Randy is AVAILABLE!!! I am so excited! After hearing all the great things from everyone I am excited that he is available for my wedding date.

So with only 9 months till the wedding I want to start dress shopping now. I asked my mom when she could go with me and she said October. I am moving to Portland next month and that is when she is comming to visit. I dont think that is enough time. So she agreed to go with me on Thursday. Im excited!! Ill try and get pictures.

Congrats on getting Randy! I was a little hesitant when I decided on him, but after seeing my pics, I know he is a great choice!! Are you coming down to Disney for a planning session?? Larry and I would love to meet up again if you are available. Good luck with your dress shopping!

Sadly we wont be down to disney until the wedding. We have decided to go for an Escape wedding, so no planning session. We will be in town for a week for the wedding, we can try and meet up during that time. Less than 9 months

Did you contact Disney yet about the DP? Are you able to have a DP with 11 people? How much did it cost?

I not sure about costs but yes we can do a DP with only 11 people. I think it is something like $22 per person + $12.50 viewing fee + the $200 for the site + tax and service fees. Morocco is the only site available for this. My WC said I can book it at 8 months and hasnt told me more than that.

My mom and I went dress shopping yesterday!! I found a couple that I like but nothing that I LOVED. But there is deffinatly one that I could see my self wearing. I am going again my with my mom and sister on Monday to differnt stores. One thing that I found interesting (and annoying) the store that I went to yesterday on the third visit you have to pay $50. It is non-refunadable unless you purchase something that day. I can see my self going somewhere else as i dont think I can decide in 3 visists.

Here are some pictures:

Great dresses! They're all very flattering to you. I say keep looking, though - most girls get a feeling when they've found the right dress. Or, if they are me, they try on 60 dresses and finally just buy the one that makes their waist look smallest.

That is totally bogus - I would vote with my feet on that and go elsewhere!
