The Mandy in Chandy

There are some great ideas and tutorials on youtube if you are interested!

I think the only thing you'd be missing out on is the petit fours

I agree that being bigger than an 8 year old is a good thing! Embrace your new curves!

I think the closer to the weekend you get the more likely the rates to hike. I hope it goes back down, or did you already book? If not, do what some of these girls suggested and see if you can predict when it'll go down again. Good luck and SORRY!

I know beaches and watery areas are infamous for no-see-ums in some areas and sand fleas. I got eaten up by them when I visited my destination last. They tend to come out more in the evening. Maybe you could give out Off wipes to the guests? Good luck! i hope you find the info you need!

We're here any time you need us. Now if you have any serious reservations because of something he's done bad, that is a different story in regards to your doubts. But as for cold feet, it's totally normal. I stressed about getting my venue for months, finally got it, then started thinking it was all wrong for me. Try to enjoy the fun things about planning so the stress doesn't become overwhelming!

make sure everyone drinks! just kidding! Are you going to have a DJ that can encourage them to dance?

I would get it dyed and ask your stylist if there is a color enhancer or temp color you could apply to it before the wedding yourself. I'd think it'd only get worse if you didn't color it now unless you just wait to get it all done before the ceremony good luck!

Welcome to BDW! You should be able to find lots of inspiration and ideas for your sister's wedding here. Good luck!

Have fun at your party! I'll do a little anti-rain dance for you Looking forward to seeing the pics!

I really want a fun wedding. I am trying to be different and not follow the traditional wedding style (which is still awesome, don't get me wrong) I just don't know if I can get my wedding party on board. If I do this I'll definitely post a video for you all!

Polaroid used to make a digital photo printer a while back and it printed on poloraid film, IDK if they still have them though. You just stick in the memory card and hit print. Might not be very practical though. I think the wipe board would be easier for everyone

I heard about this, too. I have always been paranoid about those things- I even get suspiscious of the fire sprinklers in hotel rooms! Twisted, I know- I doubt anyone wants to see ME walk around naked. The radio personality I listen to in the morning said she should be FLATTERED! What!? that is such a violation. I hope they find out and catch who did it, too

I looked to see if this was posted already and didn't see it, I hope it's ok to share! I wish I had the guts to do this- and I just might! The whole wedding party entrance is of the attendants dancing down the aisle. I love it! YouTube - Best Wedding Entrance Ever

It happened to me once yesterday but when I refreshed it let me in the thread. Try that and see if it helps!

Congrats Clare! I love your name and the spelling! So pretty! Best wishes and happy planning! BDW is a great resource- you should be able to find lots of inspiration here!

Welcome to BDW! There are SO many answers here already that are so helpful! If you need any help finding your way around, let me know! I'm fairly new myself but I'll help in any way I can.

Incredible pictures, beautiful bride, amazing photographer and yes, I cried, too! Thank you for sharing- those were a joy to see!

These look very professional! Are you for hire? I hope when I make mine they come out as good as these

Welcome to BDW- Vegas doesn't HAVE to be cheesy- I know you can find a great place that is classy and elegant, yet fun. Best of luck, congrats and

Well I WAS confident everything would be ok but FH brought it up again today. Our convo started like this: Chad says: before I ask, just tell me you will be honest Mandy says: I will 100% no matter what Chad says: ok number one... if I asked you to move to KY, would you? Mandy says: Yes Chad says: number two... if you moved to KY instead of us living here, would you be happy? Mandy says: I can't answer that. I would be happy to be with you but there are too many unknown factors involved. That's not to say I will be unhappy, I just don't know. And he finally told me the reasons he doesn't want to move here (because he wants to be around his parents while he can) and that we could make it somehow. It makes me so nervous. I guess all I can do is pray for the best.
