I ordered the maps on the Disney site last time we went https://disneyworld.disney.go.com/wdw/myVacation/customizedMaps/index?id=CustomizedMapsFlashPage

they are totally free and they are really nice. it says your name on it and everything. (Make sure you use his last name when signing onto the site or it will be under yours) and we love them so much we framed them!
 
Love all the updates Katie! The hairpiece is phenomenal and the shoes will be so great with all the jewels- I can't wait to see the finished product (cuz maybe I'll make my own:lovestruc). The earrings are just perfect too! Sounds like your plans are coming together (despite all your indecisiveness). The customized maps would be awesome to put in your welcome bags- otherwise I'm sure your WC could send you some!
 
Yea definitely look into Tables in Wonderland. Especially if you and DFi plan to eat at TS places during your honeymoon, you will 100% get the $75 back and save a bunch!

Also be sure to scour dollar stores for glow sticks. That's where I got mine. In a couple months they will probably be packed with left over Fourth of July stock :thumbsup2 Target also occasionally has them in the dollar bins.

After i went and checked out that website i realized that i got those for DF on his very first trip to Disney in 2007! They were definatly nice and i think it would be cool to put in the welcome bags. :thumbsup2

Thanks Adelia! I can't wait to get that package in the mail! I might end up wearing that hairpiece around the house like i did my veil! :rotfl: I'm definatly going to post pictures of my "shoe bedazzling project"!! I can't wait to see how it comes out. nobody other than DS and me know about it so DF i'm sure is going to think i'm crazy when he sees them at the wedding! I'm sure i'll be able to get SOME kind of park map for guests from my WC if all else fails.

Yea i'm going to research that A LOT more! :surfweb: That would be awesome!

And there is an awesome dollar store and a walmart about 10 mins from me so when the time comes i'm definatly going over there to get glow sticks... they always jack up the prices at the party stores. :mad:
 
Happy Monday Ladies!!! :rolleyes:

I've been doing my research and i've decided that we're going to be staying at the Kidani Village area of AKV. I asked a few questions on the Resorts boards and found out that the layout of the AKV Jambo house and Kidani Village rooms are slightly different and that Kidani may be alittle more accesible to dresses, make up people, bridesmaids, and poor Randy. Rooster in the Hen house! :rotfl2: I've been going back and forth on whether or not to spend the extra $$$ to get a SV over a S view but where we'll only be there for a few days I think we'll stick with the cheaper. From my experience there are so many aniaml viewing areas around the resort that its not a huge loss.

i also think that i'm getting a better handle on my anxiety. (thank god!) there will be times that I am just SOOOO excited about the whole thing! I imagine the amazing photos of my in my gown at the AKV (so exotic) and the fun shots we'll get at the boardwalk (i really love the ones in the photobooth) and just how beautiful it'll be with just adam and I. :cloud9: But then on days like today, i got up and for whatever reason this feeling of just certain doom came over me. I started thinking about whose going to watch my doggies, what if something happens like a random hurricane, what if my dress gets lost in the mail, what if i decide to invite my mom and she ruins my day? :headache: Normally i let all of this get to me but i actually was able to calm myself down and get back into that excited state. I reminded myself that all the things i was worrying about was stuff that i would still be worrying about even if i had the wedding here. so yay for anxiety damage control! :lmao:

Hopefully i'll get my wedding stuff i ordered online today and i know that'll get me in a wicked psyched mood! :banana:

well done on calming yourself down my dear. I need to learn that trait I have been freaking out over stupid things lately. Glad you have settled on your room, thats one thing that doesn't have to bug you. I'm excited to see the new wedding stuff when it arrives so take lots of pics. Have a good day :)
 
Thanks hun!

It really is so easy to start letting little things and the "what if's" drive you crazy. so i'm glad i was able to calm myself! lol You'll be able to get to the point of wedding zen in no time!

I hope so! these boards are really helpful BUT makes me think i'm always majorly behind. I have less stuff picked/bought and less time :eek:
 
We are staying in Kidani for the second half of our vacation, I'm so excited!!! I think you will get AMAZING pictures there in your wedding gown. We won't be staying there for our wedding day (we will be at BC) but we booked Randy for a trash the dress shoot at Kidani (which probably will not longer involve trashing :rotfl:) just because it is so beautiful!

