Toni, sorry to hear your basket got lost in transit, but I do love the new one you bid on! Your shabby chic theme is going to be great! I can't wait to see pics of the finished product! you are getting so close!!!!:goodvibes

Thanks!! Hopefully I get one of them! :lmao: I can't wait to see the finished product too!! I have everything all thrown all over the place. I am really interested in how it will all look. Its hard to imagine now.

Double Digets is so exciting!! I love those candles you bought for the head table! Where'd you find them at??

Thanks!! I am loving the double digits!! I got the candle holders from Ebay for 4.99!! Gotta love Ebay!

The candle holders are soo cute! I love the crystals on them!!

Thank you!!! I love bling!!! :banana:

Hope your basket turns up, but if not I love the new one. Those candleholders are great!

I just hope one of them turns up! :rotfl:

[keenercam]

Oh, Toni! So sad about the basket - -it was so gorgeous and unique! The new one is really pretty, though and I am so glad you may have solved that problem so easily. :woohoo: Sending pixiedust: on the auction!

[Flurbee]

Toni,

I haven't been on here in sooo long, I finally just got caught up!! I am so sorry to hear about your disaster with DB, how infuriating!! I am glad that you found a dress that you love even more!! :lovestruc I really like the hairstyle that you have chosen, I think it will look great with everything. The shirts you had made were too cute!! I am going to have to seriously steal all of your ideas...:worship: I am hoping to get back to my PJ soon....can't wait to see more updates!!

I actually did get it now!! It came in the mail today and its so cute! I was just about to report on it!

How have you been!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am so glad to see you are back. I hope you are feeling good and things are going well for you and your DF. I can't wait for you to start updating your PJ! :yay:

[DisneyBrideToni]

:confused: The tale of the lost basket:confused:

Ok so here is what happened to the first basket I posted that changed my whole color scheme, remember that one??

Ok so I got it on Ebay and paid for the thing. I received a tracking number for the US Postal Service. Ok so it was sent snail mail but whatever. It should get here.

I checked the tracking after about a week of it being missing and it said it was in Jacksonville, Florida being processed even though the seller was located in Maine. Hmmm...ok New Jersey is on the way down from Maine to Florida...strange.

Then I checked it again about 2 days ago and it was in Texas. I was totally lost at that point. From Maine, to Florida to Texas. When will it come to Jersey??? :confused3

Saturday! Thats when. I got it today. I opened the box and was totally in love with it. Its the perfect size and perfect colors. I am so happy I got it. :cloud9:

Sadly, I am still bidding on the alternate basket. Oh well. Can't have too many baskets for stuff.....Right? :laughing:

In conclusion, I have a very well traveled basket but at least its mine now and it made it home. :yay:

[MegKate]

That sounds like a Meg route - from Maine to New Jersey with stops in both Texas and Florida (where I have family no less! lol!). I'm so happy for you that you've gotten your basket! :thumbsup2 What a trip though!!

PS - Today's your 3 month mark - Congrats! It's so close now!! :)

[ClemsonGirl]

Yay!! I'm so glad your basket finally arrived!! :cool1:

I can't believe its only 3 months away now!! :woohoo: You must be getting SO excited! It will be here before you know it!! :yay:

[Keira1387]

I'm glad you finally got your basket!:goodvibes

[irisbud]

I'm so glad you got your basket!

ETA: Three months today :woohoo:

[disneygal922]

Hey Toni! I'm so happy to hear you got your basket! :goodvibes I agree you can never have to many baskets. And it gives you options! I purchased something on ebay paid for it on 10/23 got a tracking number said it arrived in IL on 10/26 and still haven't received it.... so maybe it just needs time! :laughing:

[DisneyBrideToni]

PS - Today's your 3 month mark - Congrats! It's so close now!! :)

I know I am happy it finally got here. I also won that other basket but I think I will use it in my closet/dressing room Bobby made for me. Maybe I can throw make up in it or something. It was only 4.00!

Yay!! I'm so glad your basket finally arrived!! :cool1:

I can't believe its only 3 months away now!! :woohoo: You must be getting SO excited! It will be here before you know it!! :yay:

OMG 3 months!!!!! The nerves are starting already! I can't believe how fast this went.

I'm glad you finally got your basket!:goodvibes

Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm so glad you got your basket!

ETA: Three months today :woohoo:

Are you getting nervous too!?

Hey Toni! I'm so happy to hear you got your basket! :goodvibes I agree you can never have to many baskets. And it gives you options! I purchased something on ebay paid for it on 10/23 got a tracking number said it arrived in IL on 10/26 and still haven't received it.... so maybe it just needs time! :laughing:

I hope you got what you bid on!!! I don't know why some sellers are so fast and others are so slow. Its crazy.

[29apr00]

:thumbsup2 yeah for finally getting the basket!

[irisbud]

OMG 3 months!!!!! The nerves are starting already! I can't believe how fast this went.

Are you getting nervous too!?



:scared1: Yes! So much more to do, so little time to do it in! I can't imagine having a non-Disney wedding! Then there would be even MORE to finish!

[keenercam]

Yay!! You know I LOVED that first basket!! Oh, and I have so many baskets in my dressing room, and it helps me keep everything organized, from lotions and potions, to extra makeup, to beauty implements, to extra buttons that come with blouses, etc. :goodvibes

BTW, I get more than a little freaked out every time you say how close your wedding is because mine is before yours!! :eek: :scared1:

I am dying to try their Maple Creme Brulee and Cheese soup. I am super excited to have dinner with Christina and Geancarlo though! :yay:

I just booked our rental car from Alamo. I got the Annual Pass discount which was about $30.00. We rented the Grand Prix "or similar". I am going to pre-pay and check in online too so we can just go and not wait in line.

Hmmm...what else have I done??? Thats about it for now. Like I said, I made my reservations for my tea party which will be held after our rehearsal. I bought favors. I will share them with you all later! Very cute stuff. :thumbsup2

[anewmac]

ok call me a foodie.. I cant wait for your report to talk about the food from these places ... oh ya the wedding too LOL

Keep calling and checking for Le Cellier... their maybe a cancelation.. very rare with that one.. BUT ya never know what kind of pixi dust may rain on ya!

[disneygal922]

Toni your ADRs sound great! I'm glad you got your tea party booked! :thumbsup2

[ClemsonGirl]

The schedule sounds great Toni!! :thumbsup2 How exciting!! :cool1: I'm looking forward to the food reports as well!! :rotfl:

[keenercam]

Toni -- Your ADRs sound great! Yes, you definitely have to try to walk up to LeCellier. We were able to walk-in one night at 8:30 after the dinner rush. So, don't give up!
What time is your MKPS? Will you be staying in the park after that for breakfast at CP? Or do you have to leave and come back? Also, how did you get the AP rate for alamo? We haven't activated our APs yet. Is there a way to check what the rates would be for our rental if we had our APs?

[irisbud]

Toni, your ADRs sound great! It looks like you have a good mix of time with your guests/families and alone time! I forget, are you staying at WLV the whole time? If you are, alost of your ressies are convenient to it!

[bridetobe789]

Congrats on getting your schedule all worked out! Is le cellier really that hard to get in advance? I didn't know that but I also have never been there either!

I can't wait! The food will be great. I will make sure I take lots of food pics! I will definitely keep trying to call. I would love to eat there.

Toni your ADRs sound great! I'm glad you got your tea party booked! :thumbsup2

The tea party will be so much fun. It will be nice to get together with all the woman coming to the wedding!

The schedule sounds great Toni!! :thumbsup2 How exciting!! :cool1: I'm looking forward to the food reports as well!! :rotfl:

Thanks! I can't wait to EAT!!!! :lmao:

I will definitely give it a try. My MKPS is at 5am. I will just have to go back to get changed and maybe rest for a tiny bit before heading back out.

For Alamo, I found a code on ******************** when you make your reservation, there is a section that asks for an ID code. You type in ID 860292, then when where it asks for your membership number you type in the letters/numbers on the back of the annual pass voucher. You don't have to have them activated yet. Plus, you can make the reservation, and you don't have to pay yet. You can make it and if you decide to cancel you can cancel it at any time.

