Sabrina & Jim's PJ: 05/26 Please don't ask....

[lpizzuro123]

Love all your stuff so far. I have a questions about your Cinderella glass candle. Where did you get it? We are looking to do a glass cylinder like that for our candle ceremony. I found one where we could put our names and date on it but I would love it if we could also get Mickey and Minnie on it. Could you please let me know where you got it?

Thanks,
Linda

 

[lpizzuro123]

Also love those gift boxes. Did you make them yourself or did you get them someplace?

Thank you so much. I found them on ebay The glass candles, I believe I remember seeing mickey. But you can always email the person and ask if they can do that for you. same with the favor boxes. I'll try and find the link for you for the candles. I remember the company being hard to find.

 

[lpizzuro123]

Thanks, I'll check out ebay right now, but if you find the link or the name of the company I would really appreciate it.

Linda

lpizzuro123, here is the link:
http://cgi.ebay.ca/Mickey-Minnie-Pe...20939QQcmdZViewItemQQ_trksidZp1742.m153.l1262
this is for a different type of candle base but like I said, you can email them and tell them that you want the cylinder one and I'm sure it wouldn't be a problem

 

[lpizzuro123]

Thanks so much. I just checked out their website and sent them an email.

I'll let you know the outcome. This is why I love these boards so much.

I heard back from them and they do have a Mickey and Minnie design on another item (the one you sent me). They said if I order the Cinderella one (I guess because of the cost factor) they would swap out the Mickey and Minnie design. I want to show it to my DF this weekend so we can decide.

Thanks so much for your help.

I love your unity candle. It matches the isle of the runner we are having at the WP!

 

[Keira1387]

I love the idea for the monogram!!

 

[OceanGdss]

Here's something I couldn't resist adding: Hidden mickeys

my laptop battery disconnected last night and when I went to plug it back in I was the hidden mickey

I love it!! I'm a hidden mickey nut...so COOL!

You are most welcome. I'm glad I could help

That sounds so nice. I got to see this! I have an idea of what I want. I'm going to make it myself. I'll post a pic when I have an sample done

I love the idea for the monogram!!

Thanks I thought it was sooooo cute when I saw it and it looks relatively easy to make.

I love it!! I'm a hidden mickey nut...so COOL!

YAY! My DF thought I was nuts last night. I made him take the picture. He just didn't get it.

I just needed to vent about a couple of things. The first thing is about my pink wedding. Everybody in my family, actually anybody who knows me, knows that my favorite color is pink. I've been announcing for several years now that I would like to have a pink wedding and for the most part it will be pink. I'd like my guests to participate and have something pink on if entirely possible. My mom has already been dress hunting and knows she will buy a pink dress. She sent me a picture on the weekend to see if I liked the dress she liked. She can wear whatever she wants and doesn't need to check in with me but she wanted to for some reason? Anyway, so my dad asked her what the picture was about and she said, "I want to ask Sabrina if she likes the dress". My dad responded with, "why do you want a pink dress?". (Because for the 900th time I'm having a pink theme or pink colors or whatever you want to call it). Anyway, he sarcastically made a point of asking if he had to wear something pink. I don't know why but this kind of annoyed me. I'm not all bridezilla (sort of a random note but the spell check just asked me if I was trying to spell defibrillator when I put bridezilla ) about what people wear and I haven't even requested that he wear a pink tie but what if I wanted him to? What if I would like the men to have pink ties. Is this such a big deal? Is it really that emasculating I mean honestly, it's a color. In medieval times pink was only put on guys. My brother who is my man of honor is against this idea too. Hello! you're in the wedding party, you'll wear what I tell you. I didn't get a say on your wedding colors when I was in your bridal party so shhhhush. and that's my rant.

Also, I'm not very traditional and I'm not going to have a hard core traditional wedding either so this really shouldn't be a shock but may cause a stir for some people or family members. I have never envisioned walking down the aisle with my father or my parents or whatever. It was always a journey I planned on taking by myself. Many years ago the thought of it bothered me because of what it meant and represented many years ago (that the bride was an object to be given away by her father). Although the meaning is now gone and it's sort of tradition it just bothers me. I have no idea how my dad would actually feel about this happening or not but I'm the only daughter so it's his only chance. If this means a lot to him should I just suck it up and go along with it or do I do what I want and possibly hurt my dad?

