Ask a Question
Aisle runners again...
These aren't the greatest pictures, but I was wondering if you brides that are putting rose petals down the aisle are putting them all the way down wherever, or along the sides like the second picture?

Hair and make up
Again...
Alright... so I think I have things a little bit figured out. Haha.
My make up: I love Sophia Bush's make up in the first and third pictures... The first might be a little to dark for a beach wedding though. My hair: I am getting extensions for the wedding because I want my hair all curled, but still long. I'm still not positive if it's going to be all down or half up. I have always loved Jennifer Love Hewitts bangs but have never been brave enough to cut mine that far back, but I might make an exception for the wedding. As for curls, I really like the last picture of both Sophia Bush and Jennifer Love Hewitt. What does everyone think? |

 Stressed out |
84 days
And I still have so much to do!!!
So I have 84 days left till the wedding and I have so much to do. I still don't have my bridesmaids gifts. There are a few of my last minute decoartion stuff that I still need to get. I have to get all the details of my cake figured out before I can finalize my order. (They're being difficult because I don't live there) I have to finish my playlist to give the dj. I have to make a list of specific pictures that I want and send it to my photographer. I have to make changes to my bouquet orders, because the price is way over budget right now. I have to make route plans for the limos and some sort of card to let the guests know that there will be a limo service picking them up outside their rooms. I have to get the groom and groomsmen fitted for their tuxs. I still need to find an aisle runner at a reasonable price. I have to finish my thank you gift baskets for the people that help out with decorating and stuff. I have to ask a few friends if they can pick some things up for me. Baskets for the bathrooms have to be done. I still have to find shoes for me. Get my dress altered. Have a crinoline made. Decide what I'm doing with my hair and makeup. Am I wearing a veil and headpiece of some sort?
And the list goes on and on.... Is anyone else getting close and stressing??? |

 Wedding party tracksuit |
In Style...
For me and my girls!
So me and the girls got matching tracksuits. Theirs say Bridesmaid on the back, and then have their name on the front. And mine of course says Bride on the back and my name on the front. They're really cute and will be great to wear for our rehersal or for our hair and makeup appointments.
I also have some others like Mrs. Thompson and Just married that I can wear more after the wedding. |

 Just married confetti Assorted signs Wedding yard sign kidz treat boxes Kidz activity sets      |
Extras
It never ends...
So it looks like we're going to sprinkle a few pieces of just married confetti around each centerpiece. Hopefully it looks good.
Then we'll probabaly get some of those yard signs but change the color of the balloons. Or else I might have some signs made up in our wedding colors. Depending on the price that it. And kid kitz. I don't know if I'm going to get these ones yet, but something along those lines. We'll put some crayons and coloring books in, maybe some kid puzzles or something. A few healthy snacks. I don't know what else yet? Anyone doing something similar or have any ideas? |

 Interior of limobus 8 passenger limo 10 passenger limo    |
Transportation
Limobus
So my fiance and I went to BC this past weekend to take another look at the resort and to see the new road that they put in. OMG, it's insane. Now it's this super steep downhill walk to the ceremony site. We walked down it and back up the other side and I almost didn't make it back up. There's no way we can make our guests walk this, so it looks like I'm going to have to provide transportation. (Not in the budget) I've been talking to a couple different limo and van rental companies and it looks like a limo will be my best bet. (There's way to much involved and renting a van with having the right licence and stuff, and the cost difference is only a couple hundred dollars) So I wanted the 20 passenger limobus, but they're not sure if it will be able to make the corners and stuff at the resort. But if it can be done I think it will work great. The limobus can just do loops around the resort and pick everyone up from outside their rooms. If the limobus is not going to work then I'll have to rent a 10 passenger and an 8 passenger limo. The only advantage to this is that the limos could be going around 5 minutes apart and would offer more flexibility in times to pick people up. And if the one limo comes to pick up me and my girls the other one could still be getting last minute stragglers. LOL!
But that's a picture of the inside of the limobus. I can't get a picture of the outside. The other two pictures are of the 8 and 10 passenger limos but they didn't have any pictures of the interior. |

Ask a Question
Aisle runners
Has anyone found any monogram (or other) aisle runners at a good price? I've seen the ones at oriental trading and places like that, but don't really care for them much.
Also, is there a particular type of runner that would be better for sand than other hard surfaces? |

 Happy we're friends |
My bridesmaids
A girl couldn't ask for better friends!
Me and my Maid of honor Mandy!
 More of Mandy    Me and Bridesmaid Rielle  More of Rielle    Me, Bridesmaid Natasha and my cousin Tonnae (She's doing our photo guestbook)  More of Natasha   These next ones are from when Mandy and Rielle went to try on dresses. The first pink one was my first choice. I loved it, but the girls didn't find it very flattering on. The black one with the pink bow I thought was sooo cute but my sister in law did black dresses so I didn't want to do that. The plain black dress is the one that the girls felt the most comfortable in, so thats the one we went with. It's actually really cute in pink!        |

Reception decorations
Black, white and pink
As for the reception decorations... it's a pretty nice place and we're on a budget (the food is taking most of our money, $40/person) so we're not doing alot. We'll start off with black chair covers with a white satin sash. White tablecloths with black napkins. Then we'll put a black napkin on the center of the table to put the centerpiece on, just to have a nice contrast.
Then we'll have our centerpieces which will somehow be pink. I still don't know what I'm putting in those martini glasses. And then we'll be doing some lights in tulling on the ceiling, similar to the pictures. The reception site has this amzing patio overlooking the lake, so we bought some nice rope lighting (cheap on ebay) that will wrap around the wrought iron rail from one end to the other. If the weather is still really nice, we're probabaly gonna do our first dance out there. (You can see the patio in that night picture with the pool.) We'll also have the arch brought up for our GRANDE entrance. Haha! |