Thanks! I will be at the WLV the whole time so it is nice an convenient.

It does seem is pretty hard to get into there. I have never been so I really wanted to get in but I am going to keep calling in case there are cancellations. I was surprised, I tried about 12 dates but all of them were booked. :sad2:

[Flurbee]

Toni,

Congratulations on all of your yummy reservations!!:thumbsup2 Too bad about Le Cellier-Jake and I ate there 2 years ago when we went. I guess we lucked out with the reservation. Keep trying though, the food is excellent!! We are doing so much better then before. Thanks for thinking of me...:) I really am planning to update my PJ very soon!!

I am going to keep trying for Le Cellier. Even if its just for lunch. I will keep trying up until I leave and then again when we are there. Hopefully the concierge can hook us up.

Get moving with that PJ!!!! :thumbsup2

Bridal Shower Invites Are Out!

So this weekend my FMIL and I addressed all 82 shower invitations. Crazy! I told her I could just print the envelopes on the computer but she wanted to address them. SOOOOOOOO that is what we did.

http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g229/Dancefever1978/last012.jpg
http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g229/Dancefever1978/last013.jpg
http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g229/Dancefever1978/last019.jpg

FMIL is trying to get more addresses that we didn't have. I am pretty tired and bored at this point.

http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g229/Dancefever1978/last020.jpg


So I think I previously shared the invitation but just in case, here it is again.

http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g229/Dancefever1978/getimagephp.jpg

We also made these inserts to include.

This one is for the wishing well. I am sure most people have these. My family does them ALL the time and usually put gadgets and things in it. My MOH is making it. I had to cut out SOOO many of these things!

http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g229/Dancefever1978/last007.jpg

We are also asking for guests to bring their favorite receipe so we included an index card and this little poem.

http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g229/Dancefever1978/last011.jpg

It was a ton of work but I am glad its done. The shower is January 10th. Can't wait. It should be a nice time!

My FMIL is paying for the whole thing. We booked a local country club, which I know I previously showed pictures. The centerpieces we picked out are really cool, they are flowers and kitchen utensils. Hard to describe but they really are cool. I will be sure to share pics.

Thats all for now! In about two weeks the wedding invites go out and there is no turning back!!! :scared1: :laughing:

[IndyBride]

Looks like you got a lot of work done!!!! Whenever I am addressing a lot of envelopes the first bit look great and the last ones are awful!!!

[anewmac]

CUTE ideas for the invites. Ive never heard of that before.. Great idea! Cant wait to see the centerpieces!

[jennifaerie]

Wow! I've never heard of a wishing well-- that sounds really cool. I also love the idea of sharing recipes! You're more inclined to make a recipe if it's recommended by someone you know. Very cool!

[HurriKahneRachael]

Cute invitations... I tried to post my wedding cake in another forum and I don't have enough posts :0(

I'll have to comment 4 more times on yours!!!!

[disneygal922]

Your shower invites are so cute! It sure sounds like a lot of work, but after those gorgeous wedding invites you had I'm sure this went by quickly! Are all 82 guests coming to the Disney wedding?

[camara381]

How cute!!! I love the wishing well idea never heard of it. I am so doing the receipe card at mine.

[pixiemama3]

vzery pretty invites and love the wishing well and reciepe card ideas. You are getting so close under 3 mths now you must be so excited.

[bridetobe789]

Very cute !! How exciting to have that all done! Finally someone else that has heard of a wishing well!! I think it is a northern thing more so?!

[figmentfan814]

The invitations really are great! My aunt did recipe inserts for my one shower too and I loved them. Although I need to take the time to make something off of the cards :upsidedow

I don't know if we talked about this before, but what pattern are you getting from Pfaltzgraff. We also got our dishes from there.

[DisneyBrideToni]

Looks like you got a lot of work done!!!! Whenever I am addressing a lot of envelopes the first bit look great and the last ones are awful!!!

HAHA Thats how mine were. I started messing up addresses and names. The printer would have been easier!

CUTE ideas for the invites. Ive never heard of that before.. Great idea! Cant wait to see the centerpieces!

My family always does a wishing well. Its a great way to get all the little gadgets you register for and some that you may not have.

Wow! I've never heard of a wishing well-- that sounds really cool. I also love the idea of sharing recipes! You're more inclined to make a recipe if it's recommended by someone you know. Very cool!

I need lots of recipes!!!! I am learning how to cook. So far so good but I can't just whip up something so I need a recipe to go by.

Cute invitations... I tried to post my wedding cake in another forum and I don't have enough posts :0(

I'll have to comment 4 more times on yours!!!!

YAY RACHAEL!! I see that you started a TR! Can't wait to read it!

Your shower invites are so cute! It sure sounds like a lot of work, but after those gorgeous wedding invites you had I'm sure this went by quickly! Are all 82 guests coming to the Disney wedding?

Thanks!!! It was a lot of work but it was fun at the same time. Its really exciting! We are only having 36 guests in Disney but we are having an at home reception about a month after we return which will have 150 guests!

How cute!!! I love the wishing well idea never heard of it. I am so doing the receipe card at mine.

Not many people have heard of the wishing well. I wonder if its something regional up North? :confused3 I think the recipe card idea was great. That was my FMIL's idea!

vzery pretty invites and love the wishing well and reciepe card ideas. You are getting so close under 3 mths now you must be so excited.

Thanks!!!! I am getting excited but a little nervous too! More so about the plane ride though. :rotfl:

Very cute !! How exciting to have that all done! Finally someone else that has heard of a wishing well!! I think it is a northern thing more so?!

I don't know if we talked about this before, but what pattern are you getting from Pfaltzgraff. We also got our dishes from there.

Thanks!!! My FMIL thought of the recipe card idea. I need as many recipes as I can get!

We are getting the Napoli pattern from Pfaltzgraff. Bobby picked it out. It matches up pretty well with the house. Here is a pic.

http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g229/Dancefever1978/p586b.jpg

My mom actually bought a few things already for my Christmas gift which Bobby will be thrilled about. He said if anyone asks what to get me for Christmas direct them to the pfaltzgraff site. This coming from a man. :lmao:

Which pattern did you get???

[irisbud]

Cute invites, Toni! The Wishing Well and the recipe cards are great ideas!

[MegKate]

Awesome shower invites - you do look tired and bored - as you well should be with all that work! :thumbsup2 Now I know who to hire out to do mine - LOL!

I really like your Pfaltzgraff pattern. I have Flower Garden myself - which they discontinued as soon as I bought it! :eek: But they last - I dropped five of the dinner plates a few days ago (don't ask!!) and they didn't break! So thumbs up on that too! :thumbsup2

[DisneyBrideToni]

Cute invites, Toni! The Wishing Well and the recipe cards are great ideas!

Thank you!! :goodvibes

Thanks! I was bored after about the 30th invitation!! LOL Glad I don't have to do it again...haha.

I had never heard of pfaltzgraff before Bobby told me about them. I have never seen the flower garden set. You know, if you go on Ebay they sell tons of pfaltzgraff brand new and I bet you can find your pattern on there!

[Flurbee]

Toni,

Your invitations look great for the shower...I had never heard of the wishing well idea....I also love the recipe card idea....:thumbsup2 Can't wait for more...You are getting so close!!

[DisneyBrideToni]

Toni,

Your invitations look great for the shower...I had never heard of the wishing well idea....I also love the recipe card idea....:thumbsup2 Can't wait for more...You are getting so close!!

Hey Maure! I can't believe how close it is now. I think I am down to 73 days or something like that. Its going by so fast. I have things to up date but my computer is broken...again...and so I have had to use everyone elses computers so I can't load up pics.

I am surprised a lot of people haven't heard of a wishing well. I thought they were pretty common. I need all the recipes I can get!!!!! I am just now starting to cook. So far, so good. I need more practice though. :rotfl:

[Flurbee]

Toni,

I am like you....I didn't really start to cook until I moved in with Jake....It gets easier with time....I also need to follow a recipe, I should send you one of my favorite recipes!!!

