Laughed it off, but deep down felt pissed that I drove all that way and couldn't even have it pinned for alterations. Tried on my dress, which I still love, and pranced around the store for a brief moment. The consultant goes to help me unzip, but the zipper is stuck. Yes thats right........I am stuck in my brand new Pronovias wedding gown. I'm laughing, while two more consultants attempt to get me out of my dress. OMG, the zipper is broken and they couldn't get me out. The only option was to CUT me out of my dress. To make the day worse, I couldn't find any sexy heels......everything is looking very winter in the stores, so I am going to wait a few more weeks and pray that spring stock starts to arrive. What a day......haha......all I can do is laugh and try not to think of how stressful these next 4 weeks are going to be. I hope you all have a great weekend (just compare is to being cut out of your wedding dress and anything will sound good.....haha)

Oh my gosh! I gasped when you said they cut you out!! I know they will make it right, but still...

Also...I was having a heck of a time finding shoes too. I wanted some like these...



But couldn't find anything similar anywhere so I went to David's Bridal and asked if they could dye some 2 different colors. They said if anyone could do it one girl who was out of town would be the one. She called me yesterday and said she thinks she can and is going to give it a shot. So, I guess we'll see how they turn out!! If you're just looking for white I saw some cute ones on Zappo's too.

I also got word yesterday that my wedding band, and therefore engagement ring were in!!! They've had my e-ring for a little over a month so I am so excited to get it back and see my custom band. I will try to take pics and post them.

If you find any great products let me know-- I'm willing to try almost anything!

My sister got me some celtrixa. It's more for stretch marks I think than cellulite. It's hard for me to tell if it's working because my stretch marks are on my behind and it's hard to see back there. She swears by it though. I think she got 2 bottles as samples and gave me one.

YAY for your rings being in. I left mine home yesterday when I went to work and I felt sooo naked (even more naked than I did in those pics, but anyway) without it. I can imagine how relieved that you will have it back soon. Yes girlie, pics please

We are adding a variation that we made up to the sand ceremony-- let me know what you think of that part especially! Thanks ladies and finally-- GOOD NIGHT! Welcome I’d like to respectfully ask: Who gives this beautiful woman to be married to this wonderful man? Both mom and dad – We Do. On behalf of Justin and Brooke, I welcome you and thank you all for gathering here on this beautiful day to witness their marriage ceremony. The fact that you all have traveled such a great distance to be here today is a testament to the amazing amount of love and support they have. All of you have given them much happiness, love, warmth, and guidance through the various stages of their lives. They would like to sincerely thank you all for being here to celebrate their big day. A special and respectful acknowledgement must also be made to those friends and family members who were unable to attend, or have passed on, but whose spirit remains alive and strong in all our hearts. Justin and Brooke, you are here today surrounded by friends and family. Some people here have known you your entire lives and some for only a few years, but no matter how long or in what circumstances they know you, I can guarantee that everyone here knows what remarkable individuals and what an amazing couple you are. You have chosen to walk through life together. There is no truer statement of love. Before this moment you have been many things to one another- best friend, companion, lover, partner, and even teacher, for you have learned much from one another over the years. Soon you shall say a few words that take you across a threshold of life, and things will never quite be the same between you. For after your vows, you shall say to the world, this- is my husband, this- is my wife. Hand Ceremony As an expression that you are joined together in love - will you please hold up your hands and hold one another, so you may feel the gift that you are to each other. These are the hands of your best friend, young and strong and full of love for you, that are holding yours on your wedding day as you promise to love each other today, tomorrow, and forever. These are the hands that will work alongside yours as together you build your future. These are the hands that will give you goosebumps and massages. These are the hands that will passionately love you and cherish you through the years, and with the slightest touch, will comfort you like no other. These are the hands that will hold you when fear or grief fills your mind. These are the hands that will wipe the tears from your eyes; tears of sorrow and tears of joy. These are the hands that will give you strength when you need it. These are the hands that will tenderly hold your children. These are the hands that will help you to hold your family as one. And lastly, these are the hands that even when wrinkled and aged will still be reaching for yours, still giving you the same unspoken tenderness with just a touch. (Peggy will do her reading) BROOKE, WILL YOU LOOK INTO JUSTIN’S EYES AND INTO HIS HEART, AND NOW SAY YOUR VOWS. I, Brooke, take you, Justin, to be my husband, my best friend, partner in life and my one true love. (add in personal vow here) With this ring, I give you my heart. I have no greater gift to give. I trust you and respect you, I will continue to laugh with you and cry with you. With this ring, I pledge my life and my love to you. Justin, if you accept please say I do… The wedding ring, is a symbol of the unbroken circle of love as it has neither a beginning nor an end. It should always remind those who wear it of the sacredness of marriage and the love that feeds it. We can be reminded of Justin’s parents successful marriage, by the presence of their rings here today. Justin may you forever wear this band as a symbol of love and commitment to you and your marriage from this day forward until death do you part. JUSTIN, WILL YOU LOOK INTO BROOKE’S EYES AND INTO HER HEART, AND NOW SAY YOUR VOWS. I, Justin, take you, Brooke, to be my wife, my best friend, partner in life and my one true love. (add in personal vow here) With this ring, I give you my heart. I have no greater gift to give. I trust you and respect you, I will continue to laugh with you and cry with you. With this ring, I pledge my life and my love to you. Brooke, if you accept please say I do… The engagement ring is a symbol of promise and intention. Now the intention is realized and the promise fulfilled. Justin, please place the wedding band on Brooke’s finger. Just as Brooke’s great grandmother wore this band until the day she died. Brooke may you forever wear this band as a symbol of love and commitment to you and your marriage from this day forward until death do you part Ladies and Gentlemen, Justin and Brooke have demonstrated in your presence today their belief in their love and their desire to live together as Husband and Wife. If you also believe in their love, and wish to add your blessing upon their marriage today, please respond now by saying……………WE DO And are you all willing to sustain and strengthen this marriage, by giving Justin and Brooke the public commitment of your love and support, through all the ups and downs ahead of them…If you are willing, please say……….WE ARE Sand and Shell Ceremony When you arrived at the ceremony today you were asked to place a shell into the jar on the table. We will now have the parents come up and add their shells into the jar (Brooke and Justin hug the parents) This jar symbolizes the foundation of family and friends in Brooke and Justin’s life. They will now be adding sand from two containers, one represents you, Justin, and you, Brooke, as an individual, and all that you were, all that you are, and all that you will ever be. As these two containers of sand are poured into the third container, they will build upon the foundation that was begun, and the individual containers of sand will no longer exist, but will be joined together as one. Just as these grains of sand can never be separated and poured again back into the individual containers, so shall be your marriage. Closing: Justin and Brooke, now you will feel no rain, for each of you will be shelter for the other. Now you will feel no cold, for each of you will be warmth to the other. Now there will be no loneliness, for each of you will be companion to the other. Now you are two persons, but there is only one life before you. May beauty surround you both in the journey ahead and through all the years. May happiness be your companion and your days together be good and long upon the earth. Give to one another new experiences of joy. Challenge one another so that you may grow. May the love you hold for each other, now sealed in marriage, continue to mature with the passing years. May you never take each other for granted, but always experience the wonder of your union. May the people you touch in your lifetime know how much you love and care for one another and may you love one another forever. With friends and family, along with the sun, the sand, and the sea, I have the pleasure to present to you for the very first time… Mr. and Mrs. Moulton. You may now kiss the bride!

OMG!!!

I'm speechless.... well done girl!
