Nov 08 brides

Thanks! I liked it and figured that it was a dress that I could take down to the Dominican to wear too!

I don't know what i'm going to do with myself after the wedding. Maybe my house will be clean again. lol

Tara those earrings are very nice.

Erica great pics on the legal day thread.

Okay...I didn't show up empty handed today...here's some pics from my Friday night out and Saturday assembly party at my house. I'll apologize in advance for some of the blurs.

 

 

Me and my best friend Erica (MOH) at the bar. This was 2 hours after being caught in a flash flood! My hair was a mess from getting out of the car twice in the rain! We had a good time!

 

 

Here's my group! (front row) - daughter Jada in pink tank, BM Irene, (back row) Me in orange tank, BM Melissa and MOH Erica at the end.

 

 

Here's our lunch...some of it! The salad got a little overmixed - oh well, it was still good!

 

Here's my daughters flip flops. Her's are white because both of the kids are wearing white.

 

Here's the back - I put an E on the back of both of ours as we are both changing our last names. It's kind of a symbolic thing for me and her.

 

 

Here's my flip flops - mine are ivory to match my dress.

 

 

The back of mine with the E on them.

 

 

My tears of joy packets - sorry for the bad pic - it has our logo on it and says "For your tears of joy".

 

 

Here's the huge tag for our OOT bags. I am going to tie them on the side of the bag where there is nothing embroidered. Aaaah...I just realized I don't have a pic of my OOT bags. I'll have to get you guys one. I thought they were too big, but everyone insisted I keep them. I ordered them from Vistaprint and thought they were smaller.

the flip flops came out great. What did you use to make the tears of joy packets? I like that idea.

 

what do you think is huge the oot bag or the luggage tags? If the luggage tags are the vista print standard postcards I think they would work fine. If they are a little big, they will be seen a lot better when people are looking for their luggage.

I think that is so sweet that your daughter is also changing her lastname. Now that we are legally married, some people have asked if I am changing my name, but I am waiting until after the DW.

 

Everything looks great Celena! The shoes, the tears of joy packets, the oversized luggage tags LOL and of course the food.

AHHHH dang it Celina, I cant see the pics, I will have to look when I get home. Grrr!

You need to get your work to allow you to see pictures!!!

Celina, you stuff looks awesome! i love the flip flops

Thank you! For the Tears of joy packets I used trading card envelopes from oriental trading and Avery clear labels and just stuck them on. The envelopes don't have anything sticky on them to close so I used glue to close the envelope. I put three tissues from some Puffs travel size tissues in each envelope. I want to put them on the chairs with our program fans (which I forgot to take pics of too)

I am using the cards to tie onto the OOT bags (not luggage). Some of the bags have different stuff in them so I want to make sure people get the right bags. On the backside of the card it says "This bag was made with love for"...and there is a spot to write their name. Actually, I may just take a sheet of labels and stick them in the spot where their name is since I have horrible handwriting.

Thank you! Yes, she already calls herself Jada Ellis at school. I am having a hard time accepting the fact that I have to change my name. Boo hoo!

It is like both her and I are getting married. LOL! It was just her and I for 5 years before Shawn came into the picture. Now we are both taking the plunge! Jada and I have a very special bond. She is a total momma's girl!

Yours are Givenchy (or something like that) right? That's what these are. I got them at Dillards for $50.

 

Damn, we don't have Dillard's here. I will have to check out Von Maur, but I don't remember seeing the ones you have.

Yay pics! THe flip flops are really cute. I like the luggage tags. I have been wanting to do a postcard to include in our OOT bags with the photoshare website info on it, but haven't had a chance to work on that. Where did you get the pic that you used?

Tara - Love, love, love your earrings! I must head to Dillard's soon!

 

Erica - Love the flowers from your legal day! Especially the one in your hair!

 

We got invites out last week and 61 people have already booked. Holy crap!

 

We picked out wedding bands on Monday, too.

 

Other than that, I'm just trying to survive at work.

 

I hope all of you are doing well!
