  1. I couldn't help but laugh at someone who forgets their sunglasses for a week long vacation in the sun but thats just me!!!!!!
  2. You have to really be sure to get REAL real touch flowers, silks and other "faux" flowers are just not the same! I have posted my centrepiece but not on the centre piece thread, prolly one of the canadian threads. I wanted height so I have opted for 8" hurricane vases that will be filled with sand and shells on the top and in them will be 3.5ft grasses like reeds thats I picked up. Sounds really strange but I really like the look of it, its very natural and different from traditional flowers or candles. We are having one long table so height in the centrepiece was important to me while still allowing people to talk around it!
  3. It's a SERIOUS issue lol and all the GM are hockey players too so it simply will NOT work!!!! The le chateau ones are just too small!!!! I opted for Old Navy linen pants as they were on sale for like $15. I haven't received them yet but we will see how they fit once they arrive!!!! I was nervous to order anything expensive online because if we can't return it and it doesnt fit were stuck... its hard to request "extra thigh" space lol
  4. I need these coupons!!!!!!! I don't think you can delete old posts but perhaps we could post expiry dates in the posts! That may help!!!!!
  5. Haven't tried to complete my order yet but will let you know!! They do have emergen-c at Superstore/loblaws! I was there yesterday and it is in the health food section!
  6. I told you it sounds crazy lol but I had 2 different people msg me for templates asking for almost everything in a list form and they had NO POSTS!!!!! It weirded me out a bit and so I just ignored it.... I think there are a couple brides still waiting for templates from me but I can't remember who I did and didn't send to!!
  7. Not to worry!!! I knew what you meant!!! I started to think Calla Lillies were over done (which is probably true) but I still love them and it is what I pictured so I think I am just going to go for it! Everyone knows what is right for them and thats what is important!
  8. Best deal I have seen and free shipping to CANADA on orders over $25 (I think it is!) http://international.drugstore.com:80/advil-advil-vial-3pk/qxp191585?fromsrch=advil
  9. I always check what they have posted!!!!! It sounds crazy but sometimes I am scared it is just people who are going to sell my template or something.... I thought they were $20 for 12..... how did you get such a good deal!?! I watched these ones for awhile and never saw them cheaper than the $20 which I still thought was a good deal! Originally Posted by canadiangirl I got the ones on oriental trading, although these are not them lol this will give you an idea of them lol (i got the white bags with black handles) which will work with the new theme...although i got them before the colour change lol worked out perfect!!!! if i do say so myself http://www.orientaltrading.com/color-accent-tote-bags-royal-blue-a2-14_459+RB.fltr?prodCatId=388632&categoryFromSearch=true&tabId=1&Ne=90000&rd=tote%20bags If you try davids bridal they have some great reception dresses (white) and great prices....as for buying online, i got my TTD and welcome dress from there...and they came in just as they looked on line (well as so im told, as i still havent seen them yet lol) OMG this is gorgeous!!!!! My mom actually suggested a reception dress the other week but I really don't want to change out of my dress!!!!!!! Now that I see this one I am kind of rethinknig it... how gorgeous!!!
  10. Yup!!!!!! Doesn't matter what size they are all sheets of 6 that are PERFECT!!!! Check out my OOT thread for a picture of mine! Wet Ones are 24 for $1 still such a great deal!!!! I have been contemplating these too!!!! I totally need OOT intervention!!!! I actually OPENED my finished Wedding Week Survival Kits to ADD stuff.... ohhhh he wants to kill me!!! LOL
  11. I so agree!!! I am so in love with walking in to Train Marry Me I don't care what anyone thinks!!!! It makes me happy and that's what matters!!!!! I am sure it'll make FI happy too lol
  12. I have used a disposable underwater camera on previous trips and they are great!
  13. I bought the packs of pepto chewable they come in blister packed sheets of 6 and then I put two in a mini craft zipper bag and created my own bag topper. Another option is they come in 12 packs same way (I bought 48 packs). I first bought the 12 packs but then the 48s were cheaper they come in a box so you could do an individual of the 12 packs each. Here is a link to give you a better idea of what I am talking about http://international.drugstore.com:80/pepto-bismol-chewable-tablets-original/qxp10730?fromsrch=pepto+chewable
  14. Leigh which OT bags did you get?! Just noticed you got 12 for $6! Unreal deal!!!! I know you probably shared with me before but I swear I have NO memory these days!
  15. There's a variety of sizes you can get. Check them out online and you'll get a better idea of dimensions.
  16. Congratulations and welcome to the forum, everyone has already provided you with some GREAT advice. I don't think a spring wedding is too ambitious but you know your guests better than anyone. We told everyone almost as soon as we got engaged so that they could keep the idea in the back of their heads. I think the sooner you give your guests your date and a pricing idea the better as it allows them to save, book holidays and prepare. That being said you have to tackle the MOST difficult part of the planning... choosing your destination and resort. Once that is out of the way get your save the dates (or invites we by passed save the dates and just did invites) out ASAP so that people can prepare. Also the sooner you get them out the sooner you'll get your answers and a better idea of how many people you can expect! Keep us posted on your decision!!!!!!
  17. Amazing find!!!! I will have to check out what other scores I can get on that site!!!!!
  18. I think you have made some GREAT changes!!!!! I went through probably 30+ monograms before I finally LOVED one I did so I totally feel your pain!!!! I think your final one looks great and everything is well balanced!!! GREAT work!!!! Have you showed FI yet?!
  19. Celtic Girl - I have been getting a TON of PMs from other users asking me to send them templates. I understand where they are coming from but I am getting a little sick of logging on every time with 3 or 4 PMs for my templates! That being said I also HATE the "filler" messages that clog up all the threads with users just trying to reach their 150. The "nice" "Like it" "good job" are just SO ANNOYING. I think it is important to contribute effectively to the forums! I think paying the $30 is fair if you respect the forum and the value it has! In the end it is your choice, to be honest I have let some of the msgs in my inbox sit there as I don't have the patience anymore to spend 15 minutes emailing people when I just want to catch up on some of the threads!!! A little bit of a vent but I feel your pain!
  20. Unfortunately this is a pretty old thread and I don't think Ardenes has them anymore.... I haven't been able to find them! Sorry ladies
  21. Even once your bags are sealed and done you STILL find things to add!!!! I am awful about it. All the survival kits were staples shut and I opened them all!!!!!!!! Oh well, I am so excited to give the OOTs to our guests I can hardly contain myself!!! MJKH - let me know what templates you are looking for. Nothing drives me more crazy than the "very nice" "cool" "looks good" comments that clog up the other threads!!!! It is a fair suggestion Jackie but can be REALLY annoying!!! The point is to provide useful information to help one another in this process. Getting updates for threads that are really just "noobs" trying to reach junior status is sooooo frustrating!! Don't mean to be mean about it, we've all been there trying to reach our 150 but you are better to follow threads like this one that promote discussion and really be an active member as you have been on here so far!!! I really appreciate everything you have shared and I am sure other brides would appreciate it too!!!!
  22. Thanks soooo much!!!! The first is a "composite flower" they take one flower (usually a rose - not in the picture though) and then take apart others of the same flower and individually wire them together. I love it but I don't think it would work so well with real touch flowers....... I may stick with my calla lillies now that I have decided on centrepieces (not using our bouquets as originally planned) Thanks for the input with regards to the dress!!! It means a lot you remember and will be honest that is exactly what I need. My dress is not sleek and simple so a sleek and simple flower would prolly be best. The peonies look as ruffly as the dress lol Thanks
