J & T's Wishes Wedding 5/5/12 SB/SBP/BW *Wedding & Aulani HM TR Complete!*

[Jilian]

Ok girls, I'm slightly freaking out! Sooo I tried to email Rev. Jack Day a few times (like 3x in a week) with no response, I asked on our FB group and some girls said he is just bad at email, so I went ahead and sent him our ceremony last week. I haven't heard a peep from him. I just emailed him again. I'm thinking I should call (yes I am on the ph all day at work but I really hate calling people... lol) I am getting very nervous he's not saving the day for us and I'm panicking.

I guess I will try calling him later today if he doesnt respond.

Then I'll try contacting Rev Tim again and pray he's still open for us

Ack! Stuff like that makes me nervous too. Did you end up calling? I hope you were able to reach him.

I hope you've heard from him by now! We're in a similar boat. I emailed Rev. Tim on March 26th. And then at the beginning of this week, and nothing. What the duck?

That is kind of strange to not reply to email over a weeks time. But I noticed that some people just aren't email people and they get busy or whatnot and it's not a priority...especially with older generations. Give him a call, I am sure he will be available by phone. Did you give him a down payment? I wouldn't worry too much. Rev. Tim Herring is the same way; he will reply right away at times and then not at all and when he does reply it's pretty short and to the point. I am sure if you call it will ease your fears.

Oh and just wanted to add that your BEO came out great. I bet this ia s huge sigh of relief for you. That's super news!

Thanks for all the good vibes! I did end up calling him yesterday, got him LIVE and confirmed he has us on his schedule! I absolutely love his accent!! Very excited to meet him and have him marry us. He confirmed he did receive our ceremony as well and we are good to go. He kept asking me which "Beach Club" the wedding was at... I was trying to use close places like SBP and BW, but then he thought we were getting married there. Finally I said Yacht Club and that must have set off the lightbulb because now he understands! Phew! I am so glad I called!!

A few updates!!

DF got his groomsmen gifts- and now that they're here (and heavy), I wish we shipped them right to FL! He got them each a flask in a nice wooden box, both monogrammed with their initials! The box:

The flask and other goodies:

He also got the best men watches to thank them a little bit extra

I ended up getting my girls waffle weave spa robes- I shipped them right to FL so I haven't seen them, but hoping they are great! They were delivered last Saturday, supposedly!

DF's sister finished writing out the escort card envelopes ( inside we included fastpasses to the correct table and the share site card)

I also bought these "play packs" at Michaels- I wrote in our BEO for them to be placed instead of a menu or under the menu at the high chairs at the reception, so the little kids have something to keep occupied!

I also bought our "big" kids (theyre both 12) a black vinylmation, and I need to find those silver markers so they can design them/draw on them during dinner. I figured that was a little bit cooler than the play pack!

Yesterday I came home to our Mad Libs in the mail! We are using Mad Libs instead of a guest book, and I think they came out great!
They came packaged so pretty!

Yesterday I also purchased our custom welcome bags! I had seen them before on Style Me Pretty, and had pinned them on my board, but I didn't realize how easily I could purchase them! I got a lot of 20 of them for $100, so $5 a bag, I didn't that that was bad at all! (We currently need 18 with people staying on property/in our block)

(of course they will say 5.5.12)

 

[tric8783]

I had my second dress fitting last Wednesday to add my bustle! I ended up getting a french bustle to keep the shape and design elements of the dress! I'm excited, i love putting her on! One of my friends at work decided since I keep referring to my dress as "her" i should name her- so she named her Tiffany! lol

Here is Tiffany with her bling on!

A better close-up of the bling

And one more

I think it's just enough!

My dress and all her alterations are paid in FULL! I go back next Wednesday to put her on one more time, I'm bringing my sister to learn the bustle, then they will steam her and I'll pick her up Tuesday before we leave on Wednesday, eeee!!! We leave two weeks from tomorrow!!!!

Oh! We also finally bought our rings!!! DF got a simple tungsten carbide ring, and I got a thin row of diamonds I didn't want anything overpowering my pretty rock, and didn't want DF to think I needed more than I already got. They should come on Thursday, I can't wait to see them!

 

[BethieTink]

Tricia,

I can't believe you are so close!!! Wow!

Everything looks awesome! Love the mad libs. May be stealing that .

Good luck with all the last minute stuff.