[DisneyBrideToni]

Toni,

I am like you....I didn't really start to cook until I moved in with Jake....It gets easier with time....I also need to follow a recipe, I should send you one of my favorite recipes!!!

That would be cool!!! I need all the recipes I can get! :lmao:

[DisneyBrideToni]

Wedding Invites are out!!!

I sent out the invites a tiny bit earlier because of my last minute family. I really would like to know exactly how many are coming. Surprisingly, Bobby's dad is not sure he is going! :eek: It blows my mind but I can't say I am surprised, Bobby's isn't either.

So I figured I would post some pictures of the invites all done up in their final form. Here are my super Shabby Chic invitations!

http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g229/Dancefever1978/026.jpg

http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g229/Dancefever1978/034.jpg

Funny story though about the invites. I had them all sealed and ready to go and it hit me! :headache: I forgot to put a stamp on the RSVP return envelope. Ughh...I was so annoyed but people are still sending them back and I haven't heard anything so maybe they really didn't notice. :rolleyes1

My advice on invitations, make sure you have a stamp on your return envelope. :lmao:

[MegKate]

I love them Toni!!! :lovestruc
I like the backdrop as well - you could put them in a catalog! :thumbsup2

[IndyBride]

Your invites came out so great!!!! That sucks about the stamp but at least everyone is still returning them. It seems like people usually have a LOT of trouble getting those back.

[Rebclay]

You're invites really do look amazing. I bet you are so excited with the big day getting so close. I can't wait and it's not even my day lol.

[jennifaerie]

So beautiful, Toni!

I can tell you right now, you're going to be a getting a lot of compliments on them! That was one of the best parts of all the planning... hearing positive feedback on all your hard work!

[29apr00]

Wow your invitations are just beautiful Toni!!

Wow, i'm suprised, and very sorry, that Bobby's dad isn't sure he is going! That just completely blows my mind. :hug:

[keenercam]

Toni -- Your invitations came out so well! They are absolutely gorgeous! I know it must feel awesome to have them out. :woohoo:

[irisbud]

Love the invites, Toni! I don't think you sent them out too early for a WDW wedding, as you need some final counts earlier than you would at home. I sent mine out eight weeks ago, and your wedding is only like 10 days after mine :rotfl: . I might have been a little early :rolleyes2: As for the stamp: I think people who were going to send them back will regardless, and people who weren't wouldn't even with the stamp. I stamped all of mine and got one card back :rolleyes:

[disneygal922]

Toni ~ your invites are beautiful! I love the way you took the pics with your flowers behind them! They look like professional pictures! :goodvibes

[camara381]

WoW the invitatons are gorgeous!!!1

[ClemsonGirl]

Wow Toni I LOVE the invites!! They came out amazing! :cool1:

I totally understand the frustration of your DF's dad saying he might not come. When we initially told DF's brother about having the wedding at Disney he said he was excited, but now is saying he might not come. And it is only one state down for him! He comes here to South Carolina all the time but can't go down to Florida ONCE for his brother's wedding? So frustrating. :sad2:

[DisneyBrideToni]

I love them Toni!!! :lovestruc
I like the backdrop as well - you could put them in a catalog! :thumbsup2

Thanks Meg!!! I got bored one night and said, hmm...let me do a little background for them. I thought it would look nice in a scrapbook! :rotfl:

Your invites came out so great!!!! That sucks about the stamp but at least everyone is still returning them. It seems like people usually have a LOT of trouble getting those back.

Thanks Val! Yeah the stamps did suck but I figured oh well to late now. It seems that some RSVP's came in and now its halted! I don't know, I always send RSVP's back as soon as I get them. :confused3

You're invites really do look amazing. I bet you are so excited with the big day getting so close. I can't wait and it's not even my day lol.

Thank you!!!! I am getting very excited now. I can't believe how fast time flies by!

So beautiful, Toni!

I can tell you right now, you're going to be a getting a lot of compliments on them! That was one of the best parts of all the planning... hearing positive feedback on all your hard work!

Thanks Jennifer!!!! I did hear some comments back from family and it did make me feel good. You always do things for your wedding to be beautiful and to make yourself happy but its really nice to hear great feedback on the selections I made.

Wow your invitations are just beautiful Toni!!

Wow, i'm suprised, and very sorry, that Bobby's dad isn't sure he is going! That just completely blows my mind. :hug:

Thanks Jennifer! Yeah I don't know what it going on with his dad. Its silly. I feel bad for him but hopefully his dad will come to his senses.

Toni -- Your invitations came out so well! They are absolutely gorgeous! I know it must feel awesome to have them out. :woohoo:

Thanks!!!!! It really does feel good to have them out!!!! That really makes it seem like its all coming together now and its almost here! :banana:

Love the invites, Toni! I don't think you sent them out too early for a WDW wedding, as you need some final counts earlier than you would at home.

I stamped all of mine and got one card back :rolleyes:

Thank you! Thank you!!! :rotfl: I think you are right! You can't be to early for a destination wedding. You do need to turn in numbers a little bit earlier than a normal at home wedding. I don't think we sent them out too early. I think we are both good! :thumbsup2 I wish you were still going to be in Disney while I am there! I would have loved to have met up!! Maybe if we go back for our anniversaries we can meet!

Toni ~ your invites are beautiful! I love the way you took the pics with your flowers behind them! They look like professional pictures! :goodvibes

Thank you!!! I figured I would try and make the pictures more interesting..plus I was really bored. :lmao:

WoW the invitatons are gorgeous!!!1

Thank you!!!!!!!!! :goodvibes

Wow Toni I LOVE the invites!! They came out amazing! :cool1:

I totally understand the frustration of your DF's dad saying he might not come. When we initially told DF's brother about having the wedding at Disney he said he was excited, but now is saying he might not come. And it is only one state down for him! He comes here to South Carolina all the time but can't go down to Florida ONCE for his brother's wedding? So frustrating. :sad2:

Thanks so much!!! Sorry to hear about your DF's brother!
:hug: I hope he decides to go. Bobby is calling his dad tomorrow to see if he is going or not. If he isn't Bobby has decided to invite an Aunt and Uncle that we couldn't fit in to the guest list. Its really sad that a father even has to think about it. :sad2:

[WithDisneySpirit]

Oooohh, I am in love with the Napoli dishes pattern - I may be finally tempted to replace my 30 year old dishes :rotfl: I got them when I was 17, LOL and now, I am 48 :scared1:

You invites came out so beautiful, Toni!! :lovestruc

[irisbud]

Yes, it is too bad. Meeting up would have been fun!

Randy's mom isn't going to our wedding either :sad2: He seems okay with that, but it is frustrating. Hopefully Bobby's dad will come through. If not, maybe it's for the better, KWIM?

[adisneygal]

I love the invites! The whole shabby chic theme is awesome and will work so well in the Attic. :thumbsup2

[Flurbee]

:) Toni,

Those invitations look awesome!! Oh well about the stamps, I guess there is nothing you can do now, plus I agree with what someone else said, they will get sent back or not regardless of the stamp....:goodvibes Good job!! It is all coming together now!!

[trudy88]

I just love the whole Shabby Chic theme. That's the way we've decorated our house.
I bet your guests can spring for a stamp!

Thanks!!! I had never really paid much attention to Pfaltzgraff but Bobby loves it and he actually picked the Napoli pattern. The colors really match how I am going to decorate the house so its perfect.

Bobby said he doesn't even care any more. He is going to call his dad soon and see what he is doing. Its pretty sad really.

I love the invites! The whole shabby chic theme is awesome and will work so well in the Attic. :thumbsup2

Thank you!!!! I loved visiting the Attic. I wasn't sure about it from the pictures but it is SO much better in person than in the pics. I love it now. We are wedding twins!!!

:) Toni,

Thank you!!! Yeah they are out now without the stamps. I rushed and thats what happened...lol. They can deal with it and just stick the silly stamp on to mail it back! :lmao:

I just love the whole Shabby Chic theme. That's the way we've decorated our house.
I bet your guests can spring for a stamp!

