BDW Buy/Sell forum: Use at your own risk!
roo66 replied to TammyWright's topic in Buy / Sell / Trade Archives
Girls its a shame there are greedy people around.Just because we are planning our own weddings dosent mean that fellow members are not working along the lines its a wedding and adding a few more pounds/dollors to what they are selling. Its a shame that the money signs blinker peoples judgements. That said i have bought my veil and am awaiting raffia fans both have been trouble free.The seller of the fans even created our paypal account because she over estimated the cost of postage. Its a shame that there are people on here not being completly honest My advise go into a deal with your eyes wide open.Not wearing rose tinted glasses. I really do believe in Karma.Nothing more to say only Thanks to Tammy and the mods for bumping a very important issue. -
I think these are really pretty be sure to post once complete.Im not sure where you want to place the bow so i cant really comment on that BUT i love originality and i havnt seen anything like it.Im sure they will turn out great.Dont forget to update the finished goods xx

Girls throughout most of these posts money rears its ugly head.I would not try to buy her friendship at all.It seems that you have tried very hard to get her on board,and now is the time to back off. As a mum of three myself i try very hard to treat them the same,I know im not always great at it.I know my mum and dad have helped me much more than my brother and we lost my sister at 13 ive been married twice before so theyve had all the worry from that as well. Be happy that she is pregnant miscarriage is devastating and wanting to become pregnant is like switching a light on its a wierd feeling that you will only understand when it happens to you.Its not always at a time that fits in with your own life plan let alone anyone elses. Be sure to offer her your friendship as a SIL not as your best buddy dont arrange baby showers you dont want to hold it against her later on down the line. She is very early on in her pregnancy,continue to include her, If she comes choose a dress that she can grow into I really wouldnt ask her if shes going to still be a bridesmaid let her bring it up and then say look if you dont want to be stood up in all the heat you wont be offended. Im just thinking a really sweet cheap idea is to get her a parasol with M2B on it. Sit her to the side you wont have everyone asking f shes too hot cos youve been really sweet and surprized her with an individual gift that has showed you at your thoughtful best. Sometimes we have to kill with kindness BUT it dosent have to cost a fortune to be effective. Do you have any thing planned to include your dear mum for sure she is watching you and on your wedding day she will be smiling with pride at the beautiful person she helped create.Enjoy your wedding planning xxx Take care xxxx Maria xxx

The Tiffany three star necklaces ARE on the Tiffany site they are over $600 each!! I dont want to cause trouble either. No one in there right mind would sell genuine goods at such a greatly reduced price. I opologize in advance if i have done you an injustice But i do think if an offer seems to good to be true then it probably is. Again if you are happy to purchase sterling siver jewelry check out ebay where they are being sold for $4 with free shipping.

I think that when he asked he thought i would say no anyway so for a while when i asked all the questions he saw it as a amber light and there was a strong possibility i would say yes.Little did he know was i never really thought it would be a yes but didnt want him to say i wasnt prepared to listen.Because he hasnt mentioned it since the NO on thursday evening i am now wondering if he too was a little worried.Although very confieident he does worry about being out of his comfort zone.We once went to a place in London called Camden he hated it, was frightened its an area in London where pepole are dressed very differently than in leafy Kent.ie piercings everywhere punks hippys all very individual arty peaceful people but he actually said mum i dont like it here can we go,I think he is relieved. He has said though were doing a stag do in Zante and luckily Paul has said NO lol

Well ladies he isnt going.He got up late yesterday and was very quiet.Very unlike Josh whos loud all of the time.He wants to be a holiday rep himself the perfect job for him lol.I told him i spoke with my mum and she said he was very selfish with our wedding only two weeks later he would not only ruin our wedding but everyones holiday aswell. He said thats rubbish left the room and went and played the playstation. I showered and went into him said i was off to TK Maxx and did he want to come or was he going to sulk all day? The reply was "im not ready"i told him thats not what i asked was he coming or was he gunna continue to sulk.He deceided to come and wa very quiet. BLISS lol To be fair he didnt question my decision at all I await the next instalment when someone cancels but am confiedent he wont budget for the just in case. Im very relieved he didnt just use the im 18 card and go book it PHEW

roo66 replied to Island Bride's topic in Buy / Sell / Trade Archives
Oh i wish i could order from here.Ive paid over £3.00 for just one starfish to tie our wedding bands to.I wanted to do 20 more as place cards.You girls are so lucky xx What do you have planned for them? -
I wouldnt ask him to do anything at all.They will not preform id just leave a new bucket and spade and some moulds to one side.Dont tell him there going to be there and hell just go for it. OH ive just had a thought play on his three year old mind dress him as a smart pirate minus the patch and make a treasure chest with pieces of eight in it !!! half bury it in the sand.Someone on here made a treasure chest who was it girls? Again dont tell him its there let him discover it Oh what could you put in it? I think it will be fab beach wedding a pirate no sword though Hell be so happy what do you think I know someone who had her bridesmaids dressed as fairies and her pageboys as pirates and they got marries in church

