Amarillis

We got a lot of laughs out of it... that is for sure... This year FI wants to be the listerine character... you know the one with the lampshade on his head... he wants me to be the toothbrush

When I did my BD Shoot (which I won) - I brought WAY too much... #1. Vamp : a black feather bra, blackfeather skirted garter, black thigh high nylons, black boa, stilettos #2. Jungle: leopard print bustier, leopard boy shorts, chocolate brown faux fur stole - possibly knee high brown suede boots #3. Canadian Girl : white cotton bra, and two different pair of boy shorts - one pair is red with a Canadian Flag across the bottom, and the other is red with the words "Canadian Girl, Accept NO Substitute" across the bottom. #4. Cuban Guyabera: I have my FI's wedding shirt (a Cuban Guyabera) and his favourite straw hat from Cuba The first four I am really keen on... but then I went through my own tickle trunk... and found #5. Teddies in Colour : - A lime green, bright orange, and a hot pink teddy #6. Basic Black Lace Bustier: I have a simple basic black lace bustier with matching bottoms #7. Camo: I also have a **very sheer** camo teddy - which I am nervous about in photos, as it may be too risque. I also have 2 other outfits - with props that I'd like to add to my boudoir book, but I will have to ask that they are not used in any advertising - because they are a little too tied to my FI and I - being that the photos would bear his (our) last name. #8. AAA Hockey: My FMIL recently brought over some of my FI's stuff from her house. Included was his old AAA Leather hockey jacket - bearing his last name on the sleeve, I thought this could be cute with a simple undergarments. #9. 'retail' Service: My FI owns a 'retail store', and I happen to have a tiny tee that was produced mistakenly by the printing company. I picked up a pair of white boy shorts to match the back of it reads 'retailstore' - SERVICE' - I'll also tote a ton of other 'retail' paraphenalia for effect. It was just a lot of stuff... but they turned out great... Amy's Boudoir Session

Welcome to the forum!!!! You'll find tons of great info here!

I made this costume for Chad and I last year! It was a wicked hit at the party we went to.... FSIL asked to borrow it for this year. I was gonna order it from a website, but did a DIY... the entire getup cost a mere $25.

AWWW that is so cute! I'd say nix on the wings... the wings are a little too costume-y.... But the inspiration pics are too cute!

I missed that detail when discussing our rings… our rings are going to say `Cuba 01.28.2009` Quote: Originally Posted by robinbood Hi Everybody! I had my surprise wedding shower this past Saturday . It was so sweet- my BMs and mom and FI planned it and created this ruse to get me out of the house. They decorated the place with tropical flowers, beach stuff, etc. and had everyone wear vacation/beach clothes. It was a lot of fun and I was very touched. I'll post a couple pics if i can figure out how! I have a question about invitations: What rsvp date is everyone giving? I sent out SODs back in July, and will send a reminder email to book rooms Oct. 1 (the rate is only guaranteed until Oct. 15), so I was viewing the invites as a formality, which we'll be sending out Nov. 1, and was planning on putting December 15 for the rsvp date for my Jan 25 wedding. But I'm thinking maybe I should put December 1, just so I know by then, in case there are any stragglers. The woman at the stationery store is against it (I guess from a strict etiquette standpoint, it's not proper, but I think with a destination wedding, etiquette is more flexible). What do you think? Thanks!!! YAY for bridal showers! Please Please Please post pics!!!! Just get a photo bucket account! I`ll find the instructions… http://bestdestinationwedding.com/forum/t16832 As for your RSVP - I agree with kate.com – October first is fine. Especially if you can`t hold the room rate past Oct. 15.

I'm sending out the invites within the next 3 weeks MINI VACAY!!! – Spoiled!!!!!! YAY for your dress being in… I have scheduled my first fitting for November 10th! YAY Quote: Originally Posted by nicoleandscott fiance finally booked our legal day!! wooohooo!! (see new ticker...!) it's december 30, which is the day before we leave for cabo. i'm SO excited! OMG = So Fun!!! Yay! SeaPrincess: bridal shower YIPPEE!!!! That is awesome! Please be sure to post pics after the weekend!!!! As for me - I have been delving full force into writing thank you cards from my shower... I am running out of time, being that my mother has imposed a rule that they all must be out within a month of the event.... So far I have written 86 ..... 86 i figure I have about 20 to go.... This weekend FI and I leave for a week of golf in the Muskoka's (a region in Ontario) I am SO looking forward to it... YAY... big hugs to all...

According to my mother, my Nona (grandmother) said.... "a bride isn't a bride without a veil" That is the main reason I'm wearing one.... Plus a veil really makes you feel like a bride. My best advice, when you go to pick up your dress... try on a few... in the end it's your choice... ... ps... your dress is gorgeous!

that is so cute! thanks for pointing me in her direction, I'll be sharing this idea with FI!!!!

OMG Amy... you are SO blessed to have such wonderful family to add to your gorgeous professional pictures! Congratulations.
