  1. Not sure if it would help anyone out at all needing cheap bridesmaid dresses, but you can get former sample bridesmaids dresses for $15 at www.heartstringsbridal.com.  It would be good for people needing just one bridesmaid dress, a party dress, or is wanting their bridesmaids to wear different styles.  Just thought I would pass along the info if it could help out some people on a budget or looking for a deal.

  2. I am selling a chiffon wedding gown that was bought as a sample.  It has never been worn or altered.  It is in ivory size 10, and is a very light and flowly chiffon gown.

    Description of the Gown:This chiffon wedding gown has a smooth bodice surrounded by delicate pleating at the sides of the empire, that in turn is encased by a two inch band of intricate beading and embroidery in a heart and floral pattern. The slim A line skirt is of accordion pleating.

    Free shipping in the US, actual shipping outside of the US.

  3. For sale: Softly curved strapless silk chiffon ethereal A-line couture bridal gown, ruched bodice extends into center front draping, dipped back bodice, silk charmeuse midriff at Empire waistline accented with Swarovski crystals, and a chapel length train.

  8. I just got back from getting married in Cancun and had my wedding at the Cancun Palace and it was fabulous!  The party did end at 10pm because it was on a terrace, but you could always move your "after party" to one of the clubs down the road for more partying.  Most of my guests were tired after 4 straight hours of dancing and then a few hit up the hotel bar afterwards.  With that many people staying at the same resort I did, you would qualify for free private events (meaning free rehearsal dinner, free reception etc) and you would get a 7 night stay for free too. 

     

    I hope you find something that works for you and I would be happy to give you more details if you were looking at other options :-)  good luck!

  10. Thank you to the site for all of the great ideas and inspiration that this has given me for the wedding.  There a lot of VERY talented people sharing ideas and helping brides all over the world make their weddings special.  I am about a week out from boarding the plane and thought I would start my planning journal and start to give back some of the ideas I have used as well as will add more to the journal later and post a review after we come back :-)

     

    Our Story

     

    JD and I met through mutual friends (my college, his high school) and we had known the same people for years, but  had never met before.  We ended up meeting at a birthday party for one of our mutual friends and instantly had a connection.  There was just something about him that I had to know more and he was very giving and loving from the moment I met him.  We went on a few dates and became exclusive and our friends joked that we already acted like we were married and were inseperable.  We moved in together after a few months and started to share our lives together in a whole new way.  Its the best feeling in the world to come home to your best friend and I knew I wanted to be with him forever.

     

    We ended up taking a trip to Las Vegas and then driving to Utah and visiting Zion National Park.  We were horseback riding and hiking in the mountains when he proposed and it was a really special day.  We actually had to stand on a higher mountain top to get enough reception to call our family and friends to tell them we were engaged! 

     

    Our wedding will be at the Cancun Palace and we are really excited to have it there since its all inclusive and our guests wont have to worry about anything as well as a lot of our guests have never been out of the country so its going to be an adventure!

    Fiance Ring

     

    My fiance wanted a ring that was more "manly" so its titanium with a simple small diamond in the middle.

    Wedding Dress

     

    My wedding dress is a Liz Fields dress and is definately not beach friendly but I didnt care, it has a lot of personality and I think its really fun and has a really sparkly belt on it so I am sticking with it.

    Trash the Dress

    I picked up this dress after I realized I would probably would sink if I went in the water with my wedding dres on so I decided on a typical destination dress in chiffon.  I am doing a really fun TTD session with our photographer we are flying down there so we are going to do a couple of different looks which I am excited about! Its Sophia Tolli and in all white.

  11. The company wedding gown preservation will do gown cleaning without the preservation and can do cleaning and minor repairs you just write on the packing slip clean only...we sell the kits my wedding store for $149 and that includes the preservation and cleaning...I certainly wouldnt pay more than that to do just the cleaning locally.  The only bad thing about using the kit is that you would use the kit to ship the gown to them and they ship it back(UPS) versus dropping it off and picking up locally.  Hopefully this information helps you price out your options better!

  12. Its understandable that you want a lot of people to share in your big day.  Are you having a welcome home party after your wedding sometime?  We are fortunate to have around 45 people coming to our wedding but there was a TON of the people who couldnt financially or take time off of work, so we are going to have our wedding ceremony video taped and play it at our welcome home reception in the summer.  It will be BBQ style and low key but a time to share the moment again with people who couldnt make the trip.  Just an idea if you are on a budget and still want to share your moment. 

     

    Focus on the people that are there and are able to make it, and you will have a blast!!
