I have a question about the reception. It is not private at all? Can there be any dancing or anything like that? Or is that another option? Just confused.... And curious...

I love ALL of these! Great pics!

I totally agree! If you like the way it looks, it will look great together! Besides, you already said that there aren't BM, so it is not like any pics will clash or anything. I think it will all work out, and why stress about it? Just do what you love!

Congratulations! Everything looks great! (I love that pink frame too!) You did such a great job!

Congratulations! Everything looks great! I LOVE the boarding pass invites - your colours look fabulous together!

Thanks for posting this picture! I love that look and it is pretty much exactly what we are looking for!

Dominican, but not for, like, 2 years. I am just checking things out now. You?

Well congratulations - that is a fabulous proposal story! Especially from a fellow southern Alberta gal!

Not sure if this has already been covered or if there is a better place to ask, but anyway.... He wants to wear linen pants (tan) and a white shirt, which I love the look of (we are going simple), and GM will probably be in something similar. It doesn't matter to me whether it is long or short sleeves. Would it be weird to have them wear bouts even though they are so casual? I think it might work but I am really not sure. Any suggestions?

Thanks for this! I have been torn too, since he will be wearing a white shirt probably, but I much prefer ivory for myself.

I saw this online and thought it looked lovely!

No way! I'm in Lethbridge!

This is so beautiful! Where is it from? I really love the low in front, long in back style.... I have a tattoo on my leg I love, but some family members don't so I would like to cover it up, but I also love the idea of a short dress. And this looks so perfect for a destination wedding! I love it!

What a sweet story! (PS - I'm an Alberta gal too and love the zoolights! Where are you from?)

oh, I cannot wait to get to 150!

So hot! Wow!

Those shells are perfect! Thanks for sharing - that is exactly what I am looking for. And from the dollar tree - even better!

Where is this one from? I like that it is longer in the back.... I am imagining it in white and I think it would be lovely!

Hahaha! I laughed so hard when I read those! Your guests will too, I am sure!

I love puzzlemaker too! I use it all the time - for my students, as well as the welcome books I will be (eventually) putting together. Thanks for the idea of putting it in photoshop... It turned out great!

This is awesome! Definitely scouring this for some AHR ideas. I had no idea that they had a website!

Good thread! We haven't picked them out, but I am only looking at ones $75 or lower (hopefully below $40), so I will be paying. I only have 2 - my little sister and a friend from college. My little sister is graduating from high school that same year, and I was a BM in my friend's wedding, who made/paid for everything for us, so I am okay doing the same. I will also be getting them some small gifts, which I have been/ will be collecting throughout the whole engagement (coconut travel size body lotion, beach bag, small clutch, jewelery, maybe a pashmina?). I also want to get them each a flask and maybe pay for a manicure too? Not sure about that yet. With my sister just graduating, and my friend about to start a family, I want to help out as much as I can. They are the only place I am really splurging on the whole wedding! (And that being said, not really splurging that much - everything is knock-off and on sale! Super inexpensive, but doesn't look that way... another benefit of a long engagement... I have time to keep my eyes open for deals for a long time!)

Yes, I love that song and it is beautiful, but it doesn't really work in a combined one, does it? Maybe I am wrong...

Oh that would be so awesome! Excellent idea! Check out youtube, and I will keep brainstorming for you.

How "fun" are you looking for? If you search Youtube there are TONS of ideas there. I have spent hours on there looking at one after another.