Thank you! I LOVE shabby chic. THe colors are so pretty and I wish I could do our future home that way but Bobby is NOT about pinks and those colors in the house. :lmao:

[DisneyBrideToni]

:lovestruc Favors Finally!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :lovestruc

So Bobby finally got off his butt and did the drawing for our favors! They came out fantastic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ok, so my DF Bobby draws cartoons. We thought it would be a nice personalized favor for him to draw a cartoon picture of us, in wedding attire, and put it on something using Cafepress. So we decided on mugs. Everyone can use a mug! I had the idea to get some coffee and cocoa to put in with the mug to complete it. I figured since we are having a Disney wedding, I would use Mickey Coffee and Cocoa! So when I went on my planning session trip, I bought a bunch of Mickey Coffee and Cocoa at DTD.

Bobby was supposed to have the favors done a while ago but he got a little lazy with it. I nagged him endlessly until he finally did the drawing and we submitted it to Cafepress. We just got the mugs!!! So here are some pictures of the mugs and how I will be packaging them up.

Now we also have two 3 year olds coming and we obviously couldn't give them a mug and coffee! :rotfl: So we went to the Disney Store and, in keeping with the whole mug/cup theme got these along with a stuffed animal in lieu of the coffee/cocoa!

http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g229/Dancefever1978/036.jpg
http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g229/Dancefever1978/037.jpg

and this is how they are wrapped. I had to make little name tags so that we can designate the babies from the adults. I thought I would make little mickey head name tags out of some cardstock I had left. I made a template using a soda bottle cap and a gatorade bottle cap. :lmao: Hey it worked!

http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g229/Dancefever1978/038.jpg
http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g229/Dancefever1978/047.jpg

Well those are my favors!!! We also made t-shirts for ourselves to wear on the honeymoon with the picture he drew. You can see the whole picture much better on the shirts since its laid out flat.

Mine is pink and his is white

I forget we both have "Roberts" since we never call them that! :rotfl:

Tea Party Details

I will be having a Bridal Tea for all the ladies attending the wedding. We will have about 20 girls there. Three of which are little girls. The tea will take place on Sunday, February 1st at 2pm at the Garden View Tea Room in the Grand Floridian which will be after our rehearsal.

When you have a large group you have to pre-select a menu and I chose the Buckingham Palace Menu for the women which includes:

Buckingham Palace $19.50 per guest
Our traditional tea sandwiches, scone and jam tart complemented by fresh strawberries and cream; or a selection of freshly baked pastries served with your choice of tea.

The three little girls will have the Mrs. Potts tea menu which includes:

Mrs Pott's Tea $10.50 per guest
For the younger "tea lover" in your party, we offer a different variety of tea sandwiches: tuna salad, ham and cheese, and peanut butter and jelly on white bread. We serve our Mad Hatter tea, followed with a choice of two pastries.

Tea Party Attire

As I previously posted, this is the dress I bought for the tea which was purchased from Ann Taylor.

http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g229/Dancefever1978/225522_6600.jpg

I am also asking the ladies to wear a hat if they would like so I bought this hat to go with my dress. Its so very Audrey Hepburn which is my fashion idol. :cutie:

http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g229/Dancefever1978/08f7_1.jpg

I bought red flats from the Gap and a matching clutch to also go with everything but I don't have a pic of those.

Tea Party Favors

I wanted my favors to reflect the tea so I found these adorable candles on www.beau-coup.com.

For the ladies:

Toni, I love all the little details for the tea. We used the same menus and did the hats and the ladies absolutely loved it! :cutie: The favors are so cute; what a perfect touch!

Thank you!! I thought those menus sounded the most appetizing..lol. I am excited about the hats. I have to say that I stole that idea from you!! I thought it was so perfect for a tea so you inspired me there! :goodvibes ACTUALLY it was your TR that gave me the idea to do the tea. I never thought of it until I saw your report.

WHAT???? Aww Toni I love you girl. If we go then I would love and be honored to come. Aww!

xoxoxox

Yay! It would be fun!!! :hug: I wish I could slip you in to the wedding! You could always stroll by SBP and have a seat though!

[Goldeelox9]

Toni, you are so close. I can not wait to hear all about it!

[Flurbee]

Toni,

Wow girl, you are getting so close!! We just got back from Disney, we were there the week before Christmas, and I was thinking about you while we were there!!!:goodvibes Those tea party favors are SOOO cute!!! I never thought of doing favors for the tea party, but now I will have to...:) I also love the tags that are on them!! Question: Did you have to know exactly how many people were coming to the tea party and if so, did you have people RSVP specifically for that? Or how does that work? Can you just give Disney an estimated #? Just curious. I didn't get to see pics of your dress fitting, you must have already took them down. If you want, you can email them to me, I would love to see them...Flurbee@aol.com...If you have time, that is....I am excited for you, its coming so fast. :banana:

[DisneyBrideToni]

Toni,

Wow girl, you are getting so close!! We just got back from Disney, we were there the week before Christmas, and I was thinking about you while we were there!!!:goodvibes Those tea party favors are SOOO cute!!! I never thought of doing favors for the tea party, but now I will have to...:) I also love the tags that are on them!! Question: Did you have to know exactly how many people were coming to the tea party and if so, did you have people RSVP specifically for that? Or how does that work? Can you just give Disney an estimated #? Just curious. I didn't get to see pics of your dress fitting, you must have already took them down. If you want, you can email them to me, I would love to see them...Flurbee@aol.com...If you have time, that is....I am excited for you, its coming so fast. :banana:

yay Maure! Thats great that you were in Disney. I hope you had a great time!!! I still have my pics of the fitting up. here is the link to it. its post 838.

For the tea, I just gave them an estimate of how many will attend. I had to call group dining since I am having 20 girls there. I was going to send out an invitation to the women about the tea party and have them RSVP so that I could get an idea of who would be going but it kind of went around by word of mouth and I talked to all the women and figured out who was going to attend. I was told that I don't have to tell Disney that they will add it up that day.

Some Random Updates

I have some pictures of things for the wedding that I thought I would share. Some items have been purchased and some have been made!

Up First we have some random purchases. :goodvibes
My FMIL bought me these makeup bags on her recent vacation. It was so sweet of her!

My Matron of Honor Gifts:)

My cousin/matron of honor loves cherries. When I went to Disney this past June I saw this adorable purse and wallet so I had to scoop it up for her. I also wanted to get her some piece of jewelry to wear with her gown so I found this silver locket at the World of Disney store in DTD.

Feeling chilly...........:idea:

Since my wedding is in February and I knew it would be cold at the Dessert Party I bought a Pashmina to wear. This is a bad picture since its laying on a white sheet but I am sure you can make it out...LOL

http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g229/Dancefever1978/ToniDanifunweekend115.jpg

A little something for the DF............: :lovestruc
My DF is a HUGEEEEEEEE Batman fan so since everything in this wedding is all about me I thought I would bring in a little of his personality so I bought him these Batman cufflinks. He loves them.

http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g229/Dancefever1978/ToniDanifunweekend159.jpg

In this same theme, for our New Jersey reception, I got these garters.

http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g229/Dancefever1978/ToniDanifunweekend113.jpg

I knew my DF would keep this garter as opposed to my Donald Disney one..lol.

I got this really cute bag from Ebay. I loved it when I saw it and right now I am storing my wedding planner and documents in it.

http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g229/Dancefever1978/ToniDanifunweekend161.jpg
http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g229/Dancefever1978/ToniDanifunweekend162.jpg

Now for the creative side.................................: :wizard:

I played around with making the program for the ceremony. I stress out making things making sure they don't look cheesy. If there was some kind of website that made invitations and programs in small quantities instead of like 100 at a time, I would just have someone else do them...lol.

