Gah I'm a total sucker for bedazzled shoes. Love them!! All of your stationery looks beautiful. Congrats on booking your honeymoon! That is one of the best feelings, I think.
Thanks! And yes, booking the honeymoon is a seriously AWESOME feeling!!
Your invitations look great! Putting a spot for resort and reservation number - genius!!
Thank you! As much as I would love to take full credit for it, I stole it from a fellow disbride!
Sarah, I missed you! I love everything... your programs and shoes are especially beautiful!
And LOL
with your 80s veil. I think you should wear one anyway. You can bring it back!!!
Yes? No?
HAHAHA
As much as I would love to wear that veil, Im gonna stick with mine..I would hate for so many rhinestones to go to waste!
Thank you!
Bahahaha, Sarah, I'm sorry to laugh but your dream about the 80's veil made me laugh! (I think we all get dreams like that!) I hope your veil gets in soon so you can get a good nights sleep!
Congratulations, on the new apartment!!!!
Well thank goodness they called today and said it would be here tomorrow...whew! I was really starting to FREAK OUT!
I had just told my mom minutes before that they had until Friday before I went bridezilla on somebody! Its not that I must have it right now, but the principle of telling me it would be here weeks ago and then telling me the same thing over and over...so frustrating! Thanks, I am so excited to move into the apartment!
Everything, everything looks great! Love love love the shoes! =]
Sorry to hear about the stress at work.. I must say it has to be something in the air. Because I have just about been the same. Half the times DF doesn't even know what to do with me. Stressed isn't the word! Let's home we all get a break soon! hehe.
As far as the meeting extended family situation goes, I can totally relate. DF has very little family, but at least 95% other than immediate family, I will be meeting the day we get married. Nerve wracking isn't even the word. I won't even know who anybody is on that side as I walk down the aisle! lol. Aoy. At least you get a bit of a heads up and can know some names haha! Good luck though! And have lots of fun and take lots of pictures! =] =]
Thanks! The family thing went well! And I totally thought about you all weekend because 2/3 are from Jersey!!! Too funny!
ahhh where have i been??? oh yeah, wednesday was resort drama, yesterday was spider drama
so i love your shoes!! you may have to tell me how to do it, because I may have to if I don't find something i love.
the invites are beautiful!! i love them!!
you have so much done
hopefully the dramatics end soon--you need stress free living right now!!
congrats on the apartment!! how exciting!! that's awesome you'll be the first tenants!!
if you need anything... you know where i am!!
Ummmm...yeah. I read all about your spider and resort drama. You poor poor thing! I love the flops you and Jen found..they are PERFECT for your event! And thank you for all your kind words, there is so much to be excited about now since its all coming up so quickly!!
Wow, lots of updates! Your invites look gorgeous. And I love the person that you found to do your programs, they look like they will be really nice! I was on a Carnival Cruise that stopped at Nassau. We mostly spent the day shopping and walking around the main area, and then went over to Paradise Island to check out Atlantis. I think Atlantis is really much, much better than the rest of Nassau, so if you can afford one of the excursions there I would do it. You'll have so much fun though no matter what! I know that Carnival is the least expensive cruise line and sometimes gets a bad rap as being "lesser" than the others, but we absolutely adored it
Totally agree 100%! Carnival does get a bad rap...its all about what you make it though. I mean, Ive been on several cruise lines and while none of them were exceptionally perfect in every way there was definitely something to enjoy. We enjoy carnival and are sooo looking forward to the places we will go! Thanks for your compliments on the invites and programs!

So this past weekend went great. I met DF's extended family and loved everyone. They were so nice, and cooky (just like me and my family) so I felt right at home! Now I know that sounds odd, but really its a good thing! Everyone really seems to be looking forward to November which is something I was a little worried about. I didnt hear one (not one, zero, zilch, nada) comment about Mickey & Minnie, the castle, or any of those "jokes" we all hate!---which as you all know is such a breath of fresh air! I got to get to know them before the wedding which is great because then it wont be the awkward "welcome to the family" crap...after this weekend I totally feel like I fit in with everyone and am part of the family. I am so relieved..really!
So were doing some big changes with a few things. We've cut the castle off the cake
Bobby doesnt want it and would have been a pill on our wedding night if I would have surprised him with it...Im sad and disappointed but I guess I have to give in sometimes...lame. Anyways, we will just add more spray roses and put the P on top. Can you tell Im bummed about it?
We have decided against bringing our own floral that we made. Yes, we spent some serious time and money on them but to ship them down, pay someone to set up, and then ship them back we are well over what we would pay to get Disney or an outside vendor to do them for us. Which brings me to a whole 'nother dilemma. Which type of flowers to fill the rooms. I know I want at least half the tables with candelabras on them, the other half can be the silver bowl with floral in them. I want all white flowers but I dont know what is budget friendly and will also look nice. Any ideas?
Its going to be so nice not to have to ship a bunch of stuff and pay someone to set it up and then have to ship it home too...that was turning into such a headache...at least for us. If anybody knows approximately the cost of floral going in those silver bowls and candelabras I would be so grateful if they shared their info! Ive emailed the floral planner and am waiting on a response.
I would love to alternate these between tables, and have the flowers all white.
And I like these too
What do you guys think? And does anyone have any ideas of which flowers could help keep the cost down? I really love the first photo and that is my dream! Just not sure how much they generally cost...lol. Champagne taste on a Beer budget...story of my life.
Everything looks great! Can't wait to read more as you are getting so close. 
But reading your info has been a huge help, your ideas & pics have saved me a lot of time and work! 
I guess I owe you one (or ten)!

(That was my rational side talking...lol! My emotional side fights her a lot!) Anyways, we are going on a 5 night cruise out of Miami the morning after our wedding! It goes to Turks & Caicos, Half Moon Cay, and Nassau. Neither of us have ever been to the first two ports, so it should be exciting! Not to mention its our first "real" vacation we'll ever take totally alone! Sooo coool! 
I know you guys dont need a picture, but they make it so much more fun! 
but evidently it does. Ive called like 3 times and im sure they curse me everytime I do..they keep saying well call you when it comes in..maybe Im just impatiently freaking out 
it sucks when we can't win all the battles
