Wedding Rings And Jewelry
Need Your Opinion Badly!!
After 2 years of getting married we finally upgraded my wedding set. I was really happy with the way it looks at the jewelry store. However, now I'm a bit unsure with the quad style ring. I feel like I was too excited about upgrading the ring and rushed into buying it without really thinking about it. Please be honest and tell me what you really think about the set. Should I change it to a single cut ring instead?

My ceremony and reception pictures
Thanks for all the help and support ladies..
Contributing my wedding experiences to weddingbycolor has been great and joyous to me. Thanks for all the help and support ladies!!! Finally, these are pictures of my wedding ceremony and reception. They were held one week apart. The wedding ceremony was celebrated small and private with only limited family members while the reception was held with around 170 guests. I was so happy that everything turned the way it was planned. The ceremony was intimate and sacred while the reception was festive and fun. Enjoy the pictures and I wish it can bring some inspiration for your wedding planning. Good luck with all!! Have a wonderful wedding !!!

Trying on their dresses
These are some pics of our flower girls trying on their dresses and headpieces.
They are my FI's nieces, and their names are Allissa(4 years old) and Allisson (8 years old)
The dresses are a little big for them since I bought em online
But its okay coz their grandma are really good with sewing and can help them with the alteration
The sisters use to live in hawaii, but they moved the LA recently
They are so sweet and adorable. Arent they look cute with the dresses...?

DIY Guest Book Pen with Silk Flower
Its so easyyy...and it'll save you a lot of money
Making these pens cost me no more than $5.
I think they look unique and elegant
You can match the silk flower with your wedding color

Tools and equipment needed:
-pens
-silk flower
-super glue
-ribbon

how to make:
apply supper glue to the bottom of silk flower and attach it to the top of the pen. make sure it is strongly glued so it wont easily fell off of the pen.

wrap the body of the pen with ribbon. apply some supper glue on ribbon before wrapping

Just make sure the wrapping is evenly spread throughout the pen so there will be no bumps on the ribbon.

On the reception table you can put these pen on a vase so it'll look like a bouquet of flower

Growing number of guests....
Its 75 days to the wedding and number of guests still not fixed
So its 75 more days to the big day and the number of our guest list is still increasing.
Originally we planned a dinner reception for 125 guests..now that number has rose to at least 200 guests(not fixed)
The number of guests is now nearly doubled from the first time we planned the reception.
It happens because both me and FI come from big families. So, once we invited cousin A, we feel bad for not inviting auntie B, and because B also knows uncle C and family friends D, we have to invite them as well
Because of increasing number of guests, we have moved our reception ballroom (still on the same venue, only moved to bigger ballroom)
We also need to make more invitation, buy more things for the favors, update guests list on wedding website, and many more...pheww....this is gonna be a lot of hard work to do.
Oh well, but that's fine...
At least the ceremony (that is 1 week before the reception) will be small and private with very limited number of guest..shhh...this suppose to be a secret...once other family members know they might want to come...;)

anyway, do any of you ladies have similar experience with growing number of guests?

We dont want any stress on the wedding day, so we divide our wedding to 3 parts on 3 different days. The civil ceremony will be 3 weeks before banquet(just the 2 of us and parents), religious blessing will follow 2 days after civil ceremony(again, only us and parents), and the banquet celebration with 150 and up guests is to follow (after Christmas, at december 28). We decided to choose the holiday season for our wedding so that all friends&family who scattered all around california can come(many of them have very strict work/college schedules that only allows them to visit LA on holidays)
