June 2011 Brides

[erinbrooke124]

I bought my girls their shoes, earrings, beach coverup, clutch, and probably their hair to be done.  I always feel like I could get more, but I'm also running out of $!

 

Girls' Shoes

 

Girls' Earrings

 

I'm wearing a feather-flower fascinator -- no veil.  I didn't want to have something that might be blowing in every picture, although I think they look beautiful.

 

Here is my flower:

I also LOVE headband/tiara pieces.  I think they are stunning - almost wishing I had done one myself.

I have NO idea if I should buy the BMs their accessories...what are you girls all doing? I paid for their dresses...

On another note, today I tried on my veil and jewelry - just to get into the spirit

My Mom actually made the veil for me and that makes it EXTRA special to me. I saw one on etsy that I was gaga for, so she kinda cloned it. Here's a link to the etsy one : http://www.etsy.com/listing/68045726/double-layer-teardrop-veil-in-champagne

and here's a pic of me in mine :

 

Have you girls all got your jewelry and veils? Let's see those accessories!

here's my tiara

Very nice. Do you plan on wearing a veil as well?

 

No not going to wear a veil

Erin i am loving the shoes, earrings and your flower.. so pretty )

I'm definitely doing a hair flower instead of a veil... At first I wanted a cathedral veil but when I tried it on with my dress & the way I want my hair styled, it seemed better to go with the flower.  I already have all my jewelry, which is pretty simple because my dress has lots of swarovski crystals.  I;m almost ready, I still have a ton to do! I only have 45 days left!

I am going with a flower too because I don't want to fight with a veil and the wind.

Hey Adales!  Do you think that Target would have them online?  I've been looking forever!!  What color did you get?

I finally bought the bags for my OOT bags and I absolutely love them!  They are straw with a colored liner and I got them at Target for $2.50 each, they were in the bins that are in the front of the store.  We are in the process of finishing our survival kits.

 

Also our shot glasses came from discount mugs and I am so happy with how they turned out.

You look just gorgeous! Wow, you're really spoiling your girls too. I got each of my girls a nice cocktail ring, travel sized flowerbomb perfume (mmmm), cute little sewing kits (just in case) I forked out quite a bit for the rings, but i just thought they were so cute and something that could remind them of the wedding for years to come. I'm still tempted to do more for them. I feel like I want to give them the BIGGEST thank yous, but my wallet is disagreeing at this point. LOL

Awww..thank you!  I was just telling my man the same thing!  I feel like I've bought a lot, and want to buy more for the girls, but my wallet also disagrees.  And, I just put it all together tonight and it doesn't look like much.  Oh well!  I'm out of money!

 

@aeluzu - I love the cocktail ring idea!  Those will look so cute and are totally reusable/memorable.

 

We're getting ready to order parent gifts (photobooks of fiance and I through the years with e-pics), but that stuff adds up as well!

I ALWAYS find deals for free photobooks!   If you have some more time to wait, and you want to try and save money, I would definitely try to hold off!  I can let you know when I hear of any deals too if you want?  I have a lot of the good couponing sites on my facebook, and I always see when they have deals.

 

I made our guestbook for free and just paid shipping, and it looks amazing -- picture wrapped cover and all!  I used Picaboo and loved what they had to offer.  If you do really want to use them now, I have a save 25% off 11 X 14 or 12 X 12 classic custom photobooks code -- BIG25 -- that is good until April 30.  I'm sure I'll get more deals.
