My mom is giving us a AHR, not sure if I should include the Gift Registry info on the invite. See below. I do not like all the store inserts stuff with the invites. Since guest are asking, is it ok to add on the ahr invite? The celebration continues with a Wedding Reception for xx & xx August 3, 2008 3:00pm-6:00pm Location name Address City and State Given By xx RSVP By July 27 Gift Registry Macy's, Target & Z Gallerie,

My FI have the same issue, I contacted Hive Salon via email. I have not heard from them.

That is wonderful song and great CD!!!

the dress is ML - Monique Lhuillier

Great review!!!

I am thinking of playing some games to get our guests more into the party mood and mingle a bit more with eachother. We're having a beach/tropical/Jamaica theme so it would be really great if I could think of a game to incorporate the theme, I am thinking something involving Bob Marley songs, or maybe making someone wear a rastafarian hat.... any ideas? We are playing the newlywed game , we have other couples to play with use

Well I bought a dress that had the lace I was looking for, but it was strapless. The dress I vison was a deep v-neck front and back. The lady did all the changes but not to the front. I need the dress to be cut more in the front to create the v-neck. To me the dress is a sweatheart neckline. But to sum it up, the dress is not giving me the wow feeling.

It is common to buy a 2nd dress? I am not happy with my dress, just thinking I should have a back-up dress

Going through the Hilton will cost you your first born child. I will candels around the table, who is your dj

Hilton brides, for those who used the whale watching did you need lights to keep the are lit?

Anyone heard of these? I thought about doing these, and leaving them on the chairs for the ceremony. Whatcha think? I am doing this for my guest. I got the idea from the THE KNOT DW book

You already have the pattern which is the hard part. 1. locate a bridal salon , that do CUSTOM -MADE alterations. 2. show them a pic of the JH DRESS, they could re-make the dress 3. I would change the lace of the dress to what you like, BUT keep the under-lay of the dress as the pattern of the dress, that will help whoever does the alterations. 4.Search for a sash , a color you like Then you should be good to go I think that will help you. Good Luck!!

that is too cute!!! That was fun to watch

A couple of weeks , I posted a thread about doing away with the wedding party. I am happy to report , all is good they are coming!! With all the issues with the attire and travel $$, I told them to use thier better judgment if they decide to attend w/o giving me back talk.

Becks is right, let your FI deal with his mom. I had the same issue, my fmil is not coming but want to invite her friends. I thought that was crazy.

I am using Calla Lillies
