How we met: Well we met back when I was still in high school. We would always hang out at the ice rink in town and his friend ended up bringing him even though he didnt really want to go. lol. Then he said he met me and kept going back every weekend. I was dating someone else at the time, of course. lol He kept going and the person I was with wasnt the best BF if you know what I mean. lol Anyways... I started talking to Matthew and instantly fell in love. We have been inseperable ever since.

Here is a picture of us a few years down the road when he graduated from college.

Well we have been together for about 9 years now and finally decided to get married. Our family has always been huge disney fans. We were planning a vacation at Disney World next year and we both decided why not get married at the happiest place on earth! So we figured have the vacation/honeymoon/wedding all in one place! And so the planning begins!!!

We called Disney after doing some research on everything. Our planner called us back the next day. We are now talking with Pam Pearce. She is a sweetheart from what i hear on her messages hehe. I work late so its hard to get in contact. We are planning on have the wedding in May of next year!! Here it goes!

Date: May 4th 2010
Time: 2:30pm
Location: Sea Breeze Point
Reception: Yatchsmans Steakhouse
Dessert Party: Having one but not sure on location yet. ;)

Deciding a budget and paying it off can be scary - but there are lots of ways to keep things cheap ;) You'll do it honey :hug: That dress is gorgeous!! I love it :love:

We sat down and wrote down how much everything would be and when it was due. We then budgeted how much we could afford each month. We are feeling really good about paying for the wedding and even more important I now know we can save for a house next year.

That dress is beautiful!!!

As the previous poster suggested, it's best to write everything down.
From January to September next year we will be paying bits off each month, so we know exactly whats going out and when.

That dress is lovely and you are both stunning people.

CassIS300
08-27-2009, 05:04 PM
Yeah I really like that one too...the teal white and black really pop out at you....very hip and modern too which is what I like..

Anyways...I dont actually start planning with the planner until Sept so forgive me for lack of information on the first page and throughout the thread. I am gathering ideas for right now. Getting some color ideas looking at jewlery. Ya know how that goes.

If anyone has any suggestions on color that would be awesome too. Thanks for all the support here, everyone is super nice!

Also did anyone request more information off of the Disney World website for a brochure and dvd but only got the brochure? I didnt get a dvd.. kinda bummed I was lookin forward to watchin it..

08-29-2009, 11:21 AM
These are the invitations we bought as a kit but then I put my own dinsey touch to it... We found this mickey hole punch and I was like awesome! And then I found the little mickey head jewels in black and silver.

Of course this isnt our names this is just the demo to see what it would look like... I am thinking about adding a turquoise bow instead of the gray one to add some pop. I was also going to use the disney font instead of the formal looking font... Kit comes with RSVP cards and envelopes and all. Here are some pics I took...Let me know what you think....

Ha! I almost feel like we are wedding twins or something! :lmao: I have been looking around at dresses and there were two at Alfred Angelo that I really really liked - that is one of them! Also, we have the same engagement ring! The only difference is that the 3 stones on top of mine are emerald cut instead of princess cut.

I have to say, if you liked the dress in the picture, I thought it was much lovelier in person. It wasn’t even one that I picked out, my sister did and made me try it on, once it was on I really liked it. Its very flattering.

Pirate's Princess
08-30-2009, 11:23 AM
How large are the charms? I'd pick the one that's smaller. While it seems like the second one is bigger, that's not necessarily true. I agree with you about having a necklace over powering the dress, so that's my decision making tip.

Well the bottom one is actually pretty big and thats why I didnt really know about it.. Yeah I really just would like a necklace with one single diamond hanging from it but I figure this would add a disney touch to it and I didnt really want to get something someone else had.

I really like your invitations. And your ring is lovely. I think I may have tried on that Alfred Angelo dress as well, so pretty :thumbsup2

I agree, I like the first one, simplier. I also found this on ebay, it incorprates the Disney touch you wanted with a simple diamond.

Just a thought. Although I'm not sure if it would be too small.

Okay not to sound like a stalker, but that is so awesome you are from Cedar Park! It's nice to find another Disbride who is from the same area. I live down in the Arboretum, but still close!

I love all of your plans so far! I think turquoise would definitely be one of my colors if I wasn't so stuck on fuchsia and orange!

Definitely subscribing! :thumbsup2

Oh awesome! Nah you dont sound like a stalker at all lol. Thats so funny were from the same area. Yeah I work close to where you live then...Off oak knoll. I dont know if you know where that is...

I love your blog...We both love the same wedding too. I wrote PrincessShae and told her what an inspiration she was for me, her wedding was perfect. Keep me updated on your wedding....

Love the E-ring pics. You are so creative! Love the ideas so far. Blue is my favorite color, so your inspirations pics are awesome!

That cake with the blue and black is to die for.

Jewelry on ebay is awesome. I've bought several pieces off of there from China for CHEAP! I did get a mickey key necklace like you posted a pic of - thinking that my DD would get to wear it, but it was huge when it got here! It looked like rapper bling! :rotfl:

Can't wait to read more...

Jewelry on ebay is awesome. I've bought several pieces off of there from China for CHEAP! I did get a mickey key necklace like you posted a pic of - thinking that my DD would get to wear it, but it was huge when it got here! It looked like rapper bling! :rotfl:

Can't wait to read more...

hehe Thanks! Yeah the blue and black cake is awesome... I know I want some colors that pop even pink and orange or fusha and teal.

Thats funny.... I didnt get it cause it did look like it was kinda on the big side. The one I bought you cant really tell what size it is but for 71 cents you cant beat it... I dont understand how they make money on that stuff...