 

[Lynn5700]

Here are some more goodies for the welcome bags:

My cat always has a paw in these pictures.I like to think she is excited about the goodies too

Here are the boxes I want to use for my favors:

the will go in here. I wanted cinderella boxes but couldn't find any and I couldn't really justify putting mickey ears into cinderella boxes.

Here's something I couldn't resist adding: Hidden mickeys

my laptop battery disconnected last night and when I went to plug it back in I was the hidden mickey

Something I forgot to add in the previous flower post. I want to add these candles on the tables as well:

they have cinderella etching on them and will have my name and DF's name and our wedding date

HAHA I thought the same exact thing with my lap top!!! I was like "OOH a hidden Mickey lol".

 

[Lynn5700]

Family is the worse when it comes to your wedding lol. Don't let it get to you though.If you want them to wear the pink tie they are going to have to suck it up,what's the big deal lol.

haha this reminds me of an argument with Tim.I love pink,my wedding colors are pink as well.I told him that he is going to wear a pink rose as his bout to match my bouquet,at first he said he wanted a cream rose i said no pink and that was the end of that lol. He doesn't care anymore.

I would make them all wear pink now anyway lol. No JK.Seriously though it will be ok,men just get funny when it comes to pink.

Here are some hugs! it will be ok

I also walked myself down the aisle, although for a bit different reasons (my father lost his chance after his actions this past October)

I know it hurt him not walking me down the aisle, but I did what I wanted to do as it felt was right.

You could always have your fiance meet you half way down the aisle and walk the rest of the way up to you as it is a journey together and no longer a journey with your parents?

 

[Lynn5700]

Oh I missed the part about your dad walking you down the aisle. I would talk to him and see how he feels about it.Tell him how you feel about it as well.

Personally if my Dad wanted to do it I would let him,but that's just me,I can't imagine him not.Seriously though you have to do what your heart tells you to do and do what feels right.

 

[PrincessBride010103]

my honest opinion is that if it means a lot to your dad, you should suck it up and let him walk you down the aisle.

i know at this point, i would crawl down the aisle on my hands and knees if it made my dad happy. hes done so much for me and this wedding that id do just about anything he requested of me

First off, i LOVE the pink theme!! If I wear ALL pink can I come?? LoL j/k

As for the father issue, my father is not walking me down the aisle, he is not even invited to the wedding. Issues there. Its a hard decision, but one I am making and standing by. I haven't yet decided if I would like my mother to walk me down the aisle, but I think I may just walk on my own, then have my mom "give me away" at the end, I don't know. But if you feel strongly against him walking you down the aisle...stick with your beliefs. It is YOUR day.

Hey!
Listen...your dad will wear whatever you tell him too.....he might not like it but he will do it. As for Lee, He clearly understands that he will wear whatever you pick for him because as you've said we've been through it..we know what its like i don't think it will be hard to get the guests to follow the color theme either.....just make sure it's clear in your invite!

As for the walking down the isle....i thought i knew what i wanted well in advance....and then as time went on i changed my mind.... a few times lol so wait to decide and talk to your dad when you feel comfortable about it is my suggestion but in the end doing whatever makes you comfortable and less stressed with all the other crazy wedding stuff is whats key!

Aw..thanks for the hugs. It's funny because usually people just give you a hard time at the beginning and then just go along with it anyway, so why fuss about it and give me a heart attack? YAY, you're having a pink wedding too so you'll appreciate all the pink wedding stuff I'll post in the future. Fun!

I also walked myself down the aisle, although for a bit different reasons (my father lost his chance after his actions this past October)

LOVE the idea of DF meeting me half way and then taking the rest of the journey together. That's so beautiful

I see your point. My mind can change a million times and I'll have to talk to my dad. I don't even know if that's a big deal to him or not.

First off, i LOVE the pink theme!! If I wear ALL pink can I come?? LoL j/k

But if you feel strongly against him walking you down the aisle...stick with your beliefs. It is YOUR day.

If you wear all pink you can DEFINITELY come to the wedding. the more pink the merrier

Lee is definitely getting something pink. No ifs, ands or buts there. Just not sure what yet. I'm waiting for Jim to pick if he is going to wear something pink or not because Jim needs to stand out that day. If he doesn't, Lee gets a pink tie AND a pink flower. I think I know the answer to this already but you're wearing pink right, Melissa side note: I found the most adorable pink flower girl dresses with crinoline at Winners yesterday if you have a girl
