i like these 3: get a bunch of those mardi gras beads from a party store and pass them out as people arrive, 3 or 4 per person?? everytime someone is overheard saying works like "Bride", or grooms name (just pick 2 or 3 commonly said words at a bridal shower so it doesnt get too confusing) the person who caught the word gets to take beads from the person who said the word. at the end whoever has the most beads wins a prize. have the hostess give the groom a questionaire (ahead of time)with short answer questions on it like his favorite color, favorite vacation, childhood nickname, etc. then people take turns asking the bride the ?? and she has to get them right. another fun one is toilet paper wedding gown fashion show. teams of 2 or 3 have to design and dress one girl in a toilet paper gown! time limit 3 minutes or so, pretty funny. everyone votes on the winner. dont forget pics!

erin, everything looks great! i cant believe time has flown by so fast

thanks for the instructions! love it!

ok alyssa and jamy, you both made me smile for the rest of the day love it

oh that is such a fun idea! especially since your AHR is at a chinese place, right?? how about "you will find luck in your TV". ok kinda lame but i just asked dougs son and thats what he came up with haha. oh i have also seen really pretty dipped fortune cookies, with colored candy coating on half and sprinkles and such. also OT has pretty silver ones, if you are going for broke with the big bucks. but i like your idea best, just throwing ideas out there.

yay woo! that is so exciting! i am so happy for you girls! ooh, what are they in charge of?? something new??

kind of hard to see but these are mine. i've had similar issues with people asking stupid questions like "i thought you were getting married on a lake" and things like that. also, there is a line to check off to the left of the wording, most of the people havent checked it off. to the right i got smart and put (YES) and (NO) to idiot-proof the response, but most people have circled this part. the best ones are when you sent an invite to Grandpa Vic (and no other names, not even guests) and you get a reply card back for Grandpa Vic, Keith, Kimberly, Josh and Leah. dougs uninvited uncle and his family are coming to mine. we didnt invite any of his extended family because he has 29 cousins on his moms side alone, and that is the small side. how do you choose? when do you stop? i guess you dont, haha, they decide for you. so, yari my dear, i feel for you. i am completely in your boat. but not literally, its not a real boat. so dont call me to ask me if i meant i was getting on a boat with you.

wow you and your family are so gorgeous! i LOVE the pic of you mom and sis looking so bright and colorful!

couple more pics for the night my current project: TY tags for our Tapatio bottle favors! yes, i am using a CM shape cutter and doing each one (144 total!) by hand since i couldnt find the right size paper punch in any store nearby and im internet shopped-out for now the aqua circles i had a punch for, so much faster! 4 of my unconventional BM! the far right is my MAoH not pictured, my BFF and MToH.

It has the 3/8 ribbon on it and is shoulder length.....I need to think about this one. i decided against the embellishments or edging. i almost did a 1/8" satin ribbon, but i couldnt decide if i should get it in ivory or champagne, so i got nothing so i wouldnt be mad about the color i like how sheer it looks without anything. maura's is so gorgeous tho, i really had to stop myself from copying and ending up with another long veil i dont want

oh maura i forgot, my shower dress is from jc pennys, i dont know how much it was cause i didnt look at the tag, BUT they are having a huge sale, so i think it was around $40. the brand is "my michelle" and its cotton with a poly underslip sewn in, and the stretchy crinoline stuff layered underneath.

wow why is it still so long?? its gorgeous, tho amy! love it! i so so so love the sweetheart you had done. awesome

maura! oh no! you and erin both, WTF?? that is so not exciting i'm so sad about you both. but, yet another reason i am LOVING my corset back. altho when i went for my final fitting, my underskirt barely zipped! because i had been working out my back so much, the muscle was thicker than the chub had been so i stopped working out! not cool. but now the skirt fits again.

haha, i think maura might be on the colonix already. actually i havent seen that thread lately, what gives??

thanks! i do to

lizz, you TOTALLY have to get him a couple backups from silver depot, we just got dougs in the mail today. here's pics, the quality is just as nice as the $150 ones we were looking at at the same place we got my e-ring, Engagement Rings - Diamonds - Wedding Rings - Fine Jewelry at The Shane Company - Shane Co. total for 8 rings including shipping was less than $50!! anyways, here's the silver depot ones! (all 4 are titanium, and each was less than $6.00) all 4 on dougs hairy finger all 4 on my pretty hand, for a different angle his favorite, black, probably for more of a dressy look, or just not everyday, anyways everyday ring pics of the 2 with my set i'm so excited!
