Welcome Crystal! AS a pilot, I am sure you will both be busy bees up until the wedding! I'm in Greenville, SC, just down the interstate from you ... and it sounds like we are getting a decent group of NC/SC BDW's ... so we may have to pull together a cocktail session!! Cheers!

I think Jessica is onto something - sitting in cold water... but of course you couldn't read the forum as well zzaapp ... electrocuted from havingmy computer in my lap in the cold bath water. lol I'm from the DC area but moved down here for work nack in '99 and LOVE it. My FI moved here from Jersey for college (Furman) and stayed ever since also. We LOVE Greenville ... and nw owning an oyster bar means we probably won't be leaving anytime soon. Definitely look me up! Would love to meet up with some BDW here in what we like to call G-Vegas.

I just keep thinking that my FI is still in Iraq in 115+ heat, so I guess to him what I'm dealing with IS like having A/C. lol...

Oh yeah! I remember seeing you post that before (Spigel Farms in Campobello, right?) Awesome! Let me know if you are ever back for a visit! And thanks for the fan!!! Oh how I need it! lol.

My sister is in Greer by the airport, wonder if they were affected. hehe ... the joys of my FI owning a bar! :-) I doubt your sister is. I'm downtown and everything was fine untl my street and past it ... so it must be something isolated. probably an accident that took down a portion of the grid. Still ... ugh... Are you from the area or did your sis move here? I've been here since 1999.

Thta's awesome!!! Your wedding is just a month before mine and you are ahead of me, sister! :-) Keep us posted and post some pics of what you've got!!

Ugh! Got home from my 2nd job about 1/2 hour ago ... to find a blackout in the area. It is ssoo hot in this house I want to DIE. And, my computer is running on battery fumes now ... but I had to log on (thank goodness for Verizon Wireless Broadband!). lol... I hope the power comes back on soon or I will melt. Guess I shoulda stayed at work and had a beer...

Can't wait to see! So jealous of you ladies who got a sneak peek!!

We are having a heck of a time deciding where to have the reception though. I am hoping that with all the wonderful information that is in this forum, we will be able to pick the perfect spot for us. I hope everyone is doing well! Congrats to all you brides out there. Melissa Hey Melissa! Welcome! Where in DC are you from? That's where I was born and raised. Mom and Dad just sold their house on the Potomac in Fort Washington to move full time to Ocean City..

Yeah! Love them, love them, love them! Can't wait to see the rest!!!

Hi ladies! Those of you who bought the clear luggage tags ... what kind of price did you find them for? I need about 100+.

I haven't had any problems...

Great job! I hope I have as mucb patience when it comes time to do all of mine!

I've been bad. I need a spanking ... but luckily I can wait ***2 1/2 weeks*** until Tom FINALLY comes home from Iraq. So, I guess I'll get my spanking then and let him help whip me back into shape.

Quote: Originally Posted by PaulaV Cool! I am still looking for something like this. Good to know this seller has your approval. Yes, they are very nice ...

But, again, I have no problem telling my BM's that they're "look-alikes." :-)

Very cool! Was finally able to watch it all! Love the mariachi music ... but everything was beautiful. (And I did see Tammy and Edyta!) Did you give them suggestions for what to play or just let them handle it whatever way they wanted? I didn't hear the Wedding March (which I don't want).

hhmm... mine sound/look just the same except they have the T&Co. engraved on the back also. So many knock-offs out there I guess, huh? I say leave them in the boxes (the boxes and pouches are too cute) and just tell them they're knock-offs b/c you couldn't afford a $200 necklace). I know I would understand that!!! :-)

It gives me an idea how much florist OVERCHARGE for vases! This is GREAT Amy! I can use this site for those clear, square plastic vases I need and the stones and Lord knows what else. The prices are fabulous! Thanks for finding this!

Quote: Originally Posted by Julesr I posted a thread awhile back asking you all to vote on the necklace I should pick for my BM's. http://bestdestinationwedding.com/fo...ce-my-bms.html Well, I got them in the mail today. I LOVE THEM!!! I ordered the one you guys told me too, I ordered 5, 1 for myself as well, and they cost $10 each. This is them They are waaaaay nicer in person and really great quality. I got them off ebay and the seller's name is *pafasus* I only have 1 complaint, they come in these cute little boxes and pouches, but those boxes and pouches say Tiffany & Co. on them. They came from Hong Kong, so I know they are not from Tiffany's. I have no idea what to do about that cause it looks so cute altogether, but I do not want my BM's to think they are actually from Tiffany's, cause they are not. So, I have to figure out what to do. Someone, I can't remember who, acutally asked if they were Tiffany knockoffs in the other post and I said no they were not. Well, they knew something I did not, cause that is apparently what they are. They are great quality and the chains are soo nice, I thought I was going to have to buy new ones, so that is great. But now I think I have to buy something to put them in. I do love them though and reccomend them. They only took about 10 days to get to me. I got these VERY same necklaces, but mine have a black cord (which I know isn't something Tiffany's has) ... and they too, came in the Tifany Box w/ the care card and everything. I am going to give 2 of these to BM's (b/c I am trying to personalize the gifts) but I think I will tell them they are NOT Tiffany's ... (they know I'm a huge eBay fan.) ... although since I have never gotten anything from Tiffany's, I thought maybe it was when I opened the package. Too good to be true for $4.99 each. Do yours have "T&Co. 925" engraved on the back too?

I really like the CustomInk.com site too. Very helpful to see your design on the product before ordering!

Quote: Originally Posted by KRISTEN My dress is ivory and I have been having a hard time finding shoes.

I decided on 3 inch heels. I have not been able to find shoes that I like so I have been looking online. I ordered these today and if I like I will have dyed ivory. I love these! They will look fabulous dyed ivory. I wish I could wear some like those ... but my dress is so very close to perfect in length ... the bridal shop suggested I ge a small platform heel to avoid extra alterations. Luckily I found a pair I love. Quote: Originally Posted by Carolena7 okay, let me try this again from earlier in the post...I think I got this picture thing figured out. Those are really cute! And they look super comfy! Do you have your dress yet?