 

[yourgypsy]

Man, I wish I was there was time to stalk your wedding and sneak into the reception! Everything looks SO great, twin! I love those Mad Libs; what a creative idea.

And your dress! It's so gorgeous. I love the sparkly (there's a surprise )

And holy moly, you're leaving in two weeks, which means I'm leaving in two weeks and two days! Oh, there's that sudden onslaught of worry over things that need to be done/sent/called/etc. *attemping deep, calming breaths*

17 days! (It's nearly the 18th at this point, so I'll just round up by 23 minutes)

 

[mebbradley]

Ahhh I love the bags! You are so so so close!!!!

 

[CourtenayB]

Phew! Glad you got in touch with him. Knew you would
I am liking all the new updates: nice gifts for the Best man, groomsman, and bridesmaids. Fast pass envelopes look great, and the idea for the kids to have something to do at the wedding is genious...I am going to copy this. Thank you for sharing lol!!!!

And O M G that dress and you in that dress (or should I say Tiffany)...AMAZING! You look stunning, it fits you great! Love the bling bling too. Tricia you are SO close!!!!!!

 

[2dogmom]

I love the bags and mad libs. I may be stealing them too I really love Tiffany! 2 weeks. Not too long now!

Thanks Bethie!! Sorry I have been bad at commenting lately! I'm really starting to go into panic mode here, so I appreciate the luck with my last minute things!! I got the Mad Libs made on Etsy- she was wonderful at getting our fonts and colors to match and etc, I love them!

You're going to give Tiffany an ego! bahahahaha too funny, thank you so much! I was worried I wouldnt like her once she came in or something crazy, but I do love her!!

I had the minor time freak out this morning when I realized we can do the online check-in in SIX DAYS! It seems like just three months ago that I first called Disney!

Hey, have you noticed the smileys on the side are in different locations each time you reply to someone?

And yes, I called him this morning and spoke to him, albeit very briefly. He says he never received an email from me. Though he also asked me if I was the bride that emailed him this morning. Is it so wrong that I want some kind of real communication? His website makes it seem like he really wants to get to know the bride and groom, and I didn't get that vibe at all on the phone, nor in emails. So, yes, all set! I figure I'll send another email with the ceremony word-age that we want, and bring a copy with us, just in case.

 

[MrsDuck]

OMG! 2 weeks!! YAY!!!

 

[Icecoldpenguin]

Wow you are so incredibly close. I love the way the dress looks and I am very impressed with how nice everything has come together! Hooray for leaving so soon!

The Groomsman gifts are so timeless and classic. I adore them.

And Tiffany, WOWSER!! You look stunning

Don't stress too much, you've done so much work now it should be smooth sailing! (Of course I'm a week out and a bit psycho but don't mind me)

Also, those groomsmen gifts are REALLY nice! Good job selecting them.

I love Tiffany's bling. She looks very happy in it.

Thank you!! Umm Michaels is like a craft store, I think there is a Hobby Lobby in Orlando. I'm not sure if they carry them ? I've seen them in our grocery store too actually, they're only $1 each so I thought they were cute to have! You might be able to google Michaels and get them online? I'm at work now but I'll look later for you!

You pretty much have the perfect wedding, Tricia!! All of the details, all of the thought and care. I'm just swooning over it all!!

haha aw you're so sweet, thank you! I have put a lot into the wedding trying to make it very special even though it's destination and in Disney I wanted it to still be personal to us. I really hope it comes out that way! I'm definitely starting to freak, 2 weeks and most of our friends will be arriving in WDW to see us, yippeee!!!!

2 weeks!!!!! You must be ridiculously excited.

Also, those groomsmen gifts are REALLY nice! Good job selecting them.

I love Tiffany's bling. She looks very happy in it.

I am seriously ridiculously excited... lol !! I get even more excited with all my stuff I've been ordering is coming in, I love seeing it all!! I can't wait to put it all in action!! The actual flasks ended up being DF, but I really tried to steer him towards them I hope they all like them!!

Ohhhh Tiffany. stealin the show. Thanks so much!!!

 

[virtuous girl]

Ahhhhh! So close! I love "Tiffany" with her bling! nice things u are giving out that day, so much fun

 

[Jilian]

Your dress looks so beautiful on you, it fits you perfectly. I love that you named it and the bling is so pretty.

Mad libs is the best idea ever. I'm sure you'll get some hilarious responses.

You're so close now, are you getting excited?! I can't wait to see how the final product looks. Its going to be so pretty.
