Vista Print Finds!
T-Shirt and Car Sticker
I went on the site for Vista Print. I just wanted to browse to see what they offer. Well I ended up getting two T-Shirts for our honeymoon. I also came across some car magnets. It was neat and Cheap. I think I paid 6.00 for the T-shirt and one was free. The Magnets were 11.00 together. I also got some sticky notes with the same thing on them (not pictured). I keep getting emails now to get free stuff. Gotta love Vistaprint.

Groomsmen Gift.
Broke down and got the bags
FH wasn't too fond of getting bags for his men. I thought it would have been tacky to just hand them their stuff at the rehearsal dinner. So I went on and ordered them some bags. I will monogram them just like the womens. I mean they still have stuff to put in them.
- Monogram Bag (Smaller black bag) - Mask - Flask - Fleur de lis pen |

Corsets
Wow.....what a difference!
I never thought about a corset, or considered buying one. I went to pick up dresses yesterday and there it was. I know I put on a few pounds since I began this "circus" planning. I couldn't resist it when the sales ladie had one on. I brought it and took it home. I never opened it until my FH started joking me asking what I need it for. Wow....that's all I could say when I got a good look at this thing (on). I was so amazed. I have an instant love. The sales woman wanted me to get a smaller size (L) than I got (XL). . .lol. That would have been pushing it. I was surprise to feel how comfortable I actually felt in the corset. I kept it on for a couple of hours. I can really see my self in it on my wedding day. And it was only $16.00. Sure beats a $100.00 corset. . . lol.

Wedding Favors
As if I don't have enough...lol
Well I have been thnking about this candy bar. I tried it at the engagement party. It went over really well. But I'm always thinking of something different. Then It hit me. I am having a Mardi Gras theme wedding. My favors should reflect the treats on a parade route. So here you have it. My favors will be
- Cotton Candy www.papajohnspeanuts.biz/cottoncandy/index.html - Candy Apples DIY for the maids during retreat - Caramel Popcorn www.nationwidecandy.com That sounds more like it. I found companies to do them all for me in bulk. So Instead of 200.00 on candy buffet. I spend 150.00 on carnival candy...lol. I'm Loving It! They all come in clear plastic bags so I can make labels of my own. |
