yeah i think we are deciding to only have flowers for me, the bridesmaids, and matt. flowers are so overpriced and i just cant bring myself to spend a lot on them!

oh i would LOVE that if you dont want to keep them- especially the parasols- i relaly just want at least 3 for pics. but we are both doing the red roses- we could SO share costs on flowers if our dates were closer together. i am still deciding about flowers- i know bouquets we are going with dreams. are you doing boutineres for the boys? what about for the moms?

The total came to just over a hundred dollars and included shipping. The parasols are soooo cool! They are 42 inches in diameter and are the dramatic size I was looking for. I'm having these handed out to my guests as they enter the ceremony area. I only planned for one per couple since they're so huge! ahhhh- sarah there are so many things that we want the same that i really wish our wedding dates were closer together because we could share a lot of stuff!!!!!!!!

yeah tammy- i figured it may not make much of a difference but just thought i would ask. also- did you do a different meal for them? i will email mariana and see what she says

freeze dried- i ordered a free sample last night but it may take 2 weeks. how do they look? good enough to be on the tables

a bride from the old forum (MRSMAIZE, i think thats right) used these: Silk Rose Petals & Freeze Dried Rose Petals - Petal Garden and i cant decide what i think about them- do you guys think they would look totally fake? has anyone used them?

Cabo Dreams Brides: I was wondering if they were giving (or gave) you a discount for children for the meal/set-up? i havent thought to ask- but i thought i would check with yall first. also- are yall doing a kids table? what all are you putting on it? is it safe to let 10 kids sit alone??

yeah i am planning on costco- i just need plain red roses- simple enough, right? i just know that the day that i need them they womt have any and then i would be screwed.................surely they ALWAYS have red roses right? also- what if we dont have a costco membership? cant you pay to get in?

did she deliver or did you have to go get them? what is a bunch? how far is it if you had to go get them?

such a good idea- i am trying to add to my recipe collection. let me see what i have........

seriously at least $6-$8/invite- its the time that would cost you the most- not the actual supplies. i love them

i love those!!! you should go into business because i know people would pay good money for invites that cool- way to go!

kate- let me know what flower cart says because i am having the same problem

glenda- you are so funny- but i totally agree with you- i think just let your family spread the word

i had a dream last night that after i get my dress latered i will hate it and be sad to wear it.........

great great great review! i love the idea of someone saying grace- so beautiful!

yeah glenda!!!!!! you are going to do great- just be your lovely self. and by the way i love that part on mean girls!

tammy- where did you get a bustier? i might need that for some extra suport............

jessalyn- what a relief for you! i am going to go in the next week or two and hopefully mine will be low- all this talk makes me realize how many wedings we have coming up in may and june- its going to be crazy!
