@@MJTK yayyyy for you Congrats lucky butt! and @@VegasBride121314 Congrats for the recovery of your messed up joke LMAO!

I had never heard of this. Whenever I go to a wedding I always love watching the look on the grooms face when he sees his bride for the first time, maybe i'm old fashion too but I absolutely want to have that moment.

I don't think it`s harsh, if there is a kids club and childcare they have options and they will probably enjoy some time alone.

Love the idea. Etsy has these ones, easier for travelling and fancy. https://www.etsy.com/ca/listing/157805928/25-silver-tissue-packets-with-patterned?ref=sr_gallery_21&ga_search_query=tissue+packet+wedding&ga_order=most_relevant&ga_search_type=all&ga_view_type=gallery

Lol you're right. Almost there!!

I guess what it boils down to is being surrounded by people that love you and support you. But it's easy to get wrapped up in all the shenanigans. I want everyone to be happy but it doesn't always end up that way. Oh well as my FI keeps saying it's our day and if someone isn't happy they can stay home!

@@linaco80 I agree with you. I will not be paying $300 either. I'm planning on buying a knock off dress for less than that amount.. would be kind of crazy to buy shoes that expensive. I just thought the concept of the website was interesting. I want to wear a wedge to walking in the sand... and I've been looking but it is not easy to find something fancy enough, that I like with a wedge. I saw a pair I ABSOLUTELY loved Jimmy Choo's, and they were $500 But I will keep looking I love shoe shopping!

aww that would be nice! I love when kids walk their mother down the aisle.

I found this website that I thought could be interesting for wedding shoes. A bit pricey but one of a kind for sure. Seems to be user friendly https://www.shoesofprey.com/

Lol! My thoughts exactly at least for the ceremony and pictures after that I don't really care. I'll make sure they have plenty of beer to help them out.

@@tygrrlily That should look really good. Are the groomsmen wearing long sleeves? We want my FI in a suit for sure, ideally I would like the groomsmen to at least have nice long sleeve shirts... not sure if it's too mean to make them suffer in the heat.

Vegas is so much fun. That's where my FI and I met for the first time and had a blast. We can`t wait to go back! Enjoy

I didn't think there were so many of us bow haters out there. I like the starfish idea

@@kmk2016 Actually we are getting married on the beach in Forida, My father in law lives there so I'll have a full kitchen. We will try to find a hotel that provides some type of wedding package and all our guests can stay there with us.

Cupcakes are my speciality I have done many for weddings and parties, I might attempt to do some for my own wedding and place them on a cupcake tier and have this topper, I kind of like that idea, although they have really funny toppers so idk! https://www.etsy.com/ca/listing/170876643/on-sale-wedding-cake-toppers-and-more?ref=br_feed_10&br_feed_tlp=weddings

I love the barefoot sandals, but i'm short so I want to have some type of heel. I think a wedge is the best way to go. Haven't looked for any yet, but I have the feeling it will not be an easy task to find something I like.

What if you go with white flowers. I love Calla lilies they are simple but elegant, and find a ribbon in the color you like which will match the chair sashes.

The first words out of my mouth when I saw the ring was WTF?! Not very lady like I know I was just in shock

Thank you ladies, It feels like the right thing to do, makes things easier for BP and we like the thought of including our fathers.

I'm a sucker for proposals... I always get teary-eyed

Those look like a pretty good match. I really like the sangria colour. Your profile picture matches all 3 dresses lol I'm guessing it's not a coincidence.

This is a great idea... there are only very few people I would trust posting a picture of me that I actually liked.. this is a good way to avoid pictures the bride does not approve.

After we drafted our first guest list we came up with a plan that does not include a best man or maid of honor. Our fathers would be our witnesses. This idea came because my FI did not know who he could ask as his best man without hurting his other friends. As far as my bridal party goes I would take my sister as MOH but for many reasons am not sure she would even attend our wedding. If that were the case I would ask his sister to be MOH but I really don't want her to feel like she is plan B because i really do care about her, she's awesome. My suggestion was that we ask our fathers to be our witnesses. That way everyone is on the ''same level'' as groomsmen and bridesmaids. Does this make sense to anyone else? If it doesn't feel free to share... i'm brainstorming here!

Yes I have!!! We are going on a cruise with his family for xmas and that is when I want to ask his sisters to be bridesmaids. but I was thinking of ordering everyone a t shirt that says KEEP CALM MY BROTHER IS GETTING MARRIED. Or something like that. Just for fun

I Know Right!!! I try my best to be happy no matter what peoples reaction is. When I fail to do so my fiance is great at bringing me back on track and helping me focus on what I WANT, which I haven`t done much in my life. I think most people cannot be supportive because they are unhappy in their own lives... or anyways it's what helps me make it through crazy stuff.
