Love the suit and the headband!! We also opted to buy a suit as well..it just made more sense for us, we ended up getting an AMAZING deal on DF's suit from Macy's and got his Tommy suit for $150 It ended up being cheaper than renting a tux. Are you planning on having Carolyn Allen's come and steam your dress and DF's suit? I have to contact them soon to schedule them to come to the room to do ours.

Also, have you sent in for your marriage license yet?

I love suit deals. I was seriously afraid we'd end up having to pay over $500 for his suit but luckily the DKNY was on sale and we got it for under $200! Definitely cheaper or on par with renting a tux so it's totally worth it. Yes I need to contact Carolyn Allen's too!! I do want them to do it...I should probably get on that.

We are actually going to a Florida courthouse to get our marriage license in person. It's $100 cheaper than doing it online so we're trying to save the dough. It cuts it close but we've been in contact with the court house and with all the proper documentation it's actually pretty easy, just time consuming! We are driving to Florida so we will have our car with us and can get there early enough to get everything done.

Oh I just love your headband!! It came out fab!!! And Eric's suit is so sharp!! I had to convince my Eric to buy a suit too...very nice!!!

Thank you Amanda! I'm so happy with it. I was actually starting worrying that I wouldn't like it anymore but once I got it and was able to try it on all those fears disappeared!

Wendy,

Your headband and MOH flower for her hair are great and it's nice with the 'dots' on the feathers.

DF's suit looks very nice too, definately a very classic look. All he needs is James Bonds shades from Quantum of Solice

You're totally right. I need to get him some snazzy shades and he'll might be able to pull off the Bond look yet! Thank you! The main thing I wanted to include in my hair piece was the black/white feather, especially since I'm rockin the black heels

the headband looks great

Thanks!

I love the hair pieces! What does it look like on?

I will have to post a pic of me wearing it! The flower on the side is perfectly sized and I think the headband works nicely with my short hair. I will work on a pic soon though!

Love the hairpieces!

Thanks Sam!

Hello! I just finished reading all of your posts and wanted to tell you how awesome your ideas are. I love polka dots and I think the yellow as your color will make everything just pop. Also, you picked an awesome date. 6/3/10 will be my parents' 50th wedding anniversary. That should be worth some good luck. Best of wishes for you and your DF and your upcoming wedding!

 

[shippedtosea]

the hairpieces are so great! they are really unique! I can't wait to see them with your hair all done up!

DF's suit is really nice
Also I don't know remember if you said and I couldn't find it on your PJ, you guys honeymooning in WDW? I was just curious how long you'd be down there.

Also I had some luck on the vegetarian front. I asked a question on the disunplugged and go it read on air! so they answered my question about what to do if your a vegetarian at WDW. they recommend i call Disney Dietary and Allergy at 407-824-5967. They will email you a form of what you can and can't eat and then they contact the restaurants for you! I told them I was concerned with Biergarten and Hoop-Dee-Doo because of how meaty they are and they have already called me. SO I recommend you do that. They will ask for your ADR's and such

Wendy, just caught up and everything looks wonderful! I love the hanger, headpiece, BM dress, and flower choices! You are getting so close! Are you going to do a Pre-Trip Report?

Thank you! I appreciate your comments! That's really neat that your parents 50th will be on our wedding day!!! I definitely feel lucky now

Thanks Jennifer! We are honeymooning in WDW and OMG I can't wait!!! We're going to be there for about 9 days which I'm super excited for because the last time Eric and I went (the first time we've ever gone together), we were only there for 4 days total and we had to rush to fit everything in! And we didn't get a lot in too, so this time it will be nice since we can take our time

Thanks you SO much for that info on vegetarians at WDW!!!!!!!! I'm totally going to call now and make sure they know. That is so awesome! We are going to the Biergarten too and I was also concerned.

Wendy, just caught up and everything looks wonderful! I love the hanger, headpiece, BM dress, and flower choices! You are getting so close! Are you going to do a Pre-Trip Report?

