@@tygrrlily what a great thread! thank you so much for sharing all of your planning details. I am getting married in March and am excited to get started on DIY projects, so these ideas are super helpful! Good luck planning and I can't wait to read your next posts

so creative! those are great

hi ladies, waiting for my dress to come in as well. i keep looking at the pics i took, so i know i like the style but i ordered a diff color (ivory) and i hope i still love the dress once it comes in. eeek!

It was really fun! I had my mom and 4 aunts with me. All the dresses fit or were too big so that was helpful since when I went to David's bridal I was unable to try on some of the dresses I liked since they didn't have them in my size. Wedding dresses run 2 sizes small so that was so annoying! I will say that a lot of the dresses at the Curvy bride were a similar cut, so not a ton of variety in silhouette, straps, etc. Something to keep in mind if you have a very specific dress idea. I thought I wanted straps, but ended up with a sweetheart neckline fit and flare/mermaid.

I did say yes to the dress! the maggie sottero ascher dress...i should have it by end of October/early November.

great idea! I love this for kid's OOT bags as well...maybe a version that is a bit easier to solve.

great ideas ladies! We are gong to do a wedding mailer with luggage tags as well just to keep the excitement up as we near the departure date. I was thinking of using vista print for the mailers, i know other brides have done this as well but i can't seem to find a sticky for layouts. Does anyone have anything?

gorgeous!

i love the sand idea...that is so fun! I want to steal it!

i love the go pro on the bottle of tequila! We are thinking of doing some sort of eye spy game during the reception.

I fell in love with this pic as well. We are definitely doing this as our "seating chart"
