a seventeen year old male pretty much explains it all. I was only fifteen and thought I was in love. He broke my heart when he moved onto someone new. We never stayed out of touch for too long though. When I was eighteen and he was twenty we tried it again. Now I'm twenty and he's twenty two. He's grown up into a man that I love. I too have grown, I know what I want and what I don't. I can't imagine my life without him. I used to be really independent but I find myself needing him. We've been through a lot of ups and downs throughout the years. I first layed eyes on him when he stopped alongside he road to talk to my best friend. I just assumed he was some guy, not important and minded my own business as we sat along the creek. Never would I have thought that the boy in the green toyota truck would be the man he is today, my man.

September 25, 2009 After talking about married life together, he got his moms engagement ring and slipped it on my finger as we were sitting outside before one of my family's usual family dinners. There was no down on one knee, no fancy restaurant, just us!

I've been dreaming of my fairy tale wedding for as long as I can remember. Every serious boyfriend I ever had led me ito my fantasy realm of weddings galore. I'm a very crafty person. I could get lost in Michael's for hours. I plan to DiY alot of the wedding and plan on doing it on a budget. I am full time student. I quit working last November because my pay wasn't worth the expense of the drive or the wear and tear on my truck. Rosco works, he has a really great job thankfully, so he'll be paying for the wedding. I don't want to torture him too much and spend all his money so it will definately be a budget/ DiY wedding!

I have been thinking about what to post as my first post for days. I came across this survey and decided I'd post it. Hopefully this is the first of many many posts as I have fourteen more months until our wedding day!
