  1. I agree with all said above. Pinks, purples, white..... even just a tropical mix of pinks, yellows, oranges would be beautiful. Recently I found Pinterest and you can find a lot on there for inspiration!
  2. I have short hair too. Probably the only time in my life I am jealous!
  3. It's cute! I think it depends how snug it is.... if it is mildly snug and you think 5 lbs will do the trick then I say keep it. Otherwise I would probably exchange for the 8 to be safe.
  4. ohhh and check on kijiji. There is a company who posts hair pieces on there that is located in Calgary.. Silver something, can't think of it off the top of my mind!
  5. Have you checked David's Bridal? They have some items that are reasonably priced and some that are not LOL!!! There are those accessory stores, like Claire's, but I think you would notice the quality difference. Also, what about stores that sell special event/prom dresses? We have one here called Oksana's and they sell stuff like this as well.
  6. They did turn out great. Thank you! I'll take a peak. I love the thank you letter but since we are only doing tumblers, unsure where/when to give it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  7. @khmciver Did you make the itineraries, thank you letter, etc. yourself or did you purchase it from Etsy? I would possibly like to do something similar. Thank you!
  8. I agree with the ladies above! This is a day for you and your fiance, and it should reflect you, noone else. I would hate for any of us to look back and be disappointed in our choices because we were pleasing everyone else except ourselves. I would just not include her in things. Don't email her things to ask for her opinion, because you are just allowing her response. Why not do what you two want to do, then send her the final product? Or better yet, just let her wait until it comes in the mail or whatever. Find something small that doesn't mean as much to you that you can include her in, if you feel the need. But remember this is your day, NOT HERS! and don't feel bad, especially if she is not paying -- and you should know this!!!. Your fiance needs to learn to stand up to her, because from her on out it's about you two and your new family. Good luck
  9. That's what I do but I know her well and she knows my tastes. In Mexico you are probably safe to say 'whatever you think will look good' as these ladies do hair day in and day out for weddings, but I think it's probably safer to bring along pictures to show them. Incase they pick that one style you despise. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  10. We won't be having any children together as I have twins from a past relationship. They are close to 9 years old. Given our ages (34,40) and those of my kids we feel it's best to bask in them I also had some surgical work done that would be all for not having more kids! That said I was 25 when mine were born and felt it was a perfect age. Timing is all up to you. If you are ready once the wedding is over and in a good spot in your lives (financially secure, done school, etc) then I see no reason not to start right after your married. Not sure your moms reasonings??? Unless maybe she wants you to enjoy being a married couple and work on this new bond first? School is much easier single than with kids - I did nursing school with newborn twins and it was tough!!! I'd recommend to get that all done first. Good luck! And happy baby making when it's time hehe Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  11. Agree. I wanna see!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  12. Awesome, congrats!!! Enjoy the planning!
  13. Exactly . It's not that I don't travel with medical I just have never purchased cancellation! But this time I am!!!! Thanks Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  14. Thanks for the heads up! We aren't doing them now - I win heheh but someone else will also find this useful I am sure. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  15. That's a little insight into my personality type. I hate grammar and spelling mistakes on written materials - people always ask me to proofread things! Minus my spelling and grammar when using my iphone for BDW hahah! I probably would have stuck to the 'cut and paste' fix, but I kept looking at it and it was driving me mental. So Shawn told me to spend the $20. If it was my invitation I would never have accepted it, so why this, you know? I am NOT looking at the brochure again, because if there is anything else there I won't be ordering another set.
  16. Take Care, hope everything is ok! Thanks again for your help!
  17. I put ' Used bottled water for drinking and brushing your teeth' ewwww LOL!!! So mad that none of us picked up on it, as I had 4 people and myself proofread it numerous times. Vistaprint has a 40% off coupon that ends today, so it makes me a little less upset lol
  18. As much as this is a piss off, I am re-ordering my pre-travel brochure and fixing the mistake. I tried hard to accept it, I tried hard to cover it up (cut and paste over hahaha), and it makes me ill to think I am mailing out something like this! So Shawn told me to suck up the $20 and do it, so I am.
  19. We also have Sally's in Canada! I would think clip ins would be what the resort would use - I know my resort's spa offers them but it doesn't list which kind.
  20. Awe so sweet. What a memorable proposal. I've never been to Niagara Falls but it looks beautiful. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  21. My friend wore one at her wedding, sorry this is the only picture I could find on FB that shows it's length. I think it looks stunning
  22. These aren't my colors, but wanted to pop in here and tell you that 1. you are a beautiful bride, LOVED your pictures and 2. you are also a crafty lady, your decorations are fantastic. Congrats!
