WOOHOO! Lots going on!

wow...that's a lot of exciting stuff going on!!! woohoo!!!

Yup!! I feel kinda of in limbo now even though I know there is more to do!! I am excited to start on the invites!

Ugh, I'm so far behind (laptop died and Internet down at home for a week). I wanted to stop in to say hello to my anniversary twin The monograms from last week are beautiful and I love some of the hair ideas. Lots of exciting things right now with the STDs and the contract.

Oh how fun! We are anniversary twins!! Thanks for stopping by!

YAY! Good luck shopping tonight and have fun!

I'm sure we will!! And we are going to take lots of pictures!!

Oh and I forgot to metion earlier, we are officially booked for September. The 28 to the 4th. Hopefully getting to do my Planning Session while we are there. It's nice becaue Eric gets to stay with us, we are only paying $312 plus his airfare for the trip (since it's technically for work). We won't have a ton of downtime. Here's our itinerary:

Monday-Arrive late afternoon, dinner at Raglan Road
Tuesday-PS hopefully, eating around EPCOT for dinner
Wed-Conference starts. Dinner at Liberty Tree Tavern
Thur-Conference. Dinner at Citricos
Fri-Conference...we end early though Lunch/Dinner at Yak and Yeti

Soooooooo excited for tonight!!! Although with our track record I don't know if I am letting myself believe it is happening tonight

That's great that you've got your September trip sorted.

I live in Ft Myers 3 hours away so I have to figure out a way to come up there to meet you guys!

 

[figment fan21]

Oh and you and Jazzy need to take tons of pics for us!

 

[DisneyMissy]

Wow I've missed soooo much! All of your plans are coming together so well! I LOVE that cake! Good luck dress shopping!

 

[ChocoKat]

Hey! I am trying to see if I can have a site visit on the 24th of September!
DH and I will be down there running the Expedition Everest 5K that weekend, and we have some down time before the race, so we thought it would be a great time to go venue "shopping"!

I can't wait to see the invites and the dress!

 

[Jazzylolo]

Amanda and I finally found time to go dress shopping today and it proved very successful. We found 3 dresses we loved that we had a hard time choosing between. In the end we picked the dress we have liked from the beginning - even before I tried anything on! It was a lot of fun trying on like 20 dresses but we are done and the dress is purchased. When it come in (August 12 I believe) Amanda and I will have to take pictures of both of us in our dresses to get the full effect Here are some photos. Sorry for the first two dresses being weird but we weren't allowed to take photos there so they are in dressing room

Option #1 (came very close to winning!)

Back of Option #1

Option #2 (LOVED it but it didn't seem to work and Amanda didn't like the colors it came in)

Ok lol I love this picture!!

I am really excited we found your dress. Here is a pic of the color:

So exciting, I'm glad you gals found a dress! I really like the one you picked, it's lovely. The detail is nice on it. . .

It fit her really well, very flattering!!

 

[HeatherNJNC]

Wow! You are just moving right along with your wedding planning! I love the detail on the dress!

 

[figmentfan814]

The final dress choice is really nice, I love the top on it and the color. I laughed when I saw the first one because it looks really close to the dress I wore for our at-home reception; it was even red.

 

[Shyvioletisme]

wow. LOVE the final choice for the BM dress and it looks GREAT on Lauren...it seems to fit so well!!! Can't wait to see both of ya'll in your dresses when hers comes in!!

 

[Jazzylolo]

I'm glad everyone likes the dress! After looking back at the photos I do LOVE that red one and still don't know if we picked the right one I like them both too much I think no matter which one we picked I would have felt like I should have gone with the other one lol!!

 

[figmentfan814]

I know how you feel about the dresses. I agonized for a long time on my bridemaid dress and then once I finally decided we went to order them and the style I picked was discontinued, so we had to start the search all over again Don't worry about it, the dress you have picked is beautiful!
