May 2009 Brides

[Kristy!]

I'm now officially under 3 months. Crazy! I can't believe all the stuff that has to be done. I feel like I haven't been paying attention to the stuff for me...shoes, veil, jewelry, etc. I guess I had better get cracking!

LOL- Kristy- you'd better get a move on!! I gort all my stuff out of the way first- now i need to get my FI's clothes and ring for the big day! He's been insisting that he's going to lose some weight and wants to wait to get them, but that's it already- i need to cross it off my list!!!

ugh-I am having such an issue with FI outfit. I have an idea of what I want him to wear but it is still freezing cold out here and no one has linen pants right now! Had anyone else gotten their FI outfit yet?

Oh and by the way-I am officially out of control with my OOT bags

[drtracy]

Ha, Blkatz I'm right there with you, I keep thinking of something else I HAVE to add. At this rate I'm going to need bigger bags!

 

I am also having FI outfit issues. We have the linen pants but I want him to wear a long-sleeved white Guayabera type shirt. The only ones I can find online are either really plain (as in no pattern) or have random colors in their designs. Ugghhh...

Any good websites out there?

 

I think that Old Navy was carrying guys linen pants for a while. They might still have some on clearance....

We just FI's outfit last week PHEW - it was a big one. He is wearing a poplin "stone color" suit from Brooks Brothers

 

Re: Linen pants - have you checked out regular dept stores, I think towards the end of Feb they should be getting their spring/summer stuff. Actually I think Brooks Brothers had some. We originally wanted FI to wear a linen suit but all the pants looked like PJs haha. I think if you do the linen pants and Guayabera type shirt it looks great - just not a whole suit!

 

drTracey/aka date twin - I think there are some threads on where ppl posted the online sites they got their Guayabera shirts and they didnt look plain. Also have you check Tommy Bahama? Its more pricey but he has some good stuff. PS how is it only 2.5 months ahhh!

 

Blkats - I know what you mean about the OOT bags - Im starting to get that way too. I want to add EVERYTHING and then i think about carrying all down to mexico. I think its cuz we all want our guests to feel welcome and excited and thank them for making the trip

Irk double post!

We just ordered custom made shirts from Wedding tropics. One for the groom, his father, brother, and my nephew who is the ring bearer

Excellent, thanks happy and Yael, I'll check them out. I have all the dad's and GMs set, just need the FI. *sigh*

And I have so much stuff for the OOT bags that FI told me that I was nuts
