April 2011 Brides

Mocha, I'm SO JEALOUS of your pink crinoline!!!! So pretty!

 

January is going to be a busy month... I go for my first dress fitting on the 15th (time to get rid of this holiday weight, ughhh)

"The Wonderful Wedding Show" to go to Jan.22

Go to update our registries sometime soon.

Plus we need to get the groomsmen their pants... all the guys (including FI) still need ties (why is it so hard to find turquoise ties???).

I NEED my shoes before my dress fitting (again, turquoise shoes... can't find anything I like).

I still don't have my wedding ring... FI has his at least.

Get the invites going. I'm still waiting on a call from my printers as we're doing a few test runs on different stock.

... and the list continues.

 

On top of it all we want to start looking for a house sometime this month. Horay!

Teira, I was wondering the same thing!!!  I know Im not going to be able to get in the dress by myself so I was wondering if I should let him lace it up, but should he see it or not, I mean he did pay for it so hes probably going to want to see it! He saw it online just not on me, I dont know what to do yet either! I guess I'll decide tonight and see what he thinks too.  I wouldnt say its bad luck or anything like that, I just want it to be more of a suprise than anything.

I have tried it on. I'm really happy with it, but haven't taken pictures. I will try to remember tonight.

Brandy- cant wait to see pictures of your dress! my 3 TTDs should be here today too! I'm so excited hopefully one of them will work out for me.

I know I dont want FI to see my actual wedding dress before the wedding but is it bad luck if he sees my TTD before hand?!

 

Thanks so much. I tried on my reception dress for my FI and I think he wanted it to be a surprise, but was happy to see it. I appreciate his opinion and advice. After all, he will be watching me wear it all night.

I fell in love with the look the first time I saw a fuchsia crinoline. And don't worry, we all have long lists, that seem to get longer each day.

I think you should be able to find someone at the resort to do up your dress, even if it is your WC or someone at the salon. He might not want to leave your room once he sees you in your dress.

Oh I meant when I try it on tonight, Im going to need him to help me lace it up, but I dont know if I want him to see it though!

[mochamakes3]

Brandy - Oops... it's your TTD so I think it's fine. Plus, you'll need him to take the pictures to post on here hee hee.

[jana297]

Agreed it is the TTD it should be ok to heck with tradition anyways. We are 2011 chicks now!!

[Brandy]

Yeah true lol, Im sure he wants to see it anyways, and the next time I try it on I hope to be 20 pounds lighter!!!

[mochamakes3]

I'm sure you will look beautiful even if you are 20 pounds heavier. After all, they all proposed marriage before the gorgeous hair, dress, makeup and body toning.

[Brandy]

LOL, this is true Mocha!

I agree, I think it would be fine for him to see you in the dress your using for TTD.  If it was me, I would let him see it.

 

Tris, have you checked Men's Warehouse?  We were there a few weeks ago and I know they had some turquoise ties...  JC Penney's has a bunch of options too....or even Kohl's... 

 

I need to make an appointment for my first dress fitting... I don't really want to do that!
