July '08 NEWLYWEDS chat!

um, excuse me, you'll try?? you mean you WILL! OMG katrina! one month for me and you! ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
i dont think you HAVE to, but personally i will wear another ivory dress later on at my reception, something lighter and easier to move around in. well, unless i end up being way more comfortable in my dress than i think i will if i were you i would wear whatever makes you feel the most like a beautiful brand-newlywed! of course in your case that could be a newspaper and you'd still look fantastic

today i am going shopping for a dress to wear to my shower on saturday, dougs mom's treat! yay!

and yesterday we got one of 2 boxes from OT, just the raffia/shell garland, it's really pretty, much nicer than i was expecting for only $7.

got an email yesterday saying my veil already shipped on the 9th! WOW can we say occansey rules?? i just placed my order friday afternoon! i'll post pics when it arrives, i'm so excited!

Maura, your flowers are lovely!

Katrina, post some pics up for your shower and bachelorette party!

Barefoot, you could always try those pasties that Victoria's Secret sells. backless dresses can be a little tricky. I want to see your dress! Wear whatever color you want to the TTD

katrina, sorry about the delay on your shipping, that is probably totally because of my flowers!!!!!!!! (although it is NOT my fault they made them the wrong color to begin with!)

Yay girls the day is fastly approaching us!!! i can't believe it! hope everyone is ready!!! (Im not) lol

I'm sorry you guys are still looking for your FI's suit. We spent about 2 months looking for the perfect suit for Steve. Neiman's has an AMAZING Armani linen suit that is exclusive to neimans, we went to Armani and they did not have it. It's about $2000 though so we decided against it. Hugo Boss also makes a really nice linen suit, but they sell out quickly for summer. We ended up getting Steve's linen suit at Nordstrom's. Good luck, I hope he finds it soon!!

So far:

 

Order fi wedding band, which was big fuss with him. He want bling , I said no.

The bling band is not his style.

 

My dress is back, did a fitting on monday night

My mom have a dress

BM's have a dress

Fans are back

Honeymoon booked, a gift from my mom

Still looking for cute flip flops, Aldo have a nice selection

I have exactly one month and two weeks! EEEEK!!!!

 

I bought a bunch of OOT bag stuff, my sand from Michael's for sand ceremony and glass vases for ceremony that I need to post on here when I get back home on Friday to see which I should use. Super sale at Pier 1!

 

I bought my shoes today at DSW that I will also post on Friday. I love them! And, they were on sale!

 

I still need a wedding band. I am having a hard time finding one because all I want is a plain one because I don't want it to take away from my E-ring.

 

SOOOOOOOOO much to do!

AHHHHHHHHHH! doug just called and my veil came! i cant wait to get home and see it!

abbie dont forget pics!!!!
