Ask a Question
....about taking off the garter and garter toss..
My fiance does not want to take off my garter in front of all my family and a bunch of people. I think he's just shy or whatever. Do we have to do this part at the reception? Is anyone else not doing it??

Foot Petals Cushions
... for my wedding shoes.
I got some of these foot petals from Bath and Body works awhile back in black and I love them, they really make your shoes more comfortable to where especially when you are in them for a long time. I found these white ones on footpetals.com and I actually just saw them at David's Bridal the other day. I recommend these! They work! They are 12.95 but well worth the money and they last. :)

Crystal Strands for Crystal tree
I found my crystal strands from decoratemywedding.com for a pretty good deal. 10- 6' strands for 18.95 and I ordered two of them. After reading how to make the trees on that site, I'm thinking that should be enough!

Mini chandeliers
I got two of these on ebay for my place card table to go along with my crystal tree. :) They were 3.25 each! I might buy some more later on to decorate other areas for the reception.

Wedding Reception
Great deal on votives at Michaels!!!!
So I went to pick up my bridesmaids dresses today and I said hey, I'm just going to run into Michael's...Just to SEE if they have anything. They have votives, 12 in a pack, candles included for 3.99!!!!! I had wanted them before but they were 7.99 and I didn't want to spend the money, so today I bought them to add to my tables with the damask ones but mostly for my head table! I'm so excited... this is what happens when you DON'T actually look for anything. lol
Here are some pics also of head table ideas I saw that I liked and wanted to do. Thank you to other brides for inspiration! |

Ask a Question
Place card holders
I love these place card holders and they would match my cake serving set but they are SO EXPENSIVE!! Anyone see these on another website for cheap? Or is anyone selling any of these?

Honeymoon
Mini moon to... VEGAS!!
After a couple months of searching and searching, we've decided after paying for our wedding ourselves, a mini-moon would be best for now and take our actual honeymoon on our 1 year anniversary. That way we can save more money and not be in debt. I was kind of "if"fy about Vegas but after looking up the top 10 romantic honeymoons in the united states... Vegas was #2 on the list. LOL
Now starts the planning! I'm so excited we've finally make this decision. |