Anyways... Here are some more inspiration colors... Let me know what you would pick, along with the ones I posted previously...

Are those Wedding Paper Divas? I actually wanted to get the invitations that were that same style but pink and orange! Now that I've changed my colors to pink and brown though I'm thinking of going a different route! :)

They're really cute though! I liked them a lot! :thumbsup2

Yeah they are from wedding paper divas. You should go with pink and orange. I love bright colors. It looks so good with the white dress and black tuxedos. Pink and brown are also a good combo though too. Sounds like your in a pickle! hehe

Thanks!

Well Last weekend I went to best buy to buy a power cord cable for my printer so I could start on the invitations. Welll drove there and they didnt have it and the guy said I would have to go and buy one from the manufacture. Which would be HP. So I thought I could find one on ebay...nope.... notta one. So I thought ok I will have to pay full price then and buy it from HP. I couldnt even find it from HP. I cant find the darn thing anywhere.

PS: This little angel chewed it up!

Anyways...if I cant find it, I may have to go a different route and have them made. But thats ok I can always go back to wedding paper divas if I cant find it. We will see how the search for the cord goes...

Also I have a lot of pics from the last trip at Disney world too that I was thinking I might post that ya'll might enjoy! :)

If I could PM you, I would.

Just a peice of advice from someone who has seen issues with this stuff-

You should really be careful to blur your last name on your invitations and remove your location from your avatar. I know you shouldn't have to think about this stuff, but I've learned in the past year or so that there's a lot of crazy out there reading the dis. While I wouldn't worry about anyone harming you, I would be concerned about being stalked all over the interwebs.

Good luck with your wedding planning, everything looks great and I'm sure you will be a beautiful bride. :)

Congratulations! You and your fiance are an adorable couple!
Love that dress. Love your ring.

And now some thoughts on things you posted. My opinion is just an opinion. It obviously doesn't matter what I like. But I'm going to be brutally honest. Don't hate me! LOL!


http://i132.photobucket.com/albums/q5/jetta18tgirl/Wedding/3430438747_cc6fab266c.jpg

The colors aren't bad. But whatever that feather thing is, is not cute.


http://i132.photobucket.com/albums/q5/jetta18tgirl/Wedding/large_image.jpg

I'd like this better if it were blue and brown instead of gray. The shade of blue is very nice though.


http://i132.photobucket.com/albums/q5/jetta18tgirl/Wedding/large_image1.jpg

I am not a fan of that one. The doves make it look kind of crazy and messy. Not very elegant.


http://i132.photobucket.com/albums/q5/jetta18tgirl/Wedding/large_image2.jpg

It's just too much of two colors. I think it needs an accent color added in

These are the invitations we bought as a kit but then I put my own dinsey touch to it... We found this mickey hole punch and I was like awesome! And then I found the little mickey head jewels in black and silver.

Of course this isnt our names this is just the demo to see what it would look like... I am thinking about adding a turquoise bow instead of the gray one to add some pop. I was also going to use the disney font instead of the formal looking font... Kit comes with RSVP cards and envelopes and all. Here are some pics I took...Let me know what you think....

Cute invitations. Subtle Disney-ish and classic looking.

Thank you!!

Here are some necklaces I found I thought they were pretty cute... Let me know what ya think...Its a way to add the disney touch ;)

I dont know about the second one though...I dont really like the chain...

They both look really chunky to me. Maybe it's the photo. But they look too big.

Oh awesome...Let me look at what they got...


I found this one I really like it kinda matches my ring!

http://i132.photobucket.com/albums/q5/jetta18tgirl/Wedding/PICT0001.jpg

Again, this one looks big too. I think once you put that dress on, you're going to want something a bit more dainty.

let me know what ya think.

I like the shade of pink in the first photo.
The hot pink in the third pink is too bright for my tastes. However, it's not too bad against the blue dress. I don't like it against the pink dress.

The cake isn't too bad. But if you were to add blue to it, it would be way too over the top. If you took out of green and maybe the orange too it would be okay with blue added into the mix. With too many colors it would look like a Skittles wedding.

http://i637.photobucket.com/albums/uu98/christine-enjoi/fruit-skittles-1.jpg

Very cute Save the Date cards!

Love all of the park photos. When were those taken? You're sad that the wand isn't there anymore? I was happy it wasn't there on our last trip. I never actually saw it in person, but I just wasn't a fan of that giant thing. LOL.

Well sorry I havent posted anything in a while. I have some bad news. Due to cost reasons for us and family members we have decided to have a local wedding instead of a disney one. :( I am not to bummed though. With the money I save I can have more money to make it custom and do it how I want it. But I will still keep you updated on everything.

On a positive note. My mom and brother flew out last week and stayed for a week so me and my mom could start doing some wedding shopping. I found my dress!!! I put the deposit on it and ordered it. I ended up buyin a alfred angelo dress. I tried on like 20 dresses at davids and none of them did for me. Felt cheap and they wanted the money in full to order it. Kinda weird. I would post a picof the dress but I am affraid my honey would go on here and see it. lol.

We also found the venue we are going to have it at. I have a couple of videos that I will post of other weddings so you can see the venue. Everything will be held there. Ceremony and reception.

Here is a couple videos of the venue. Both beautiful weddings:

You are very smart to do what you're doing. I honestly think that Disney is way over blown and their prices for what they offer is crazy.

You'll still be a princess for the day.

Yeah I agree. Only a few people would be able to go too. Since its local we can have everyone we want there.

Thats also something I didnt like was you kinda had to bend around their rules and I wanted it to be custom to what we like and our personality. I am very happy with my decision. :)
