I got everyone's sizes. I just sent out an email and said that I was working on a wedding project and "no questions allowed". haha

It's a prototype but is probably a better look than what I will be able to take with my camera. These are our wedding favors and will be everyone's "dancing shoes". I ordered them from Party Flops and they are shipping directly to the resort. I'm so excited I just wanted to share with you all.

The lovely Yolanda ladies..... She has requested to only have this image up until Wednesday. Mods I will PM someone and remind them to delete it. Thanks!

Casey is quite modelesque. I love those shots so far. Amazing! I have one teaser and I love it. Here it is ladies...

I sent out a mass email asking them for their shoe size and said I was working on a "wedding project". I also said.. p.s no questions asked. everyone responded with something like.. "here's my shoe size- I'm not giving you my pant size..." ha ha

oh my gosh. I am feeling nervous about this darn swank bullshi*

Mishi! I love this song. I think that's a great idea!!! i love love love it. I haven't heard it in so long. Thank you so much for reminding me of this one. So right now I think this is "the one". I feel like I found my dress! Fanny- you are so adoreable. musical theatre does = love. ha ha Kristy- that is bizarre about our tickers. btw I love your "workout ticker". I am crazy and would think like there's only 50 more workouts till I am in a bathign suit. That would freak me out but maybe by looking at yours I will stay on track! *I will definately have someone video it. I got ten bucks down right now that says I can't sing any song to him without crying. tee hee.

Omg Yolanda I can't believe he came home early!! FI was all - did you get a lot of work done at the library today? hee hee. I left early to go to class but I will just say that both Casey and Yolanda looked beyond fabulous and I know those pics are going to be hot. I will echo what was said by yolanda about looking at some of the images that she took and it was like... "that's me??" (in a good way) Like camoflauging (sp?) all the right parts. I got home after classes and my hair was still all bombshelled out and FI was like "oh my gosh you hair looks amazing. What did you do?" In another snowball of lies I told him that after the library before class I had a wedding hair trial. He was sort of going crazy for it which I thought was funny. Who knew some rollers, teasing, and hairspray would have that effect on him?? I need to get me a curling iron. stat!

Hi Everyone, Yesterday I had a group boudoir session with 2 other bdw brides (Casey and Justustwo) and Kamilla Harris here in NYC and I just wanted to say that it was a FANTASTIC experience for me. This was my 2nd attempt because I was not at all happy with my first experience which was NOT with Kamilla. Both her and her makeup artist were so professional and fun and made me feel super comfortable in my skiivy's. She showed me some photos as she was working and she has a great artistic eye and knows how to take a flattering shot. I can't wait to see them. I just wanted to pass that on in case anyone is still searching for a photographer. They are a great team!

Amanda that was happening to me to for a bit. But we are here now on page 2... i guess a glitch. I am at work but will listen to that song at home. Darn not being able to go on youtube at work. Soccurgurl- I also need to listen to some BM songs but I think theymight be hard to arrange as far as making it work for my voice. I am planning on only meeting with my old voice coach 1x so we can tape the accompaniment sort of thing. BUt i'm still gonna hava listen! Thanks ladies... i'm still open for more..

How exciting Ayita! Always nice to find a smaller size when you are trying to drop a few...

(thank you, mom, for the worrying gene you passed along to me!) the other biggie is that i bought a bunch of OOT stuff a LONG time ago, and apparently underestimated how much i would need, since suddenly EVERYONE is coming. i can fix not having enough actual bags by buying different, better ones for the bridal party. but all the other stuff requires a bunch of running around ... ugh! I am in the same boat as you with my dress. They told me mid to late marcha and um.. hello? I called and the woman was like oh yeah it should be in any day now. I was remaining calm but I ordered it and put deposit down on it in the shop on August 14th. WTF?? So i am going to call again tomorrow and express my concern. I am also freakign out that it will need many alterations. I just keep telling me that they deal with this all the time...

Yeah patsy songs are broken heart. I'm still brainstorming... so if anyone out there has ideas I would love em. Yael- good tip on looking at 1st dance songs. Thanks! I listened to Amazed cause I didnt know it. I can see that being a nice song with a woman singing it too but I don't think it's right for us. Thanks girls.

Betsey I actually really love that song. I hadn't heard it in ages.. hmm Danielle I am so blank. Honestly he goes crazy when I sing anything but usually what I sing around the house is musical theatre stuff or random songs that I am making fun of. Yeah we don't have a song.. like an "our song" kind of song. I looked up on google greatest love songs and some of them are really funny. It's really dated list but possibly a patsy cline song. I'm trying to stay away from the you broke my heart ones. haha

Hi everyone, I used to be a singer and I don't do it anymore. I do it for fun around the house and FI loves to hear me sing. Anyway, I am planning on surprising him with a song during our reception. I am drawing a blank on what to sing. I would love to hear any and all suggestions. Songs that I have already sung at other people's weddings that I don't want to sing: At last- etta james Come away with me- norah jones They can't take that away from me- Ella fitzgerald A bunch of Celine Dion stuff Thanks guys!

Meredith! Wow have a wonderful time. That really snuck right up fast it seems...

I love the shoes Kristy!

today is exactly 2 months till our wedding. yipee! I am sitting in the library avoiding doing actual work and I cannot wait to be on the beach marrying my honey in 2 months. I am so over school. I cannot focus at all. - as far as getting best price quotes- I have no idea. We put a deposit down last June when we went for a site visit and I think it was 2008 prices- but they have changed so whatever we didn't want to pay for we basically found off site vendors. It is annoying because it comes with a fee but it still ended up saving me a few bucks. I don't have it in me to go back and forth with Perla on pricing. I am trying to keep it simple- which is very hard. I believe missy negotiated on some pricing so I think it must be possible to some extent.

Congrats Erin! You are such a sweetie you deserve it.

I am sending you a { hug }. I hope that everything works out the way it should. I'm sorry you are going through this.

So far I have had my dose raised once and have another appointment to get the blood checked next week. My doc is monitoring it and starting me low. I have had a slight noticable difference in how exhausted and am a bit more regular. I am also taking a bunch of suppplements for adrenal support and a few other issues I was having.

I am getting excited for round 2! Kristy- i agree the qulaity after any airbrushing was not hot. How great that your book is done though! I know your man will love it.

wow Ayita.. You are getting so close! congrats on getting so much done!

yay good for you! It sounds like you are on the right track girl!

I love reading these. I am finishing graduate school in less than 2 months(!) as a drama therapist. What is drama therapy? It's psychotherapy using drama as a tool to help people work out their issues and develop self awareness etc. Many times it begins with talk therapy and then moves into storytelling,role-playing, embodiment, writing poetry etc. Currently I am doing therapy with chronic mentally ill adults in an intensive psychiatric rehabilitation treatment unit. I love my job it's incredibly rewarding and definately wild at times. Once I graduate I will be focusing on dual disgnosis/substance abuse populations.
