Best Man just bailed with 4 mos. to go - do you ask someone else to step in?

I love Vancouver! Me and my fiancee are both from northern BC and we love it here so much!!

 

I have no idea. We are booking with a group, and they have said they want to stay at our resort, so I don't see them hunting around for a better deal. Are you guys all booking separately? I can see that, but the final date for our group booking is the end of September. Some people! Also annoying...people that don't bother RSVP'ing. I know I've seen a few threads around here about that! Argh!

 

We do have a wedding website. We are also using it to manage our RSVPs. Wow, good luck with the RSVPs!! Your deadline is soon, very exciting! I just realized that now that it is August, the wedding stuff is starting next month! Bridal shower, stag/stagettes, booking and RSVP deadline!!! I wish we had gotten everyone's emails...that sounds like an awesome way to follow up with people!

 

My dress is perfect for me!! Haha. It has a fitted, ruched, body, snug down to just above my knees and then it flares out into a bunch of ruffles. I posted it in the Show Me Your Dress thread. The body has a bit of sparkle and it has a soft sweetheart neckline.

 

I was going to wish you a happy long weekend, but it's BC day so it's probably not a long weekend for you! Have a good one anyways!

That's odd that ppl have gotten the time off work but haven't booked. Do you think they're hoping for a better rate? Some of our 'maybes' are waiting to get a good, last minute rate. The rest are all waiting on something... university schedules, vacation approval, etc.

 

Do you have a wedding website? We've got one with The Knot and are using it to send emails to our guests, manage our RSVP list, etc. Our guests got a STD last December, group booking info in May, and our invite in June, so I can't believe we haven't heard anything either way from about half our invited guests! Our RSVP deadline is less than a week away so I fear we'll be doing LOTS of follow up. I think I'll use the website to send out one last reminder email - hopefully it'll get a few more ppl to respond.

 

Yay, glad you found your FI's outfit! Silk linen pants sound really nice. My guy is always on the hot side too, but he wanted a suit so that's what he got. The jacket will be on the back of the chair more than on him though I'm betting. My dress is form fitting but has a net overlay with a cool pattern on it (I call it a 'sexy-fun' dress) so his suit will 'match' in formality.

 

I haven't posted a photo of my dress (yet) as I don't have a good photo of me in it. I ended up finding it at a sample sale and it's a bit small and has a number of small flaws to it, so it's with my seamstress now. When it's in photo-form, I'll post a pic.   What's your dress like?

 

Oh, and no personalized stuff. We're not finished deciding on things, but I don't think we'll have anything personalized at all.
