You read my mind Caryn! I was totally thinking blue! I dont even know if they make my bra anymore... I've had it for a couple years. So I'm off to Google "blue bra"

my girls are slightly odd, my measurements are all over the place, i love le mystere bras, they are the only ones that fit correctly and they have EVERY size imaginable!

oh god. i haven't started my place cards yet.

i'm glad your table situation has worked out, and i'm glad your guest count is lowered, that way you will totally have enough room!

it's good that she sent you your updated beo, i have yet to receive mine and our deposit is due in 10 days.

Yay! Thats great news about the seating at LSS! I may have to end up doing that also, so I'll keep it in mind to ask Celeste about it. I'm having around 45-50 guests so hopefully it won't be too much of a problem.

I thought about getting fresh strawberries in my cake also, but someone had posted it was an additional $50 to have them. Then another bride said that she got them at no additional charge. Typical inconsistent information from Disney I guess . Did you have a chance to ask Celeste if there was an additional charge?

I wish I lived closer to Disney, I'm so jealous! Plus it would be easier for me to bring things over than having to pack everything in suitcases and worry it about it getting lost . Wow so it does look like everything is finally coming together! I'm so excited for you!

I had a phone planning session with Celeste yesterday. Everything went really well. I'm starting to feel like everything's coming together!

I was concerned about the tables of 6 at the LSS... I've been having a hell of a time with my seating chart because i have a group of 4 friends (and their dates) who wont know anyone else but the four of them. I hated the thought of splitting them up, so my first question to Celeste was if there was ANY WAY I could have a table of 8 with the existing seating. To my surprise she said she was just working on our room diagram and since we're having a sweetheart table she'd turned the other two squares into a table for 8

Then we updated the guest count to 69... more than 30 less than we'd originally thought. This allows us to get rid of the extra tables which i'm excited about. I was worried about being packed like sardines in the LSS.

I also changed my cake filling to add fresh strawberries. Has anyone done this?? I love strawberries, but i'm worried that they wont be so "fresh" and more like a gel. Do they over power the cake and filling?

About an hour after our phone convo I got an updated budget, BEO and venue diagram from Celeste. Everything looked great, so its already signed and sent back!! I'm so relieved!!

I'm going up to Disney this weekend (gotta meet with my outside florist and do some other wedding related errands) so I'll drop off my sandcastle centerpieces to Rose. I'm excited to get those things out of my house!

After this weekend I dont have too much left to do... gotta make the place cards and finalize the table name cards and seating chart, then DF and the guys are going to get measured for tuxes on Monday. Also, I'm having second thoughts on the welcome bags. I think I may make them after all... so thats an added project, but the end is in site!!

I'm really glad it all worked out

Celeste said something about a move fee to take out tables that arent being used... I'm not sure if I should take out the extra tables or not. I'll let you know what I end up doing.

i'm going to buy crayons, coloring books, etc for the kids attending our wedding and i'm going to set them up on the empty tables.

Great update Kristen!

I love Christmas time in Disney! Unfortunately I wasn't able to go this year . The castle looks beautiful with all those lights. I hope they do that every year. I love your picture from Rock n Roller Coaster. Your DF had the funniest look on his face. You guys looked like you were having a great time though .

Thats so nice that the artist is making a custom cake topper for you guys. I think it just makes it that much more special.

Did you know right away that you wanted to go with an outside florist? Or did you go running after you saw a quote from Disney? I'm still trying to decide if I want to use an outside vendor or not. We're going to have 4 bridesmaids and 4 groomsmen. I'm thinking about just getting my bouquet from Disney and the rest from Peddles? I don't know, I'm so confused.

 

[caryndisneydiva]

your pic on the RRC is PRICELESS!!! what is the cake topper? is that a fin that i see??? i'm glad that you got your floral worked out. are you drying your bouquet?

what did they change about the haunted mansion? my fmil will DIE. the last time she was there it was closed and she wrote a letter to eisner (no joke), so if it's changed a lot, she's literally going to keel over...

i'm glad you guys had a good time and got most of your stuff done! 37 days to go for you !

After my wedding I'll post lots of flower pics so you can see if you like Vicki's style. So far she's been great to deal with. She returns my emails almost instantly.

That'll be great Kristen! Thanks! I'm glad your experience has been good with her so far.

well, i changed my bouquet to be all roses, so i no longer have to worry about hydrangea's. keepsake is easy to work with. the only thing that aggravated me was they have a $75 pick up fee from dftw florist, but i guess that beats trying to find their office somewhere in orlando while i'm trying to enjoy my polymoon...
