Tiffany

My DF got the snow globe at www.disneyshopping.com

Wasn't that a great Idea! I loved my proposal so much!

 

[MUDisneyCouple]

Laura - GREAT idea to include that in your invites. Everyone we told we were going on DCL, they ALL said, "that's for kids" or "that's only for families and you don't have kids"...whatev! DCL rocks! They cater to everyone in the family!!! Your guests are so lucky to be sharing your special day with you and DCL!!! Great taste!

TamTab - you should definately make your DF read it. My DH was hessitant, but LOVED it! Laura's enclosure outlined everything perfectly! It was the best cruise we had been on and DH doesn't want to go on another cruiseline again! Too bad DCL doesn't go to Europe anymore or we'd be in heaven!

On Saturday my DF and I went to brunch and then we took the long drive to Washington DC to take my Engagement Ring to the Jeweler. I was very sad about this, but I did not want any of my stones to fall out. Once we got there they told me they would need to ship the ring to their headquarters in CALIFORNIA! This was horrible news. The lady seen the sadness in my face and suggested they see what their on-site jeweler could do. She came back over to me and told me that he could fix it and it would be done by 4:15pm that day! ahhh....That made me feel so much better. As she was writing up the slip she told me he would need to change the triangles to circles. NOOO!!!!! That will ruin the design.

So she tore up the slip and told me they would need to send it to California. I teared up a bit but told her ok. Then she told me it would be 6-8 week! I said NO WAY! Then the manager came over and told me it would only be 2-3 weeks. I asked for a loner (I was just joking) and Pete walked away. I embarrass him so much some times. So my ring is GONE! I asked the lady all about what will happen if it gets lost (it is one of a kind) and she told me Corporate would be forced to redesign it exactly. Thank god!</p>

In better wedding planning news......I got the Crystal Designs to make my shirts for the girls in the wedding party!

They are going to look so good. I ordered all the shirts and they should be in this week!

I also contacted the florist about my 2nd wedding bouquet. I am going to need two. One for the wedding on the ship and one for the pictures off of the ship, the Magic Kingdom/Epcot Photo Session. You can't take plant life off of the ship. I got a pretty good quote of $250 which will include my Bouquet and Pete's boutonniere Here is the description that the florist and I worked out.

"Bridal Bouquet with white roses, white stephanotis, a few hot pink roses - extra large - say 48 roses? We would stem wrap with pearl inserts (Mickey style). The boutonniere would be a Hot Pink Rose and stephanotis."

It will look a bit like this colorwise:

With the Stephanotis like this:

and like this:

and the stems like this:

The crystal designs look great and they seemed to arrive quickly. They will look pretty on the color you chose. I may have to borrow the Tshirt idea for our VR, we already do them when we go on vacation to WDW so I can make special ones! Another project looms.... The flowers sound pretty too esp. the roses! I love roses!!! Just imagine how beautiful your ring will be when it comes back!! Losing a stone would be terrible. I lost mine from my engagement ring right around our 15th anniversary and felt bad and figured it was gone for ever but then by a miracle it had fallen out on the floor on our car and I found IT!

 

[MUDisneyCouple]

The flowers look great and so do the colors...I LOVE stephanotis! They are so delicate and fragrant. Great choices!!!

Here are too happy thoughts and for a safe return of you ring to you!

Tonight Crystal (BM) and I went to look for bridemaid dresses at a little local bridal shop. It was great. We found 4 dresses we liked. I have pictures of them. The lady who owns the shop stayed late for us and was so helpful! She even "lent" me two flower girl dresses to take to Nikki's (other BM) this weekend.

Dress One - This one is my favorite, but Laura (MOH) hates it. I am taking her next week to look at it and if she likes it then we will probally go with this one.

Dress Two - This one is my 2nd Favorite. I love it. Dress one only wins cause of the sleaves. Actually these first two are pretty 50/50. I know this one is Crystal's favorite and if Nikki, Shannon and Laura like it then this one will be the dress.

Dress Three - I like this dress alot. I think it is so pretty with great lines.

Dress Four - I love this dress cause it looks alot like mine. It is elegant and pretty!

I got mine off of ebay too! She had like a multi pack for pretty cheap. She also has a web site.

I like dress two also, but I have two plus sized bridesmaids and I am not sure how much skin they want to show. LOL - I have sent out a mass email with lots of pictures hopefully we can pick soon!!

 

[shezfrombermuda]

Dress #2 and dress #4 are my favourite. You can definitely tell which one is Crystal's favourite! I think all four would be nice for a beach wedding.

What do you search on ebay for the crystal designs? I would love to make these as well.

 

[pjstevens]

Lisa,

Just stopped by to see how your plans are coming. I love the flowers! They are beautiful. You can definately tell which dress Crystal loves, lol. Thanks for stopping by my PJ. I really love your ring. I read your engagement story a while ago and can't believe how romantic your hubby to be is!!! Boy, I wish mine had thought of stuff like that, but after 25 years, I can't complain!

 

[HebeJebe]

Everything looks amazing and I am so beyond in love with your invites. I wish I had done something like that!! You should try and do Thank You notes just like that to finish out the theme.
When we had our DCL wedding there were 19 of us and not a single kid to be seen. Our friends had such a great time and most of them are non-Disney people. In fact they had a better time on our DCL wedding trip than on our friend's RCCL one.
