Wedding Favors
Bridal Party Gifts
What is everyone doing for their bridal party? Guys and their Girls?
I'm working on that right now.. I know the bride ususally gets their girls the jewelry they want them to wear for the wedding and I'm having such a hard time finding it.. found some cute things on sammoon.com, 1928.com.. now its just picking the right one.. below you'll find their dresses and to the left here is the necklaces that I like.. please leave a comment on what you might think would look the best! Thx for your help!! I also bought them robes to get ready in and black/pink flip flops but I might return them from OldNavy cause my matron of honor actually found ones from PAYLESS that I actually LOVVVEEE!! |

Wedding Dress
First fitting
I got my wedding dress back in March of 09 and had my first fitting back in September.. I live out of state from where we are getting married so my fittings have to be scheduled when I go back to visit family in Connecticut. That is where we are both from but Jimmy's job has sent us out here in Missouri. My next fitting is on March 20th and can't wait.. I hope I have some room in there for it to be taken in! I've been working really hard at the gym so I look amazing! Although I have been sick for almost a week. Started with a cold and now it ended in a sinus infection which I know have medicine for! Sooo happy I can finally get back to the gym in a couple of days!
My dress is a paloma blanca.. very simple, traditional and elegant.. something that I NEVER thought that I would be wearing! hopefully Jimmy never looks on this website..don't think that he will but its style # 3968 :-) in natural (not shown in the picture). Its like an off-white cream color..not exactly ivory but definately NOT white. |

Bridesmaids
dresses
we are waiting on the dresses to come in.. we ordered them back in October I think.. so just really curious when they will arrive!
We ordered Bill Levkoff #378 off HouseofBrides.com My girls LOVE them and they were the ones that said they can wear them again lol. I was kind of rooting for another dress but as you can see on their faces in the pictures they really love the dress. Now I'm trying to find some jewelry for them. Can't seem to find black jewelry that I really like! Ugh is so hard. Any suggestions? |
