Heidi

Hello and to the forum! I am also a ROR bride...let us know if you have any questions!

So great to hear from you Mo!!! I'm sure Chandlyn will make herself known soon enough! HAVE A GREAT TIME!!!!!

I was looking for a casual dress, so I shopped at a lot of bridesmaid dress stores. I went to 2 bridal stores: Harleysville Bridal & David's Bridal. Harleysville Bridal was nice. Small and nice people working there. I ended up getting mine at David's Bridal in Conshohocken.

I was thinking of doing the umbrella theme for the place cards and that is what I visualized. Yes, that's exactly it! Someone posted it once, a while time ago. I think it was a Martha Stewart idea... Here it is: Parasol Seating Cards and more inspiring wedding dresses, bouquets, cakes, favors, and advice on marthastewart.com

It's definitely unique... Personally though, I don't think I'd wear it.

This is fun! Alright, here's mine:

I know, that's what i keep saying, I either have 'o' or 'm'!!! Paula, he took your design with the om over the flower and it looked SO GREAT!!! Thanks so much for the design. Unfortunately, I really couldn't handle the pain for THAT long. Maybe someday I'll add the flower (I doubt it though! haha!) Saraha - I took this exerpt off of yogajournal.com: Om is a mantra, or vibration, that is traditionally chanted at the beginning and end of yoga sessions. It is said to be the sound of the universe. What does that mean? Somehow the ancient yogis knew what scientists today are telling us–that the entire universe is moving. Nothing is ever solid or still. Everything that exists pulsates, creating a rhythmic vibration that the ancient yogis acknowledged with the sound of Om. We may not always be aware of this sound in our daily lives, but we can hear it in the rustling of the autumn leaves, the waves on the shore, the inside of a seashell. Chanting Om allows us to recognize our experience as a reflection of how the whole universe moves–the setting sun, the rising moon, the ebb and flow of the tides, the beating of our hearts. As we chant Om, it takes us for a ride on this universal movement, through our breath, our awareness, and our physical energy, and we begin to sense a bigger connection that is both uplifting and soothing.

CONGRATS!!! YAY! So many great choices this month.

WOW! I guess safes aren't as reliable as we think they are

I think it's beautiful!!!

It took a little over an hour. I love it...but I don't love that I have to go back once it heals to get it done again! At least it's just a little part!

Ohmigosh! That was so freaking painful... OK, that totally SUCKED. I'm officially a complete wuss with a verrrrry low tolerance for pain. I backed out of the lotus flower & just went with the om. The artist had drawn up a beautiful design with the flower. I decided after he finished the om outline that I couldn't do both (it would've taken 2 and a half hours). So he 'erased' the flower part of the tattoo on my body and continued on with the om. I almost passed out twice (really, he used some smelling salts they use in boxing to revive people on me, twice). I seriously suck! So when he finished (after an hour) I didn't even really look at it, he just bandaged me up and on to the bar I went. WELL.... he missed 2 parts of the om since they were intertwined with the flower that he erased, so he had erased those parts... Here's my current tattoo (to be finished in 2 weeks): The om design I gave the artist: Now that the pain is over, I LOVE the tattoo! And I"m glad I didn't do the flower; I like just the om! I just want it to be a complete om!!! hehe! Honestly, I don't blame the tattoo artist - I backed out at the last possible minute for the flower (because as I said, WUSS!!!!!). Anyway...just wanted to fill ya in on the tattooing! (whoever tells you it doesn't hurt is LYING!!!!)

I'm also getting married at the Riu Ocho Rios, in April 08. THere are a TON of us on here, so let us know if you have any questions!
