Shoes

My Shoes

Ordered them in from Payless... I don't have many choices since I wear a size 12 in women's, and wide width. lol But, all in all, I love the shoes and they are very pretty. Ordering in white satin.

Wedding Dress

Dream Dress

I was a little leary ordering from a company in China. My first step was to do extensive research and make sure there wasn't even a hint of sweat shop going on here... then when I was confident of that, I thought... a dress that MSRPs for $1300 for $200... but I thought, what the hell. I can tell you this... the picture for this dress, from their site which are the first two, do not do this dress justice!!! It is amazingly beautiful. So, if you are a budget bride, I recommend this site... they have hundreds of style and make the dress to measurment btw... since it fits like a glove.

Wedding Cake

The cake!

So we picked the cake, and booked the baker. lol All this cake is running about $360 including delivery plus the groom's blueberry cheesecake. He picked the cake. I'm rather proud of him. The tiers will have large faux diamonds in beds of silver and royal blue ribbon curls.

Wedding Planner

Picked a Planner

Her name is Charlotte Kimball, and she's local. The planning fee is $400 and it includes the whole shebang, including decor, veil, and flowers... So, quite a steal IMO. SOOO excited! :-D

Favors

Wedding favors

So this is the wedding favor I have picked out. I can go with hershey's kisses for the silver, blue/white spoons and blue/white ribbon. I like the idea because it's adorable and not many people have this.

Here's what the attached card will say...

"We thank you for coming,
with a spoonful of kisses,
to bless our beginning,
as Mr. and Mrs.!"

Wedding Decoration

Diamond BLING!

So here's the confetti I want for the tables. I'm not much on flowers so I'm still trying to come up with a unique centerpiece. I was thinking about something maybe with our intial and ribbons, glitter, silver twigs or something... perhaps glass bowls with floating candles since it's a night reception.

Planning

Here we go...

WOWZA!!! So yeah... just joined the site and I had to notice that the wedding is 155 days away and I have like NOOOO idea on stuff yet. I have a general idea of what I want, but the future hubby and I just keep shifting gears. I'm so nervous... So, what do you other ladies do to stay cool?

Btw, the colors are cobalt blue, silver and white. I know for a fact that one thing I want to incorporate are some cute diamond confettis I found, so with that in mind can any of you ladies help me think of a central theme. Bling bling? Mafia? Erm.. I just don't know.

Oh, I forgot to mention my $5000 budget...
