Oh yes!! Love the dress, and it sounds like with your tattoo and the fact that you wanted color, it's perfect!!

 

Question for all the brides: does anyone know where to get decorative starfish?

As far as the red, i was always going to do colour..just didnt think red lol but the dress resembles my wedding dress which i love, but i didnt want the TTD to be the same colour, as far as the red goes...ive got a red tattoo on my back, which my FI doesnt want covered lol .....plus thinking now, i think i love the idea of something totally different lol

perfect hun... i think i just wanted to hear opinions, as my FI has no idea about it lol

I love it and I think you picked a great colour, you are already going to wear ivory so why not a different colour, I like this idea. Your picture are going to look amazing, ivory on the wedding day and red for TTD, it's just perfect!

Decorative starfish can be found at Any craft store or at oriental trading

We invited 114 due to my FI pretty big family but we knew that a lot of them won't make it. So far 24 booked and our last day of RSVPs is the 24th. We'll see what happens but I am hoping it's not going to be more than 30 . We so wanted a small intimate wedding, but because there is so much drama in family we had to invite pretty much everyone.

If we have extra I am sure we can sell them on here or find a use for them.  We are doing $1 or $2 bags so I am not too too worried!

Some families just drive you crazy, don't they? My FI's parents insisted we invite their friends and their friends' kids, can you believe that? I was fuming about it for the longest time

Aside from that his side is huge and mines not too much better.... I couldn't get over how many people... over 200!!!! UGH oh well... we already know who we can expect and who we know is a definite NO!
