Forever Starts Now is
Helloooo lovely ladies!

We here I am 4 months later since my depature from WBC. A lot has changed in that short period of time.

J & I are barley on speaking terms 90% of the time, which really sucks. I started seeing someone new and so did he. I stopped holding on to missin' him and wanting to come back.

But I did talk to him last week and he ended the converasion [on BBM] "okay, i'm deleting you now i don't wanna get in shit ill talk to you either" - so good to know his new girlfriend will yell at him for talking to me. { like who says that? }

So during the whole break up, my grandmother had passed and that was really hard. But then something good happened, I met my then boyfriend M. Who was a God send at the time. We've spilt up now, but still really good friends.

I'm slowly back on track. I'm back in school and paying down debt. Last week, I paid off Visa! Wahooo!

Other than that, nothing new. Heartbreaks mended almost and surprisly, I couldn't be happier.

Lots & lots of love,
Amber

Signing Off -
Forever Starts Now is
Okay, I feel like I can't just disapeer without a goodbye. This has been a rough month and Mr. & I are starting over from stratch. That means: No living together (going to be the hardest), No wedding. Just two people dating. I guess. He want's his space to see if he can mange on his own since we haven't left eachothers side in 2 1/2 years.

I'm really trying to keep postive & that's all i can do really. It's a very shitty situation and I wish I wasn't in it. He says he still loves me and does want to work on it, just needs space.

Anyways,

I'll miss you gals and your weddings and I hope one day I'll return to this page.

Good Luck :)

XOXO

HELP! Wedding bands for him..
Okay, so I saw someones facebook status and they were like "just picked out wedding bands!" Shit. I know I have 21 months to pick it out but FH is a mechanic at a shop and therefore, can't really have a typical wedding band.

Does anyone have a hubby who's a mechanic that has the same problem? I've heard of titatum bands for them so they don't get as dirty.

I still want him to have a band that he can wear out to work & at the shop.

Thanks ladies! HAPPY NEW YEAR.

PS. I'M GETTING MARRIED NEXT YEAR! EEEEK! :)

As you can tell, I'm trying to do some DIY's. Which are looking great! We're just puttering away for now.

my love & I are away from eachother for the next little bit with him still in Barrie & I'm back home with my mom.

I have been trying to catch up with you on my phone WBC.. I haven't been able to comment thou - werid. So I hate to say this but; Ive been a hit n run kinda gal.. I really have tried to comment thou!

How do you ask someone to be a "hostess"? Please help!
Morning girls! It's not even 8 o'clock here yet and I'm all ready on WBC LOL!

I have a question so please answer, no hits and runs!

I have a few good friends that will not be in the wedding, but not because they aren't good enough but because I know they will get the stuff done on my Day Of. One volenteered for the job and the other decieded SHE is a bridesmaid - - I didn't ask, and everytime it comes up I don't say anything (I know bad, but until yesterday, I couldn't cause I didn't know my numbers)

How did you ask people / how should I ask her? : )

TIA!

Hello, long time no see!
Foreverstartsnow is back ; well kinda!
I missed you ALL! So much!

First; Happy wedding day & congrats to TASHASISTA, NIHDAL, BANANA PANTS & CCRANETOBE! I know I'm late, but better late than ever. I hope you girls had a fabulous days!

Second; my laptop is STILL not working and I'm still curently stealing other peoples computer but they are leaving and taking it with them so uhm yeah, i'm going to try to do mobile wbc.. :P

Third; the MOVE again (yes, I know we JUST moved) but hey! Now, that I actually have a job - and now we have a townhouse, stainless steal applicances & zero carpet wooot! It all happened last week and J has a job interview too!

But until we can move in, I'm camping out at my mothers, who has a computer. YAAAY!

On the way home yesterday J informs me that "Everytime you talk about wedding stuff I want to poke my eyes out with tacks, but don't get me wrong, it's not that I dont care - I just don't care about if your friends friend can sell you white paper laterns for cheap, I just want to be involved in the BIG things. Okay baby. and please stop changing colors" Also, we had a convo about "Off season. we both think October would just be beautful! So now the date is Oct 2012!) [This year was out cause even I can't pull that off, next October buying a house, so still 2012!] It's looking like its our year ment to be! LOL

So basically, he's just signing the checks from now on! & I'm allowed to buy whatever my little heart loves under $200.00 without consultion!

I miss you girls!
XOXO

ForeverStartsNow's centerpeices!
So as I was cleaning up today, I found my damask ribbon and I started goofing around with it.

