Island Bride

I absolutely adore this dress! But like Pynklemonade.. im lacking in the hip/chest department.

O M G! This is the dress I want for my TTD! I just did a google search of it and you popped up! I'm not sure a size 12 could get reduced to a size 0/2 though?

OH & does this dress have any train whatsoever? The Davids Bridal page wont let me view the back of it.

Do you think I could size this down to a zero? I have this bookmarked for my trash the dress!

That wedding dress is beautiful! So I take it you decided on another one? I would love it for my TTD but it's not my size. Sorry!! Good Luck selling both -their gorgeous!

How come when I click on the link I get a picture of Gucci sneakers? haha.

Wow Echo- I'm so sorry that happened! I know nothing I say or anyone else say will make your problems disappear but just know were all here for ya!! But no matter what you do dont ever give in and let him (or the guys) convince you, you were wrong in how you reacted! Guys KNOWWWW the consequences they will face when something like this happens yet they do it anyway. Its peer pressure. When guys get together its usual not a good thing! My advice to all you ladies is to have your dads/brothers tag along for this bachelor party and everything will be gravy

Yay! I'm glad someone revived this thread! I enjoyed looking back thru each and every page. Everyone looks fabulous!!! Here is the model.. Here is me (this is the stores sample, not my actual dress and its a size 6 and im a 0 but I think it looks like it fits in pictures so you'd never know!)

You can buy one from here for $15 Starfish Bouquet Jewelry - 3 colors

Sungoddess- How awesome! That is too cool we have just about the same measurements and ended up with the same dress! I guess thats a sign Do you have your dress yet? I have mine sitting in the spare room eating me alive cuz I wanna peak at it every 10 minutes to make sure its ok! haha. Oh && I recently decided I liked the idea of heels for the reception (I'm going barefoot for the wedding and bought cute bride flip flops for the reception) but I already have my dress cut to fit my flip flops so thats out of the picture. Its nice to feel tall sometimes. FI's friends are all around 6'5" and they like to pick on me about it. I have heard more short jokes than a comedians daughter! Guess my wedding day will be no different I have learned to get used to it over the years. But ohhh.. I must share this.. for my TTD shoot.. FI is having his car in some of them so I totally wanna do this.. He has a '03 Roush Mustang that is his current wife so I'd like to get me some heels and replicate this picture with both of his wives Since shes pulling her dress up you'll never know my dress is too short with heels yay! Now off to find some hot red heels!

We used Tommy Bahama Official Site: Island Inspired Men's Clothing, Women's Clothing, Men's Shirts, Swimwear, & More. and Beach Wedding Attire: Drawstring Linen Pants, Cotton & Linen Shirts, Shorts, Skirts - Island Importer. I also see alot of the girls using Beach Wedding Attire | Guayabera, Guayabera Shirts, Havana Shirts, Mexican wedding shirts, Hawaiian I have not personally used that site but am considering ordering the dads shirts from there. They do custom shirts with embroidery on them if you'd like.

Wow, you guys sure do get around! I've never even been out of the US! I feel deprived! Good Luck with your planning. Should be interesting with the heritage of each of you.

Luckily for me my two brothers are his groomsmen so no worries there even if there was a stripper

Omg.. am I crazy? I have never heard of this show hahaha. I'm gonna have to youtube this!

Boy, I wish we could trade spots!! My FMIL bought a DARK navy dress!!! My colors are fuschia and orange and I wanted the moms to wear either or to match my party. I would even of settled with a sea blue.. but its so dark blue it almost looks black!! Oh and to top it off.. Shes a HEAVY smoker and she insists that we not keep her dress at our house free of all that! I'll just have to bring extra perfume All in all.. I would just suck it up like I gotta do. It sucks cuz its OUR day, but yeah well.. not everything always goes right. Lets just hope thats the worst thing that happens to us

Yay! These came out so nice! Inspires me to go get some engagement shots done! Even though its less than 2 months til our wedding! I donno, if thats allowed, but better late than never right?

Welcome Cassie! And congrats on your engagement!!

Destination weddings can be very overwhelming! Try getting over 100 people to cooperate! AHHH. Its rough, but we all can do it Good luck!!!

Welcome Carissa! You might wanna try the Mexico section on the main page. I'm sure you will find LOTS of useful information there! Good luck in your upcoming days of planning!!

It is a very cute idea! But he cant necessarily "walk" you down the aisle lol.. it'll be more like YOU walking HIM down the aisle haha. Do you maybe have an older brother that could walk you and your son be on the other side of you? Either choice is adorable!! So sorry to hear about your dad! I know how that must feel

OMG! I love them! Makes me miss the snow We are actually planning on going somewhere it snows for our honeymoon to snowboard and ski! If you know of any awesome place for beginners I'm willing to listen!

Ohh- and if any of you ladies liked these wine glasses enough to order them, here is the link http://www.lolitamartiniglasses.com/...e-glasses.html They also have martini glasses, shot glasses, and champagne flutes! They are reasonably priced too!

Wow! Thank you so much ladies! I really think the jewelry boxes would be better and its something they can have forever and every time they look at them they'll remember my wedding, but I just cant resist cuz those wine glasses are so adorable! We planned on getting the guys beer mugs with their names in them so I thought the wine glasses would match but all in all, I think im going to order the jewelry boxes! Since one of my bridesmaids is doing my makeup (for free) I was thinking of maybe just getting her one of them (or maybe all 3!) I think she would really love it. And also, with the traveling.. I'm driving so no planes for me (I'm getting married in South Florida and I live in Central Florida) but 2 of the bridesmaids would be traveling by plane home and I would be scared they would get broke. They would probably just toss the wine glasses under their beds and never use them, but god are they ever cute! I really appreciate all your opinions! You've helped me come to what I think is my final opinion -JEWELRY BOXES

I'm totally stuck on these two gifts! I want to either get them a little jewelry box so that can have it forever to remember my wedding or a custom wine glass by Lolita! Help! I need opinions! I was thinking of the jewelry box because I have bought all their jewelry for the wedding so I was gonna give the jewelry to them in the jewelry box. I want the wine glass cuz thats just so unique!! Heres the wine glasses.. And I havent picked a certain jewelry box yet, but basically its a little jewlery box with their name etched in it. Any suggestions will help! Thanks so much!

haha lucky you, you Delaware-ian! Glad I'm not the only one using your first option!
