Hi! Yes, the engagement party went very well, the confession not so much...but oh well Life is funny. Thanks, I am super excited about the dress!
Hello ladies!!
I just finished my midterms and now have time to get back into thinking about the wedding! This is just a mini-update, though, so don't get too excited.
I am an active member on the Knot (great wedding planning tools!) and saw that one of the girls on my local board posted that she was going to use "Wedding Poppers" for her exit after her and her DH were announced and leaving to go to the reception:
I did a little Googling and fell in love. Here's a picture:
Doesn't it look fun? I think it would make for some cheery pictures too.
Then I got to thinking... you all know that I am a self-professed glitter lover ... I would absolutely love it if everyone threw glitter at us. BUT, the voice of reason inside me says that this would be super messy and get everywhere (not a bad thing, IMO.. but FI might not like it.. ).
What does everyone think about the glitter-- too messy and crazy, or fun? What about streamers vs. glitter?
I've also emailed my beloved wedding planner to ask if either would be allowed so that clearly plays a role.
In other news, tomorrow (10/14) is our 1 Year Engagement Anniversary!! It's crazy to think that it's already been a year. This time next year we will be super close to the wedding!
I hope things are well with everyone! Thanks for reading along-- there isn't too much to read, I know, but I appreciate each of you!
Glad to hear it!Hi! Yes, the engagement party went very well, the confession not so much...but oh well Life is funny. Thanks, I am super excited about the dress!
I told you I have a glitter problem!! I'll look into the metallic confetti- that's a great idea!!Oh my goodness, Faith--Sparkly things!!!
What about throwing sequins or metallic confetti? They wouldn't be as messy as glitter, but they're still sparkly!!!
Thanks!! I hope we can use it or find something just as sparkly!Such a cute idea! Fun fun fun too. Being glitter obsessed I think this would make a wonderful addition to your big day! Plus your guests will love it.
So glad you like the zoo outfits!! We wanted something fun!I loooveee your zoo outfit! It's ADORABLE! <3
And your sand ceremony vase was quite a steal. I agree with you about BP--- if people get offended, oh well. They can get over it.
I'm glad you get to go see Mickey so soon! I -wish- I lived in driving distance!
Ahh!! Too cool! Maybe we'll have to meet up that day!We're gonna be at Food and Wine the same day!!! I hope I get to see you!!!
Hi lovie! I think you look great!! And it's an "ugly sweater"?? I actually really liked it and so did my mom!! If you want me to switch out the picture, just tell me which one!Yah!! I really am so excited! Although I'm not crazy about the picture you chose! lol I had serious red eye and was going to an ugly sweater party, hence the outfit just kidding! so very excited for the engagement photos!! I know they're going to turn out great! and I love that you're taking them at the zoo! I hope you have tons of fun at Disney!!

Love the vase! Great buy!
Have fun at Food & Wine. We will just miss you. We are going to be there on Wednesday the 9th. We will be on the Disney Dream for the weekend.
Getting excited. Just did on-line check-in.
Thanks Victoria!!Love the safari outfit ideas for your engagement shoot - i bet they will look great
When I asked Karen she told me you could pretty much throw whatevver you want. Mickey confetti is a good idea too!! I wonder where you can get that...? Party City?Ohh, great idea with the poppers. I didn't realize that we were allowe to toss stuff. I've been considering Mickey confetti for a while now but didn't think it would be allowed. I didn't realize that the Food & Wine fest is that weekend! Woohooo! We'll be there too for our Il Mulino menu tasting. Maybe we'll see each other walking around the swan!
You are a genius!! Great idea!!Hey! If you can't find a safari hat, you could always pop over to Animal Kingdom (or maybe even Animal Kingdom Lodge) when you're down here and see if they have one!
Thanks Chilly!!That's a really cute dress.

I am a student studying to become a Social Studies teacher but my passion really lies in Reading. I graduate 2 WEEKS before the wedding eek and hope to get a job, then go to grad school to get my Master's in Reading Education. I love to think about Disney, go to Disney, talk about Disney, etc. When I'm not busy with that or school, I like to read, talk about Harry Potter love watch movies, pretend that I am a good scrapbooker, and sing in my car shamelessly, dancing included.
