I have a few cute dresses that are previously worn that either do not fit me anymore, I am bored of and are just too nice to donate. 1. multi colored dress, is from Guess and is a size 7 ($40 or best offer) 2. brown & pink flowered dress is also from Guess, it says it is a 3 but I would say more like a size 5 ($45 or best offer) 3. purple & black lace dress. This is a dress I wore as a bridesmaid (Alexia Designs), therefore it is wedding size 10 however I took it in a little. It has B size cups in it that are sewn in. ($90 or best offer) All dresses are in good condition and have been dry cleaned. Would prefer if the buyer paid for shipping. Thanks for looking!

First off, a huge THANK YOU to the brides who have posted their ceremonies before mine. As you will see my script literally has a piece of just about everyone's. Thanks again! Welcome Good afternoon. Today we meet in nature, surrounded by the beautiful ocean and blue sky. On behalf of the bride and groom, I extend a heartfelt welcome to the many loved ones who have travelled huge distances to bear witness to the promises that will unite Derek and Amanda's lives forever. A special and respectful acknowledgment must also be made to those friends and family members who were unable to attend, or have passed on, but whose spirit remains alive and strong in all our hearts. I have also been asked by Amanda and Derek to thank their parents for the wonderful lives that they have been given, for the hard work and guidance they have provided, for their everlasting love, support, and encouragement. It is from them that they have learned the true meaning of love, friendship and family.This is a beautiful and joyous occasion because it acknowledges their commitment in deep friendship and love. We come together not to mark the start of a relationship, but to recognize a bond that already exists. Marriage is one expression of the many varieties of love, though it's probably one of the most accomplished. "Before the two of you met, your lives were on separate roads ... each going in different directions and seemingly leading to different destinations. But somewhere along the way (through some twist of fate) you did meet, and you fell in love. Today, you find yourselves standing here together at the threshold of a new path, and have promised to forever join your once separate journeys into one. Sand Ceremony Your relationship is symbolized through the pouring of these two individual containers of sand; Each representing all that you were, all that you are, and all that you will ever be. They also represent your own sets of friends and families, that until today were apart from each other. I now ask that you blend these individual containers of sand together. Each color holds its own unique beauty, strength, and character. They can stand on their own and be whole, without the need of anything else. But when the two are blended together they represent an entirely new and extraordinary relationship. Each grain of sand brings to the mixture a lasting beauty that forever enriches the combination, and in this way may your marriage be enriched by each other. Exchanging of the Rings At this time I ask those who are holding on to the rings to please present them: The wedding ring, traditionally, is a symbol of the unbroken circle of love as it has neither a beginning nor an end. These rings mark the beginning of a long journey together, wear them proudly, as they are symbols which speak of love that you have for each other. Derek I ask that yo now look into Amanda's eyes and into her heart. Please take this ring, place it on Amanda's finger and repeat after me: I, Derek, take you, Amanda, to be my wife my partner in life and my one true love. I will cherish our friendship and love you today, tomorrow, and forever. I will trust you and respect you, I will laugh with you and cry with you. I will love you faithfully and unconditionally through the best and the worst, the difficult and the easy. Whatever may come, I promise I will always be there for you. Amanda, if you accept please say I do… Amanda I now ask that you look into Dereks eyes and into his heart. Please take this ring, place it on Derek's finger and repeat after me: I, Amanda, take you, Derek, to be my Husband my partner in life and my one true love. I will cherish our friendship and love you today, tomorrow, and forever. I will trust you and respect you, I will laugh with you and cry with you. I will love you faithfully and unconditionally through the best and the worst, the difficult and the easy. Whatever may come, I promise I will always be there for you. Derek, if you accept please say I do… Pronouncement: The moment we’ve all waited for! Amanda & Derek, Before this service you signed the legal paperwork. You received the blessing of your family and friends, And here you have made your vows and exchanged rings. Therefore on this date of March 30, 2011, in beautiful Bucerias, Mexico and in the presence of your family & friends I now pronounce you husband and wife!" Derek, you may kiss the bride Ladies and Gentlemen it is my honor and I am very happy to introduce for the first time as a married couple, Derek & Amanda Naudi!

Great choice, it will be beautiful!

Im not doing OOT bags either, as I figure most of my guests will already bring all the essentials and toliettries. I am spending some $ on the Travel Mugs with a logo & maybe the hand painted maracas!

Hey I lived in Coquitlam for years and now just about 10 minutes away, let me know if you have any questions about things to do in the area or lacations t visit, not sure if you know the area very well?

love the hair flower!

pink & black is great!!

i like the dress you have, one suggestion I would make is to make the top in to a sweetheart, it would ad more shape and make it a little more sexy. Whatever you decide it will look great!

ended up having free rooms at a casino in the states thanks to my mom and her gambling, lol. Picked up the mugs from Ship Happens and no problems accross the boarder as we were allowed to bring back lots of $. Got some of my Xmas shopping finished too!

I am pretty sure it is Jen's Wedding Day at the Royal Decameron in PV!

Weird hey, sorry that she was not that helpful for you. I dont know if the consultants realize that their attitude and personality will have a huge impact on a bride and their decision to purchase a dress.

thanks for sharing, you look so pretty and comfortable in your dress, it was made for you!

I had a good experience at Bryans Bridal in Brentwood Mall, but I think it was because my consultant was great, her name is Halle. She let me look through the entire store and put clips on the dresses I liked then brough them to the room with me and helped me try them on. My mom and cousion came with me as well. It was my first store and like 4th or 5th dress! My mom thought we were going to have to try on a million dresses and go to the states or something, she was so suprised that I found a dress the first time looking. Any brides on a budget, I would recommend shopping at Bryans. http://www.venusbridal.com/bridals/venus-informals/VN6609 this is my dress, it was $400 but with alterations (i am making the neckline more sweatheart) it will be around $550. Happy dress hunting! Amanda

My fiance is wearing a beige linen type material pant with a lime green but light in color shirt and a white blazer. The groomsmen are wearing beige shorts with white button down shirts. The girls dresses are multi colored, pink, orange, green etc therefore I am hoping it will all work together. I figured if I picked a color like green that ties in with my fiances shirt and the green in the girls dresses I could use it along with orange or pink for the guys boutineers. I think your fiance in pants will look good next to you in a long wedding dress, dont forget about that part, that is if your dress is floor lenght?

How hot are you two, love your bright colors. Congrats, pretty cool that you get engaged and married in the same place!

I orderd through discount mugs as well and sent them to ship happens http://www.myshiphappens.com/ We are supposed to get a call when they arrive and then we pick them up accross the border, not exactly sure how it will work out. I think my mom might pick them up after staying for the weekend so she should not have to pay duty. I will keep everyone posted on the outcome.

You did the right thing by reminding her that the agreement included all pictures, she may have said that she can give you 350 of the best picks of her choice to save you the trouble, therefore before you get too worried hee what her resoponse is. I do agree that if either you or her pick the best pics usually it is a lot more then 350 especially if you are doing a TTD as well. I am sure she will provide you with what you are asking for, after all you are the client and it is her job to deliever what you are looking for. I am sure it will work out for you, let us know the outcome! Amanda

The Tragically Hip is a must have!

Thanks for sharing, you looked awesome in your dress!
