This is cutie0162's Pink Wedding!

Does anyone know where I can download a good wedding template. I would like to find something with pink and green to match my colors.

Send me anything ladies!!!

So last night was awful!!!! My mother and I got into a HUGE fight. It all started because she has been wanting to over the food list with me again before she calls our "cater". Well she hands me a list and she has add so many new things in. Which some of you are prob. thinking that is great but its not great trust me. We are on a tight budget and my mom keeps telling me we can't afford this and that but she wants to spend money on more food? It just REALLY ticked me off!!!

Then she starts saying that there is nothing there that she would eat. So the wedding is back to being about her now. Which im just SICK OF! so it got me upset and I started yelling and she is yelling. In the yelling match I asked her wouldnt she rather help me out with invitations than rather spend more money on food we don't need? Of coarse not! My brother had to come break us up because it got out of hand.

I feel really bad but I want this wedding to me about me and Jason (FH). I feel like she is making everything around her and what she wants (which is how my mother is which I knew getting into this). We just have a hard time getting along. She keeps saying "wells its my money, Im paying for it" Ya you are but doesnt she want me to be happy? Doesnt she want me to love my wedding?

I just feel so bad. My mother is really stressing me out. She just seems to only want to help out if it favors her! Oh and before you say I need to talk to her about it....TRUST ME that is IMPOSSIBLE. My mother wants this GREAT relationship between but its hard. She is controlling and obsessed with me. When we do talk she only hears what she wants to hear. Because of our fight last night she said I don't love her and blah blah blah. Im sick of her acting like a 5 year old. My 6 year old daughter even tells her "its my mommys wedding".

Sorry for all the rabbling. I dont even know if it makes sense! Im just stressed and sad at the moment. Plus my FH is not hear to comfort me :(

So I was checking out my reception place and some one was having a wedding their that night. They had this basket in the bathroom with different items in it like lotion, mouth wash, body spray, etc. I thought this idea was so cute. Im so going to do this for our reception!!!

We still haven't found our florist yet but I hve more centerpiece pictures.

I haven been on a search for some sexy things for our honeymoon and the night of our wedding, I found this really cute thong on eby (brand new of coarse). I just think its so cute!

I love these shoes and they hve the PERFECT heel. This way I won't be taller than the groom!!

Tonight we went to the bridesmaid fittings and we found the dresses!!! My Maid of Honor and Matron of Honor are going to wear the strpless dress. The other 4 bridesmaids are going to wear the dress with straps. They all will be wearing the color watermelon. Im so happy with these dresses!!!!

The dresses look so much better in person than online! I will ave pictures soon of the dresses they tried on.

Since my daughter is the "Head Flower" girl, I am trying to make her special. I want her to wear a white dress but since she is so pale I think she should have some color with it.

The other 2 flower girls are going to wear honeydew color dresses with light pink sashes (I think anyway).

Here are some pictures of my daughter trying on some dresses.

Gosh...its been so long since I have been on here!!! I bought my dress at David's Bridal. It fits perfectly and the train isn't long so the butle won't make my butt look too big.

Do you girls like?!?!??!?! LET ME KNOW!!!!!

So I went to Sestra Bridal tonight. I had both MOH"s there to help me. I was calling them my tucker and my blower. It ws soooo HOT in the bridl shop. Plus its just ot trying so many dresses.

I narrowed all te dreses down and I like 7 of them!!!! Im going to go back soon so my mom can see and my oter bridesmaids. I won gift certificate for $75 and then I have a coupon for $50 so I could save lots of money!!!!!

My Maid of Honor, Matron of Honor and my Grandmother are going to Sestra Bridal shop tonight to start trying on dresses. I know I need to get my dress soon since my wedding is in May. I just wanted to lose weight first!!!

I won a gift certificate for $75 and I got a $50 off coupon so I hope I find something!!!

Wish me Luck!!!!

I found these favors on Ebay and they are soooooo cute!!! There is this bar area at the reception and i plan on placing our favors or in the big glasses (pic# 3). I think we are going to do the matchbooks that are candy, mini candy wrappers and the hershey kiss labels. I think all of thse will be cute and don't forget CHEAP!!!

check out: elegantfavorsquick on ebay!!!!

Anyone having a Candy Bar? check out the last pic. I think it would be perfect. Found the picture off of Michaels.com

I love these dresses. I think def. the bridesmaids are wearing pink. I want to add something different to make the MOH's stick out. So everyone knows who they are.

Anyone else using HOT PINK BM dresses????? Let me know if you are!

Im just curious how many brides are getting married here and who are they using for cakes, catering, etc.

I dont know if anyone watches the bachelorette but Deanna is getting married May 9, 2009.

Are there any more brides with the same date?

Yep...Its offical. I think we got a pretty good deal too. She did my Matron of Honor's wedding and she is doing one of my bridesmaids wedding in October :)

Im very happy! she is doing our engagement photos for FREE!

My best friend Alana a.k.a. MOH got engaged on 4th of July. Her and her BF have been dating just as long as my hubby to be. Im so happy for them. Something must have been in the water this year because all of my close friends are getting married either this year or next year!

I LOVE THESE!!! They are only $1.95 and you customize your pictures and text. A coarse im going to use different pictures but i as just testing what i had.

Since I have a maid of Honor, matron of honor and 4 bridesmaids I want people to know who they are at the bridal shower.

Should i get bridal name tags or order buttons. They have sashes I could order but I think that may be too much.

Are any other brides doing the same thing? if so let me know what you are doing or where you are finding things.

Here is the link to the buttons: ($19.95 for the package)http://www.haircomesthebride.com/Fun-Bachelorette%20Buttons.htm

UPDATE: WARNING!!!! I received this bags and they were nothing like the picture. The color of the bags were darker and the handles are different colors too. The bag is small, does not look big like the picture. Plus the names are coming off. they are just stuck on there. Just wanted to WARN YOU!!! They will do the deed for the night but I expected more. They look much nicer in the picture

Im going to have a personalize guest book for the wedding but im thiking of having something like this at the rehersal dinner so all of my closet family and friends can sign and set up at the reception.

Above is the website to create your mosaic. Create an account and upload your on pictures. I did several with me and finace and then some with wedding stuff.

So our ceremony is on the lawn outside the building. I want the guest to enter the doors with wreaths hanging on them.

We are going to make wreathes similar to these that I found on the web. I just LOVE THEM!

I may add little block letters that say "Mr & Mrs." on one wreath and "roberts" on the other. I think that idea is cute!!!

I absolutely love these custom made boxes. Im going to have my sister-in law to make me one. She is more crafty than I am. Im thinking of making the 3 tier boxes and putting an R in the middle for Roberts!

I got this picture off of someone else's blog. This is excatly what im looking to have at our wedding. If someone knows were to order these, PLEASE let me know!!!

UPDATE: I found a website that does nice guest books like the first picture. They are about $45

I have seen so many brides with this idea on their blog. I think its a GREAT Idea! WE just might use this too.

Im looking to have some kind of flower arrangement still but trying to keep them under $20 per table.

I still have 2 more bridesmaids pictures I need to add! The picture of us at the birthday party are all of my best friends.
