Calgary Brides!

Hi all!

 

My wedding is two weeks today, and I leave in 12 days!!  I am SO ridiculously excited, but also have heart palpitations every time I think about it!  Most everything is taken care of, I just need to finalize my music playlist.

 

Natalie, congrats on making your group!  I used www.mywedding.com for my wedding website, and even did my RSVP through them.  Connie is pretty quick when it comes to the dresses, but I would give her a couple of months, just to be safe.  Honestly, the sooner the better.

 

Good luck!

Hey Ladies

 

Good to hear you got your group booking Natalie!!  My dress is at Connie's.  I get to go visit it tomorrow   I took it in last week and she will have it all pinned for me tomorrow.  i will find out then how much longer it will take and let you know.  I think she is pretty quick but don't leave it to the last minute.

 

Yay Pam, you must be so excited!!!  I have so many lists on the go that I need to make one and go from there.  Have a wonderful time, can't wait to hear all about it when you get back.

Hey everyone,

 

Just wondering if anyone knows a good travel agent in NW Calgary. We are booked for our wedding at Dreams Puerto Vallarta in Feb 2012.

 

Thanks

Nat! Don't stress! My mantra through all of this is that it's a DW: it's not suppose to be stressful. Regardless of what happens, everything will be beautiful!

 

We used Wedding Window for ours, which is so comprehensive. It gives you options for like a million pages (at least 50). You can check mine out here:

On another note, we FINALLY got our invitation sample in the mail today!!! Damn USPS mail! They look gorgeous! So happy I decided to go with letterpress

Good news - I have 20 guests booked so far and I hit my group requirement!!!!!  I am sooo excited!

 

On another note, our weddings are coming so closer - mine is 3 months out today and I know a couple of you are getting married next month!!!! Is anyone having massive stress?  I AM

I don't even know why as I am pretty much on the ball with everything.  How are you ladies all doing?  I do need to create a wedding website and was wondering if you guys have any suggestions of which site to use?  Also, I need to go see Connie to do all my dress fittings.  I need them to be finalized by April 1st!  When should I contact her to start the process?

 

Are we getting together soon - we need to see the FEB brides before they leave!

eeeeee - hopefully I don't have an issue getting my alterations done by Connie - I ordered my dress in July and its still not in!!  I was told it would be here sometime in Feb and I leave on March 31 so I hope I have enough time!!

Just let Connie know that you are on a tight timeline and I'm sure she will be able to do it for you

I used The Knot for my website and I would NOT recommend it. It was glitchy, hard to foramt and messed up half the stuff I posted. I wish I used Wedding Window!

[MissNatalie18]

Thanks ladies for all the tips!

 

Pam - I set up my website last night on mywedding! It is amazing, free and just what I wanted.  All my RSVPs are going through there now!! This will save me a lot of money.

 

Nat - your site is amazing - it is so detailed!

 

Thanks guys!

I'm so glad you managed to get 2 more people booked!!  One less thing to stress about, yay

 

Our wedding is now 36 days away and I am freaking out!!  Not because we're getting married, but because I still have a pile of stuff do to -- like finish getting invitations out hahaha!  Everyone knows the when and where already, and whoever is coming is already booked so its not a huge deal... but I feel like a gigantic ass for not having them all out yet.   I used wedquarters for our wedding website (and I do not recommend it... its very useless, I accidentally signed up for the wrong site and had meant to sign up for a different one instead).

As for getting together before the next set of weddings, I'd love to!  I'm out of town from the 21 to the 30, but good anytime before/after

Hey Everyone

 

We're getting married in Maui November of this year!!!  I was wondering where people have find out about sample sales or sales on dresses?  I found my dress (totally wasn't expecting to!) but want to find a cheap dress for our TTD shoot!!!

 

Thanks in advance!
