May 2009 Brides

Welcome back! I'm actually jealous that you were not "planning" for this long. I can't even focus long enough to "not plan". I feel like my brain is working overtime with this stuff.

 

Blkatz- You are getting so close. Your ticker is down to days! exciting.

 

Tracy- good for you on the weight loss. Wear that bandeau!

Last time I was in Rome, the picture hawkers that were carrying instant cameras around Trevi Fountain weren't carrying Polaroids - they were carrying Fuji Instax cameras. As you may know, Polaroid has or will soon stop making instant film! The Instax cameras are cheaper than the Polaroids. I found this one on amazon for around $50.

Hope that helps!

I know it is so close!! I only have 19 days until we leave and I feel like I still have so much to do but I just dont know!
Jay and I fight about his outfit all the time and he told me that he will take care of it-that makes me nervous!

Well I’m now VERY STRESSED!!! I have to say reading this thread up to now I have felt for you some that where having problems with different issues and people with issues. I have had a really easy ride. Until now!! My MOH is separating from her husband, two of the girls dresses don’t fit, and two other couples that were traveling with us are now splitting up too!! My one BM that her dress doesn’t fit I haven’t talked or heard from her in 2 months…after calling and messaging her. I’m about ready to have a break down!! Man I honestly can’t believe this. My bridal shower is next week-end and it needs to be moved and I still have a crap load of things to get ready for the wedding but I feel horrible asking my MOH to help me because of her situation. How can I be happy about my next step when her world is crumbling?? Help…and thanks for listening/reading!!

I am so sorry you are going through all that before your wedding!! Try not to let it all stress you out (I know, I know...easier said than done). This is about YOU. Remember that it will all work out in the end. I have been freaking about everything too and a good friend told me that it doesn't help anything. We have to be able to enjoy this time in our life.

Do you think that the film for the Instax is the same size as the Polaroid film? I tried to search it, but can't seem to find anything on it.

This is the guest book I want to get, but am worried the film won't fit!

i agree with you girls, bandeaus look terrible on everyone but are necessary.

i'm halter bikiniing it for the first few days and self tannering the lines every night, then bandeauing it the 2 days before my wedding to hopefully even it out with actual tan

 

kgeen, don't feel bad asking for help. as your MOH she's probably your best friend so she'll be there for you regardless of her situation. or maybe there's family you can ask to help?

 

one month til we leave! finally it feels like i'm getting there

 

- just ordered LED ice cubes since our reception is an outdoor poolside one. i think it'll be pretty for pictures and i'm surprised FI agreed. lol

- also ordered my wedding wishing well card box for my AHR and ties for the men

- found a pool beer pong set at Spencers so i didn't have to order it online, yessss!

 

now if only i could get around to mailing the pile of AHR invites sitting on my dining room table i'd be that much happier

[Blkatz]

that is fun the LED ice cubes! Are you going to give them to the bar tenders to put in the drinks or just give them out at your reception?