I am in the same situation as you...one day I'm so excited, the next day completely depressed. DF just keeps telling me that I can't give into them, or they win. Since we already don't like a lot of his family members, he just keeps saying if they do anything stupid on our wedding day, than we don't have to feel bad about not spending a moment with them in WDW, or talking to them after, lol.

I'm glad your plans are moving forward, and you picked a resort!
 
YAY!!! I am so excited you settled on AKV. Your pictures are going to be stunning! I love all the shots that I have seen from there. Df and I were talking about doing a shoot at AK but he says if we are going to spend the money, let's do MK.

Oh yea i forgot you were staying there too! I can't wait! :banana:

I'm glad i'm not the only one who goes through the highs and lows of wedding planning. The more i think about it though no matter where we planned it i'd be doing the same thing. Its still good to know i'm not alone! :goodvibes

I want atleast one of me in one of those rocking chairs in my gown! :wizard::rotfl2:

so to send a private message i need more posts this is stupid hahaha

:banana: this makes it ten! :yay:

You are such a goone! thanks for that PM by the way... i thought my new celly came in today but when i got to the post office to pick up the boxes one was for adam and the other was for me and it was my wedding stuff not my new cell. Very bitter sweet :rolleyes: incase you couldn't figure it out, my sister is referring to the fact that my cell phone died, I.E. was eaten by my dog, :headache: i've since fallen off the face of the earth lol. Anyway Tori as soon as i get my new phone i'll call ya! :hug:
 
I got my order!!!!

Here are the shoes! I LOVE them! :lovestruc I can't wait to put the hot pink rhinestones on them!

please excuse my lack of a nice pedicure. :rolleyes1

My hair piece is so pretty and i love it! it is a tad flimsy but nothing that wont hold up and for 17$ its no big deal.

and in my hair...

Now for the only let down... the earrings. I really thought they were alot bigger than what they actually are. I'm sure it said it on the website however i was only going my the pictures. so i word to the wise to anyone purchasing from this website... get your measurements!!! Other than the fact that they're small i do like them... what do you girls think?

and in my ear....

007.jpg


they sparkle alot more than what my camera shows and they are very pretty but do you think its enough?
 
oh they are so pretttty....that is tough about buying online...even with measurements i dont know how much it helps lolol


i think that if they sparkle enough it should be enough ...they are really pretty and i think they are statement enough
 
Yooza those shoes are big! I'd fall flat on my face in those. More power to you! Love the cute hairpiece and I definitely think the earrings will be enough. Are you wearing a necklace? They are very sparkly and pretty.
 
Everything is great hun! The shoes are great (I can't wear heels so :thumbsup2 to you) I really like the clip its super cute and looks really good in your hair. I think the earring with look very nice, I don't think they need to be very big. I think they will be just enough. You did very good

where did you buy the earrings? i can't remember if you said :rolleyes1
 
Yeh for AKV, that's great, that was our second choice, but we went with BWV instead, but I think we are going to do some of our honeymoon shoot there.

You're not alone with the anxiety, I think everyone goes through it, I know I have :hug: you just have to remember that it is about you and DFi and everything will be okay. I probably felt the same way about my father as you seem to feel about inviting your mother. I did send my dad an invite, but knew he would never come since he won't fly and you can't really get to PR otherwise. His loss.

Bless you for the heels, I could never do it, they look nice though. The flower looks really nice as well! I like the earrings, I think they look just right on your ear and if they are sparkly they should be just fine IMO.
 
I think we all share in your wedding anxiety!! It's kind of difficult when you invest some much time and effort into an event like this, not to freak out at all. :rotfl2: So really, I think you're doing a great job to keep it under control! Besides, I'm (and the other girls I'm sure!) here should you need to vent anytime! :hug:

Your shoes are SO pretty! I can't wait to see them all prettied up with the pink rhinestones!!! :love: And honestly, I think the earrings are perfect! They look really nice on your ear. I think anything more and it might be a tad gaudy. The hair accessory is cute too! :thumbsup2
