Calling all November 2009 Brides!

[JGAMMAGIRL77]

I feel that I'm right on track. The only things that I have left to do is:

 

-Buy shoes and hairpiece

-Day of the wedding stationary

-OOT bag goodies

-Finalize music selection

 

I think 4 months is enough time for me to complete these tasks. I don't know about you guys but I'm not really enjoy the engagement period per say. I look forward to the actual wedding day!!!!

What is everyone doing for centerpieces? Are you getting them at your destination or are you packing them with you?? I keep thinking this is all I have left...sike! Keeps my blood pressure down though

I'm getting ready to go on etsy now and pick out my flower and blusher/veil maker. Also possibly my jewelry maker. Wish me luck.

i might have a stupid question, but why you all girls are doing centerpieces?, do i need to worry about that too?? im getting married @ the Ritz Carlton Kapalua i dont have a wedding planner but i have an amazing wedding coordinator that is provided by the hotel, do i need more?

My FI had a great idea last night that I'm thrilled about and wanted to share!! We were looking at sand ceremony kits online and started talking about all the places we've been together and realized that a lot of our life has revolved around beaches; we met in Hawaii, are from North Carolina, live in Vancouver and are getting married in Mexico. He suggested that we get sand from each of these places and combine all that sand for our sand ceremony instead of doing colors so it's really all the pieces of our life coming together as one.

I thought it was the sweetest thing to have it be that personal and love the idea. And this way we don't have to buy anything except a holder (which btw does anyone know where to get a sand frame?? I've seen some people on here use it and I like the idea better than a vase)!!

Woohoo another thing off the list!

Thats a great idea Natalie. Are you gonna just order sand from all those places or do you have friends/family in the diff areas that could bring to sand to you.

 

OK so I started researching honeymoon options for Jan. We have an extra vacay week with our timeshare so we're gonna just do a villa/condo in Orlando so we can go to Disney and Universal Studios. I'm so excited. We are big amusement park fans so this'll be perfect. The cruise for the wedding then the amusement park fun for the honeymoon. The only prob is that we really wanted an all inclusive place for the honeymoon, but with the $$$ we're saving by using our timeshare we can go out and eat in. It should be cool.

I'm doing tall vases filled with roses, hydrengas and currly willow. I will have orchids and crystals hanging from the willow.

I'm going to soft colors such as white, light pink, and yellow.

Hope this helps.
