Some recent ideas I've found for the Gazebo
SInce we decided on our ceremony location I've had a lot of second thoughts because they want so much money for literally a 20 minute ceremony. We have to pay for a ranger to be there at $70/hr., a required 4 hour minimum(how convenient) on top of charging the guests $10 to go in the park, on top of the like $400 just to have the ceremony there... all of this for a State park. California sucks! lol
Sorry for the rant above, I just find it ridiculous how much places charge just to use the site. Robbing people just because it's a wedding. Anyways I came across a wedding blog with a the wood branches bent into a heart shape for decor. I fell in love with the idea of a hanging heart and decided I want one, but instead of branches I want to find drift wood that can be shaped into a heart. The only driftwood heart I could find online was the one I have a picture of, but I think I just want 2 pieces of driftwood so you can see the ocean through it still. What you girls think?? Also fell in love with the parasol ideas I've seen. I love the thank you ones that people have used, but I think using it in the sand as a sign seemed really cool to me... but I'd definitely be making this myself... I've seen some prices and OUCH. I've seen some how to's on printing and tracing fonts... so maybe that will be what I'll have to do. If you have any how-to's on this I'd love to have the link(s)! I included the pictures of the gazebo we're getting married in and also a picture with a beach wedding... I'll be hanging fabric/tulle in greens and oranges, possibly black from the gazebo as well... And don't forget the shepherd hooks holding my kissing balls lining the aisle! :0) I'm getting excited all over again! |

Candy Apple Buffet
I'm loving this idea!!
Since deciding to move the wedding date back all the fall wedding ideas have been flowing like crazy- I think a fall wedding is really more me and I'm starting to get so excited about all the fall/autumn things I can add to the wedding theme... because it's definitely changing!! I originally wanted an apple/bright green black and white damask prints and ivory accents... and now I think I want to add orange in the mix! :0)
With the candy apple buffet I think it could be fairly cheap and something fun for the kids as well with so many toppings to choose from! Has anyone thought about doing this or has done this? I'm looking for inspiration on what toppings to include and ideas on presentation. |

Some things are looking up..... I guess.
So as many of you may have noticed I haven't been active on here in quite some time. Since we decided to push the date forward because of having to buy a car a lot has been going on and the wedding has been on the backburner.
My last post was me excited about getting the LapBand- well turns out my insurance won't cover it under any circumstances, even because I am getting the surgery to help a genetic condition not caused by being overweight, but definitely worsens with being overweight. I am stuck at home once again in pain and can't work, which makes me zero dollars because there is no such thing as "partial disability". Anyways, FH and I are doing pretty good, we've done a lot of talking and I feel closer than ever. Funny how quickly things can look up after some positive vibes. Everyone around me is getting engaged and pregnant and it's an exciting time right now! FH and I have discussed eventually leaving San Diego and buying a house out of state- but who knows where... this is all way off.. but I'm sick of paying rent in San Diego, when I could be paying the same on a mortgage on my own home somewhere else! Anyways- I think FH and I want to do the courthouse thing.... and then the wedding next fall- Sooo nervous about doing this... but I want to be his wife already! lol Off to wedding searching again.. it's been awhile! |

Big Decision- LapBand!
Weight Loss Surgery
So as I went through the different options I have, I've decided on the LapBand. I'm nervous and scared, but I know it will help me make the healthy lifestyle changes I need to make. I've already gone to my seminar, I just have to fill out a few forms and fax them to the surgeon's office. About a week later I should be setting a consult for surgery and then I will have a one-day class, including insurance and nutritionist information to help plan out my new diet. About 2 weeks after should be my surgery date, I can't wait! Since we've also decided to push our wedding date it gives me time to drop weight and feel great. I've been having FH drag me to the gym.. it's just hard to get in the routine... but I'll get there!
Does anyone have any tips or info? |