So, that being said, here is my attempt at a program. The inside pages are made with vellum and the outside is a double sided card stock. One side is the dark pink and the inside is the light pink. I used a silver stamp from Martha Stewart crafts to make the silver swirlies and the "P" monogram.

http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g229/Dancefever1978/ToniDanifunweekend243.jpg
http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g229/Dancefever1978/ToniDanifunweekend245.jpg
http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g229/Dancefever1978/ToniDanifunweekend246.jpg

I may play around with something else but I kind of like them. I didn't want the stamp to be perfect. I kind of wanted it to look worn out to fit with my shabby chic theme. I did want them to be simple yet elegant in a way.

Ok now with the favors. As I have stated before I was going to have my DF draw a picture of us in cartoon form, with our wedding clothes on and the mickey bride/groom ears. Well he is a bit of a slacker with this so I don't have the mugs done yet...lol. but while I was in Disney for my planning session I did get coffee and cocoa from DTD.

http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g229/Dancefever1978/ToniDanifunweekend107.jpg

Ok so I did a mock up of what the favors will be like. I used a mug in my house for illustration purposes only. PLEASE DO NOT THINK I AM GIVING PEOPLE THESE UGLY MUGS....LOL. This is basically to give you an idea until I get my real mugs....whenever that may be...lol.

Ok so I am getting white boxes and filling them with tissue paper. I also bought some white paper roses and pink mini flowers to put on the boxes along with ribbon and little silver thank you charms. I bought pink ribbon and silver ribbon. I will be alternating the boxes with the pink and silver ribbon. This will be my way of telling which box has coffee and which has cocoa. I want to make sure each couple gets one coffee and one cocoa. So here are the favor pictures.

This is the outside of the box shown with the pink ribbon:
http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g229/Dancefever1978/15.jpg
http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g229/Dancefever1978/16.jpg

and now this is my mock up. Remember the ugly green mug is NOT the favor mug...LOL.

http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g229/Dancefever1978/ToniDanifunweekend111.jpg
http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g229/Dancefever1978/ToniDanifunweekend112.jpg

I think they will be pretty cool when I get the real mugs. I also want to get that shredded paper to put in the boxes instead of tissue paper but thats all I had at the time.

Well I guess thats all the updates for now! I feel like I am running out of wedding stuff to do...lmao. I am just well ahead for now so I guess I can take a rest. ;) If I can actually let myself do that!

OMG! My fiance is batman obsessed too!! He wants to name our first son Bruce Wayne lol .. the prices we pay lol.. Can you tell me where you found the cufflinks and garter?

6 More Months and My Magic Kingdom Photo Shoot Bouquet:flower:

So I am now officially 6 months away from my wedding day!!! Well August 2nd will be 6 months but that is only 2 hours away so I am close. :rotfl:

It is exciting but it seems so far away and its NOT going by fast. At least not yet. I hope this changes.

Anyway, on my floral BEO I had a $75.00 charge to refresh my bouquet for the MK photos and a new bout. for Bobby that would be 20.00. I didn't want to pay 95.00 for a refreshed bouquet when I could use that money for something else and I knew I could make one, so I did and I thought I would share pictures.


Basically I made a similar bouquet to my real one that I will have at the wedding. I made it much smaller and I changed the ribbon around a bit but it is still similar. I used to be a florist so it wasn't that much of a challenge for me. This bouquet only cost me 20.00 to make which is better than 75.00!

I am going to use it for the MK photos but I am also going to use it for my at home reception to toss.

Here are some pictures.

http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g229/Dancefever1978/weddingstuff006.jpg
http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g229/Dancefever1978/weddingstuff007.jpg
http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g229/Dancefever1978/weddingstuff003-1.jpg

I think it works for its purpose. Rose will be taking away my bouquet later in the wedding day to deliver to keepsake floral so I needed something for the MK photos.


These are gorgeous! I'm looking for someone to do my flowers. I know you have a lot to do, but if I paid you will you do one for me for my Feb wedding as well? I know it's a lot to ask and you can totally say no!

[XxStaceFacexX]

Thank you!! :goodvibes



Thank you so much! I will be sure to share all of the pictures I have of my stuff! :thumbsup2



Aww thank you! I was happy with how they turned out.



Thanks April!!



HAHA Thats right we do both have Roberts except yours is a Rob and mine is a Bob. :rotfl: the font he used didn't really come up too clear on the mugs though but you can still see our names. I think the font is really pretty! I am sure it looked beautiful on your programs!



Thank you!! I hope they do love them as much as I do!!



Thanks Vanessa! I will be there when you are there!! I am there from January 31-Feb. 12th. We have to meet up!!



Thanks Lindsay!!!



Thank you!!! They really did come out very nice. They were worth the wait.



Thanks!! Its so much work packaging them up. Thank goodness I don't have like 100 guests..:rotfl: I did 8 of them last night. I figure a little every night if I can then I should be good.



Thank you so much!! He is very good at drawing. I wish he could get published in a paper or something.



Thank you!!



Thanks!! I am sure he would be more than happy to draw for anyone here!!! He loves to draw! :goodvibes

I second that! I'll hire him for the drawing and you for my flowers!

[DisneyBrideToni]

OMG! My fiance is batman obsessed too!! He wants to name our first son Bruce Wayne lol .. the prices we pay lol.. Can you tell me where you found the cufflinks and garter?

LOL. I got them from Ebay. I just typed in Batman wedding and the garter came up then I just put in Batman Cufflinks and those popped up. They had different kinds too. LOL I don't know if you want me to do your flowers. I am really not that good....:rotfl: I just kind of whipped that together.

So I just booked Carolyn Allens on Monday. I called up and spoke with a very nice gentlemen, can't recall his name but he was very nice. So I guess you can book them a month out with no problems. They did have another steaming scheduled that day at 9am so they have to come to my room at 7am. WOW! My dress is silk taffeta which needs to be pressed and not steamed. Apparently I have a high maintenance dress. Who knew.

My bridal shower is next Saturday, January 10th. I can't wait. It should be fun. I will be sure to have pics to post.

My bachlorette party is set for January 17th. We are going to Atlantic City to the Borgata. My favorite casino. I will take pics and post that for you all as well.

I finished my programs. They came out great. I changed the paper on them to do a sort of green floral type of thing. Here are the pictures. I love the basket. I actually added crystals to the bows by using antique earrings that my grandmother passed down to me. I wanted to add a little crystal sparkle to match up with the crystals I have on my head table. Gotta love bling!

In all seriousness - it looks like you had a great shower and a wonderful time!:goodvibes It seems like it was just yesterday that we were saying that you were 90 days out - I can't believe how close it is for you! Wow!

And how is everything going btw?:hug:

[DisneyFairy19]

WOW Toni you got so many gifts... GOOD FOR YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[DisneyBrideToni]

Looks like you had fun at your shower!

It was so much fun! I want it to happen all over again. :rotfl:

How fun! Looks like it was a great time!

Wonderful time! I have been to so many showers I couldn't believe I was at my own!

Looks like you had a great time! And look at all of those presents, LOL!

I know!!! I couldn't believe how generous everyone was!

Aww, your shower pics look so nice!! I saw the Kitchen Aid box... is that a mixer???? That's the #1 thing on my registry that I'm hoping to get!!!

I think the box was my food processor but I DID get the mixer and I am so excited about it. I think its my favorite gift!!

I want to be there!!!

I am so glad you had such a wonderful time!! And of course I am now hungry...which is not good since I am on my diet!! lol

I had a great time! You should be having a shower soon. You are getting closer!!

Wow, Toni! You made out like a bandit! Looks like you had a wonderful time... :)

LOL I did! I couldn't believe it. I had a great day!

Aww Toni look at all your gifts! Good for you and Bobby. You look so cute with your hat lol! Your cake was cute!

You're almost there my friend :) So happy for you!

LOL Now I just need to organize everything which means less Animal Crossing time! :scared1: It is getting close. I can't believe its like 19 days left.

It looks like you had a great time! I love the wishing well idea; I've been to showers where they have you bring a recipe, but never the spices, etc. how cool :thumbsup2

Looks like you had a great shower and you two were blessed with lots of wonderful presents!

