AWWW She is adorable.... Bichons are the best.. I so agree...

Christina,
Really enjoying your TR! The pictures are so great!
You are very lucky that you already got your BEO back, and that it was reasonably priced! I don't think many of us can say either of those things! Hope your floral BEO comes back the same way!

I am now anxious to see the floral BEO now, watch that come in and I will look like this

Christina...love your TR so far!! I can't wait to hear about your PS!! You have to post it tomorrow...before 5pm..so I can read it before I leave for my PS!! lol...no pressure

Can't wait to hear more! Your TR is great so far. The BM dress looks really great on a hanger, I bet it will look even better on a person!
PS- all these pups are so cute. We need to have a furry babies thread!

I love all the pictures from the ride up. I can't wait to see all the ones from the actual planning session. Kris is used to all the pictures (or rather I think he's given up on the subject), he'll just look at me and say "it's for the scrapbook right?" We stayed at POP for our first planning session last year too. The theming is great, but you're right it is so far back to some of the rooms.

Ok Im back...
Now its DAY 2.. 5/9

Its 6:45am and my sister decides to get up at that TIME to go walk Dixie being that she was staying in the kennel.. Now if you know my sister she is NEVER quiet in the morning... Mon-Fri I wake up at 7am to go to work I snooze my alarm for 30 minutes so I make sure to close her door so I dont wake her... Does she do that for me of course not.. so 5/9 she is blowing her nose, sneezing the bathroom light is on...

I soo wanted to throw a pillow at her so she can pass out and not get up until I got up...lol... I kept saying "Alexis PLEASE hurry up and get going"

but before she leaves she comes and says to me "today is your planning session, arent you excited".. and I thought I wouldnt be able to sleep but I was able to... So I just said " yes now leave"

She doesnt leave until about 7:15am... AGHHHH by that time when she left I was sound asleep until 8:15am

I ONLY HAVE 30 minutes to get ready,well believe me I made it, but mom decides to take her time... It was now 8:50am and my mom was still doing her makeup... I am like "MOM we need to be out of here 5 minutes ago and NOW you are doing your makeup, come on, I dont want to be late.""

Oh I was so furious, so I called Michelle and someone in her office was going to relay the message that I was running 10 minutes late... YEA RIGHT
Here I am making the phone call..


Im thinking at this point, please pick up, please pick up

I am now talking to Linda... and I tell her PLEASE tell Michelle I am running late, we will be there in 15 minutes...BS

So now its 9am and mom is done with her makeup... COME ON.. we walk to the car and I am racing and everyone else decides to take there time..

We made it through the Magic Kingdom gates, and dad is driving SLOW.. UGHHHH I am getting annoyed... So we finally make the right at the light to head pass the poly and too the WP, well we get stuck behind a working truck going... GUESS WHAT 15 miles an hour... ARE YOU SERIOUS.. I HAVE A WEDDING TO PLAN GET MOVING.... DONT MESS WITH THE DISNEY BRIDE TO BE

we made it to Francks (Drumroll please) at dah da da dahhhhhhh 9:30.. yes a half an hour late.. I hate being late ESP. to something like this... I leave everyone behind and haul butt into Francks.. I walk in and see Caitlin and I was told her that I was to meet Michelle W. for my PS.. She told me that Michelle will be with me in a moment and to look around. I said ok thank you but can I trouble you for coffee.. I NEED my morning cup of Java ...

Oh before I continue.. as I was walking to Francks I literally couldnt believe that I was going to plan my wedding.... I kept saying to Geancarlo... "I cant believe this we are planning our wedding"

So as I walk around, we waited for about 5 minutes, my parents couldnt believe how beautiful it was inside... I have to tell you all that it was very emotional for me to be at Francks. I held back tears and kept my composure.. I have envisioned my Disney wedding since I was in 5th grade and to be standing in Francks was very surreal. I cant put into words how happy I was, this was my dream. This was the wish I wished for every time I saw a shooting star or threw a penny into the wishing well, it sounds cheesy but its so true... I truly savored every minute of the PS, I didnt want it to end.. I was planning my fairytale dream wedding.. This is the year of a million dreams and one of those dreams is mine....

Michelle comes and introduces herself to me, Geancarlo, and my parents and walks us to the planning room... At this point I forgot about the camera and was so focused onto the wedding... We sit down and she explains how today will run and how the wedding day will run, I look up and dad was holding back his tears and that made me want to cry.... IF we were emotional during the PS I cant even imagine the wedding day... We were choosing everything, wedding favors, flowers, place settings, you name it.. and I never heard the word NO from dad, he kept saying 'Ok add it, add it, great we will take that"

Im thinking GREAT the BEO will be ridiculous and the budget we have the BEO was very reasonably priced, mom and dad were shocked...

After we finished choosing the favors, Rose walks us back into the PS room and my mom writes a note to me in my Sometimes Brides Forget notebook that My grandparents are here spiritually watching down from Heaven, well I got a little tear in my eye...

unfortunately my dad's parents will not be with us physically on th wedding day, but I know they are going to be there.. My grandmother prayed that her only boy (my dad) would have girls... and yes her prayer came true, she passed away when I was 1 so I never got to really know her. When my grandpa passed away in 2001 we were cleaning out his room and I found my grandmothers charm that has her name on it... I knew that that was going to be my something old... it will be tucked in my dress on the left side closest to my heart... We are having a memorial candle and I told Rose that it was very important to me that since they are not here and 3 of Geancarlo's grandparents wont be with us, we would like to put a white rose on the pew to signify that THAT IS THEIR SPOT FOR THE WEDDING.... I think that will be very nice....

Ok well unfortunately when I uploaded the pics on monday they got deleted from photobucket ( I dont know how) so I am going to wait for them to load and I will be back with the rest of the pics from the PS...

xoxo

I have a locket that i bought to put my brother's picture in. I was going to attach it to my necklace but it's way to big, so I'm also going to put it in my bouquet.
