Thank goodness!!! I was just about to cut the credit card up! Not that it would have mattered since I know the # by heart! But really, thanks for all the ideas. And yes, I'm tempted to get the tissues but I KNOW FI would be like "are you serious"?

WHY WHY WHY are you torturing me with good ideas!!! Sighhh.... Darn you LadyCheese!!! LOL...I will resist the urge to order. I will be strong. I WILL.

Thats great that she loved it. I'm having a real hard time trying to figure out what to get my mom & FI's mom! FI is absolutely no help. Once I saw these I really thought they were nice, especially all of the poems. So I'll prob get these & something else. Funny thing is, when I went to pick up my dress, they had the same hankies by the register!!! I couldn't believe it. For some reason they didn't seem as nice as they do online so I'm still tempted to get them online.

TIA I bookmarked this site & had them in mind Wedding Handkerchiefs, Wedding Favors, Party Favors, Bridal Party Gifts, Wedding Accessories, Wedding Advice - all in our online store

Quote: Originally Posted by LadyCheese The ribbon is seperate but I wonder if you can get the printed ribbon elsewhere for much less. (?) I remember I went to Party City a while back and they do printed ribbons like that for favors, etc...and it was pretty cheap. I too like the ribbon but I'm on a time constraint & I'm going to just use my own. But since you said that, I may go check out Party City. For those interested in ordering it keep in mind that according to the site it takes 10 days alone to process the order for the personalized ribbon, not including weekends or holidays. Also, that's not including shipping time which is additional days. Quote: Originally Posted by LadyCheese Alyssa does makes a good point...they would also look pretty sitting on each place setting as opposed to a favor table (IMO) Yeah, I agree.

Quote: Originally Posted by Alyssa well, IMHO, if it is for a dinner, you are better off not doing favors if you can not do one per person. also - if you do one per person and put them at each place setting, you will save money on having a favor table (linen, decorating, table rental, etc) Great point Alyssa...I'll probably just put them on each setting.

Quote: Originally Posted by md_ocr Do these come with the ribbon also? No the ribbon is separate: shown tied in our Continuously Printed Ribbon in Chocolate Brown with Brilliant Magenta (Pink) text color - cut into 30" long strands (50 yard spool of ribbon can wrap 60 pouches) Continuously Printed Ribbon sold separately.

Quote: Originally Posted by Alyssa well, if it is for OOT Bags, then i would do one per bag (I am doing one bag per couple and 1 bag per individual if guests are coming solo but sharing rooms). If it is for rehearsal dinner or reception, then i would suggest 1 favor per plate. For OOT bags, I'm doing 1 per couple. These bags would be for favors at the reception. I wasn't going to put them on each plate but was considering having a favor table. The problem with that is that if I just left them out, I'd think that each person would probably take 1, not thinking they are supposed to be 1 per couple!!! So I guess either way you look at it, I'd be better off doing 1 per person even though that's not quite what my pockets had in mind! Ok, I just re-ran my #'s and technically there's not really a big difference if I give out 1 favor per person. So, I guess thats what I'm going to do. I'm definitely going to have to show FI these #'s cuz I'm not going to hear the end of it from him!!! Thanks for your input!!!

Not too hijack, but a quick question...in terms of couples, is it 1 favor per couple or 1 per person?

Not cheesy at all. My girlfriend gave out CD favors at her wedding, which wasn't a DW!

Very very cute! You've got me thinking now!!! Gotta go see if I can find a coupon code! Thanks for sharing!

I too say keep your plans. If he knows your date is already set, why in the hell would he want to schedule his wedding 1 month before yours? Also, your plans are already made, his are "in the making". Why rearrange your plans for something thats still an "idea"? Lets say you changed your date just to avoid the conflict of his "potential" date & for whatever reason his plans fall through? Then you did all of that for nothing & you could've kept your original date! I say he better consider himself lucky that you're even thinking about this and go about his merry way with a date after yours!

Looked great! Love the theme & decorations, especially those centerpieces with the shells-that was really cute!

If you feel that you're going to cry or be catty, then don't go. If its not in your heart & you're not feeling it, then don't bother. Why go & be misearble? It seems like you're going thru enough with this situation so don't put yourself through additional stress! Do something else enjoyable that day & don't think twice about not being there.

Savannah, although I still can't quite figure out what I'm gonna do, all of your advice is great. Now if only I could just hire you & bring you to JA with me!?!?!? LOL...I'd have no worries about my hair at all!

Our plane was super small, so there was no way it would fit in the overhead bin. On the second plane, it would have fit just fine in the bin, but they offered again for the cockpit after I asked and everything was fine:) So I may have to shed a few tears huh? Thats fine with me! Quote: Originally Posted by Jenn I asked for a second bag from the bridal salon and just double bagged it. It did just fine. We carried it - well DH carried it - over his arm. It went folded in half in the overhead cabin. I think I will double it, just for my own sanity. And I already know that FI is gonna have the pleasure of carrying it. I'm not going to be able to manage. I just hope he carries it "neatly"! Quote: Originally Posted by LALA I just bought a white flat sheet and wrapped it around my dress inside the bag. Ohhh....good idea! Thanks again ladies. I feel much better now knowing that I'm not crazy thinking that I should take some extra precaution. The bag they gave me just feels too flimsy & lord knows I don't need any accidents to happen to it while in transit. Talk about bridezilla!!!! I think you'd all hear about me on the news!!!
