I totally agree! The both of you look great!

Hey girly, Totally have a wonderful time! I will be DIYing as my deadline of Dec 1 is approaching ;-) So much to do with the hoildays coming up so I have to get DIY done.. well for the wedding anyway ;-)

Selina, As many of the ladies here have already said, yet I MUST repeat the very same words "You my dear looked absolutely Gorgeous, Stunning & FAB." Perfect in every way! Congrats!!

Very Nice! Love the personalization. May I ask where you purchased your travel mugs from?

It would be great if you would upload pictures of you in them and/or on the model so we can all chime in. But, you have to try the other dress on... you will be surprised a fluff here, or flower there, crinkle etc.. can make a difference. Then from there I'm more than sure you will be able to pick "the one"

I'm on pinterest and totally don't know WTH I'm supposed to be doing LOL so I'll follow you or you can follow me at chanel conley or coconoir1908

I just started and trying to get the hang of it... I'm Chanel Conley or coconoir1908...

Wow, these are great! Love love love it!

I'm glad that your Bridal Shower went well! Everything that you have done is super AMAZING! Can't wait to see what you do next.

MP Brides, Is anyone interested in going in for these cups as the minimum order is 250. So far 150 is spoken for! We will keep the logo as general and generic as possible so that it can be used by anyone. We can include or exclude the year... PM me if interested more information can be found at www.vendodirect.com/prstcu.html

Hi Selina and welcome back! Your profile picture is GORG so say the least! You go FAB one. I can't wait to read more. Glad you are back safe and sound.. XOXO

I like this idea!!

I love the first bouquet better but not a big fan of the flowers that are sticking out, I guess there the Lillie's. But how do you imagine the flowers looking with your dress? That's what matters most!

I'm doing a birdcage veil. I may purchase a shoulder length veil just for photo ops but not really sure

I'm so so so excited but at the same time have a knot in my throat. Now I'm thinking who the hell do I trust enough to keep it for me. FI is tooooooooo noisy for me to keep it at our house. My sash maybe in within the next two weeks so I just may make the appointment for that time. So much for loosing 5 more pounds before the dress..

Sounds good.. I think we can definitely do that.. we are up to 100 thus far, how many would you need?

I just got a call and my dress is in! The belt isn't but the dress is.... so exciting ;-)

Love the pics, GORG.... especially the shoes ;-)

Thanks so much! It truly feels like a months worth of stuff. These projects are sucking up my weekends & I'm so ready to Party:-) but the sacrifice now will go along way on our wedding day.

We are not having an AHR because of the very same reason we are having a DW wedding. We know and are actively involved with tons of people, also FI's family is SUPER large. Even narrowing down those that we are "close" with, seemed to be a major pain and then adding the cost of 200+ people and weighing that against gifts etc.. it just simply wasn't worth it. We too have people saying "what are you going to do when you get home" our answer "Furnish the rest of our house." We sent out 150 STDs and Invites with a turnout of 50 people to date. For those people we will go all out in Mexico as they have truly sacrificed, planned etc to come and join us. For those that otherwise couldn't make it including the "I'm coming to y'all wedding" or the "I'm so excited I can't wait to come" but they surely didn't book.. why waste our time or money. We recognize those that couldn't make it for whatever reason and those persons simply said "I would love to come but I simply can't." We respect those persons solely because they were honest! But again, to have an AHR would truly go back to the tug and pull of "who are we inviting" and for us we said "if we give an AHR why have a DW in the first place" (That's our rationale.) To sum it up, we will send out a special thank you gift for those that attended the wedding and for those that otherwise couldn't make it 'we will send a thank you card (I have yet to figure out the wording) but this will card will have a link to our website so that they can view our wedding photos and share in our day that way.

My April 2012 Brides, Is anyone interested in doing a cup like this? We can do one with a logo that everyone agrees on but appropriate for the occasion? These are studio cups that change to various colors like frosted (pictured below) to orange or pink, blue, purple and/or assorted colors. They are running 250 for $197 with a $40 logo set-up fee. I need 50 myself but need other interested brides (regardless of where you live). Let me know if you are interested and how many you may need. More information can be found here http://www.vendodirect.com/prstcu.html

Thanks.... FI and I were cracking up, so much so that we both were crying.

Thanks so much for the compliment but I can't even begin to take credit as this site, helped the "buyer in me" DIY. I'm so the "let me find the best person for the job" type of girl but this site has truly been my inspiration. I'm simply paying it forward the best way that I know how. I can't say enough about Michaels..... but I LOVE me some Michaels. We have that gold membership, coupon on iPhone, along with the computers on the website thing down to a science. Many times I tell the check-out person that they will see my in one second as I have another coupon to use.. I simply check out with one order, then turn around and get the other order LOL One word of advice...use your 50% off coupon for the costly items and buy it alone that way your 50% off is not on a $3.99 purchase. For me this was key! Then I would use my 40% off on other items that weren't so costly.

Ladydi, Such a great & creative idea!!!! Your guest will have so much fun with this. I love the pages that you did of you & FI cuuuute

Love Nordstrom's and Nieman's
