Shane,  I can go on and on...but I think we sum it up in our daily conversation.  I will say that Miami will not know what to do with us 3.  Love you

1 year of planning to be exact.. I sacrificed  a lot of weekends but it was all worth it.  Most of my BM"s were out of town so no big DIY parties.. but my Alcohol, music and BDW always kept me company.  Happy Planning and remember to capture you and your's FI vision...

 

Congrats to you.

Indeed!  We went June 11th but when they said he was coming in August (even though they were still going to give me the discount), I said I will come back.  And indeed I did.  I set my appointment for 4pm.  The last appointment, so not only did we have him all to ourselves we had the whole damn store which was fantastic.  He even sketched me in my dress with my blue shoes.. Wow I totally forgot to mention that.. thanks for the reminder.  He also painted my blue CL's at the bottom.  I will hang this after the wedding.

AWESOME JOB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I LOVE the colors on everything!! I am SO curious now!! What is in this Naughty Nite kit?!?!?

[coconoir1908]

LOL, Once I start to pack everything this weekend, I'll be sure to take pictures. I simply forgot to take pictures of a few things when putting them away & moving on. I have quite a few singles who are bringing "friends", couples & newlyweds. So my naughty nite kits include: 4 condoms, 2 dental dams, 2 lubes & 2 VCF films. The saying is. "here's a little something to get you through the nite, so if your gonna do it, do it " Wright" Wright will be my new last name so i tried to incorporate that into many things/sayings.

Well, as best I tried to remember everything I didn't. Please charge it to my end of the road transition from planning to packing ;-)  Here are my flower girl bags.  My FG's are 3 & 4 years old which, so I wanted to keep things the same as much as possible as they will be sitting at the same table.  I love my little babies but they are spoiled and not just from me.  So the "I want this, etc.." should be limited as they have the same things.  most of the items were purchased from Michaels & Target with a few things being found at Burlington Coat Factory & Marshalls. 

 

Their bags

 

Their little lunch boxes/purses filled with goodies

 

And everything all together.

 

I also have Coloring books with stickers that will be at their tables during the reception.  It will hopefully keep them busy if they are not dancing. 

 

Here is the shell that my son will carry our rings in.  This and the shells that FI and I will pour our sand from (mentioned earlier) were purchased from: conchking.com

My son the ring bearer shell.                                         The inspiration Photo that sparked me to find the shell ;-)

 

FI & I shell x2, I didn't unwrap the other.  I'm not to sure where I purchased the stands from.  Another BDW bride was going to sell me hers but she only had one.  I'm quite sure I have the email buried somewhere. 

 

Our Reception table numbers.

Hand painted numbers and bases which I purchased from Michaels.  I used Martha Stewarts craft paints. These will be assembled in Mexico with Gorilla Glue

 

Our DIY cocktail hour menus, & stirrers (I made 75), along with our purchased napkins

OMG Coco! You continue to amaze and inspire ALL of us! Thank you for all of your information, hard work, sharing and just plain awesomeness.  We only "spoke" a few times, but you are simply incredible and I think I speak for all of us when I say we are totally excited for you!

 

Love,

Debra
