Chiquita's (Lisa's) Planning Thread! Yay!

[Chiquita]

I can't believe it's finally my time to post up my planning thread. I cannot thank this forum enough for all the inspiration and great friends I've made during the wedding process. I've never been a DIY'er but since joining this forum I've made my STD's, invites and a few other things. My wedding has been greatly improved from the ideas and suggestions off this forum. It's been a life-saver in SO many ways.

 

Jayson and I had a long engagement.. almost a year and a half. I found this forum shortly after we were engaged in June of 2007 so had plenty of time to plan and gather all the great ideas that were offered on here. I've had so many compliments on my boarding pass invites it's crazy. It made it all worthwhile to create them myself.

 

Thanks to all my november gals... you've kept me on track for what has been done and what still needed to get done. I love you all and can't wait until we are all back and can share in our magical wedding days.. big hugs and kisses!