I do feel blessed. We have great families. I feel very lucky. The wishing well was great! I did get recipes too which I loved but for some reason everyone put a bunch of spices. Someone even gave me about 8 different flavored sea salts. :laughing:

Wow Toni! Looks like you had a wonderful time and got some awesome gifts! You are getting so close.

It was a wonderful time! It is getting so close! I am getting anxious for it to get here now!!

First off - thank you for posting pictures of the outside so I can remember what the ground looks like :rotfl:

And how is everything going btw?:hug:

:lmao: I am glad I could help with the outside for you! Sometimes I forget what the ground looks like so I thought I would help everyone out! :rotfl:

It was a wonderful time AND I am happy to report that on Saturday I stayed over Bobby's and I LOVED it. I actually didn't want to go home so I guess I am over my moving out thing. I was so excited to throw out all his stuff and bring in OUR stuff.

WOW Toni you got so many gifts... GOOD FOR YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

YAY my twin!!! I couldn't believe how much stuff I got. I was so surprised. I get to meet up with you and Geancarlo soon!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :banana:

[DisneyBrideToni]

Just a bunch of randomness

Ok I have about 2 weeks left and I have all these darn thoughts of what I have to do left in my mind.

What I have left: At least I hope this is all I have left!

:upsidedow Pick up my dress (today!)
:upsidedow Pack up all of the wedding items (favors, decorative things I am bringing)
:upsidedow Makes lists of what I am bringing and where everything is suppose to go for Celeste and Rose.
:upsidedow Pack
:upsidedow Clean up our future home and get it ready for when we come back (I really don't want to do that when I come back..lol)
:upsidedow Finish packaging up my favors
:upsidedow Get my dress and accessories all ready
:upsidedow Write out thank you notes and send them out. (the only reason I am doing this is so that I can include instructions on how to view our webcast).
:upsidedow Call STVS and schedule a time where Bobby and I are going to do our courtship story
:upsidedow Confirm with Beaute Speciale and Carolyn Allen's to make sure they still have me scheduled. (this is my ocd I have to make sure everyone is on track)...lol
:upsidedow make sure I have all contact info in my cell phone and in my wedding binder.

hmm...thats about it I guess. Seems worse in my head. :rotfl:

Yesterday I spoke with Rev. Jack Day. This has always been a worry of mine that he would not have us scheduled because all I ever did was speak with him by email (which is totally my fault) and the emails are always vague. So yesterday I finally called him and he kept calling me Jennifer which freaked me out but it turns out he was just messing with me and had us all scheduled for the ceremony and rehearsal so that was a HUGE weight off of me to have that taken care of.

Also, I spoke with Disney floral to set up something special for our wedding night. See, Bobby has been to Disney before but actually never did anything while he was there (strange I know) so I am trying to make this trip very special for him since its basically his "first time" where he will actually experience Disney. So I ordered the "From Mickey and Minnie with Love" package with Disney floral. Its really nice. Here is the description they give you on the website.

From the moment you step into your Walt Disney World resort room, you step into a world of romance, experiencing all the magic Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse have arranged just for you! They heard congratulations were in order, so they turned back the bed and sprinkled rose petals on the sheets and chocolates on your pillows. Cozy bath towels, specially embroidered with your names, are draped across the foot of the bed and a spa basket for two sits waiting for you.

On the table nearby, a splash of castle confetti, a dozen pixie-dusted roses, and a custom-matted photo of Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse stands to congratulate you. Then, for the final touch, three magically lit candles are scattered about to set the mood for romance – and, if you look closely, you’ll find Tinker Bell. spreading a little magic too! All of this is not only meant for you to enjoy – every piece has been selected for you to take home … with love.

I want to say this package is $265.00 but I am not 100% sure since I totally forgot.

Also, while I was on the phone she said that they now offer personalized robes to match the towels for an extra $100.00 so I said well you might as well I mean if I am spending that much whats an extra $100.00 plus I am a robe freak...:rotfl: so the total was $365.00 (i am pretty sure) plus tax and stuff like that it came out to over $400.00. I am just praying that they do it since I have heard a few girls here say that things weren't delivered.

Oh here is the link to the website too. http://www.disneyflorist.com/product/waltdisneyworldflorist-Disney-Celebration-Romance-Mickey-Minnie-Anniversary-Engagement-Honeymoon-Rose/display

Also, news about my nerves...LOL. As many of you know I posted previously about my nerves about moving and flying. Well I stayed over Bobby's last weekend and I LOVED it. It was great to be there and I didn't want to leave so I guess I am over that...:rotfl: Plus after moving in all of our shower gifts I felt at home since things were now OURS and not just HIS. It was nice throwing out HIS stuff. :lmao: Plus, I have some xanax for the plane so I am set with that..:lmao: So everything seems to be coming along nicely. The time went by fast but now its seems these last 2 weeks are dragging!!!!

[Lynn5700]

Toni you know this already cause I told you lol... but I will say it again. I'm so happy you loved spending the weekend at Bobbys. glad you got your nerve pills too girl.


I think it is a good idea to get your home ready before you get back from Disney that way you don't have to worry about it.

The floral package is so sweet. Bobby will love it!

[Mrsdisneyb2b]

Okay so you have just put me in debt 300.00 more ahhaha
That is wonderful that you want to do something so special for both him and your honeymoon. I think I will be surprising df with this as well now, I cant wait to see how your pictures look...

I wonder how they do that though is it the night you are there or when you first get there...etc... I want to make sure I am out of the room when they do it so I'll have to arrange some dinner plans that night!!1

Do not worry about moving in with him. I see you are waiting like me until you are married. We were lucky, we built our home from scratch by gutting everything so we got to pick everything out togheter. Although it is in HIS house I am still a little worried... the crazy bugger he is wants to have me move all my things in before I am there!! we still have six months...

So YAY for the dress today!!! That must be so so so exciting..... I cant wait to hear more!!

[jennifaerie]

It's wonderful that you enjoyed staying with him, as you're going to be doing it for a long time!

I went backwards and moved in prior to the wedding, so there was none of that excitement (and dread) since we got it over with already. :rotfl:

I can't believe it's really two weeks! We'll be leaving Disney as you're getting there!

[MegKate]

Yeah thanks for that 300.00 more in the hole Toni!! :rotfl: That package is neato - I shall have to invest in October. :thumbsup2

I'm really glad that you're feeling better about the move - I loved moving HIS stuff out too - he had all this black stuff. It looked like a morgue. Out it all went! :lmao:

[irisbud]

That sounds like an awesome gift, Toni! I'm glad you enjoyed staying in the new house; I'm sure that will make you feel a lot better about making your big move! I'm with you on cleaning the house before you go: I hate coming home to a mess, it just makes it even more depressing!

I like your list! Just wait until you start checking things off, it's a great feeling!

Oh, and it is so cool that you are going to do a webcast of your ceremony! If we had thought of something like that ahead of time we may have done that as well. How neat for all the people who won't get to be there to still get to share your special day with you!

You are getting so close now!

[anewmac]

well you seem all set. wow 2weeks how exciting. SO you gonna give us a link for the webcast LOL

[Flurbee]

Toni,

Wow, I can't believe how close you are now!! I know I say that everytime I write...Your shower looked like so much fun! Congrats on a good time, and how awesome that you got so many gifts!! I reallly like that special gift you are going to have for Bobby, now I am going to have to do that for Jake! So, you play Animal Crossings? Jake's sister LOVES that game, that's too funny!! Can't wait to see your pics! :)

[DisneyBrideToni]

Toni you know this already cause I told you lol... but I will say it again. I'm so happy you loved spending the weekend at Bobbys. glad you got your nerve pills too girl.


I think it is a good idea to get your home ready before you get back from Disney that way you don't have to worry about it.

The floral package is so sweet. Bobby will love it!

thank you Lynn!! Bobby told me to tell you that if you don't get your butt on Animal Crossing he is deleting you from his friends....LMAO :rotfl:

So YAY for the dress today!!! That must be so so so exciting..... I cant wait to hear more!!

