Yes the BP's are the STD's. I wanted formal invites but I loved the BP idea they made perfect STD's. The invites are from oliosyle. They are great and totally work with you.

I finally finished my STD's and sent them 2 months ago. I decided that I would post them as well as my Invite Sample that I just received and see what everyone thinks. Sorry the Invite Sample is kinda blurry. STD Invite Sample

I went and had my make-up trial on Valentine's Day. I love the way that it turned out. Thought I would share and see what everyone else thought, good or bad.

Yari- I like your invites I think that the spacing makes them different and unique. I wanted those same invites but my family said no due to cost. I also like the Mock-up by Sarah as well though. I think that you should do what makes you happy it is your day.

I have been growing my hair since Ted and I met. I will be cutting it off the day we get back from our honeymoon. I hate it right now I just want it gone, but I know that I want it longer for the wedding so I have to wait.

Thank you everyone for the information. I am going to try everything, I am sure it will just take time to get used to.

I just found out that my stomach aches that I have had since I was in High School is most likely because I am Lactose Intolerant. So Now I am freaking out because it is a total life change. Is anyone else Lactose and Intolerant and have suggestions? I have also heard that Soy Milk is more fattening that regular milk? Is this true?

My FI is also in the same place and what he has done is cut down on soda intake and on coffee. (Which he drinks WAY to much of).

I also get really red in the face when working out. My chest also gets really red when working out, nervous, or have been drinking. I always wondered if I was the only one because people have already made fun of me for it. I have sensitive skin so thats what I always thought it was.

Has anyone ordered there invites from Olio Style? I really like the invities but am scared to order them over the internet. olio style - modern wedding invitations, unique custom stationery, stylish baby announcements

I love the pictures they are amazing.

Here is my E-Ring, I love it!

Does anyone know if there is supposed to be a specific order that the wedding party is supposed to be in, other than the maid of honor and the best man? How did you all choose the order of the party?

So, I currently have 6 bridesmaids and 5 groomsman in the wedding party. I would like to ask another friend to be in the wedding. 1 of my bridesmaids is actually a Jr. Bridesmaid (shes only 14). Do you think that it is bad to ask her because the numbers will be off by 1-2ish and do you think that it is bad because its 6 months till the wedding and others have already known for months? I guess I also feel bad because I got a lil tipsy and said something to the effect of I wish that you would be in my wedding, and she said that if you need someone else let me know. Why did I drink so much at the engagement party...ha ha ha.

I love the invites they look amazing. Good Job.

I love these. The picture is great I love the idea of the date in the sand. Very cute idea.

Everything looks great. Have a great time! Can't wait to see pictures.

Thank you for all the info. We are both very excitied. We are probably going to rent a car and go to the Dole plantation. We had also thought about going to the Pearl Harbor Memorial. I also decided that we are going to do our TTD there....Hoepfully the week goes by slow, even though I dont think it will.

We just found out that we got a condo for the week after our wedding on Oahu a block away from the beach. I have never been to Waikiki but am very excited....if anyone has been there can you tell me what there is do to there? I have searched online but it is so hard to really know what to do.

Why does this always happen....I just bought my wedding shoes which I love. I searched everywhere for sandals with Starfish on them I finally found some with Stewart Weitzman. So I was just searching for bridesmaids sandals on piperlime.com and found these thought I would post with them even though they are really expensive just for a pair of sandals.... Tried to make the picture smaller, I dont think it worked though...sorry.

When my FI and I started dating I found out that he does not like watches(which was a huge disappointment because its a great gift idea) but he told me that all he ever wanted was a pocket watch. At that point I knew what I was going to get him when we were to get married. I am going to get a pocket watch and in the inside put a mesg. in there for him and the date of our wedding on the outside. I am very excited. As for me, I have no idea what he is going to do for me, most likely jewelry.

They are so cute. I wish that I was that creative to be able to do something like that. They are also perfect for a DW. I was told when planning my wedding that it was my wedding not anyone elses and I need to do what I want, not what others think I should do.
