I have not ordered any of them until tonight, I too have to talk to hubby about it, I keep using his credit card so I better mention something..haha..I will let you know... I do tend to like the one on its own (big pin that's $30) Rhinestone Starfish Brooch It would look so cute on my dress... Ahhh decisions, decisions...

Quote: Originally Posted by Julesr Trista, is that not the one I told you had shipping for $4.95 to Canada? Look back in the posts and see if it is. no I know, I did not order this one either but wanted to let you know that they do ship to Canada, that's all~ LOL

Quote: Originally Posted by Julesr I would order it if I was you, just in case the other one does not come. And, I thought you wanted a pin no? These are pins so you don't have to do anything to them. Up to you though. Let me know how it works out and what it looks like. I am thinking I might want one for myself. I just sent them an email to ask for shipping amount and how long it would take..Thanks I will keep you posted and YES I did want a pin, I bought a bouquet jewel yesterday that I planned on converting into a pin, but if this one arrives on time, I will use the starfish one I bought yesterday in my bouquet.. Have you ordered one yet?

I was a 3-dress bride, first one, I orderd on ebay and once delivered looked terrible on me so sold it within a week, then I saw this beautiful dress no longer available in any store (a chiffon dress that almost looked linen like) so I searched and searched all over, including the stores that had previously carried the line and no luck..I gave up after few months of looking EVERYWHERE, so then ordered my second destination looking dress from Netbride, its a Mon Cherie dress that is beautiful, but once it arrived, it did not suit me as I had hoped.... I still had the previous dress on my mind..so I secretly kept looking for it, well after searching and searching, I contacted the designer directly and for fun, asked them if they could re-make the dress for me in my size..To my surprise, they made the dress in my measurements and 9 weeks later, it was sent to me.. So I still do have my Mon Cherie dress I will post for sale, and in the end, I am using the third dress for destination wedding.. A word of advice, try to get out and try the dress on first before ordering it from Ebay or somewhere else, its funny what we like, may look terrible on us and we may just be surprised at other dresses we aren't necessarily attracted to, could be the one Sorry for the long winded story~

Congrats and Enjoy~

Happy, Happy Birthday

I agree, very weird lady and not all there but like you said, I just wanted to place my order..Funny she told me she sold her last clear one yesterday, anyway, I sent her at least 6 emails asking the same thing...HOW LONG FOR SHIPPING TO ME and she kept answering other questions but that one and that was my concern.. I hope you get yours before you leave, it was a very nice starfish, some of them are ugly and have a bad shape so I hope you do..You have been so kind in providing contact information, thanks so much..

Congrats you look so happy..

Shelley, ah thanks, u too...Can't wait to see "your stuff" post before you leave, with all your creativity, it will be awesome... I tried to put little touches here and there, but its just the two of us, so no need for lots of stuff for guests so I made sure the "little" things would show in pictures..

Quote: Originally Posted by beachbride oh no Trista, I think you took that title, with all your diy's!! lol!! Naw, you beat me by far in that department, I so appreciate all the DIY posts you have made..U help so many girls and we all appreciate it so much~

Quote: Originally Posted by Shelley By the way how much was shipping? I only got charged $8.50 from the Simply Flowers store. Hopefully there won't be customs Funny she quoted me $8.50 and I reminded her that shipping was into Canada and she quickly changed the amount to $9.49 which is reasonable to me.. Oh my gosh I hope mine does not take too long, she had no clear in stock and told me she would order one and then ship it straight to me, and I should have it in my hands within 3 weeks and that unless it gets stuck at customs (which she cannot control) then I should have it within 3 weeks? Please let me know when you receive it, she was a little uhm, "airy" so I worry a bit but hopefully I am wrong~

Very Cute, might also be great to keep as a keepsake after the wedding or raffle them off as a game at the reception as you don't want to be left with 15 of them...LOL...

I used the same one as Tammy but I will be changing my ribbon soon, I do not like the tone of the teal, I want it more aqua http://i163.photobucket.com/albums/t...RingHolder.jpg

Quote: Originally Posted by Shelley Trista - was it the simply flowers you ordered from? If so, that's where I ordered my second one from that I haven't received. And don't stress, I'll be back a couple weeks before you leave so you can always use one of mine - as a bonus they're both clear I ordered my starfish from where Shelley recommended but the shipping was a bit more: Welcome to Simply Flowers Your Fresno Wedding Flowers Resource Ahhhh that is so sweet, now I don't have to worry so much...pls keep me posted as to whether or not you received it okay..

Quote: Originally Posted by foxytv Where did you get your flowers? I am having a hard time finding nice looking silk ones, but yours ROCK!! Which ones? the off white ones or the bright coral ones? The coral ones I got at Michales and the off white ones, I found at a local silk flower store.. I agree, I had a hard time choosing something silk as most silk looked fake and I wanted something more realistic looking..Hope that helps??

Beautiful, congrats, who made your dress if you don't mind me asking? You looked great~

Welcome and once again, Sol did a fantastic job on your pics, Congrats to both of you, thanks for sharing~

They are all fantastic...Congrats~
