Thank You Notes
Emails is it inappropriate? I just got my first wedding present, a kichenaid. I love it! I wanted to show a picture of the new kichenaid with my FH. It is just so much easier. It is from my grand parents & we communicate mostly by email. I cant spell worth crap & My hand writing is not so pretty. So if i hand wrote it I would write it over 15 times or so till I got it right. I'm willing to do it that way if you think is inappropriate to email. I really need help ladies.
Update: Thank you for the comments, I really appreciate it. I went ahead & hand wrote the letter. |

Wedding Dress
My dress comes in next week. Yah! I'll posts pictures ASAP. I have had nothing to for two weeks. Just waiting for new stuff to get close. It has been driving me nuts waiting. I'm sooo ready for this wedding to be over. I've never had a child before but I think I have a fraction of an Idea of how it feels to just want to have the baby all ready. I have 80days & it feels like for ever!

Getting stuff done
All most done
I ordered FH ring yester day. Yah! I'm excited I saved $150 dollars by ordering his ring online. It is the same ring from the same company. Doing my home work is really paying of in the budget department. Not paying off in the sanity department but planning will be over soon.
We meet with The DJ got that squared away. I'm running out of stuff to do. I have to wait for time sensitive projects to get closer. I feel like I'm behind & I'm forgetting stuff but I know I'm not. FH is getting close to the end of his fire probation. Today is his last shift at his current station. I can't wait He has been pretty irritable thru out this whole ordeal. With good reason I suppose. I just cant help but be excited as every thing is drawing to an end. |

Countdown
100 Days!
It's here! August 29th Brides.
Planning is winding down. To Do list is getting shorter! I went though a stress break down a few days a go & now I'm back in the game. Stress is a funny thing. I find My self avoiding people that are tiring to "help" but are really making my life difficult. People I never thought would be my go to person have really stepped up. You really see who cares when it counts |

DIY Wedding
Bouquet Wraps
I 'm almost done with my bouquet corsets. I still have to find ribbon to lace them up. I cut a piece of fabric from the left over fabric of the girls dresses.
1) start with a 9x5 piece of fabric. 2) I used taffeta so my next step was to fray check the edges. allow to dry 3) Then Iron Half inch seams on one side & top & bottom edges. 4) fold the un seamed side over four inches & iron 5) Stitch seams down 6) Punch holes along side seam & flap 7) squeeze fray check on to a plastic surface. with a Qtip dab fray check on to holes. Allow to dry 8) Set grommets & lace up |

No Alcohol
What the Hell?
Our wedding is at a church camp. My FH & I drink on occasion but not very often. So when are venue told us that there was no alcohol . I wasn't too concerned. The wedding is at three, fairly early .
I thought the wedding would be over by six we could go out after. That way If people got stupid drunk I could leave. I had no Idea how rude people would be about it or how pissted. I was under the impression that It was it was suppose to be a celebration of two peoples commitment. When Did it become a day to get drunk on some elses dime? I thought not having alcohol would weed out the people that were just going to go. I though that people that were important to me could go a few hour with out booze. Well My FFI let me have it. Told me you can't have a BBQ with out beer. So many other people feel the need to tell me how they feel. I'm a little upset. I have three months left. I can't change it now. It is not constructive criticism if I cant change it. constructive would have been three months ago when I could change venues. I've been planning for nine months now... I could understand this concern if we were drinkers but we are not! I thought this day was about us am I wrong? I'm so frustrated I could cry. Up date: Thank you Ladies for the support. I truly needed It. |

Wedding Reception
When do you tip?
Do you tip before, after, during the reception? When are suppose to tip your vendors? I was thinking after or when the reception is winding down. I wouldn't think you would tip before? What are you doing? What is tradition?

Pens
I found the pens I was looking for. How ever they only sell them by units of 100. I only wanted 2 for the guest book. I though about giving them as favors. I think I may try to make them my self. Any Ideas for me ladies?

Wedding Photography
Engagement Pictures
These are my picks. The first picture is the background for our invitations. The close up of our faces is for the back of the invitations. My FML took these. Engagement pictures were some thing we could save on. I'm happy with them. We went out to a field behind there house so they are personal as well.
