Thank you so much, I just find I'm all over the place with my posts and people are going to be soo confused. This was a big help though, thanks again.

I love the bouquet!!!! they are stunning!!! Doesn't your package come with a bridal bouquet tho?

 

I think the earring and braclet is just perfect and blingy enough, you wouldn't need anything else (neckles)

tracy, my package does come with a bouquet, but i can always use that as decoration for the judge's table or something like that. the flowers from there are pretty expensive if i wanted any additional ones, and this way i don't have to worry about my flowers being in season or getting just what i want. it's one of "those things" for me.. i can let other stuff go, but my flowers were my whole inspiration so i want them to look right!

I'm totaly the same way!!! I'm will get the bridal bouquet from the package with probably an upgrade for $40 But I did the BM bouquet, tossing bouquet, and my centerpieces. All at the dollar store, so I saved around $300-400!!

Erin - I love your bouquet!! It's so pretty! Okay and since I can't remember I have to ask - are they real touch flowers that you're using, or did you find a florist in mexico or anything?

 

Tracy - I'd looked at some of the stores around me and either I can't really find flowers I like in my colour AT ALL (the purple flowers they have aren't that fantastic at all) or the others I like make me worry that they'll look too fake. Arg. I'll have to try and find out what options I might have for flowers at the resort before I start stressing.

I am thinking of getting Brian a Tungesten band because he is not flashy and doesn't want diamonds or anything in his band..so I am gonna try to get him to look a them tonight so I can get to ordering..since my set came with a band already..although he hid it from me so I can't play with it..lol!

FI is getting a tungsten band too- he likes the durability and the slightly darker colour as opposed to platinum- not to mention the price! He's the same way- not a flashy guy at all, just wanted something plain. He ordered his online from Tungsten World. He got his first ring pretty quickly, especially since it had to go through customs to get to Canada and we were really impressed with the quality. Unfortunately it was a bit too big so he sent it back and had it exchanged for another one. We're still waiting for that one but it should be here any day now. We'd definitely recommend that company if you're thinking about ordering online.

meghan.. i bought my stargazers from Save on Crafts, Wedding Supplies, Flowers, Tulle, Lights, Decorations & Discount Craft Supplies Save-on-crafts. they have the best flowers, hands down! and they have great prices too! if you're having trouble finding ones you like, check out that site or Silk Flowers, Silk Wedding Flowers, and Floral Supplies as well.

I have panic attacks, freak outs, bad dreams....I'm still not convinced that this will happen...I'm not quite sure what it will take! i've been looking for my "something old" lately and my mom was cleaning out a closet the other day and found her garter from her wedding. i'm not doing a garter toss or anything, but i think it will be cool to have that of hers! My something old is a necklace from my grandmother that was like my only inheritance - what's everyone else doing? also, my amazing flower lady sent me pictures of her first stab at my bouquet... what do you think? (personally.. i'm in love!) the stems are going to be wrapped in strips of the fabric taken off my dress when it's shortened.

GORGEOUS ERIN!