Josh came home tonight and asked if he could go on holday to Malia which is part of Greece on a lads holiday.Twenty of them on an 18-30 in July for two weeks.I said NO. At the moment he has his hand in plaster after breaking it in three places.For those in the know thats unusual.Two weeks before that we were in Accident and emergency thinking hed broken his foot.In october he had septo rinoplasty on his nose.The first two injuries were football related the later from falling from a tree when he was ten. I feel mean for saying no.Malia is a young persons resort and i know the holiday would be all about sun sea and sex.He was 18 only three weeks ago!!! Some of his friends went last year without any problems. BUT what if something goes wrong? Our wedding is on the 4th September we fly out on the 31st of August.He would be back around the 13th. He went to bed with the hump tonight and ive come downstairs unable to sleep partly cos of my bloody tooth its killing me and then because Malia keeps going through my head. Paul undestands my concerns Josh is just an accident waiting to happen if something went wrong i would want/have to fly out and with the wedding just a fourtnight later we would really really struggle financially. Paul said what if there was trouble and he was arrested and then fell asleep!!! That was it my mind was made up BUT in the morning i just know he will want me to explain why he cant go.BUT what If i said yes and something bad happened I just feel i should go with my gut instinct what do you all think?

Congratulations on making it into print.I love the sand dollors in the bouquet and the seashell messages.How did you make that work?

Post your Hair and makeup ideas
roo66 replied to EDYTA's topic in Destination Wedding Dresses, Wedding Attire & rings
Oh how i wish my hair would grow.Its fine but thick thats what the hairdresser says anyway.I want to be able to curl it and put it up.The thing is there wont be much UP.Its only a tiny bit longer than it is in my siggy picture that was taken late november.This time last year the left side was about an inch with the right side at my ear lobe,Asymetrical? i think its called.Im not getting it cut now just coloured in the hope that it suddenly decides to before September.I tried a Jessica Simpson hair piece and it looked silly as it was thnner than my own hair. THANKS for posting all the fab photos and if anyone has any ideas for chin length hair im all ears x -

Not going all out with decor
roo66 replied to Megan24's topic in Wedding Flowers, decoration, cake, etc.
Im bringing 6 tea light holders in fushia pink 1 starfish for our rings to be tied too.3 scented candles 3 bunches of real touch orchids 10 raffia fans 10 pashminas and the petal cones and jelly bean cones.Thats it. I wanted to do starfish placecards but thought no this is enough!!!!! I am fighting with myself about a parasol ,umm maybe, but really i said from the very start i didnt want all the bows and whistles.Ive just remembered i bought three fishbowls with LCD lights AND ive ordered the bridesmaids flowers,Pauls buttonhole and the mums wrist corsarges.NOW really that is enough !!!!! NO MORE. Just a word of advise dont look at the sandals packages they will set you off again !!!!!!!!! -
My MOH and groomsmen are heading for divorce...
roo66 replied to sjmacphe's topic in Just venting or funnies
My first husband left me with three kids under 5 the youngest was 6 months old. He first cheated after 6 months of marriage.My boys will never forgive him for what he did and neither will i.Your friend is clinging to what she knows, fear makes you want what you cant have or even want.It may take her a long time to pick herself off the floor. I hope she decides to come to your wedding if the babies were coming to i hope she can bring them.Maybe he would miss them ( you never know) could one of her family take her husbands place? Did they pay for the trip already because if they have she may as well go. What i would beware of though is if he decides to go would he invite the ex to stand in for his wife and your friend. He sounds a rat so just giving you a heads up so he dosent catch you and you H2B off guard. Im sending your friend positive vibes and hope it all works out xxx -
My mum has bought a long black dress which has a black ang gold chunky buckle thing at the boob.I wanted her to pick something more tropical but im not wearing it.I bought her some gold coloured bangles to go with it and im going to find pink and turquoise to add. She has some gold flipflops BUT im going to look for pink/gold/turquoise LOL Pauls mum has a turquoise, brown with white dress.Its long but my issue with her is her footwear canvas shoes "i dont think so" Pauls dad has the same baby blue linen trousers as Paul and my boys have. He just needs a shirt white linen i guess. I do think my mum will continue to look for another dress

Im back from the dentist,and hes prescribed metronidazole and ibuprofen.He thinks it will take a couple of weeks to settle.I asked if there was a chance he hadnt removed all the root and he showed me the xray and the front tooth only has one nerve.He thinks it may be very bruised hence the pain.He didnt look at the tooth but that said im in more pain than i was even first thing this morning.Ijust hope the meds kick in.Ive alreadyrung work to say im not going in to work tomorrow. If it dosent settle i can have someone else do it again or get it taken out. We dont have £2,000 for an implant and i really dont want to have a false tooth on a plate its my bottom front one !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Antibiotics PLEASE work

Anyone use beach mats instead of chairs?
roo66 replied to RedHeadBride's topic in Wedding Flowers, decoration, cake, etc.
How about doing mats with cushions running into a semi circle or circle.However you do need to think of the less able guests. What about lounge furniture like poofees not sure on the spelling. It could work out expensive though
