so, I am not trying to be "too" nosey, but will you have a wedding where you live with your family?? that is what we are deciding right now...

haha..Although my family really wanted to come, we chose to do this by ourselves and even though they want to have a party for us upon our return, I really don't want to...HIS family thing ya know

I love the shell idea. Too bad we don't have a ring bearer or a flower girl. Hmmm, maybe the best man and/or the maid of honour could have this role?

 

We're not planning on bringing our real rings with us though. We're just going to get some cheap knock offs at Claire's or something - so would it be weird to do a presentation of fake rings?

I finally finished my ring shells today - just thought I'd share.

they look really great! are you putting the rings in the flowers? Did you hot glue them in??

Are you getting excited??

Thank you! I hot glued the flowers in. I'm still not sure if we are going to put the rings in there for the boys to carry (James is very nervous about it), but we definitely wanted them to carry them, then also have for pics.

 

YES I am getting excited! I'm about to go to the pool to work on my tan =)

figure i'd post this here instead of starting a new thread ...

 

i absolutely LOVE this little trinket box for the ringbearer to carry our rings in:

 

Austrian Crystal Jewelry Trinket Box NIB Scallop Shell - eBay (item 370154913318 end time Mar-06-09 18:04:31 PST)

 

but not sure i wanna spend $30 on it, when a simple pillow or DIY ring shell would be so much cheaper. plus it's pretty tiny. i would probably still want to mount it on something. what do you ladies think? should i just buy it and save myself the DIY? lol i know $30 isn't like a ton of money, but i've been spending on stupid stuff lately!
