Your dress is beautiful! What a romantic day you will have just the 2 of you!

Thankyou
I can't wait! We've got so much fun stuff planned for the wedding & the honeymoon, I'm really going to hate coming home 
I've just been reading your trip report - It looks like you had a great trip!! Your MK pics are lovely
I've been off ill from work the past couple of days but I've just had some wonderful news that has cheered me up! My dress has come in !!!!
You have no idea how happy I am!! I have been soooo stressed out that it wasnt going to arrive in time, only to find out its arrived a month EARLY!!
This is truly the best omen I could ever have wished for!!
I only chose/bought it in April this year, they said it would be here for mid-august and I have been stressed out ever since because I'd heard rumours that the Maggie Sottero factory was running 3 months behind
But obviously some pixie dust fell on my dress because its found its way over here 
Anyways, I've just realised that I need to start properly updating this thread with all our photos & plans!
Our planner is Amy and she is wonderful For floral we've got Rosie We have booked Randy & Stan for photo & video 
We're in the middle of booking Rev.Miller 
Now I just need to chose someone for my hair & make-up and then contact Carolyn Allens about dress steaming and tux hire.
During our time in Orlando we are doing a bit of resort hopping and are staying at Universal Hard Rock Hotel, Villa @ Wilderness Lodge and Boardwalk Inn
We are literally right in the middle of our crazy planning stage, where basically everything has to be decided & done ASAP

Hi Queenie
From your ticker we are getting married roughly around the same time! Hows your planning going?? Unfortunately I didnt make it to any of the shows, have you?? I'm sorry to hear about the stress you are having with your dress 
What has the bridal store said to you?? I'm sure it will all be fine on the day 
I am so happy for you that your dress came in early! Definitely someat work there! One less thing to worry about!
Can't wait to hear more plans!
Thankyou honey
I've just been uploading some of my photos to do an update on my floral & decor plans so it should be on here in a minute
I know everyone on here loves photos just as much as me, so here are some of our ideas 
I'm still waiting to here back from Rosie about costs and whether we can have the options we'd like, so all this might change 
For the cake & champagne reception and our dinner on the yacht we are going for a beach style.
Our cake is going to be similar to this :
Table centerpiece :
Napkins to be tied like this :
I'll also be buying some place card holders, favours etc.. but I havent chose these yet, more lovely shopping
We've bought these Lei's that Stitch is going to give to us as a present

My bouquet is going to be a hand tied garden style, similar to the one below, but with yellow & pink roses, stephanotis, lilac freesia and some of those white flowers with the tiger print in the middle of them - not sure what they are called 
The stems will be wrapped in ivory, with pale green ribbon wrapped around them with pink pearl 'buttons' and the top one will be a hidden mickey
Den's buttonhole - he chose this

I love your stuff, our wedding is themed around Cinderella's coach and I'm having so much fun picking out all the little bits and bobs to compliment the theme.
We had an issue with the dress where they made it with the wrong neckline then claimed it was my fault somehow. They took it away and are supposedly putting the right neckline on it now but I'm just having to keep my fingers crossed!

For the ceremony we are going for a fairytale garden theme, with pink, yellow & green being the colours
Down the aisle we are having columns with skirting and sitting on top will be vases filled with petals and a candle on top, similar to this
On the altar table I have bought some lanterns, one to go at each end with a candle in them, and the cutest ring bearer pillow will sit in the middle of them with petals sprinkled around
We are also planning on doing a rose ceremony, and will have a red rose each with some babys breath and a ribbon wrapped around

Do you have a planning journal? I'd love to see some of the stuff you've chosen All the fairytale & coach stuff is sooo sweet, I've seen some really gorgeous things on the internet - It was a tough choice between going down that road or the garden & beach.Picking out the little bits is what I've found the most fun aswell! It really is like being a little girl again, its fab
awww no
Thats terrible! I hope everything gets sorted out for you honey The dessert party is in Japan, so I've been trying to stick with that theme, so have come up with this!
Some glow vases filled with fish confetti to be placed on the actual buffet table, and then the little water fountain will be placed on our table with some confetti sprinkled around

My parents bought us this to use as our cake topper for our cake back home in the UK, its beautiful
Bit off topic, but these are the earrings I'm thinking of wearing. I dont have pierced ears, so these are clip ons. I'm thinking of going for a bit of sparkle and with pearls as my jewellery style for the day. Still need to pick out all my other bits though - more shopping is needed

I absolutely love all of your choices so far! The frog is too cute, it kills me lol
I really think I'm becoming addicted to ebay!! I can't stay away from it!! I keep buying lots of little bits, I'm going to end up taking 5 suitcases of stuff with me to disney
I've just won these cute little photo charms - I'm going to photos of my family in them and either attach them to my bouquet, garter or bag
