i can't add anything that the other girls haven't already said - go for the fake, it's what's between you two that count. maybe someday it can be a special present you decide to get!

I figure why spend so much on something I don't know much about or appreciate yet. I like the idea of getting my ring for an anniversary! JEN have you posted a picture of your ring - i totally want to see it!

Leigh. We need to talk. You are currently on a forum with hundreds of brides, real ones, EXCITED ones, who would jump at the chance to play dress up and be photographed by you! you could have just brought any of us with you. silly girl!

i just want to pinch both of your cheeks! you two are too cute. honestly, you both seem so happy -and that's refreshing. congratulations again, and continue to share your great energy, and, of course, pictures!

I thought they'd be there, or maybe it was just Matt. or maybe someone else completely, i have no idea! be sure to get some cool ideas for albums, because now i am thinking i really want one ... darn budget! Quote: Originally Posted by CABOBRIDE200 ooooo. I really like that idea! Do you think they'd all do it?? LOL Did I mention how lucky I am? I actually contacted Sol about a year ago about shooting my wedding, but she had some residency issues because of her wedding and said she wouldn't be working during the time of my wedding. So, I could've almost used her too. Looks like I have good taste in photographers though, eh? yea ya do, no arguement there!

hey - you're hogging all the BDW photographers! maybe you could get Sol and Matt to do some engagement pics, get Bradley to shoot your WD, and get Cooper to photograph the day after! what an album! it would be like a "best of" book!

oh my gosh - that's Mon already?!!? i can't wait to see - i hope you share just a little! you guys will have a blast. who else is doing it - i remember there was at least 1 other person.

oh yea - i absolutely used scratch paper until i got it right. i would have gone broke using my "good" paper!

Well, I'm just glad I came across her (can't even remember where I originally got her name) - it all worked out well for me! And now I am glad she's able to work with some other girls on this forum too. It's kind of nice to be able to talk to your photographer and instead of saying something like " ... so there's this forum I am on, and this one girl said ... " I am lucky enough to be able to say "... did you see what Tammy said today on the forum" - and she knows what I am talking about! Ahhh - simple pleasures. Did you end up booking with Leigh?

i honestly don't see any issue w/having different #s on each side ! i say have whoever you want in your wedding, that's what it's about -not having "matching" numbers!

yowsers ... do you have back pain? not being funny - seriously! i know that even sometimes i get rad marks on my shoulders from where teh bra straps dig in. i hate that!

tammy your dress should hopefully fit you well enough that once you add the cups, the support is almost built into the dress. i am a little freaked out about this myself, since the sample fit me weird - i was constantly tugging at it. this was one reason i was scared to get a strapless dress - but i am hoping it all fits well once it's made for me!

Quote: Originally Posted by TAMMYM I could but I'm so afraid it won't give me the support I'm looking for. That's why I wanted a backup plan just in case.. BTW Ann I found out that I wasn't a 34C by getting re-measured, apperently that's why the bra kept falling down. I bet you have the same issue as I do, besides your my long lost sister so it would only make since if that was the case.. :-) i did that once too - a little while ago, so i should probably have it redone. i was wearing a 36C and they told me i was a 34C. i should really get remeasured though!

i dont have an answer to your ultimate question (I'm a 34C gal), but I too have a problem w/strapless bras sliding. Which is why I am choosing to get cups sewn into my dress - can you do that?

i don't think it has to be even. you could have all the girls you want, and he can have the boys. or you could have his sis stand on his side too.

what a relief, that's awesome!
