yeah it is a nice poem. I get all goose bumpy when I read it.

anyone have photos or ideas? I am not doing a beach theme and would love to see your ideas...please?

Looks you have it all under control. Now you can just enjoy it all.

How did you find that? That is totally it!! Thanks a lot for doing the search. I had no luck. Now I KNOW I made the right choice looking at the back

Get out!!!!

Oh I am very sorry to hear that.

We are in the same boat! Never be ashamed of being thrifty...unless you re-use plastic food bags

I have not dresses up in a few years so I just bugged Brandy! Here she is:

Why do boys get to pee standing up and I have to pray I don't get someone's funk on my butt?

Looks great!

Thanks a lot ladies, I will check them out and pracite some myself. I have almost 7 months.

If you can find one I will be impressed. It is Jasmine Bridal 725. I have had no luck. The bottom is very basic in that it bells out nicely.

Welcome! You really are in the right place for help!

Oh shoot--sorry you feel stressed. I guess you have to decide what is important to you and try not to regret what you are doing for your wedding. Make a list of the pros and cons to having your wedding on the beach and make sure you choose what makes you happy. You are Never going to please everyone so why not make you and your FI happy?

Me again, I am making up for lost time as I am now in school during the day and can't chat while sitting at my desk. Anyway. I saw a photo of Alex Borstein in my new Style magazine and I love her hair. Here is the photo I have always loved 40's and 50's hair so I would love some help find better photos. I do not want my hair all the way up I want it at the nape of my neck. HELP ME! I need better photos.

I agree spending the money on the dress you want is way more important. Hey since the other dress was pretty cheap, you should keep it and do a TTD session in Tahoe, there are some really beautiful meadows and the snow will still be on the mountain tops. I will have to think of some cool places for you. We actually have talked about doing something like this but I am going to try and return the dress ( it was still $200 that we could use on our candy buffet) if they won't take it back then that is a strong possibility. I may also try to find a pretty cheap dress ( around $50) to do something like that. Maybe at a second-hand store. I have always loved my shoulders--one of the few body parts I adore so I was happy to find a dress to compliment them. The train isn't too long so I won't have to worry about dragging it on the rocks.

Welcome! Tons of help here!

Ha- yes you do really have to wait and so do I. I was by myself so my MOH won't see it until then either. The bottom is very basic with some itchy layers to it. The thing that sucks is that I have to have extra length added wich means another $140 but the dress was too amzing to skip. We joked about not getting it even though it hits me at the ankles.

It is hiding in the closet where dress number one was and he knows to not go in there. I should totally put my face over hers...she is a little less curvey than I.

I am in. I did really well for a while but it's sneaking back.

After a great deal of thinking about it I decide I disliked the dress I purchased more than I like it. I had been telling myself all along that I wanted a very simple dress but now realize I was trying to save us money which was causing me to not like the dresses in my range. So talked to my FI and he said he would be more upset knowing I was unhappy about my dress and had a bad memory about our wedding than if I spent more money. Awwwh! So I am returning dress nummber 1 and I went out ALONE today and had a great time trying on dresses. I went to a wonderful place and got great help. Turns out the dress I wanted was discontinued so I can't show you a picture other than the one of the sign I took from the shop. They said since they were discontinuing the dress I could have the sign--tee hee. I now have an 18x20 of some skinny chick in my dress. I LOVE my dress and am very happy. The lace goes around to the back and covers the back. That mean no bra for me. It is ivory and shows off my shoulders Won't have it until February so you HAVE to wait for photos.

Wow I had no clue you were still waiting for them. Seems like someone had over booked himself and trying to do too much at once. HIRE ANOTHER ASSISTANT!

I am sorry to hear you are upset. I hope you guys can figure out how to make your dream of motherhood a possiblity.

Odd man out--I love the first one. See everyone differs on these things so you have to go with your heart.
