Thank you!

Sorry I went MIA for all the questions about the hot yoga, my 1 year old would try to type over me when I was replying I started hot yoga about 4 weeks ago. So, I lost about 3lbs a week. Total is 12 lbs so far! I was in a pretty rough car accident last Tuesday, so my yoga has been interupted, however, I will be back at it soon! I love it because it is very relaxing, it calms my nerves a bit (and the stress from wedding planning!), and works my inner mind and body-plus YOU SEE RESULTS! My fiance says I look 8 lbs smaller everytime I come home lol! Keep in mind, I probably can only lose another 10 lbs total-I just don't see being much smaller than that, but I more than anything just want to drop some fat and tone, and this has been the best way thus far. Plus, I have a spin bike at home and I sometimes heat my yoga room a little and ride my spin bike-that way I always feel like I'm getting a workout because I'm so sweaty! I also have 2 kids, so it's hard to eat healthy all the time, so I go by proportions-if it's mac n cheese, I only have a little bit, and drink lots of water! Good Luck girls! You CAN DO IT!

Thank you! I can't wait to see it either! There are so many beautiful dresses, it seems like I like something from each one! That's why I put together my dress with all the things I liked from each dress

Great thread! I've been trying to figure out how to do the mustache on a stick forever! On my way to the dollar store and michaels now! Thanks!

So I ordered my dress from a seller on etsy (Your Fairytale Wedding) and told her all the details I wanted. I won't get my dress until August, but here is the sketch-I am SO HAPPY with my choice, it's exactly what I wanted and dreamed of!

Wow, I thought this would be much bigger thread! I have 2 kiddos, a 6 year old and a 22 month old, both boys, Ty and Cooper. My other true loves My older boy and FI are at a baseball game and my baby is sleeping, so finally, I have time to browse!

I think it is totally inconsiderate of other people to invite their own guests to your wedding! I am dealing with the same thing-my BM invited 2 of her friends to my wedding. GRRR! It's not spring break, it's my WEDDING! I'm so angry and frustrated, so I understand where you're coming from! My plan is to be up front about the way it makes me feel-that this is a very special occasion, and we already invited all the people we wanted to be there, no additions. We'll see if that is clear enough! Good Luck!

I haven't read all the posts on this thread yet, but I thought I would mention that I have already lost 12 pounds doing Hot Yoga (Bikram), and I am addicted. It is really helping me tone, burn fat, and it helps me with my anxiety also! Core Power yoga is where I go, and I my wonderful and handy FI is building me a yoga studio at our house! Yay! I use yogadownload.com for videos, and I have never felt better!

I'm so sorry to hear many other brides are having the same struggles I am My so called "friends" have completely betrayed me since I got engaged, and my best friend turned into a jealous psycho after I got engaged, scoffing at every dress, color, or idea I looked at, yet she was so eager to leak the news of my FI proposal to me before he did it! I have since lost all but a select few of my girlfriends due to all this drama, and things just keep getting worse. I chose not to have a MOH at all. My brother can't come, and my Father hasn't been around since I was little, and My Mother has even asked how I would feel if she didn't come??! "Hmmm, let me see, I don't know Mom, DEVESTATED is the word that comes to mind!" Turns out, our wedding has brought the real opinions people have of me and my FI and our kids. Ouch. However, my FMIL and I had lunch today, and she said something that stuck with me. Maybe it'll help you as much as it has helped me-she said "Nobody is going to be happy about your wedding but you" and she's right, I am not sure what I expected from my BM, or my Mother, but really, I will only be disappointed if I expect anyone to be as happy about OUR wedding as we are, it's ours, not theirs, and the people who should be happy is me and my FI and our kids, and that is who I am going to focus on, that's it! Weddings really bring out the best or worst of people.

This is great! I hope I too can even get to 150 posts. Seems to be a lot considering I am on here all day and all night but haven't even got past 20! I guess I need to be more opinionated! I just love everything on here!

Oh good! I am happy that it is helpful! I spent so many hours searching for exactly how to do it, what exactly I needed and the measurements, so I'm glad this helped someone!

Torilynnsmith-I used some clipart images from my computer and then saved it and inserted into powerpoint to change the dimensions and colors like I wanted them (I used the washout feature). If you need help finding one and getting it to be washout style let me know and I will help you! Skp1-I did set the bar high for my invites....a little too high! Oops! I didn't even think of that when I was making them!
