everything looks super cute... i might have to add a few of your ideas to my gifts great thinking giving them before you travel!

hhhhhhhhahahahahaha. i see the brides point too... wouldn't have addressing the invitations "and guest" and without the "and guest" have done it? or do people just ignore that part of their invite?

wow. i am IN LOVE with this dress! now to think of an occasion where i could wear it...lol!

wooo! i'm sad that summer is over but SO happy to have grey's back! (and private practice too-- next week). they both ended with such cliff hangers!

oh my gosh! i'm sorry you had to go through all of that, but it sounds like you were sweetly rewarded!

Thanks for posting!! These are so beautiful. We're getting married at the Tucan in January, & I am so excited. I've been working with Gabriela alot lately, & she really is great!

what a bummer... i know exactly how you feel. i too love babies, but not always the screaming. this reminds me of that episode of sex & the city... i'm going to go see if i can find the quote. well- i can't find it! did i make it up in my head? haha

ohmygosh! i LOVE that in pink... i don't think it'll look cheesy at all! i think it will be just perfect. plus, the shade of "dusty pink" that it is is very wedding appropriate, especially at disney i say go for it!

i vote for the maggie!! that's my favorite dress from her new collection!! it's awesome to see it on someone, and it is GORGEOUS on you!

Matthew McConaughey : fools gold

I Love Besties! Even more, I love that there is one word I can use when talking about all you lovelies!

Hey Angela, I'm planning on doing my own makeup too... and my colors are the same as yours! My plan is to go to a nice make-up counter (still trying to figure out which one!) and have them do my make-up for me one day. Maybe I'll find an inspiration photo, but mostly just tell them what I'm thinking & give them creative freedom. Then I'll buy the products they used and learn how to apply it like a pro. Like you I'm a little nervous about having someone do it for me on the big day.

sweeny todd : johnny depp (we're getting all the good guys listed today!)

julia roberts : oceans 11

ahh! ohmygosh! how frustrating. i'm not sure i could be nice when calling people who filled out rsvp cards like that

well, i'm having my first planning FREAK OUT moment! i requested updated prices for 2010 weddings at the tucan, and there was one tiny little change added from the last price list. old list: the bride & groom have to arrive 3 days before the ceremony newly added: (the ceremony day does not count) crap! we have already booked travel, paid the deposit, and our guests have known our ceremony date for about a YEAR now. (flying out on Wed, ceremony on Fri.) i wrote the wc a quick email asking if there was anything she could do. i really hope they can overlook this tiny little detail, especially since i booked our travel with the rule in mind. ETA: nevermind!! Gabriela emailed me and said "No Worries. We'll meet you the arriving day and It won't be any inconveniences" that's what i get for having a mini panic attack! whew! Thanks Gaby!!

here's mine: Belsoie L1069 in turquoise.

number 2. no question!
