Ordered the italian linen suit yesterday. Keeping my fingers crossed. I hope it works out...

I just placed my order with Babyonline. I am getting the replica Maggie Reese Dress. I am super nervous, anxious, excited. They say it should be ready in 20 days. That is really quick! I hope it works out. I am using this dress for my TTD, so I am not super worried, but I would like to avoid having to pay additional costs for alterations etc. It does seem that a lot of ladies have found the dress comes back too big (and not just one seller). I wonder if they add a few inches on purpose thinking we exaggerate and make ourselves thinner, since it is easier to take a dress in than take it out. Hmmmmm... I will keep you ladies updated and post pictures once they come in. It's the least I can do for the hours I have spent stalking this forum and thread. When I msged them, I asked if they had done this dress before, and whether they had any pictures they could send me. Although they havent done this exact, dress they did do one like it. Here is the inspiration pick for comparison sake. This is the picture they did with similar bead work if my dress comes out like this, I will be thrilled...

you look breathtaking. It's helpful that she had a great canvas to work with, but honestly, you are glowing! Congratulations.

beautiful!

They are stunning. Your guests are going to love them. I love the colours and the details.

That sucks! And I agree with you, they should be responsible for the shipping since the mistake was on their end. Obviously they don't want you to complain to DHGate about the refund, so I think you should use that as leverage. Who knows, it might light a fire under them.

For all past suites brides who ate at the Cabalash. Any entree suggestions or reviews?

I have to agree with the majority. I love the first. It's so unique. It makes the ring look like a piece of art.

How long did it take everyone to get their suits? (is there a difference between custom and set sizes for shipping times)

We are doing When I'm 64 by the Beatles. I didn't realize how against the grain it would be to not use a "sweet" or "sugar" song.... I just think it's a fun and cute song.

I'm interested. Hopefully it's a day I can go It was fun to see everyone last time.

That looks great! You did a great job. So creative. I'm sure your guests are going to be so excited when they receive it.

I don't know for sure what the chairs look like for the ceremony, but based on the look of them with the chair covers I am inclined to think they are the white plastic chairs. I would assume that you are having your ceremony on the beach, although even by the look of the ceremonies that are at the gazebo or the balcony, they seem to be the shape of the white plastic chairs.

Each restaurant has different chairs. If you look at the pictures in the attachment the hotel sent called "wedding details" it has pictures of the restaurants without any decorations/chair covers. I see you are getting married at the IRHB, I only have the wedding details attachment for the suites, so I can't send one. But if you look at those pictures, it should give you an idea. Hope that helps.

Does anyone have a drink menu/drink list from the Suites? We want to make signature drinks, and think it would be best if we based them on things we know they had.

Hi Strarry, Your date is getting close. I can't believe how quicly time is flying. You look beautiful! I remember when you were deciding between dresses. I think you made the best choice. And better to take it in than worry about the dress not fitting. I bought my dress a bit looser as well, just in case.

The pictures look great. Thank you for sharing! You were radiant. I get so excited when I see the pictures. Makes it feel so real. Misha did a wonderful job, you should be very happy.

Thank you so much! I am just nervous about which company to choose. It seems like so much rides on it.

Any bride used biddaydress.com? Any suggestions? recommendations? I want to get a replica Maggie Reese dress for my TTD. Any suggestions on who would be the best to make this dress. The dress itself I think it simple, it's the beading that | am worried about. I don't need it to be 100%, bit don't want the bead work to look skimpy either. I have read through each page of this thread, and know that some place are better at certain types of dresses. I know I would be spending a fraction of the dress's true cost (if bought "real") but don't want to loose hundreds of dollars on a gamble either. Thanks for any help you guys can offer. I really don't know where I would be without BDW.

Is is possible to share your template for the wedding week survival tag. It's possible I missed it, although I have gone through this thread more than once, since it is such an inspiration! You are the Martha Stewart of DW! Your guests will love the detail you put into the wedding.

Thanks everyone for the responses... Glad to see other people didn't know the answer to this one off hand...

ok...let me start by saying, I am probably over thinking this...but... When you sign your marriage lisence, do you sign it with your name and "maiden name" or a new signature with you "new last name", since you are technically now man and wife.... (This is assuming your are going to change your name after the marriage) if I don't ask now, I can see myself asking when I am signing...
