This is mrstiffanymay's Green Wedding!

I forgot to add this picture a long time ago. These are the dresses my 5 bridesmaids will be wearing. The have straps with the dress that can be attached but I prefer them not to wear them. I love my bridesmaids they picked out their dress all on their own ... it took them approx 25 minutes & they all liked them!

YEAHHH I got my flower girl dress that I ordered on Ebay (from CHINA) the shipping was more than the dress itself!
The bow on the dress is just pinned so I got a $10 bow from David's Bridal to match the bridesmaid's dresses & it looks so good. The front of the bow has sparkles and matches the front of the bridesmaids dresses! :)

Looks like things are starting to come together :)
This week we are meeting with our reception site to talk about our wedding! Then we are meeting with the florist to get an exact amount for our flowers! I am getting more and more excited as the days go by.
I just keep forgeting how many little things I have to get done in the next 5 months! Hopefully it won't be a problem & everything will get done in a timely manner!

Right now Ry & I are going through classes so we can get married in the church.
St. James is a great church. I've went there my whole life but never was confirmed there. I really love the architect & everything about. It is beautiful & will not need a lot of flowers or decorations ... so that is great! :)
Our classes are almost finish & as an adult I have learned so much more than I did as a child in church.

Does any bride from the area know of a good DJ. I want some one who will make people have a good time & enjoy themselves.
I want someone very active & cool :) I don't know about prices but I would be willing to pay a little extra to get a great DJ!

Tomorrow will be a busy day for me in the "wedding world"
I have lunch with the office but after that, I will be working all afternoon to get some Wedding stuff out of the way.

Well I have figured out that I need to get on the ball with this wedding stuff.
I have a couple things I am def. going to get done this month.
1. start looking for invitations. If anyone knows of any cheap & good places to get them let me know.
2. call the cake lady & decide how I want to decorate it.
3. Call the photographer & set up an engagement session
4. Finish bubbles
5. Meet with Reception site to get a menu started.
6. Go with the girls to get sized for their dresses.
7. Look for tuxes for the boys

I think this seems like a lot but hopefully I can knock it out! :)

So I have really been slacking on picking official colors for my wedding.
I have been tossing up different colors.
First off I know that I am having Clover as my main color and I know I want to have silver in there too because of the centerpieces. But I wanted a second color. At first I was thinking a pink. NOT a bright pink because I do not want anything that would look like a watermelon. But maybe just a splash of pink to brighten up the colors. So what do you think??
Then my mom said what about a purple??
Then I started to think that could work but I have NO CLUE!!
I need help!!
