Ask a Question
I'll be MARRIED 2moro! [justme&him]

Welpt it's been a while since I've been on here WBC was not letting me log on again and it was freezing my computer when I would try to post ;-( I had given up until my wbc sister phillygirl sent me and email asking about my whereabouts and wishing me a happy wedding day ;-) I miss you girls and will have to do post-wedding posts about EVERYTHING I have been working on, here are a few things to list:

Here is my escort card frame that I made. It was really simple and easy to do, The cards are attached by little clothes pins, love it!! I'll post more in a later more detailed one but here it is:

Here is the mock of my centerpiece that me and my sister did last weekend this will be on every table except with lavendar roses petals they didn't have any at the store that day so we just used pink

My petals arrived yesterday by fedex from a Nevada florist in a BIG box I have 3000 white and 3000 purple petals

It's going to be hot in AZ that day so I'm doing a lemonade, tea, and fruit punch table for people to drink pre-ceremony here are the signs that I hand made that will hang on each drink dispenser along with the lemonade we got and the purple cups that will go with it! And I have purple straws!!

Here are the start of her putting the favors together after making each truffle- a chocolate one and a mint one will be in each bag for the guests

Here is the candy for the buffet some of it almost all put together, I put them in their jars and tight wrapped them so that they can just be put on the candy table and unwrapped. I hand wrote our names and date on each rice krispy treat!! lol, I love those and the purple kisses are too cute!!

Got my Chiavari Chairs![justme&him]

YAY!!!! I had my venue meeting yesterday and finalized the layout and I got some exciting news!! They now have chiavari chairs that are included in my package so I get to use those for my reception and not have to rent them from an outside vendor!!! Saving money is always NICE!!!!!!!!!!!! BUT now I have to go in and change my linen color to a lilac color to go better with the chair. I'm excited though!!!

Wedding Decoration
Petals Ordered [justme&him]

I ordered my fresh petals and they will be delivered 2 days before the wedding via fed ex. I ordered 6000 - 3000 white 3000 lavender. The white will be used for the petal toss and the lavender will be used for the the aisle and centerpiece decorations. I paid $120 for 6k real rose petals with free shipping, that was the cheapest I could find. Can't wait until they get here so I can see them!! Now I'm trying to decide on aisle decoration with the petals, some inspiration photos here: I'm tying off the top of the aisle with ribbon too.

Purple Wedding Rings And Jewelry I did it- rings soldered! [justme&him]
   
Wedding Rings And Jewelry
I did it- rings soldered! [justme&him]

Hey ladies, welp after much debate back and forth I decided to have my engagement ring and wedding band soldered together.
Photobucket
They just didn't have a comfy feel seperate when wore together, the spinning alone drove me nuts! I had to take it in to get done with enough time to reverse or adjust it before the wedding so a total of 20+ days to be safe. So I got it in last week and LOVE IT!! (keep reading pic of them now follows!!) They feel so complete now like they should have always been this way. And doing it before the wedding saves me the heachache and heartache of not having them after the wedding while in the shop. Some people say you aren't suppose to wear your band before your married but I DON'T CARE, I'm not going ringless for the next 23 days!! So I wear it, well I had to for a while anyway to make sure it feels okay and now that I know it does I can't take it off!! lol!! So anyone else soldering their rings?

Favors picked!!! [justme&him]

Ok ladies, the last I left off was doing the the cake pops as a tester to see if I wanted to do those as my wedding favors but we did them and the only issue I had was that we are already have a wedding cake will people really want both. So my sister had a recipe that she made that same day a chocolate truffle one and omg, they are amazing!!! So I will be going with those as my favor!!! They are pretty easy to make and melt in your mouth!!

Here's a pic of the ones we made

Writing ur own vows? [justme&him]


So our Reverend contacted me and wants to know if we have completed our personal vows yet. EEEKKKK!! No we haven't, yikes! At first I was so sure I'd write my own but the closer it gets I get more and more nervous about it. It just seems like added stress for the day, to not forget what I'm saying, or not misread what I wrote, not forget the paper in my bridal suite......the list goes on......We are still doing it but I'm hoping that I won't be so nervous on the day.

Who else is writing their own personal vows?

How long R u off from work? [justme&him]

As many of you already know, the FH was a doll and agreed to extend our honeymoon stay in Jamaica by two extra days!! So we are there for 8 days and 7 nights.
I'm so excited!! I got the time off from work thank goodness so now I'm taking 2 weeks off from work starting the Thursday before my wedding all the way through the honeymoon and the day after we get back to recover. Then we work for 2 days and it's the weekend again!!
I'm also off for a week this month to finalize all of the 30 day things so I'm taking the week of our 30 day mark off!! I'm so excited!! So I'll be out a total of 3 weeks in the next 2 months wooohoo!!!

So how long is everyone else taking for their wedding and any other planning?
