The Savannah view is awesome! DUH it would make sense if it was called the animal kingdom lodge.....idk, my friends loved it and didn't mention poop, so maybe it was just the monorail!
  2. more more more more more!!!!! the pics are so beautiful! your wedding party was enormous!
  3. YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i'm so happy to hear that he's home!!!!!!!!!!! WOOHOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Have you thought about leaving it down for the ceremony and then maybe doing a "costume change" and having it put up for the reception. Or vice versa. You really do have gorgeous curls. It would be cool to see them done a couple different ways. i like this idea - i love the pic of the hairstyle, and you could always put a few pins into the bottom to put your hair up! your curls are nice i'm always jealous of ppl who have curly hair w/ no frizz - i just look like a puff ball
  6. awesome - thanks for the review! i dont think there's anyone here who has actually gotten married at dreams pv!!!!!!
  7. i thought you were going to grab the entire first layer of the cake!!!!!! beautiful pics!
  8. we went in november and we stayed at the hilton lake buena vista, which is on disney property but not owned by disney. it was on the less expensive side, and perfect b/c it was right across the street from pleasure island and downtown disney. my sister just went in april and stayed at the contemporary ... said it was nice, but i didn't get more info that that...we also have friends who stayed at the animal kingdom hotel (can't remember name) - they loved it, but i can't imagine staying there ... you get on a monorail that comes from animal kingdom it smells like elephant poop, let alone stay in a hotel around there?!!? either way, i'm jealous - disney is SO much fun!

  10. i have found that the knot if good for ideas, searching for vendors, or hairstyles, etc...this forum is much nicer and better and cooler and kinder and awesomer and neater and friendlier and ... well you get the point!
  11. mine was $510 in the store but $407 online (see bartering thread!!!)...after alterations and whatnot it'll probably be $600, which is about what i had planned on.

  13. we're going to do the luggage tags, really nice ones from cb2.com... do you think i should do one per couple, or one per person? we're also doing oot bags, pashminas, tshirts for the men, etc....i think i answered my own ??!

  15. Quote: Originally Posted by Chiquita Yes, I quite like your brochure idea. Did you make that up yourself or get it professionally done? If it's not too difficult I would totally do this myself to save on some money.. my fi is into graphic design, so he made it up and had it printed on vistaprint...i think it cost $80 for 100 of them? maybe less, i dont remember...i totally could have done it and i'm not that creative...it just wouldn't look as good as his!
  16. i think oct. would be fine, and if you're concerned, send out a reminder email/note... we printed out tri-fold brochures w/ our save the date cards and sent them all together...the brochure had info about the hotel, the town, a letter saying we want you there, and the words to our song (to take up space)...that way there wasn't too much info on our std cards AND i won't have to deal w/ 1000 phone calls w/ questions....i hope.....
  17. i did all ivory b/c i couldn't make a decision. i wanted all of them
  18. hey melissa, i've seen it done tons of different ways, but the easiest is a light bulb wrapped in something....we're not religious at all, and we'ld be breaking the glass for our parents....so i think we're going to use a colored bulb wrapped in a cloth napkin and after, put the glass pieces into whatever we use for our sand ceremony...our ceremony will be on the beach, so we have to figure out what kind of hard surface to put down in order for it to break...... oh some people take the glass and have it made into the outside of a mezzuzah (sp?)....i'm sure you could do lots of different craft-like things w/ it - melt it into part of a menorah base, sedar plate, etc.
  19. ok here's mine about 4 seconds after he proposed: and a similar one from google (my setting is a tiny bit different): middle carat 1.7, 5 little princesses on each side, total 2.0
  20. that's what i figured....i'm trying to get answers for available decor so i can bring things w/ me if need be....i kinda think that w/ 7 months to go (and only being engaged for 4 weeks!!!!), i'm in relatively good shape. excellent. i feel much more secure about my choice.
  21. i checked out the website, but i think that's where i got confused.... if i have my hair/makeup/catering from dreams, and my photog./welcome bags/travel assistance/music/other vendors/etc. done myself, then all i need is decorations, which the dreams WC should take care of , and therefore don't need an outside WC...right?
  22. dont know if you've seen these before but i love these two sites....always crack me up! Stuff On My Cat: Stuff + Cats = Awesome Stuff On My Mutt: Stuff + Mutts = Awesome
