Our jack and jill was a great success. It was very overwhelming to see the love and support from our families and friends. Everything went well. We had a ton of food left over and donated it to a local men's shelter. It was a fabulous night. My only regret was not having a DJ. I would definitely try and find a friend who does this or is at least willing to man the music all night. There wasn't much dancing because of this. It was still a great time. So you remember the story about me posting an ad on the internet trying to find my photographer.......well I was a little worried because we had not met her yet. Her and her husband came to the J & J. It was sooo nice to meet them and they are very down to earth people like us so that's perfect. We mesh very well and I can't wait to work with them. Glad that worked out well. I was a little worried. I'm hoping she will send me some of the pictures she took. I didn't take any Flowers will be in next week. Very excited to see how they turned out. The bridesmaids dresses are in. We are going next Thursday to try them on and get all set for the alterations. Kay have you purchased your wedding bands yet? That's one thing we have left to do. Then a bunch of smaller things and we should be good to go! Carina. I LOVE dessert tables. I can't wait to see all of your DIY stuff. Hi Alley, Im glad your stag and doe was a success!! That is amazing that your photographer came and you got to meet her What are her packages/prices like? Stuff is coming along for you Flowers.... dresses !! We did purchase our bands a long time ago, just to get it out of the way.... Hubby wanted a bling classic band, I don't like it at all but he has to wear it Here they are: (The pictures don't do much justice at all) Mine FI's

So I think Jan-May are going to fly right by and I hate being stressed out, so might as well finish it up and not have to worry about it! We also decided yesterday that we are just going to do a dessert table for our wedding here, but now I have a bunch of diy ideas for that as well and not to mention I have to figure what to buy/make for the dessert table... luckily I have a friend who owns a dessert restaurant so she's going to help me out with picking our some desserts and décor ideas... shes so good at that stuff so that will be really helpful! A desert table is a good idea; what are your AHR plans all together... ?
  3. Happy wedding day Lydia, Congrats as you are already married!!!! xo Kay

Maybe this weekend I can get some stuff done I know... it has FLOWN by, I've slaked so much and now I feel like I have so much to do. But everything will get done for sure Stag and Doe this weekend... Alley how was yours this past weekend? After the stag and doe, I need to finish all wedding stuff and start figuring out the AHR, invitations for that need to go out in December. Sometimes between the DW, stag and doe and AHR I feel like I have planned a bunch of weddings lol. And CSHO try and get as much out of the way now, I was always like oh I'm good I have time and than the time has just flown by, feels like summer was last week and now November is almost over!!!!

I know other people who have used a Bose speaker system and said that it worked pretty well. I am sure they will have something but I'd bring something as back up just in case if you are super set on certain songs. They do have speakers and whatnot set up at the ceremony site, and have someone from the entertainment crew controlling it. Im just worried about it getting messes up or something. I'm sure everything will go fine.

I am sooo happy with how everything is coming to together! I think its going to look so good! I feel like when I started I was so lost and all over the place and now my vision is finally all coming together! I get you! At first there is SO SO much to think about.... picking the resort, picking a travel agent,etc, etc, etc, etc !!! Once all the basics are figured out, you can focus on the DIY projects, so much fun Soon I am going to be doing example pictures for how I would like the dinner tables set up, the guest book table, etc. - once I do these I will share them I am worried about one thing and that is the music... we have a song for the bridesmaids to walk down the aisle to, than another one for my dad and I to walk down to, signing song (which I'm not too worried weather this happens or not), and a recessional song. Also we have choose songs for our entrances, first dance, father/daughter dance, cake cutting. This is the main thing I am worried about at this stage.....

Did you buy it from a certain seller? Hi Alley, I ordered it from palmettoseller, but other sellers had it up for sale as well.

Maybe they can add them to your order so you don't have to pay shipping twice. I will look for that linen jacket on ebay. I'm looking for a different colour. Hopefully I can find it. Love the blue. It matches perfectly with your colour theme. Can't wait to see it all come together. Hi Alley, I know I love those sandals... but there's a lot going on with the guys right now and ya.... lol didn't want to spend the money buying them for them. Long story. Good luck they did have different colours of the blazer
  13. Quote: Originally Posted by alley08 Sorry Kay....is that where you got the blue jacket? Alley, I got the blue jacket on ebay, just search blue linen blazer..
  14. Quote: Originally Posted by alley08 I will do that for sure Kay. Those outfits look great. Is that jacket linen? Yes the jacket is linen, I already have the blue jacket..... LOVE it!
  15. Quote: Originally Posted by alley08 WOWZA. Sooooo soon! Good luck with everything. I can't wait to see your pictures! Ours is this Saturday. Everything is set and ready to go. Hopefully everything comes together. Waterproof labels is a great idea! Can't wait to see them all put together. We got the guys pants. You can see the front and the back of them. They are wearing their shirts too. I don't have a picture of all three of them together. Two was the best I had. lol I was a little worried about putting a linen shirt and a light dress pant together but I love the way it looks. I'm hoping for them to wear a white dock shoe or a nice flip flop. Let me know how yours goes Alley The guys attire looks great, I finally just ordered the men's attire which will be: Andrew, my FI is wearing the same but with this jacket: I am SOOO happy the guys stuff is now taken care of! They just need sandals, which I don't really care if they match or not as long as they are black!!! I ordered from Island Importer, I will update once they arrive on how they are!

Those shirts are awesome. That's one thing I'm sad we are missing. Hopefully I can make some name tags or something so people will know who my "peeps" are. lol When is your jack and jill? Our jack and jill is Nov. 22th .... Everything is basically purchased and done for it. I made the prize gift baskets last night! I will post pictures tonight. I think I am going to purchase waterprof labels that I can print through my printer..... When is your jack and jill??
  17. How much for the purple lanterns to Canada postal code L9T6H2? Thanks!
  18. Alley! I LOVE your cake topper, sooooooo cute!! Good job! And some good finds at Creative bag for you
  19. Happy Saturday Ladies, I have been busy planning our stag and doe, it is going well. I made these shirts for the stag and doe, still have to make the men's. I have also been busy getting stuff for the wedding. I got 50 of these cups from Dollarama (we take these exact cups every year with us to Cuba) So we bought one for each guest, I am going to personalize them for each guest somehow. I got them in a variety of colours, $2/each. I went to creative bag in Missisagua today and didn't find anything They only have sand in the summer, so I have to order it online if I would like it. I have some sand from Michaels, but not the exact colours I wanted. So we will see... How is everyone doing? Kay xo
