It's gorgeous and you look so happy in it!! I am glad you found what you loved in a price range you could afford - even if top end you still snuck it in That dress looks like you paid a million dollars!!! Congrats!

I looked at them all, of course. It was so fun to see a lot of your items because I hadn't seen them on here! What exactly was your guestbook? Your print material was fantastic - great job and all your decor look fabulous. Obviously I love your color choices I loved how your mom and dad were in the green color and could you look anymore like him? Absolutely fantastic pictures. Your dress, your hair, everything was gorgeous. Glad you had a great time. Looked like a fabulous space!

Omg!!! You are gorgeous. Absolutely stunning. I am so glad it was all you imagined and more. Great advice off to look at all 999 on Facebook Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

@@Lia33 they look fantastic! Can't wait to see some wedding pics when you return!!

I spent about $80 per girl on their gifts and I also paid $40'of each of their dresses. I wish I could have done more but the girls were shocked and super happy with it. Do what you can Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Plastic wrap is a great idea too! Here is a picture before I bubble wrapped them. There was two layers and a piece of cardboard between them and on top. Please come back with pictures. We'd love to see them you will get it all done and have an amazing time. Congrats. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I had 48. I got about 43 in a 30 inch suitcase and the other 5 I packed in our clothes bags. I think you will be fine stacking. If you are worried maybe place a small piece of ?tissue paper? Over each label to protect them. I also recommend bubble wrapping each set you've stacked and then the straws too in small groups. I was lucky that none broke but other brides did have some break so bring extras if you have them. OMG 3 weeks!!! That is so exciting. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Me too. We talk about it a lot actually. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I didn't stack my cups as I had them full of stuff. I think the only issue you may encounter is scuffs on the labels but honestly I think you'd be fine. I believe @@tygrrlily stacked hers. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yes please post pics sometimes I wish I had more diamonds lol I totally get it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Absolutely gorgeous. There is one in the first look where the emotion in your husbands face is so touching. Love them Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I'm probably not the best one to answer. I think it's great to have a video of some sort as the day is a blur and it was great to actually see what happened at the ceremony. That said, I've watched it 6 times in 6 months so not sure I would blow your budget over it. If it's included in your package use that route or have a friend videotape it. That's what I had - someone taped it and I had no idea. Hindsite I'm super glad!! But again unless this is super important to you I wouldn't blow your budget. Use what's included still if you can. But if you really feel it's important to you, then you can't go wrong splurging. Just depends. See wasn't much help lol. Congrats. 3 weeks will fly by. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Gorgeous!!! OMG looks fantastic. So glad it all worked out for you, I know it's such a relief yay! 1.5 months now. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Spring and Aldo also are other suggestions to try. I agree with @@yycbride2016 that they seem pretty pricey! Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I like the second ones best too but like the first ones also! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hahahha love them!! Oddly I've seen the big pink penis somewhere before. Oh wait, may have been at mine Good luck with the dance. I'd be a little stressed too just do the best you can Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Omg you look gorgeous!! The veil looks super fab too. I am so happy for you! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

What?? You are far more sophisticated than I silly girl. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Congrats on the new job!! As I said above love your invites and STDs. Turned our awesome. I think plum would be awesome on the beach. Love that color too. Red is also beautiful. Can't go wrong with either. Look forward to more. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Love. Great job!!!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

So sorry you had to go thru all if this. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Oh I'm so glad that it all came around for you!!! Makes it that much more special and it's gorgeous. I know you want Doug's jaw to drop and it will Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Gorgeous friend. Congrats! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I agree with everyone else. Do what's important you two only! This is your day and you never want to look back with regret. I also had people complain and make suggestions and they never even ended up coming. The people who are important will make it work. Those who don't, won't. Good luck.

I believe David's Bridal would have a large selection for you in wedding and bridesmaid's dresses that are more on the casual side. They have a large large selection under $1000. My wedding gown was only $500. You can look online too - just use the online shopping area, then choose Canada and you will find pages and pages of dresses. You can also narrow your search by styles, prices, etc. Le Chateau may have something. Laura also has a selection of dresses, but I haven't seen white there - although I wasn't really looking. RW&Co had a cute spring dress recently that was white also.
