Ask a Question
2 Questions....Would this be ok for Ceremony music?
My only concern is that it is too pretty lol! My wedding is going
to be at the reception site in an adjacent room and lets just say
while the inside of the building is pretty, the outside is no looker!.

They sound soo beautiful!!

also I'm not what part each should be in

Prelude or Processional:





If too pretty, I will use 2 as the Prelude and 1 as the Processional

How to Measure

Its strongly recommended to have your measurements taken by a
professional. Measurements should be taken in the undergarments that
you plan to wear with your gown. We strongly advise that you do not
take the measurements yourself. Have someone assist you and follow the
guidelines below. Please note that Enchanted Evening can not be
responsible for measurements takes outside the salon. You are
responsible for selecting the correct size.

Bust
Measure the bust line at the fullest part of your chest. Stand naturally with
your heels together and arms resting by the side of your body. Position
the tape so that it covers the widest part of the back and the fullest part
of the chest.

Waist
Place your hands at your natural waistline. This is where the tape should
be positioned. If you can not find your natural waist, stand with your feet
slightly apart and bend to the side. Where your waist creases is the
natural waist.

Hips
Stand naturally with your heels together in a relaxed pose. Measure with
the tape around the fullest part of the hips. Do not pull the tape tight.

Wedding Reception
Ordered My Photo Guest Book
I ordered this off Etsy.com 50$ (including shipping)

The ribbon is going to be more of a darker burgundy

I actually went to alchemy section to post a custom order, I got 4 bids, one guy would do it 40$, but he didn't have any pictures of his work so I went w/the lady who would do it for 45$.

I asked for unlined paper, so the guests can write more than just thier name if they want

and i'm also going to buy card stock to put on some of the pages (so the guests won't write on them) so later I can insert pictures taken of my guests at the wedding

I can't wait for it to come in !

*************************************************************************************
Does anyone know how to maybe get cellophane or plastic material instead to maybe create slots for photos (and have protective covering)

-that may be harder to do though...

FYI!!!
Brides on a budget who need their gown quick......
Ok, well If i had known about this in the first place I would have saved myself 250 bucks!

but anyway bestbridalprices.com has an in stock section (hover your mouse over the bridal gowns and its at the very bottom of the drop down menu)

the only thing, is they they have limited quantities, sizes and color

but its worth a shot, the bouqtiuqe i saw it at had it for 500

I believe all the in stock dresses are only a week delivery!

and i did call them and make sure, and the lady went to look for it, and came back and said: yes we have it, I got it right here in my hands and if you put ATTN Pam under special instructions, i will try to get it mailed out today for you (it usually is 24 hrs before it gets mailed)


If you read from my previous post, I didn't like the dress I ordered the bouqtique wouldn't let me trade for this dress (which was cheaper than the 1st dress) and their sales are final so, I paid and took it home and found the one i wanted on bestbridalprices.com ..... and...... they had it in stock for delivery!! and... it will be here by Mon or Tues and just ordered it today!!

Anyway, when my dress comes in I will let ya'll know how everything went, and if its really as wonderful site as i hope it is (although Irishpocahontas has said some good things about it)

I'm soo excited.... and nervous!! b/c only 36 more days!!

What should I do?!?! I don't like my dress!
**********************UPDATE SAMEDAY***********************

I officially ordered the second dress pictured!! It
should arrive within 3-4 days!!!! I'm so excited!!

********************************************************************

Ok, soo I purchased my dress Jan 3rd and just picked
it up and I don't like it anymore! and also, the previous
posts where i thought i was posting a picture of my
dress was wrong!! this is the real picture...

Photobucket

and yes i tried it on before i bought it, but for some
reason, today when i tried it on, I did not like it! It
looked too plain

well i paid 600 bucks for that dress w/tax and now I
want to sell it I think


I searched for the other dress i liked from there, which in one of my posts, i have a sideshow of trying it on and
found it at bestbridalprices.com for only 325 and the
only have one left and its my size! and yes i have tried
on this exact dress in the exact same size they have!
also its only a one week delivery!

I wonder how much money i will lose from the first dress
though

Should i just suck it up and wear the first one?
