So far I have finished the Thank you cards for my FSIL. I am starting the Thank yous for my friends shower next. I want to make them different though since some people will be at both showers. I found that program but it is like 80.00. I downloaded the trial from hallmark and I can "weld" George font. It seems pretty neat. I have to wait a while before I get that though since i have spent a bunch of money lately.

That is awesome!

Have you seen this? I want to see if I can have my monogram done. This is pretty cheap don't you think? Etsy :: absolutecreations :: Custom Rubber Stamp

If we do Philly we can do Maggiano's it is 25.99 family style and it is soooooooo good. I hear they are opening one next to Cheesecake factory in Cherry Hill. If you haven't been there you have to try it!!

Hey I love this. I wish I could purchase dollar items. hahaha I just got myself a manicure kit in the wedding blue and a free bag!!! Thanks!

Honestly you should do what you truly feel is right. I have two silly reasons why I am changing mine. 1. My last name is really hard to pronounce. 2. I am a teacher and I call houses all of the time and you would naturally assume to say the same last name of the child and just put Ms. or Mr. in front of it but that is never the case. So I want to make it easy for my children. Otherwise they get the..is that your real mom? or Are your parents married...divorced..whatever? So just to make it easy for my peeps I'm changing mine. My friend got married in June and her last name was Zvanya and she loved being a Z. So she was really upset and didn't change it right away. It takes some getting used too. Infact we have 2 nicoles in our group of friends and she was always Nicole Z or just Z and now she says are you forgetting something when I call her that.

Anyway, it was pretty funny. From what I learned on bridezilla it can take a day to degrade. So it would still need to be cleaned up by someone. But maybe it wouldn't create a problem if it got into the ocean like silk petals would. I'll just need to confirm it's not make of anything that would be toxic. edit- I see they are for a bath. Probably not a problem then. I will still need to confirm they wouldn't hurt fish, coral, etc. It's a big deal to me to not mess with any ecosystems if you can't tell. Yeah I know what you mean. That was why i grabbed the pic of the organic ones because when i think organic i think safe.

You know those little tins you can buy to put candles in or candy etc. They generally come in boxes of 30. Well Target had them on clearance today. They are 19.99 just about everywhere you go. I got them for 9.99. Not bad!! Check out their bridal stuff because they have a lot on clearance like STD's and invitation things. BTW I am so afraid of getting banned. I feel like someone will think I work for Target as much as I post about their deals and specials...hahahha

Awesome. I know i love a good find. My dress was really cheap too!

Quote: Originally Posted by Morgan You would probably still need to buy them when you get there. I think it's concern about insects tagging along that prevents you from flying in real petals. Throwing real petals isn't bad for the environment, right? Does it hurt if some real petals end up in the ocean? I wouldn't think it would, but I should find out before we do this. Yeah that is my fault I sound like an idiot. I meant like that paper stuff that disintegrates in the shape of flowers. You know like the Listerine things that go on your tongue and then are gone. Or like the things you put in the bath that are all different colors but when the water touches them they vanish.

I wanted to put manicure sets in the OOT bags, but everywhere I look they are too expensive and the dollar store has them but they look really cheap. Today while perusing Target I found sets in the dollar spot. They are either pink, blue, green or gold. Go check them out. They have a nail brush, a cuticle trimmer, a nail file, mini emery boards to go and I think one other thing I'm forgetting and they come in a resealable little bag which looks waterproof so it can double as a little wallet or something for those of us doing water activities.

Cute!! I have to think about what I want to do for my little ones.

They came out really nice. I just looked at your date you don't have too long to wait to use them. Wow time flies!

Its costing us about £4K for a week at Moon and then a week in El Dorado Royale Casistas. Hope that helps. When you planning ur big day for? EmX Oh that really stinks. I'm trying to so it April 09

I like # 2 I looked all over for jute but I have to purchase a lot of bags so I didn't want to do an expensive bag

what about biodegradable flower petals??

I want to get married there but I'm having trouble figuring out the cost. How long are your guests staying and how much is it costing them?

FMIL's suck! I can't wait to show her ours because we are doing them too. She already had shit to say about a DW then she had shit to say because I'm not wearing a veil. That will just be another fight when the invites go out. I'm not showing her ahead of time.

It's me. I chose # 6 but I don't know what book that correlates to so I'm waiting too. haha

If you wanted to make some type of box you can cut out the box shape with an Ellison Machine if you know anyone that is a teacher.

What did you decide to do?
