April 2011 Brides

Those bags are going to look great Teira!  And I love the idea of personalizing them with each individual's name - I did that with my travel mugs as well - nothing worse than trying to figure out who's is who's all the time!

 

Oh, and another great place for bathingsuits for us large chested gals is www.barenecessities.com - they have really cute ones in bra sizes with support - highly recommended!!

 

Have a great weekend everyone!

Right now, they have their "island" line small candles 3 for $5. Check them out! They come in orange, white, pink, green-- they are perfect for OOT bags or bridal shower favors. Each one of them have a cute name "Island Margarita" or "Pink Sangria", etc. Just had to pass it along!! I fell in love with them.

Mocha - I absolutely love your picture!  That would be perfect for the front cover! 

 

Laura - I really like that powerpoint image, even with the black!

 

Teira - Your bags will look great with that on them!

I wish I could exercise! I've been so bummed about not being able to. I tore a ligament & fractured the back of my knee cap a few weeks ago. I had surgery 2 weeks ago so no exercise for me   That's what I get for procrastinating! Now I have to totally depend on diet to lose the weight. Good luck to you all though!

Holy Cow it is taking me forever to get through the thousands (ok i exagerare lol) messages, you guys have blown up my computer its soooo slow

 

Ok here is goes, i hope i can remember everything i thought about while reading

Lua-I love the picture of that dress and I don't think it is too informal for a destination wedding at all, I think it is perfectly appropriate. Drive safe, they are calling for snow tomorrow and can't wait to see the final look. Post pics please.

Brandy-i love that guestbook. Wish I would have seen that earlier cause I would have went with that! The dress you posted is perfect also for a destination wedding. You want everyone to be comfortable and in material that they are going to sweat buckets in so I think it's great and mom will look hot in anything she wears I am sure! Oh and muscle weighs more than fat for sure but I find when I start working out i retain more water to repair the muscles and that keeps the weight on but it really starts coming off after three weeks straight. And I think I am going to get that aqua blue linen shirt for FI with the white linen suit from Studiosuits now that I hear they have great quality. Still a little worried about how thick they are and if they will be hot because they are a blended linen suit.

Mocha-Holy O WOW, that picture is hot hot hot! I am a little crazy with bathing suits and bring at least 5 lol

Bailey- OMG I freakin love those shoes but could never wear them booo!!!!!

Teira- I like the iron on's and the idea of personalization cause your guests will really appreciate that but would suggest making the date and first line a little bigger cause in the pic it seems very small and when you print, it might not come out that great. Rest looks fab though!

Erin-It definately is a privelege and not a right for sure!

 

Sorry if I forgot anything! Enjoy the weekend ladies

Teira - It's funny what we picture in our minds. I love what you are doing for your bags. Ours are bright orange, so I just did a simple logo.

 

Thanks ladies, I wish I had more time to prepare for the shoot, but I'm glad that most of the pictures turned out. I'm going to start working on the book tonight. Any ideas for what to inscribe or romantic captions? My only idea so far is with the picture of the champagne glass, "Soon we will be toasting as husband and wife."

[Tennyt1]

Yes Mocha  you look amazing in that shot!!!!!!!!!!!!

[nucci]

Ok so I've been totally MIA cause everytime I check this forum I start to have anxiety.  You ladies are SO on top of everything!!!  Now that we basically have our final count I am going to start doing all the little things.  I need help though!!!  Everytime I start to think about it I get overwhelmed and give up!!!

 

What is everyone putting in their OOT bags??  Where should I look for everything?

Are you ladies doing wedding day programs??

How about guestbook??

 

I'm stressing out just thinking of this!!!  I's appreciate any suggestions!!!  Thanks!!!  All of you are amazing and everything looks great!!!

In the OOT bags I'm putting a nurse kit/hangover kit, jamaica themed trivia playing cards that I ordered from Kingston, beach towel, beach ball, puzzle book, key holder, door hangers, welcome book, possibly sarongs & bug candles, cups that I got on sale at Michael that say "eat, drink, and be married". For my guest book, I want to actually have squares of fabric that guests can write their "well wishes" on that I will later sew into a quilt
