Brandy - Thanks for making me feel so much better by posting that you haven't done BM dresses yet either. My sister is freaking out that it won't be done in time. I wasn't too worried because we still have 12 weeks until we leave.

Well it was so up in the air whether or not she was even coming!! So I got tired of even worrying about it honestly I mean if we dont find anything at the bridal shop then she will just have to find a dress at Macy's or something, like I said I got tired of stressing over it, it just wasnt worth it, whats important is that my FI is standing up there with me!

You all know I had the same issue....I think we are going with the convirtable dress. Have you showed that to your BM?

Thanks for the link Brandy. I tried to post last night that I found it but the system kept screwing up on me so it just reposted my post!

Anyway another story of crazy shipping for a 3lbs item for 24$ more than the actual bracelet! Uhhh

On another note I am super happy that all of my honeymoon hotels are booked for greece and I got 50% off the hilton in Athens! YAY! A great deal in Mykonos and Crete but I am paying through the nose for Santorini cause I wanted sun loungers and a jacuzzi on my verranda. Oh well it's my honeymoon and will only happen once right?

Made hopefully my last Vista Print order last night!!!

 

25 X Pre-Travel brochures

50 X Photo-share cards

1 X tote bag - I used the little pink bride & groom template and wrote "I'm The Bride!" on it! haha

1 X mug (for home and it was free)

 

Paid - $13

 

I'm happy with that!

[Lua]

wow - sounds like you got a great deal there Lisa!!!!!

 

on my wedding-to-do list for the weekend?

 

1. finish all of the luggage tags so they're ready to mail once the loops and brochures come

2. fix the ribbon on my bouquet

 

not too much i'm pretty on track with everything

Wow Lisa - your honeymoon sounds amazing!

 

My to-do list for the weekend:

- put waterproof labels on travel mugs

- try to find plastic vases to use for sand ceremony (to pour sand into our umbra frame)

- try to find cake boxes for the reception - I can't believe how expensive these are!  I went to Michaels and they had a 3 pack for $5 or something crazy!  And all the places I found online cost more for shipping than the actual boxes....

 

On an exciting note, we had a bunch more people book yesterday - we're now up to 51 and counting!!
