Lesee Try Costco for the led lights!! I saw big packs of them on sale there not too long ago!

 

Also try Ardenes for the pashminas if no dice in China Town. They have them on 3 for $15 right now.

 

Oh Mocha I forgot about the hair colour. Like fully forgot as in didn't even make an appointment!!!  Now I am going to have to do it myself, which I usually do but now I have extensions to contend with! EEK! I can just picture some kind of disaster!!

Meggers - I was just going to tell Lesee the same things! And the pashminas might be even cheaper than that. I was going to check after work (because apparently I don't have enough stuff to bring)

 

I made my hair appointment way back in January. I don't even know what we are going to do, and I can't remember what time! Good luck with your color. As long as your extensions are real hair and staying dark it should be fine. Too bad Teira isn't here. She works in a salon so could probably help out.

 

Lesee - I am so jealous that you have time off.

Erin, our AHR is on the 16th!! Next Saturday!!!  Trying to get everything done and Im crunched for time! And to think we had originally had it booked for this weekend!

1. print and assemble menu cards

4. go to mac and get them to help me look like a victoria secret supermodel just in case the makeup artist isn't that great at the resort

5. make sure everyone who is saying a few words at the reception knows they are

6. paint the flower girls tops (still have to get the fabric paint)

7. a few more odds and ends for the boys OOT bags

8. get more LED tea lights....(any thoughts as to wear to get them in Canada ladies??? We got some at target but I won't be able to cross the border this weekend)

9. finish up the luminaries for our centerpieces

10. do a little shopping for me and the FI

 

I have mon, tues, wed off next week so I think this list is actually do-able!

Ella, If you don't get your sandals, you can make them SO easily.  I just made mine last night and they are so similar to many I've seen on etsy and cost me $2.50 from Old Navy plus I already had purchased ivory ribbon for my bouts.  Ribbon and a glue gun are all you need.  I'm going to get some turquoise swarovski crystals this weekend to place in the center of my bows though.  My something blue.  I'll post a picture after I attach the crystals.

Brandy, when is your AHR??

 

Tris, I'm so glad you received all of your paper stuff!  Oh, and moving next week... good luck girl!!

 

My weekend list....

 

I'm getting toether with my girls tomorrow night, it could be my bachelorette party, I'm not sure (again, they are surprising me)...

Find a glue gun and possible put together my name cards.

Do a little shopping for some additional clothes.

Make sure all of my OOT Bag stuff is purchased and ready to go!

Find out where the heck my sandals are that I ordered on etsy...if I can get the girl to ever respond.  (I should probably look for new sandals, why are my wedding shoes such an issue????????)

 

That's it for this weekend.  I have two more after this though...This weekend is basketball filled but locally, next weekend is basketball filled, but at the other end of the state so it's a weekend trip...that I'm not sure I'll be attending with FI and SS.

Erin, I believe greys had the same issue with her sandals from her, which is so strange bc she responded to be very quickly and she was extremely nice!! How long has it been since your ordered them?

[Ellabaja1983]

Brandy, I ordered a month ago, tomorrow.  I hadn't heard anything, so I sent her a message on 3/16, which she responded to on 3/17 saying she never saw my order because the message went to her spam mailbox.  On 3/1 (a Thursday) she said they would be sent out either Friday or Saturday, the 1st or 2nd.  I still have heard nothing.  I sent her a message on Wednesday, and I have heard nothing in response. 

 

 

Apparently I'm supposed to walk barefoot.... 

 

I can't remember who responded... mocha...greys... crap, I can't remember and it's on the other page...  well, the one who made their own, that's definitely something I could do because I have left over ribbon from the BMs bouquets...  it's just that I've paid $36 plus $11 for shipping....

[Brandy]

Thats crazy Erin!!!! I hope it all works out, I had mine within 2 weeks but she kept in touch with me letting me she was backed up and all but then she emailed me when they shipped and once they shipped I had them in 2 days.  Maybe shes been getting a lot of orders lately?

[Ellabaja1983]

Yea, maybe she is really busy, but that's why I emailed her three weeks ago inquiring on if she would have enough time to get them to me by the weeks of the 18th, at the latest.  She said she wouldn't have a problem.  I sent her another message today telling her that if she get them out to me, that I would just like to know... I mean, it's the least she could do... 

 

I had ordered a hanger at the same time from someone else, and I received that Wednesday....from Canada!  It made it through all of customs and what-not before something could come from someone in the US....