LOL sorry to put you in debt but it will be worth it!! They actually give you options of what time you want them to come out and set it up. They did say that you can't do it the first night that you check in because it is harder for them to find you in the resort. Luckily DF is staying in our room the night before with his best man so I don't have to worry about that but I don't understand why they wouldn't be able to find you..:confused3 :lmao: I will be sure to take pics and give a full report on it for you though!!

It's wonderful that you enjoyed staying with him, as you're going to be doing it for a long time!

I went backwards and moved in prior to the wedding, so there was none of that excitement (and dread) since we got it over with already. :rotfl:

I can't believe it's really two weeks! We'll be leaving Disney as you're getting there!

I can't believe how close it is either!!!!! Its getting exciting. Wow it went by so fast. Oh and I wanted to tell you I love your siggie picture with the white mickey top hat!!!

Yeah thanks for that 300.00 more in the hole Toni!! :rotfl: That package is neato - I shall have to invest in October. :thumbsup2

I'm really glad that you're feeling better about the move - I loved moving HIS stuff out too - he had all this black stuff. It looked like a morgue. Out it all went! :lmao:

LMAO!! :rotfl: Sorry about that! It will be worth it!!! I will take pictures and report on it for you. Thanks for all your help with my anxiety. What you and the other girls said really helped me out so much! :hug:

That sounds like an awesome gift, Toni! I'm glad you enjoyed staying in the new house; I'm sure that will make you feel a lot better about making your big move! I'm with you on cleaning the house before you go: I hate coming home to a mess, it just makes it even more depressing!

You are getting so close now!

Wow you are next week!!!!!!! I am so excited for you!!!!!! I hope your list is going down now! It will all be worth it in the end. Yay for your wedding! :cool1:

well you seem all set. wow 2weeks how exciting. SO you gonna give us a link for the webcast LOL

Oh I will definitely post the link and instructions for everyone! It would be nice to have my fellow Disboard friends watch!!!

Bachlorette Party (Atlantic City)

I thought that I would share some of my "tame" bachlorette party pictures :rotfl: .

We went to Atlantic City. First we stopped at the Borgata which is my favorite casino plus they have an awesome buffet and then we went over to Harrahs. I didn't win any money but still had a blast. I had a bunch of well wishes and one drunk guy that screamed "Don't do it!!!". Dork. :rotfl2:

So anyway, here are a few of my pics.

So I have 2 weeks left now and I still have a bunch of stuff to do. I don't feel motivated to do any of it. On top of that I have to ward off all these germs around me. Why do people insist on going to work sick?!!! I don't get it. My list that I previously posted still looks the same so I won't give an update on that. Thats about all for now!

[Carye]

Sounds like you had a good time! Only two weeks left...how exciting! I hear you about the people coming to work sick, working as a hairstylist we get the sick clients all the time (just because you stayed home from work today doesn't make it a great opportunity to get into the salon). I wish you all the vitamin C and immunity you can find...load up on the airborne, it saves me during the worst seasons...Good Luck!! Can't wait to hear more :goodvibes

[Keira1387]

It was so much fun in Atlantic City. We need to go!! Your town on AC probably looks like a mess!! LOL. You have to pluck some weeds! I told Bobby I don't want to see what our town looks like after the honeymoon. I was trying to get him to take the Wii so we can play in Disney (yes sick I know) but he is to afraid the Wii might break or get lost on a plane.

your bachelorette pics rock! You look like you had so much fun! 2 weeks! Thats nuts! Did your DF have a bachelor party the same night?

2 more weeks! I can't believe it! My DF sort of had a party that same night. He just went out to dinner with his Best Man. In Disney his best man, brother and the other guys are all going to do something and watch the super bowl. :cheer2:

[Angela0917]

Looks like you girls had so much fun at your bachelorette party!! You are so close!! I can't wait for you to get back with some wedding pics!!

[padisneyfour]

You look like you had a great time in AC! congrats and best wishes with everything:goodvibes

[tiggersam00]

I just realized you are getting married the day after the superbowl this year, and I will be getting married the dya after the superbowl in 2010! I couldnt wait to read about your big day before, now I am even more excited b/c it is the same time as mine will be next year! Yay for February!:cheer2:

[DisneyBrideToni]

Oh wow!!! How cool is that! What day does that fall on next year? I was getting a lot of complaints from my family since the Eagles were in the playoffs. They told me if they won and went to the super bowl I would have a bunch of drunk people at my wedding because they were all going to go to the super bowl. Now that they lost I have no worries. :rotfl2:

Oh wow, can you image if they made it! My family would probably say the same if the Pats made it! We have even decided to have the rehearsal dinner as a tailgate lunch... just in case the Pats make it in 2010.
The Monday after the superbowl in 2/8/10 next year, so hoepfully i can book stuff with WDW in 2 1/2 weeks, then I can breath a sigh of relief!:lmao:
We were worried that flights would be a ton of money to MCO because of the superbowl being in Tampa (it's in Miami next year, a little further then Tampa anyways) but it seems to be ok when I have checked airfair prices... were your prices reasonable for guests?

Actually the flights were pretty good. They were 134.00 round trip. Of course we are all flying out on Spirit Airlines which is a pretty cheap airline. Our seats which I guess would be their first class (they are larger seats with more leg room) were only $109.00! I guess we caught them on a good day! A tailgate party sounds like fun!! I think thats a great idea.

[Crown_princess]

It's almost here!!! :cheer2:

I want to say don't get nervous, but I think that is sort of impossible!:goodvibes

I'm getting nervous and I still have 9 weeks!:rotfl:

[DISNEYMAGIC2005]

It looks like you had a great Bachelorette party. I live in MD and have only been to AC once. Try to keep away from all of the crazy people who come to work sick. I sub in a child care center sometimes but I told everyone that I was going to wear a face mask the entire month before I get married. Cute little kids... but soo many germs!

[DisneyBrideToni]

Toni,

WOO HOO!! You are so close!! :cheer2: I am so excited for you. Ok, so now I have to buy a Wii, so I can play Animal Crossing with you!! LOL. I think Jake's sister plays it on something else. Your BP looked like fun!! Can't wait for you to get back so I can see your pics!!

Toni,

YAY! Thank you so much!!!! It seems the cold will be gone when we get there. I am fine with that because its been freezing here in Jersey so it will be nice to have some 70 degree weather!

Toni,

I hate the weather!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am so annoyed. When the forecast finally became available for February 2nd it said it was going to be sunny and in the 70's. Last night it said on weather.com that there is going to be a 60% chance of showers and in the 60's. Then another website says its going to be sunny and in the 70's. Basically 3 websites say its NOT going to rain and 3 websites say it IS going to rain.

I am just going to guess that a "shower" means an occasional light sprinkle that may pass from time to time as opposed to "rain" which means an all day event. At least I hope thats what it means. If it rains the whole thing will be ruined since everything is practically outside. Grr. I hate the weather!!!! :mad: :sad:

[tlhbdm]

Awwwww...Toni I am so sorry. I will say a prayer for you that is doesn't rain. It'll all be ok, in the end though you will be married. When do you leave?

[DisneyFairy19]

Toni dont stress, they said there would be scattered thunderstorms on my wedding day and it was a GORGEOUS DAY... dont worry love.. it will be Beautiful

all of us will be sending you some Pixie dustpixiedust:

Toni dont stress, they said there would be scattered thunderstorms on my wedding day and it was a GORGEOUS DAY... dont worry love.. it will be Beautiful

all of us will be sending you some Pixie dustpixiedust:

Really!! That makes me feel better!! I am hoping that if it does rain its either really early in the morning or really late at night..:lmao: Your wedding day was beautiful so I am hoping for the same!

[Lynn5700]

Toni do not worry! I know your day will be gorgeous! The weather is always changing so you never know..the forecast might change. No worries.

[DisneyBrideToni]

Toni do not worry! I know your day will be gorgeous! The weather is always changing so you never know..the forecast might change. No worries.

