Good morning. I am being unproductive at work and looking at Wedding dresses and Bridesmaid dresses.
Wedding Dresses:
Same dress:
I found this dress because it was a DISers dress that she just got married in at WDW.
Wedding flowers:
Bridesmaid dresses:
Stace - which bridesmaid dresses do you like, any?
Heidi, I love your choices! If I HAD to give you a decision, I would go with the wedding dress with the straps (you don't have to worry about pulling up a strapless dress everytime you move). The other is very pretty too, but if you go with the "pink" for the bridesmaids, you should make sure that the pinks match AND make sure that there's not TOO much pink. Having straps on a dress just gives you the "security" that you don't have to worry about your dress. Also, if you need alterations, the pink and white dress, the alterations are harder because the color portion would have to be removed, the dress cut, then the color portion re-attached. You also have to make sure that the person doing the alterations HAS done that kind of alterations. I have seen some girls come in after that kind of alterations and the white portion of the dress is uneven and the color portions looks off. The other dress is a simple alteration, if needed.
SO, if you go with the one with straps, I would go with the bridesmaids dress..... the purple dress (the first picture of the dress choices). It is simple and elegant. AND it has some "bead work" on the top. That would make a good "match". Also, this dress CAN be cut down to a tea length or a shorter dress after the wedding so the girls COULD wear it again. PLUS the flowers you like (which I must say are BEAUTIFUL) would look great with both the wedding dress and bridesmaid one. You could go with the pink and white with the wedding gown and with the bridesmaids, you could put pink roses with a purple flower instead of the white. That would be SHARP!! Just my two cents.
The green dress is nice too, but with the bottom design, you have to watch that IF someone in the wedding party is on the short side, the alterations would come from the bottom and you might loose some of that design. ALSO watch when it comes to "falling in love" with a bridesmaid dress until you make sure that that dress does come in the color you are going with. I had serveral brides come in and have their girls try the dress on and everyne loves it, BUT when it comes to ordering it, they find out that the dress doesn't come in the color she wanted. once again, just my two cents!
I love them all! just remember, it's your wedding and you pick what YOU want.
Hi Barb and Sally!
Sandy, we do have the cold!! Monday it is only suppose to go up to 10 degrees as the high!
Denine, sooooo, when are you guys coming down in June??? We leave on the 5th and come back on the 20th. Anytime, just let me know!
Update on Garry's dad, he has a urine infection, a blood infection and has blood in his stool. He is also having some pain in his chest so he is now on nitro gliscerin (sp) pills. They want him to have a colon exam, but they feel he is too weak to go through it right now. The dr. thinks that the cancer might have spread to the colon. PLUS, we find out last night that he fell last wed. night (when Garry' brother was up to "help" out at night) and landed on his bottom and as he put it "bounced". He could have very easily fractured a bone since his bones are so weak. they are giving him an xray today to see if there is any fracture or if he did something to the metal "box" that was put in the place of the 5th vertabra.
Garry has another foot dr. appointment today and I'm sure he will get another injection and get scheduled for a MRI and then the next step is surgery.
My dad has an appointment today as well with his infecious disease dr. She will tell him today if the infection in his heal has gone into the bone and if he will be hospitalized. NICE!
Well, enough of my "sun shine" news! lol!!! Gotta go! Be back later!
TTFN
