If you can't find a ring, you could always wear your e-ring on your right and get a stand alone ring.
PS I love the blue toasting flutes!
I have thought about that too...I just love my e-ring so much!!
The toasting flutes are really pretty. I just threw mine out last week.
I had no use for them and they were cheap from Ebay. I think I paid 9.00 for them and just fixed them up. They did the job.
I think if you want to keep them it would be nice to get them engraved.
I know Arribas Bros. in Disney have really nice ones if you want to take a look when you are down there. They may be pricy but if you plan on keeping them it might be worth it.
Oh that's a good idea! He loved the Arrivas Bros. when we were down last time. Maybe in September we can take a look! Thanks!!
Love how things look so far. As far as the wedding band goes - the pave ring looks very nice. Love the blue on the toasting flutes. I know disney has Mickey and Minnie toasting flutes with a blue base. I think Vanessa used them. I really wanted to use ones with a red stem but we could not find any one we wanted. As it turns out, while the waiter was setting up our sweetheart table he dropped one of our toasting glasses and broke it. They were plain flutes that said bride and groom on them. We never got them engraved. Our wedding planner told us this before the reception and they gave us the Mickey and Minnie ones for free.
As far as the dress goes, what ever you decide I am sure will be great. Love the white dress from VS. Here is a photo of the dress that I wore for our engagement shoot with Misty. As far as a pop of color - I think this would be great.
This was a Davids Bridal bridesmaid dress that I had seen on one of my trips to Davids Bridal that I fell in love with. I did not want this to be the dress that my girls wore (they wore red) but I really liked the dress and it was perfect for our engagement shoot.

See...that is why I didn't want to get any, I don't want it to get broken! I think it's cute that he wants something to keep as a momento. I have seen a lot I like, it's just a matter of narrowing it down.
Your pictures are gorgeous!! Thank you for posting.
If you are looking for the ultimate bargain for your toasting flute... I was just at Pier 1 today and they had some nice, clean, simple cobalt flutes on clearance for $3 each. They could easily be jazzed up with etching monograms or something on them. I loves me a bargain!
They had this shape:
But were this color:
P.S. I totally meant to post this an hour ago, but a tornado decided to threaten my campus!
Oh no!! Tornado warning??!? Everything ok?
I will have to check our Pier one! Thanks!!
Are photos at an angle the "in" thing for wedding/engagement photos these days? I seem to see a lot of them. I must be getting old because I feel the need to tilt my head to look at them. Lol.
Lol I think so (the angel thing, not the old thing)
I really like the dress you picked out from Victoria's Secret, but I think you should pick something other than white. It is so hard to get the exposure on white correct especially if Eric isn't wearing white as well. It can look very washed out and you won't get any detail in the dress. It is one of the many challenges with photographing weddings you don't want to have the same with your engagement pictures! Oy, if it is a bright sunny day when you do the photos it will be even harder!
Although since your wedding dress is ivory that helps a lot with that problem. I do love that style of dress though...it is so cute!
Ok I'm done with the photographer point of view. Now the wedding band. I agree you should look at curved bands...that might make it easier to fit with your e-ring.
Yay!! Where have you been lady?? Thank for that...it didn't even cross my mind. I guess white dress if off the list.
I also need to get Eric out and ring shopping. I think I need to try some on before I decide...even though I love that pave one.
I'm alittle bit behind in my reading but I wanted to tell you that i LOVE that wedding band you posted! Its very pretty and dainty!
I think it'll go really nice with your e-ring. You should go out with eric one day and just try on a bunch... i tried on a few when we were up at a Zales outlet and it was a good time!
Thanks...my hands are kinda small so anything too big wouldn't work. I can't wait to go shopping!!
good...a photographer weighed in!! That was something I got upset about..the flash was too hot and washed out the detail on my dress..
I like the black and white Lauren shot you in before..that looked nice. But think about the area you will use...the beach at the poly? Animal Kingdom? WP beach? Try to get something that will mix will with the background.
Good point! Thanks for showing me a picture.
Well I have heard back from 3 makeup/hair artists. Beaute Specials, About Face, and Onsite Beauty. I really like Onsite Beauty the best even though they are a bit more expensive.
We are also all set with Randy for our e-pics. We are taking them at the Boardwalk the morning of our planning session...that is going to be a busy day!!!
So if we are doing the Boardwalk, what color dress?? Blue maybe??
Now I have two months to figure out what I want to do with my hair!!
