That is too funny Nat....

 

My FI doesn't care what we wear he just wants to get to the wedding and have fun..... I picked out everything everyone will wear he didn't even help a lil bit lol...

[rdhbride]

lol you girls are funny. i had to "trick" my soon to be hubby into thinking his and gm's outfits were all his idea:) made him try everything on lol and he was so pissed :)but made him make a decision on what i liked, he didn't even realize because he was mad i made him try stuff on. worked out to my benefit!!!

You ladies are such wonderfully organized planners! Most of you have wedding dates later than mine and are soooo much further ahead in the planning process than I. I just bought my dress on the weekend, off the rack (and thank goodness for that... Most places were saying it would take 4-6 months to get the dress in, let alone alterations, and since my wedding is 6 months away as of today, it was getting to be crunch time!). We haven't really decided on the guys' outfits yet. Seems like everyone is pretty well going with linen for the men, eh? Any ideas where I can find some good deals on the guys' outfits in Canada?

Man, I just noticed that I actually wrote "eh" in my last post. Noting that many of you are not from Canada, I'm sure that's just asking for trouble! LOL

I had to read your thread twice to notice it...I guess being a fellow canuck it just comes so naturally that we're not even aware of it anymore! lol no worries! I think most Americans just find it amusing like we find many of their contractures to be

Erin, did I send you the wording? I can't remember as I was away up north all weekend...let me know and I will send it to you

Erin black, white & pink are our colours too!! Guys will be wearing black pants, white short sleeve shirts. BMs will have black cocktail dresses, flower girls white/pink dresses (haven't decided that one). My dress is ivory too, and I'm going to have a hot pink bouquet... haven't fully decided on what the BM flowers will look like... bought some, but not sure what Im going to do yet.
I find it difficult to co-ordinate right now! Maybe just b/c I'm tired.

hey Tara!

 

My FI bought his linen suit at Le Chateau at the end of August, since their summer stuff is all on sale... normally I think their suit coordinates are like... $180 for the jacket and $90 for the pants, but they were both like half price!! If you don't want to buy from the internet, that would be a good place to start.... not sure if they would STILL have that, but another thing to check (if you have it where you live) is a Le Chateau Outlet, since they almost always have that stuff! Good luck

thanks for asking tam! you didn't, but i'm having pastor york do my wedding so i don't need the wording. thanks for the offer though!

for you married girls (ssnm and lp) can you tell us how the day of the wedding was coordinated? did the WC get your guests to the site and get everyone in place or how did that work? i want to make sure everything goes smoothly on the day of and i haven't ever heard a complaint about this from the resort so it seems like they do it well. i was just curious exactly how it was all orchestrated!