New Ideas- Possibly a Fall Wedding?
Since we've decided to put off the wedding...
I've been looking into fall wedding ideas- October is my favorite time of the year, and I'm a huge Halloween fan. I love the colors of fall.. and since we no longer have a date set, I figured I have time to really look into more options. So although it sucks we had to put off the wedding to buy a new car I'm beginning to think I'd much rather have a fall wedding since it's my favorite season. Here's some photos of ideas I've loved!
Pic 1) I'm loving the carved pumpkin ideas for decor! Pic 2) Cranberry Champagne- love it! Pic 3) Using Mason Jars as candle holders... such a cost effective idea! Pic 4) Using a pumpkin as a cooler- how awesome is that? Pic 5) The picture that inspired the fall wedding ideas... I love the different fall colors all of the BMs are wearing! Pic 6) Any one know what these orchards are called? They're crazy looking! Think they'd look funky with calla lilies! Pic 7) Random flower pics... lovin the fresh/cozy feel! |

NWR- Our New Toaster!
The ups and the downs... they never stop coming!
Just a forewarning.. this is going to turn into a rant probably.
Sooo as my last post shows.. we were preparing to postpone the wedding a while because we needed to buy a new car.... and now we will need to hold the wedding off, hopefully not more than 6-9 months, but we'll see. I'm pretty bummed... but also excited because we got a 2006 Scion XB and we love it! Our experience with the dealership was HORRIBLE. FIrst we're told the day after we signed we'd get the car, then the next day they say it just needs the windshield replaced, every time we call we have to deal with some new asshole that has no clue what the hell is going on . So the manager assures us he will call us first thing in the morning... morning comes and go and we still just keep getting their voicemails. Finally the guy who sold us the car gets in and delivers the car to me while I'm at work... like the last 40 mins of my day. I wasn't pissed at the sales guy, because he wasn't there the day everything went sour, but I was so pissed that these people couldn't pick up a phone and communicate with each other and with us, the customers. Then I keep getting random calls about paperwork to furnish to them, in which I had already gave them and even had to give them a paystub TWICE. Then sales guy calls us Friday and says we are getting a better deal and to come re-sign the paperwork- they dropped the price $1600 and extended the loan period. So we're stoked because it's saving us $97 a month. We get there and the asshole manager is trying to use this poor woman as the middle man telling us we need to put another $500 down because he's losing $500 if he sells the car at that price. ARE YOU F-N KIDDING ME? We already traded in my car plus $1100 down payment!!! We of course said hell no and the damn chicken shit wouldn't even face me and my fiance! The woman agreed with each and every single complaint we had with that dealership and she went ahead and had us sign the contract at the lower payments, extended loan period and the $1600 knocked off the price. Needless to say I'm sure the $500 loss will hurt less than my finace's fist would have, but we will be filing a complaint with the BBB and hopefully getting some people disciplined for their BS customer service... aka inconvenience. I'm just happy that the lady let us sign at what was in the computer without the extra cash. I just feel so horrible for having to vent to her... even though I kept apologizing over and over because I knew it wasn't her fault, but the managers. Whew what a week.. I haven't even though about the wedding until today! Back to feelin bummed about putting the wedding off, but oh well.. we got our car! :0) For any brides in SOCAL NEVER EVER go to Pacific Honda! |

Possibly moving back wedding date...
Sometimes life just hands you lemons...
Like my POS car. Today me and FH spent half the day in the ER because he's had flu like symptoms... they do the whole test runs and find nothing.. his fever has even gotten to 103.5 so I'm worried about him.
My car is 10 yrs old nearing 200K miles on it, so of course it's falling apart.. and we need to buy a new one because I'm soooo sick of putting money I don't have into a car. FH and I got to talking while waiting for test results today and decided we may have to move the wedding date back because we know my car isn't going to hang in there for much longer. Half of me is torn up about having to change our wedding date, but the other half is happy we haven't put any deposits down for the big stuff. Since I've been considering weight loss surgery maybe this will give me the opportunity to look and feel my best.. just at a later date. We've also discussed a courthouse wedding and having the "big wedding" later on. This isn't at all how I thought this wedding planning would be, but I'm just glad to have him by my side and we'll get through this... I just wish life was a little easier sometimes. |

Great Damask Finds @ Marshall's!
I went to Marshall's today looking for the Damask bags with initials and was disappointed because they only had 2 letters, only 1 I could use for my bridesmaids so I decided not to get them, so while looking around I found a set of 5 damask hangers for $4.99! I will give the hangers as part of the bridesmaid gifts and use them for a photo opt! :0)
I also found the damask frame for $6.99... excited the trip wasn't useless! lol |
