[PrincessTinker11]

Congrats!! I agree, this thing can be a bit confusing!!

When I first joined I was so frustrated with this site...I still learn something new every day from it! lol

 

[PrincessTinker11]

Yeah, today I got a phone call that my wedding dress has come in! I am going to pick it up on Monday and make my besties take some photos of me in it...will post!

I am not sure if I ever posted this link before so I wanted to share, it is our wedding invitations!

Thank you! I loved our invitations and have had so many compliment them

I am soooo excited, picking up my wedding dress on Monday! I will have my girls take pics so I can post them on here...my friend works at Davids Bridal and she said that when my dress came in they were all talking about how they loved it

I also called the florist and set up an appt to meet with her in April, I am getting silk florals made as I do not want to pay all that money for floral items for my parents just to have them die out...

I am getting a bouquet made especially for our Magic Kingdom shoot, I know pink roses and not sure what else!
I am getting boutonnieres for my dad, and Robs friend who we will call his best man...(even though we are not doing anyone specific since my girls cannot go BUT my sister will be there)
I am getting corsages for my mother and soon to be MIL as well....
I am also getting a bouquet made up for my sister...

 

[KristiLyn]

Yay for the wedding dress!! Can't wait to see it!!!

 

[PrincessTinker11]

Tomorrow is the dress day!!

 

[PrincessTinker11]

Booo....I had to cancel my dress fitting as something came up at work! I am going to shoot for this Sat and I promise to get the photos up on here as soon as I try it on!

 

[PrincessTinker11]

I went with my best friend yesterday, tried my dress on and brought it home! I also have a few pics that I will post once my DF goes out! lol I don't want him to sneak a peak!

I am so excited and want to lose about 20 pounds before the wedding, have to start hitting the gym regularly I suppose I am down 7 thanks to nutri system!

This Thursday I am meeting with a cookie designer for the 6 months to sailing cookies that will be sent out to our confirmed guests...will post pics of that as well!

 

[PrincessTinker11]

Well I went with Beaute Speciale for my make up/hair for the Magic Kingdom photo shoot as Le June Artistry was not available...they are a bit more money, however, at least I know my hair/make up is going to be done when I have butter fingers that morning! LOL

I am still waiting for my fiance to go away so I can post the gown pics! LOL Maybe I will tell him to go in the bedroom this evening so I can get them on here!

Lisa you should put a link to your planning journal in your signature. I just found it (felt behind but caught up). So excited to read along!

I will try to figure out how to add the link to my signature this weekend!

We met with the cookie designer today, it was GREAT! She is going to make the cookies to match the Disney Dream, will post pics!!

 

[PrincessTinker11]

We got our trade today from RCI to DVC! I am so excited!! We have a 1 BR at OKW....I can finally breathe! LOL I was not wanting to spend money to stay at the resort when a possible trade could work, and it did! Yay!!

Meeting with the florist this Sat, I cannot wait to go over different ideas with her..I am also pondering rose balls to be hung by ribbons on the chairs on the beach to match my bridal bouquet!

 

[PrincessTinker11]

Wedding dress photos! Let's see if this works!

That is the back of my dress, I love that it laces up!

I will have the chapel train bustled for the beach and we can let it down for photos on the ship! I am very excited, we also got our floral done yesterday and the lady was very reasonable...I also got the hoodies from Old Navy, (thanks Lisa for the heads up!) and I am going to have Bridesmaid, Mother of the Bride and Mother of the Groom in bling put on the back for my family...I also got a white hoodie for me (the family all got pink!) and I will have Bride put on the back of mine

I am picking the flowers up a month before the wedding, mailing them fed ex 2 weeks prior to the resort!

So excited!!!!!! I am also happy that I have been doing nutri system, down 14 since these pics taken hoping for at least another 15 before the wedding!!!

Hey how do I add my PJ to my signature, I tried but it would not let me paste it in...just wondering!

 

[KristiLyn]

Your dress is beautiful!