You are so correct! I just checked the weather channel online again and now it says it will be partly cloudy with a 10% chance of rain and now its supposed to have showers the next day. Geez. I just want all of this to be over soon! :rotfl:

[disneygal922]

Toni, I can't beleive you are only a week away!! :cool1: Your wedding will be gorgeous regardless if it rains! And like everyone else said, the weather is pretty unpredictable and you probably won't know until you wake up the day of! AND I've seen in pics of other brides, DFTW has these huge black golf umbrellas. It makes for some cute "singing in the rain"-esque pics! :flower3: so no worries, It will be beautiful! :goodvibes

[PrincessNewsie]

You are so close, I can't believe it, I remember coming on here when I first got engaged and everything seemed so far off 9 months ago.

Good luck with the weather and I'm sure, no matter what, it will be such a memorable incredible fairy tale day!

Don't worry about the weather, I am sure it will be a beautiful day!!! I am throwing some pixie dust your way!!pixiedust:

Toni,
Maybe this will help you look at things in a different perspective...

DF and I met and it was raining. Our first date it was pouring. Every time we went away, Tropical storms, the first time we went to maine, it was flooded the first time in 55 years...Engagement, rain lol

So, we kept saying that on our wedding it will probably rain. We mentioned this to fmil and she said, Let me show you something...

She then brought our her wedding pictures. It POURED (As it was in august) and the pictures are just breathtaking.

They've been married for 35 years now, and she said to me
"If you cant make the best on a rainy day then you won't know how to handle your marriage"

It really made me take a step back and realize, that she was right. So now, we are hoping for rain on our wedding day... I know itwould stink but, its the truth. I've also decided on a second dress and I promise u i will run into the puddles if necessary to wake myself up and drag myself out of the slump...

Hope that helped you a little. I know it would stink. I am also going to say a prayer that you dont get rain!
Jenny

[anewmac]

will hope for no rain but if a lil comes make it in the am .. this way you get good luck and it gets out of the way... but really hoping for the no rain for yoU!!!!!!!

[tiggersam00]

I agree with jenny, my grandmother always said rain on the wedding day was good luck :) It poured at my parents wedding (funny story, it actually started pouring right after she got in the limo, her dad had gone back to house so it was her and the limo driver for 45 mins!, He ended up coming to the recpetion lol!) and they have been married for 27 years.
You know FL weather though, I have gone and had rain on the forcsat for the whole week and only had a few sprinkles :)
I'll keep my fingers and toes crossed for you anyways:thumbsup2

[figmentfan814]

Don't worry about it, as so many of the wonderful ladies on here have said your wedding will be beautiful no matter what type of weather you have that day. Just concentrate on the things that you need to finish before you leave and leave the rest up to fate. Just think in exactly one week you'll be officially married even if it rains pixiedust: :cheer2:

[Lindsay22]

Toni, I'm putting on my poncho and doing a rain dance for you. It rained EARLY on the morning of Caryn's wedding... she didn't even know until after the wedding was over. The worst thing that will happen is that you get a little bit wet and then have super fun pictures with an umbrella!!
(I'm sure Caryn will be happy to crystalize a poncho for you)

Thank you ladies!!!! I am feeling better. The forecasts now seem to be much better. I am not really worried about getting wet and those umbrella shots would be really cool, but I am just worried I won't get to have the carriage and my dessert party outside which would really annoy me. Now it seems that the weather will be pretty good according to the weather channel and my favorite WESH news. It may rain at night but other than that it seems it will be clear during the day. :thumbsup2

Tonight I will have better stuff to report on! :cheer2:

A crystalized poncho would be fabulous!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :cool1: :goodvibes :rotfl2:

[DisneyBrideToni]

It's the Final Countdown!!!
(love that song by the way) :cool1:

Ok so on to other news besides weather, which by the way has changed at least 5 times since my initial rain forecast. (we now have sunnys skies).

So this is my final week as a single girl. I told Bobby that was depressing and he said well if I want I can have all the single weeks I want if I feel that way. :rotfl2: of course we were just joking.

So the nerves are starting to come on strong now. I haven't eaten much today because my stomach feels like its doing backflips. Partially because of the wedding, partially because of the plane and partially because I am a nut.

Ok so here are some things that I haven't posted on. I had a situation with my favors for the kids. I WAS, upon Bobby's suggestion, going to give the kids a mug and some hot cocoa but I ran out of cocoa. I couldn't get anymore since its from Disney and well, I am not near Disney so I had to think of something else. So we were totally stumped as to what we could do for the kids.

Anyway, a Super Walmart just opened near us and we went to the toy section checking the aisles for something that we can give the kids. They are all different ages so it was hard but we finally decided on the following gifts.

For the 12, 11 and 16 year olds we got these 20 questions game. Its so cool. You think of something, anything and answer the questions the little game asks you. It can actually figure out what you were thinking. Pretty cool. It should occupy them for about an hour. They were $8.00 each.

Then for the 7 year old we got a magna doodle. We thought it would entertain her for a little while during the reception.

Then we got some bags to wrap them up in and I put little labels on them to identify them for the kids.

Here are some pictures my mom took of me packaging them.

http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g229/Dancefever1978/weddingstuff001-2.jpg
http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g229/Dancefever1978/weddingstuff002-3.jpg

http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g229/Dancefever1978/weddingstuff005.jpg

Hopefully they like them. So I packed everything up last night and made labels for the boxes. I was told by my planner to make sure all of the items are in boxes seperated (ceremony stuff, reception stuff) so I have one lonely box for the ceremony which is only holding the programs and program basket.

http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g229/Dancefever1978/weddingstuff008-1.jpg

Then I have 2 boxes for the reception. I have a list which tells the planner what is in each box and where everythig should go because I am anal like that. :lmao:

http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g229/Dancefever1978/weddingstuff007-1.jpg
http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g229/Dancefever1978/weddingstuff006-1.jpg

I also confirmed with all the vendors today to make sure they still had me scheduled since I haven't talked to most since last summer. Everything is a go with them.

All that is left to do now is pack my clothes. I am a slacker when it comes to that area. It will get done eventually.

So here is the latest weather reports since I am still obsessing.

From weather.msn.com: PM Drizzle. High 69, Low 53
From weather.com: Partly Cloudy, High 72, Low 49 10% chance of rain
From accuweather.com: mainly cloudy with showers possible, High 71, Low 52.
From wesh.com: Partly Cloudy, High 71, Low 46.

So from these forecasts I have determined that it will not rain, if it does it will be for a very short time and I am kind of happy about the the partly cloudy weather because I heard that kind of weather makes for good pictures.

So that is my update. I don't know how many more updates I will have before I leave on Saturday but this was pretty long so here you go...:lmao:

[pink_tink8i8]

I just look organized! Its all a mirage of my unorganized mess!! :rotfl2:

Toni, great gifts for the kids/teens... everything looks wonderful!:goodvibes

Thank you so much!!! I am hoping they at least entertain the kids for an hour. If it does that then I am happy. :rotfl2:

Toni, I hope I am as organized as you are when my date rolls around. How are your boxes getting to Florida? Are they flying too or are you shipping them? I can't believe you are so close! I remember when I first joined the Weddings board and your PJ was just starting!!!! Wow, time really does fly by! :flower3:

Aww I am sure you will be!! I am actually VERY lucky to have family driving down. My aunt is bringing down my favors and my mom is bringing my dress and accessories. If I didn't have family, I was going to ship it down to Florida ahead of time. Time really does fly by!!!!! I feel like I was just 6 months away not that long ago!

You just gave me the best idea ever!
I am going to find clear ponchos and write Just Married on the inside with Permanant marker (Backwards of course) for the HM!!!!

OMG that would be great!! I can't take credit for the idea though. It was all Lindsay's idea! I think you guys should team up and start a wedding day poncho company!!! That would be great! :cheer2:

Haha too funny, you could bedazzle one just in case:lmao:

LOL I need a matching umbrella though. Hopefully in my colors! :lmao:


You girls are all great!!! You all take my mind over my stresses and anxiety. Thank you so much!

[Carye]
