My question is if they new SJP was goign to wear them in 1.5 years, why not wait to release them or make more....duh! This is why they are so hard to find unfortunately. I don't think these ones are the same ones that are in the movie? Those ones were cobalt blue and pointy toe, weren't they?

I know how you feel because I just went through this same thing a couple of weeks ago (my first dress shopping excursion). The only thing I can stress is to be open to trying on a lot of different styles...I've narrowed it down to the shape that looks best on me, but it's never what I thought I would have wanted! So definitely keep an open mind. Everyone else gave great advice. I'm going to do 2 stores per day but spread the days out over a few weeks at a time...otherwise I think it can get overwhelming (plus I have the luxury of having a lot of time to shop around). It'll probably take me 6 months to find the dress and actually purchase it!

Welcome! You will find lots of great info on here!

Me too - I actually *had* to see it 3 times! I saw it on the Sunday of the opening weekend because I couldn't wait...then I saw it as part of my friends bachelorette party, and then I had to go with Matie because he was dying to see it too! It's just as good each time

Leopard Manolos I think I got it!

Wow! Those are really cool!

I love those! My parents just bought some last weekend, but I never though of using them as a favour! Great idea!

OMG Amy, that's an amazing video! I agree...Andy's face was priceless. And I love how it did that "snapshot" at the end of the wedding picture part and before the reception part...amazing!

I hope he stops, so you all can be happy! We just took our dog (a puggle) to a trainer on Tuesday about his anxiety and eating stuff while we're gone. He actually had some really interesting and smart things to say. Our dog has been fully trained as a puppy - he can sit, stay, come, even spin. But what the new trainer told us is that basically he's just doing tricks, and isn't obedient at all. He said that once your dog is truly obedient and doesn't just do stuff for treats, he will never EVER touch your stuff. So we're in the process of working on that now...our first lesson was concentrated on getting him to walk with us properly and only stop when we tell him to, and not pull, etc...doing this all with NO treats! So far so good, but we still have so much farther to go, and it's a lot of work. But I know it's 100% necessary and will be worth it! I would recommend using a trainer for sure...but I'll update you once we have some more lessons under our belt

Congrats! That's great news!

WOW - those pictures are amazing! You must be soooo happy. I can't wait to see more! I'm going to contact him for a quote...I love the style of photos he does, that's totally what we're looking for too!

These are great gifts Alyssa - your wedding party is really lucky! I'm definitely going to consider the robes...such a great gift. I was going to suggest different coloured Havianas flip flops but I think the toiletry case is even better!

Wow, that looks gorgeous!

Have so much fun! Can't wait to hear about your experience when it's done...

Congratulations!

I just sent out my save the date emails yesterday, and my wedding is 15 months away. I figure the more notice you can give, the better! I've even had a few guests book already.

This is such a good thread! One thing we do at home is turn the air conditioning down (i.e. warmer) while we go to work during the day, and if we go away for the weekend, we turn it off completely and leave our windows open. We recycle like crazy and only have one car - I walk or ride my bike to work. We also do all of our laundry in cold water.

Welcome fellow Canadian! You are going to love this site!

Yay I just joined the BDW Group on FB! I had no clue it even existed...

Each time he eats something, we make sure it's hidden away somewhere from now on, but then the next time he feels like eating something, he finds something new....so frustrating! Our place is tiny and we're running out of room to put things away!

We just met with a new dog trainer last night, and I seriously think he's going to work wonders with our little guy. His main problem is separation anxiety (i.e. he randomly sometimes eats all of our stuff while were gone), but also he just isn't really that obedient. After one session I can already see a difference...although I think it's going to take a lot of work. If this doesn't do the trick, maybe I'll contact Dawn, because I always say that I wish our guy could speak english for even FIVE minutes, so I could tell him to stop freaking out and that we're always going to come home to get him! Has anybody else tried her since the last posts?
