  1. @@Wafflesmom My Mom and sister were there, I keep the dress at my mom's place. It's hard trying to zip up a dress on your own! lol It doesn't do up all the way yet, but I can hold it together at the back and see what it looks like. I'm going to get a corset back put into it. I'm so in love with it, I can't believe I get to wear something so beautiful!!!
  2. @@snswedding2016 I think your flowers look beautiful! I would only change them if it's a big deal to you, if not, they look gorgeous as is.
  3. Tried my dress on for the second time since I got it in February, but this time I tried it on with the veil, They look perfect together!!! I'm definitely going to get some veil weights and rock it for the ceremony. I didn't want to take my dress or veil off lol
  4. @@cruisebride2016 Well done on controlling yourself on a trip!!! You sound like you have a great mindset and great goals @@Wafflesmom Did you try HiitMax? I tried on my wedding dress this weekend, only the second time I've tried it on since I bought it in February. It is a bit closer to closing but I think I'm going to get the corset either way. My bit of weight loss was clear and I had more of an hour-glass figure in it, it looks like a different dress, I'm so happy!

  7. @@Wafflesmom Oh no you didn't offend me! I was just like ouch - she hates my hairstyle that much lol I'm sure you look beautiful no matter what hairstyle!
  8. @@Wafflesmom Everything looks great! I'm so happy to hear you still love your dress so much I think the hairstyle will look beautiful on you!
  9. I don't have any major updates, but been MIA this week so thought I should post something We went back to our original First Dance song choice: Ed Sheeran - Thinking Outloud It may be overplayed and everyone is using it but it was the first thing we decided on after getting engaged, before date or place or anything else. It still feels right. We have had another guest from the UK book. I found out they have until February to pay, I'm not worried about any of them not paying in full. I did my numbers wrong before, and with Col's friend booking the other day that now makes 24 from the UK. Two of our Canadian guests paid in full, their deadline is Oct 21st. With 17 coming from Canada, that leaves 15 of them to pay their balance - again I'm not worried about any of them not paying. So that brings our total to 41 guests (2 are children) plus Col and I! Still a few more to book. Nothing has really happened on the planning front, we've decided to look for our bands and the guys suits around the boxing day sales since we'll both have a bit of time off. This weekend I'm heading out with my mom to pick up some stuff for my shower in February and my best friend's bachelorette on the 24th. I feel like after her bachelorette, I can start to focus on my stuff a little bit more since she'll already have her shower and bachelorette out of the way. I'm getting so excited! When the two guests made their payments I had a real "this is happening" moment. Today one of the guys wrote in our wedding facebook group "Flip Tourney UK vs Canada anyone?" - It's going to be such an amazing week!!!

  12. Ahhh I've been so MIA this week! @@calgarybride2015 You're doing so amazing!!! @ Welcome back and good for you and your girlfriend making a pact! I'm here to support any time! @@Wafflesmom I'm so happy to hear you're feeling better!!! @@maybeoneday That's amazing weight loss! You should be super proud of yourself and enjoy your wedding week! You're so close!!! @@RivieraBride15 Wowww!!! Well done! You look great! @@vancouverpetunia You sound like you are so on track! Planning for your week is a great step, if you fall off slightly don't be too hard on yourself! You need to enjoy life! My Update: Went to spinning twice this week, weights once because it's been so crazy, but I'm hitting it hard this weekend. I've been really good with diet, and actually lost another lb. I've finally hit that point where people are starting to notice my weight loss, which is soooo motivating! This week's goals: Fitness - Spin again 2-3 times. HiitMax, repeat weeks 1/2. I should be moving onto week 3 but I find the first two weeks so challenging I'm going to repeat. Weights 4 times. Continue to eat well. Wedding - continue to work on music lists and get all the songs downloaded. We're going to check out the boxing day sales for our wedding bands and the guys suits so that's temp on hold. We had more people book and a couple people pay in full... so reality hit! lol will update in my planning thread. Thanks again as always for being so motivating!!! xoxo

    Engagement Photos

    We had our engagement photos done about 2 months after getting engaged. It was cold but we love how they turned out!
  17. So exciting!!! I'm going to try to sneak out a bit early. Hoping to be there by 630 at the absolute latest!!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  18. Thanks @@calgarybride2015!!! I kick myself in the butt a bit because I wasn't consistent. So I hope to see a lot more progress this time when I stick to it!
  19. @@Wafflesmom @@vancouverpetunia @@SunshineDreamKay Yay! Thank you! It's been a roller coaster ride with this but I'm glad I got it back, they have given it back to the employees who were actually using it, which I think makes sense. I got on the scale today - I've lost 7 lbs since the end of July! I didn't even realize until I found the notes I made in July when I wrote down a starting weight. It's slow progress, but it's progress and I'm happy about it! I started my hiitmax again this week, it's killer and I love it! Have been eating really clean and working out 6 days a week. Will get back on my spinning next week when our memberships kick back in. In terms of wedding planning, we are 3 weeks away from the payment deadline for the Canadians. So just going to continue to focus on loading the wedding app with our music and working on our layouts for the items we'll be printing. I've been on the lookout for some additional floral for my bouquet, if you ladies have seen my thread you have seen that it's a work in progress. Col's still looking into suits and now his brother is in Brazil for a bit so we won't get his measurements back until he returns. @@Wafflesmom gave me some piece of mind though, I was thinking we were late in getting the suits sorted but she made me feel better So in addition to this, over the next couple of weeks I'll just be working on planning my best friend's bachelorette party that is on the 24th. Lots on the go! You ladies are doing amazing! Keep up the momentum and thank you for motivating me!
  20. @@Wafflesmom I love your positive outlook!!! We have to pay what we have to pay regardless. Some GBP's offer a free wedding package with so many bookings but of course ours doesn't.
