can I play too?

MY DBF and I are thinking about December 09 for a wedding, and I'd love to get married December 8th (my grandmother's wedding anniversary), but I don't want to start a PJ until we are engaged, ya know?

Any of you have any ideas of locations you want? Toni helped me find a BEAUTIFUL picture (love2b@disney's wedding I think) of Italy's Courtyard.

I'm in love with it.

Well I would love to have a very small wedding...right now I am thinking Sea Breeze Point but where I would really love to have it is on the beach in between the wedding pavilion and the GF. I found a pic once and it was soo pretty. I am not sure they even do that anymore, plus it would probably have to be Wishes.

Congrats btw...can't wait to hear about the engagement when it happens. Has he hinted at all to when?

Well, a month ago, he said two different months; December of this year and June of next. I think he's trying to leave me a false trail though, so I don't think it's either of those. I'm hoping before the end of this year though, so I have a year to plan!

The best part about my BF is that he wants a DFTW just as much as I do! So I don't have to convince him. I just have to worry about the rest of my family, lol. That part will be difficult because I come from an Old-Fashioned Italian-Irish Catholic family. And technically, we are suppose to get married in the church, BUT (and this is my loophole) my DBF isn't Catholic, so it can't really be done (I know it can if he commits to converting but SHHH, my family doesn't know that!)

I started hinting now to my mom and dad that I am going to have my wedding at Disney, and that it wouldn't be 100,000 (which is what they thought it would be) so, I think it'll be less of a blow to them. They actually said they won't go over 20k, so I think I'm good

Lol I can totally relate...my exhusbands family was Catholic...to the T! They refused to let us have a Disney wedding and while I didn't have to convert I did have to agree to raise our children catholic and go to pre-cana classes. Right now he is trying to get an anulment so he can get married again Catholicism confuses me! I was always made I settled and didn't go through with a Disney wedding (although his family wouldn't have gone). I have heard some priests will "bless" the marriage when you get back though...

Well, you see. I'm not as catholic as my family. I don't even go to church anymore, because I just didn't agree with some of the teachings. My parents were really upset about it at first (and probably still are, but more quiet about it). I'll go to mass on holidays and my grandfather's mass once a year, but that's really to keep the peace in my family just a tad.

I thought you had to convert? I guess it depends on the diocese?

And don't worry, Catholicism confuses me sometimes too, and I was born into it!

My view of the Disney Wedding: Only the people who WANT to be there will come, and the ones who go to a wedding for the sake of "family commitment" and don't really want to be there, well I'm giving them excuse not to go, and I save money on food! I know my state of mind will change when most of my family says no, but I'm content with my theory now. I know people are going to try to push into it, but I simply won't let them.

My famous cop out, "are you offering to pay for my wedding? If not, put a lid on it, because you're opinion doesn't matter" Another thing that might go to the dogs when the time comes >_<

We had a full catholic mass at our wedding too...but I NEVER converted, much to the dismay of my former mil. But I do know that unless he gets the anulment, I can never be remarried in the catholic church (if I happen to find another catholic I would marry )

I really like the idea of a very small intimate wedding someplace that means something to me. I don't want all the hoopla. I do know my current dbf has his heart set on a huge reception and has mentioned several people he wants in the wedding (if we ever get that far).I am hoping if the time comes I can convince him to have the ceremony my way and he can have the biggest party when we get home. I also want my brother to be our officiant (he's an ordained minister, no specific demoniation) I think it will be more personal this way

But you are right...and if I learned anything from doing this once already, is do it the way YOU want...don't worry about wedding etiquette and who you might affend because they can't come. It's your wedding!!

On a side note, I keep hearing this song on my IPod that I just love and am starting to think it would make a good song for a ceremony.


"Feels Like Home"

Somethin' in your eyes, makes me wanna lose myself
Makes me wanna lose myself, in your arms
There's somethin' in your voice, makes my heart beat fast
Hope this feeling lasts, the rest of my life

If you knew how lonely my life has been
And how long I've been so alone
And if you knew how I wanted someone to come along
And change my life the way you've done

It feels like home to me, it feels like home to me
It feels like I'm all the way back where I come from
It feels like home to me, it feels like home to me
It feels like I'm all the way back where I belong

A window breaks, down a long, dark street
And a siren wails in the night
But I'm alright, 'cause I have you here with me
And I can almost see, through the dark there is light

Well, if you knew how much this moment means to me
And how long I've waited for your touch
And if you knew how happy you are making me
I never thought that I'd love anyone so much

It feels like home to me, it feels like home to me
It feels like I'm all the way the back where I come from
It feels like home to me, it feels like home to me
It feels like I'm all the way back where I belong
It feels like I'm all the way back where I belong

hi ladies! i'm in the same boat as y'all. i love love love wedding stuff! it comes from being engaged when i was 18, i think...i just never got out of the planning mode, lol!

funny story: my best friend was attending a wedding this last weekend, and she had bought two dresses that she was considering wearing. She asked me to give my opinion on them...she pulls out one, a nice black one with a cute ivory bow in the middle, and then she pulls out...a WHITE dress!!
"Jill, you canNOT wear a white dress to a wedding!"
"But I like this one, are you sure..."
"WOMAN, YOU CANNOT WEAR A WHITE DRESS TO A WEDDING!"
okay, so it was kind of ivory colored, but still...i mean, i'm all for the bucking all the old fashion rules, but i think that one should be observed!!

well that's all i got for now, but i just wanted to say hello, and megveg here's some for you!


and ooooh i LOVE this dress!

 

[disneychickforever]

So how many people here have played with the Dream Wedding thing on David's Bridal?

I spent the day playing with it lol. It was fun

 

[ArelysAdriana]

I'm totally guilty of playing on that thing

The boy and I spent a weekend with my family back in June and my whole family completely adores him and now they keep bugging me about when we're getting married. They want him to become part of the family already I told my parents we'll get married when they can afford a Disney wedding


Meg, I hope all is ok with you

 

[disneychickforever]

I designed my whole wedding party and showed my mom....is that creepy? Lol.
