Congrats to all the ladies that celebrated their weddings since my last post!! I have been so busy moving this past week from NC to TX. Then on top of that we had our engagement party in Atlanta!  Now im freaking out...I only have 9 months to get this together!!!!

I want a veil....sooo badly...but it's so windy there.  Recently I saw pics of a Dreams bride who tucked her veil into her dress for the ceremony...opinions?

[carolina24]

i have a veil cause i figure when else can you do it?? and ive always wanted a veil regardless.  when i went for my site visit, cecilia told me that she has pinned the veil onto bride's dresses and it works out.  i say go for it!!

[chipotle99]

i wore a veil, and we did the twist and tuck for the ceremony - it worked ot just fine, and it was easy to untuck and let it blow in the breeze immediately after, it wasnt uncontrolably windy on our day at the gazebo either.

 

veils are sometimes very delicate, and i would worry about a pin putting a hole in it! especially if you have to wear it again at your AHR like i have to .....

Carolina!!!  I am so excited for you.  It's already almost time for your wedding?!?!  Time flies doesn't it?  I can't wait to hear all about it and see pictures.  You are going to be such a gorgeous bride. 

 

I am so torn on the veil idea now.  I never, I repeat, never wanted a veil.  I could never justify spending so much money for a simple piece of mesh or tulle.  Besides, I thought it hid the train.  Now, after seeing a few different kinds, and now that my wedding is approaching, the thought keeps looming around that I will only get this one chance.  And now I feel like I might want one.  Ahhhh, i just want to save money and I keep finding more things I want to spend.  There is this gorgeous lace edged cathedral length veil with one of the newer Sottero & Midgley gowns. 

 

Anywho, I just noticed that dreams updated their photo gallery, and there are some new pics of the gazebo.  One is a view of then gazebo from the new terrace.  Very nice!  

 

Back to student teaching and no life  HAHA!

thanks so much chris; i cant' believe it either!!!  four weeks from today i will be getting married, i'm getting so nervous and everytime i think about walking down the aisle i cry, lol!!!

 

as for the veil, once again i say go for it!! but i personally wouldn't do a cathedral length cause it wouldn't go with my dress...but i have seen some gorgeous pics with those veils

1. Veil: I also started not even wanting a veil, now I'm going crazy for the birdcage veils, then I wanted cathedral, now I want fingertip.  How to choose???  I'm not trying to spend more $$$ either, checking out recycledbride.com, some good deals there!

 

2.  Omgosh you guys, 4weeks??? That's nothing!!! I'm sooo excited for you!!!! Please take lots of pics and share with us!

 

3.  Thanks for the heads up on the new pics Chris...umm...what's up with the gazebo pic (5th pic from left top row).  That looks AMAZING...and yet I've never even seen those chairs used EVER on a wedding!  Soooo photoshopped.  Would it be too much to ask for them to REALLY make it look like that? Gorgeous!

Hi everyone. This is a little off topic but I need some help. I really want to wear high heels with my wedding dress and for the ceremony thats fine, but I am wondering what to do when taking pictures in the sand and by the lighthouse on the rocks...I don't want to kill myself trying to walk. I would prefer to not wear flip flops but maybe should to be practical. Whats everyone else doing?
