Brandy

I honestly dont know how anyone could ask this question, I would NEVER ask someone a question like that! Luckily I have not had anyone ask this question, but if they did I guess I would just say that we are only inviting close/immediate family and friends (and the friends we have invited we have know for a very very long time) so its mostly family in our case, we sent out about 40 invites which equals out to about 90 people, and we probably "know" at least 250-300 which is what will probably be invited to the AHR, you could also mention that if you are having one.

Thanks for the tip Teira, I feel some much better after talking to you ladies I think Im def going to go ahead and just order it a size smaller, and lets pray I actually loose the weight lol.

Oh wow, congrats to you!!!! I would love to know how it all works out for you I feel like we are in the same boat, I started at 172 and Im down to 155, and my goal weight is around 130 or so.

They look great Lana! I really loooove the magnet so cute!

Yeah thats what Im thinking at this point, to just order 1 size smaller and hope it can be altered enough when its all said and done.

This is why I have been so freaked out to go dress shopping, Im really worried about the alterations part of it all, Ive lost 16 lbs so far and really really really hope to lose another 20-25 or so before the wedding which I know I can do Im just worried about the dress fitting and be able to get it altered properly. And Im pretty sure if I do lost that amount of weight it will more than likely be more than 2 sizes.

Great pictures, you look like you had so much fun and your little girl is too cute!!

Thanks for the info CSandCk2, I will definitely have to ask the bridal shop what their policy is.

So what would happen if you ordered your dress, it came in and you lost 3 dress sizes and they tell you they can only alter it to 2 sizes, do they order you another dress at no cost and get it rushed or something? I really have no clue how all of this works!

Has anyone every ordered a dress smaller in hopes to loose alot of weight and also still alter the dress

Phew! I was really thinking Im the only one left without a dress!!! This makes me feel better, question...exactly how much can they alter a dress I think I heard somewhere before they can only alter it about 2 sizes, is this true?

Thank you!!!! I cant wait to send them out. I received my custom zazzle stamps the other day and put them on the RSVP's

Im a bit of a procrastinator!!! And Ive been trying to loose some weight before I tried any dresses on, but its crunch time now so I have to go soon, Ill probably be going next weekend.

Oh I know, it seems to be going slooooow! I wish it was closer, but I also wish I had my dress already!!!!!

Thats so great, congratulations on finding the perfect dress!

Your welcome! And I love the bow, I think it makes the dress, it gives it character you could even add a cute little starfish brooch on it or something. OH I had no idea there was an aflred angelo in glen burnie, may have to add that to the list! Thanks.

6 Months to Go! Woot Woot!!

Love it MrsGreene! It looks fantastic on you, which bridal shop did you go to?

Love this idea!

Love your dress jewels!!

Hey Tina! Yes there are 3 tickets, the first one is the invite, the second is resort info, how to book and our website info, the third ticket is the RSVP, the kind that tears off and goes in the mail "postcard" style. Oh I know what you mean it gets pretty expensive and fast Rebecca has done my monogram, Passports STD's, oot bag tags, boarding pass invitations, Bridesmaids cards, and shes working on my welcome books so you can only imagine how much Ive already spent, and I still have more stuff I want her to do for me! The passports invitations are a great option too, I loved my save-the-dates and they were just the simple one with no pages, so Im sure the invite with the six page insert is amazing!!!

I was just curious, when is everyone mailing out their invitations?

I saw these on Etsy yesterday!! They are gorgeous and I love the bright colors, your guests are going to love them!!

Thanks! Yeah I know, I get more concerned about showing other peoples address, guess I just have to hope nobody will actually use my address for any reason.