I want square vases (not this big) and the bow will be better when I get the actual vases and there won't be rocks in it (well maybe - but not that color)

& I might actually use the white hydrangeas.

What do you think?

Do Grooms know what they got themselfs into?
Okay, so I'm sitting here thinking about all the time's I've drove Jesse up the wall for changing the wedding and then I was thinking - our men know us, but do they know what they signed up for? All those details we bug them with all those crazy ideas!


I'm just wondering.

Wedding Reception
New venue!
I was talking about the "B" word with the FH the other day. (no, not baby - that's a separate post) The budget. It went from roughly, $10,000 (which is average) to roughly $5,000. Okay. Not a big dealio.But there is a super cheap (and VERY accessible) "venue" that is actually kinda cute - I have more of a decorating budget now, but it's MASSIVE. Lot's of room for dancing and drinking and "dinner". Any who, this place is very reasonably priced. $50 deposit; $395 for the day. Nice. Under $500. Bargain! Plus there's a super pretty park next to it! Now, I just need to book it... except they don't have a 2012 calender yet, so she say's I'm good (actually, they don't have a 2011 calender yet LOL)


So here's some pictures at a staff X-mas party. For a rough idea.

Ask a Question
No reception dinner? Anyone else not having one?
So, I'm in full wedding mode today and due to our recent life choices the wedding budget got cut in half. Which is fine, because we didn't really need the big million dollar wedding anyway :) I started thinking (that's never good eh tashasita) Over $5000.00 in food, is a bit much.(that was the majority of the old budget - - there fore everything else would suffer due to people eating)

1) No one ever likes wedding food, except for bread rolls and salad
or
2) Serve little platters / make some platters up and pay for the alcohol for everyone.
or
3) Have just close family (like at the wedding) for dinner and everyone else come for drinks and dancing !
I'm liking #2 or #3. I'm also changing locations as well ; ceremony in my parents backyard & reception down the street with the really pretty park right next door! The problem with the other venue was it was too far away and there wasn't a lot of room for people to sleep, but there are more afforable hotels they could stay in.


Anyone else not having a dinner?

just saying HI!
Hey ladies, I was MIA this weekend, did a lot of family stuff & I will be this weekend and alll of next week too!

But I'm checking the blogs now & doing some cleaning today and just wanted to say hi to all of my blushing brides! and

Nothing is really new on my end; still trying for a little mini me & looking into buying a house before the baby is born when I get preggers.

& I'm hoping that we can get married by the end of this year :) (note: date change) for the civil - - personally, I'd like to be married before I start showing & for legal reasons I don't want my child to have a hyphenated name like I do.

Hope all is well with you guys! Update me below! :)

FOREVERSTARTSNOW..
HAS SOME AWESOME NEWS! (for me at least)
Ladies,

GUESS FREAKIN WHAT! It's now offical, we are skipping a few steps but after January's events.. we feel.. that.. it is.. a good... time... to.. start...trying for a baby! Yes. I'm SO excited I could bounce off the walls!

We started talking about it.. more so me.. cause I'm the girl LOL. I was like I'd be totally okay if you know you wanted to have a baby.. like now. Then it turned into the whole man being practcal.. he told me to be patenit. and then after (when I gave up and started coming to terms with the fact that it wasn't happening right now) he cuddled up to me and started doing the dirty.. and I was like.. uhm.. the condoms.. and he had this HUGE (I'm talking clown smile) on his face and I asked him why he was so happy.. and he was like none of your buisness. Of course, I know him very well. & it does help, I've seen that look before. Long story short, he was trying to be all stubbon and manily and I was like you SO want a baby and he was like yeah, I do.. so the baby making has begun! :)

As for the wedding, I think we are having a civil ceremony & then a get together afterwards (a la, tashasita) and then take our time for our big "vow renewal". Btw; when I say small, I mean budget wise, I will still be scheming and planning.. hehe.

XOXO

NWR: JOB!
Need postive vibes!
Okay, so I blogged about getting a job about 3 weeks ago.. but I don't know if you know that I only had it a day since the pay was on comission and I was only making about $32.50 a day. Which sucks. On a more personal note; the financal situation is getting tougher and I'm stressed out about and FH is also very stressed as he doesn't make alot and we're really strugling.

So doing my daily search of jobs.. I had found a teachers assistant at the YMCA in my area. I had voluteered there in high school in my hometown long story short.. I sent my cover letter & resume over about 10 mins ago.. so I'm really asking you to send postive vibes my way as I really would like this job as it truly is something I'm good at..

Thanks a bunch girls! :)

XOXO