I seriously can't believe it's less than 3 months until the wedding. Thank you for your comments! I never thought about doing a Pre-Trip Report actually. I might have to do one!

Eric and I have been searching for new clothes to wear on the honeymoon. I've been on the hunt for another dress to wear. We went in Anthropologie yesterday and I found a perfect dress!

I'm still waiting on the invites from our Etsy seller. She has sent us the digital proof but it's only the wording and not the real design of the invite. So I'm still waiting for our mock copy to show everyone!

 

[shippedtosea]

Oh very pretty dress! I need more dresses as well, I was thinking of going shopping soooon!

I actually just got a call from the chef yesterday. just so you know I don't think they have an easy time of sticking with the theme, but she said that a lot of the salads are fine and there are potatoes and some pasta (german pasta type stuff....can't think of the name right now) she also offered to make me eggplant parm, stir fried veggies and rice or pasta. Which don't stick with theme at all...but I am sure will be fine.

We feel the same way. we had only 5 days last time and this time we have 10! I was wondering how long you'd be there because we might run into each other! we over lap by 3 days.

Thank you! I'm slowly building a new dress collection for the honeymoon

The food sounds yummy! I figured it would be hard to stick with the German theme only since German food is so heavily influenced by meat But the alternative options she mentioned sound wonderful. I love eggplant parm.

Awesome! Maybe we'll have to plan to run into each other while we're there, how fun! Staying extra days will make it so much more fun I think since there's more time to relax and take your time.

Eric and I have ordered our guest book! Earlier I mentioned that we'll be using a Disney storybook collection as our guest book and we'll have our guests leave us special notes in the margins of their favorite stories. This is the one we decided on:

It has all of my favorite classic stories like Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty, Peter Pan, and Alice in Wonderland. Plus is has some newer stories like the Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast, Aladdin, and the Lion King!!

We're going to also have it present at our at home reception so family & friends who weren't at the wedding can leave their notes.

 

[ChocoKat]

Oooh the headband came out beautiful! And so did the flower for the MOH.

I am struggling with my own fascinator choices I am home sick today and trying to make up my mind about it.

I adore your new dress!!!

Hey Wendy!
I love the guest book! We've been working on our non-traditional guestbook too! I think it's so fun and unique to have a different type of book. The dress is gorgeous! Isn't it so much fun building our honeymoon wardrobes? I love it!!

 

[shippedtosea]

I still love the guestbook idea!

I am doing the same with dresses!

It would def be fun to run into each other! we may have to plan it.

More time for me and DF just meant more things we were shoving into the days hahaha....I donno how relaxing it will be.....I'd say more fun and crazy!

 

[*Pixiedust1438*]

What a great idea for the guest book! It's very cute!

 

[weedee]

I got my Esty made dress hanger in the mail! I actually got it a while ago but couldn't get the picture off my phone until now. I'm super happy with it

Tomorrow is my final fitting for my wedding dress I'm so excited to finally take it home so I can try on my accessories with it!

Etsy has some amazing fascinators...I would highly recommend my seller actually, she was fantastic to work with.

Thanks! I knew I didn't want a typical, sign on the dotted line guest book. I'm really excited to get it in the mail now. I LOVE building the honeymoon wardrobe. It's so much fun!!!

Sounds great to me!!! We're probably gonna be the same way!! There's too much fun stuff to do at Disney. I just hope we'll get some time to relax by the pool

What a great idea for the guest book! It's very cute!

Thanks

Love the hanger...and you made my smile, I love the Etsy/Esty typos lol

 

[pezaddict231]

the hanger looks awesome! I really like them but I worry it won't hold my dress...do you think it could hold a heavy satin dress or is it more for lighter things?

 

[shippedtosea]

the hanger is great....i kind of want me!

Hi Wendy!
I am loving all of your plans for the wedding! All the locations sound beautiful, I just love the Grand Floridian! Your dress is absolutely stunning on you as well. I think the guestbook idea and your wedding dress hanger are so cute too! I might have to order one of those hangers, they are just too cool of an idea. Looking foward to reading more!
