on your tool palette, at the bottom click on the fill color (it will usually be the black swatch) change the color to your liking. Then select the magic wand select the text you want to change and go up to the menu and select edit-fill a window will come up and make sure you select background color. I hope this helps.

Nikki - congratulations!!

We met in 2001 dated for a bit, went our separate ways in 2002 but kept running into each other. It was weird, he was in a completely different city and somehow we managed to see each other all the time in Dallas. Well, we got back together in June of 2006 and in May of 2007 told my Dad he wanted to marry and now here we are.

Kendra, I'm glad your are standing your ground and speaking your mind. The wedding is only about you and your FI and that's what's important.

Thank you for sharing these. I love looking at wedding web sites for inspiration.

It's not cheap if you don't do one. We are having them meet us for a drink the night before the rehearsal dinner and it works out since we are staying at an AI.

You can actually use either one for each events. Depending on how much information you want to put inside. You could use the boarding pass for the STD and the passport for the wedding invitation.

Thanks for sharing. I bookmark the page and I'm going to try it when I return from the wedding. I love products that make me feel good, I'm a fan of Bliss and Kiehl's.

That looks painful, I can't believe anyone would want this. This is nuts!!!

I also went through something like this at the beginning stages. My parents thought about renting a villa with everyone then coming to the wedding. I didn't like the idea and expressed my feelings to my Mom. At the end everything worked out and things started coming together. I made peace with the fact that some people weren't going to be able to make it and now think that the 24 that are coming are perfect and I'm really looking forward to it. Talk to your Mom and your grandparents I'm sure they are excited to come and they wouldn't want to miss this day.

I hate market control, not to mention all the unethical practices in the diamond business. Did you see the big lawsuit debeers lost? You can get money back on diamond purchases. I'll look for it... Yea. I did. I sent it to all my friends. Thank you!

To me it's kind of like burrying your money in the back yard incase Y2K destroys the banks. Thank you Morgan. I agree with you. Just like the price of diamond, where Debeers controls the market and the pricing.

Welcome and congratulations. We would love your feedback and pictures.

Have fun, I'm sure they are gong to turn out beautiful!

Thank you ladies for the info. But am I right? I read somewhere that the prices for gold and platinum are going up... input?

Tobi, these turned out looking great. Good job!

Absolutely! Unless it can be shipped for a little more.

What a fun time - great photos!

Thank you for sharing. I needed thank you cards also.

Seriously, the best revenge is no revenge at all. Just be happy and focus on planning your beautiful wedding! Thank you ladies! That's a great idea I'll tell him to tell her he didn't get it next time she does this. Thanks for ll of the advice you guys are awesome!

Great job, they're going to love it. Your invites came out very nicely.

I love your proposal, it's out of Hollywood movie! Congratulations!

I think dress 3 looks the best on you.
