Here is one of you were already a member of dogster.com Shutterfly Jump Zone on Dogster One if you were already a member of yahoo photos http://closing.photos.yahoo.com All the deals that didn't require you already be a member of something are expired. More pop up all the time.

I think it would be nice. People are not likely to want to look through an album with 100s of photos, but a nice coffee table book that just shows the main stuff is fun to browse through. I get the shutterfly photobooks free all the time from various deals. I just ordered one of our engagement pics & dating pics for my grandma. I'm working on one now to use as a guestbook. I'll search to see if I can find more free deals. If so, there is no reason not to make it

I want to keep the wording on my STDs really casual, kind of like I would write on a post card. But, I find stuff like this really hard to commit to. I overthink it & want it to sound just right. So I'd love to get opinions. Here is the wording: We are getting married in Riviera Maya, Mexico on June 21, 2008! If you would like to join us in Mexico, we would love to celebrate our wedding day with you. We will also have celebrations in Texas and North Carolina after the wedding. All the details are available on our website. Best Wishes, Mike & Morgan Formal invitation to follow. This is what the front of our STD looks like (thanks to Sarah), but it also has the website url on the bottom.

I can't stand the feel of bangs, but I know I'd look better with them. For updos, I just have them brush it to the side, but it's still pulled back. Make sense? I'll look for a picture. -
Our wedding is in June. I sent out our website in july as sort of a save the date. I mailed print outs of it to a few family members who don't have internet. I'm working on STD postcards to send out by october. They are super cheap from vista print. Otherwise I might not have made them. I put engagment pics on the front so I thought it would be a fun way to share those with people. My formal invite will probably be the invite to the after honeymoon reception. It will also have the wedding date & location on there, but the wording will be such that's it's an invitation to the after party. That way I feel comfortable sending them to everyone, not just people planning to go to mexico. In the state I live in now we'll do a casual after party that will be just friends. I'll just do an evite for that.

I don't know if shutterfly has that feature. Setting up a photobucket.com account is really easy. You just copy & paste the "IMG" text & your picture shows up. -

I knew that's why you said to put it in an envelope, but I wanted to make sure she understood why. I never knew there was a size minimum to mail until someone posted it recently. I had thought about the business cards as my RSVP card. A nice thing about using a postcard as a STD or reply card is that the stamps are only 23 cents. It has to be the standard size postcard. Starting the website was a little overwhelming, but I'm so glad I have it. My guest love it. If you want I can send you mine & you can "borrow" whatever you want. I did a lot of copying & pasting from other peopls website to make it. I think it takes some time in the beginning, but saves you time in the end. There are a lot of great free websites too so even if you decide you don't want to use it a lot, you didn't lose anything.

I noticed mere minutes after submitting my order and you cannot cancel once submitted. So while that is entirely my fault, just beware that you can't cancel. Also, I got an email from them today for 100 postcards for .77. Let's see if this link works for you... PM me if it doesn't and I will email you the email from them. VistaPrint - Business Cards - Full Color Printing - Digital Printing Company | VistaPrint It's doesnt offer me the postcards for 77cents when I click that link. I'll PM you my email. I wonder why I don't get their emails? I requested the free sample pack.

And since we changed our date I had to redo them 2 more times (once cause i was an idiot) anyway by the third order they gave me EVERYTHING for free! It was great! I'll send it to you tonight. It's on my computer at home. I thought I had heard people say something about 100 free postcards. Is that offer gone? I got one for 50 free large postcards, but I want the standard size. 1/2 price stamps!!

How do you clean your ring?

Quote: Originally Posted by starfish kate I'd be a little weary about just dropping your ring off... It doesn't take long and they usually do it in front of you if you want. I'd wait and watch them do it. Maybe I'm paranoid, but I'd be afraid that they'd replace my diamond with a cubic.... My stone is a moissanite, but I still wouldn't want them to swap it out with a CZ. I could tell the difference though. -

In the end, after writing the names out, i think i would have skipped the 3 address lines... or made them longer! If you want I can send you what we used. Just let me know. Did you have to pay 2 upload fees that way? Might be worth it though if it's the only way to avoid their templates. I could use cool fonts then, too. Yes, I would appreciate if you can send it to me. I'll PM you my email address. Thanks!

How do you clean your ring?
rodent replied to rodent's topic in Destination Wedding Dresses, Wedding Attire & rings
I think it's fine to clean it often. It's polishing you want to only do 1-2 times a year. A friend in a lab near mine cleans her's in their sonicator. I think that's the same as the ultrasonic jewelry cleaners. I need to see if I can make the same set up in my lab, or take it to her's. The sonicators are cheap on ebay (~$30). DIGITAL ULTRASONIC CLEANER JEWELRY WATCH DIAMOND DENTAL - (eBay item 220146055899 end time Sep-05-07 09:45:00 PDT) Anyone know if something like this is any good? I'm heading to the mall this weekend, so i'll just drop it off some place. I think just about any store will do it for free to get you in the door. I just wanted to know what to do on my own. I don't go to the mall that often. -
