Tammy & Randy's Wishes VR:7/14/10~WP/Napa/France-PROF PICS!!!!!

[padisneyfour]

I love the inspiration board Tammy!! You have a lot of great ideas!! I have been wanting to create something like that myself... Do you know what site are you going to use?

Kristin, Thank you. It was sort of nice seeing all the different little pieces together. I have started one on bridalcanvas.com but when I searched there were multiple sites that these could be done on.... I will keep you posted.

Tammy,

I was so far behind. You've done so much. I love the Mickey's you made for the flowers (and on the vase). They are adorable! Your shoes looked great all blinged out! Oh my goodness, your ring is beautiful. I would die having to wait so long to wear it, but that is part of what makes it even more special. You are doing a great job on everything. Oh, the ears, wow, I'd never seen the white hat with the black ears, I really like that (like you said, it's different) but just for that too, it's really cute. The white are adorable also, no matter which you choose they'll be great.

Patty, Thanks for all the kind words. I have been enjoying all the planning/projects. I plan on using the black ears on the hat ( dh and DDs all prefer the black ears- I think they actually turned out better than the white ones) and adding some bling to the veil.

I still have a couple "special" projects in the works. Thanks for reading....

We have made some decisions about specific venues. we def want the wedding pavilion and most likely the whitehall room/patio. we want a DP party( I love Wishes, but Dh and DDs love Fantasmic-its runs a close second for me) called DFTW with preliminary info. We have pretty much narrowed resorts for our room block down after talking with family. time line for site visit/questions( though we know what venues we want ) and tentative date range for PS will work!!! ( I am excited about this- it means disney next year in Dec. for DDs birthday too!) though nothing is def. everything looks like it will fall in place! I am still working on a few special projects and will post in future..... thanks for reading.

 

[padisneyfour]

We have booked rooms for Dec 2009 for DDs birthday and hopefully a Planning session( to be confirmed down the line!) We haven't been to disney in Dec. We were scheduled to go last dec. but had to change plans at last minute. I am excited to see the castle and the decorations! They look beautiful!

OHH!! When in Dec?? We'll be at Ft Wilderness 12/6 - 12/10 before our cruise!

 

[padisneyfour]

Dec 12-18. DD birthday is 12/17. Hoping things work out and we can do our PS then( will have to wait and see...)

Tammy,
I just came accross your PJ and all I have to say is WOW! I am so impressed! I love all the ideas and all the DIY projects you're working on. Hopefully my DFTW will be the month after your VR (and it looks like we want the same locations!).

P.S. Your VR is on my b-day!!!

 

[padisneyfour]

Amanda, Thanks. I have really enjoyed my diy projects! It is so cool we are looking at same venues! The date we want for our VR is our wedding anniversary as well as my Bday Too! My youngest DD shares your name. we can share the planning process together... Good luck with your planning!

Another disbride inspired me today to look for something unique for our VR . We did a unity candle when we got married and we want to include our dds in a special part of the ceremony ( not a candle though) so I thought ok a sand ceremony, but that still didn't seem to fit. We do collect sand on all our various trips - we have bottles of sand mix from grand canyon to maine to florida , the outer banks and back again. The sand part fit ,but the idea of a container of sand was just missing something, so I did some looking online and found a neat site where you can get an hourglass and then add the different colored sands( one for each of us-DH, me and each DD) to the hourglass. The sample ceremony reads
"for centuries, the hourglass has been considered an enduring symbol of the passage of time, so its is appropriate that this hourglass represents the renewal of your vows and your lives as a family"
I liked that part! I am so excited! Some of the sets really aren't that much more than some of the sand ceremony sets I have seen( if you want to spend lots you can...) so I think we have found our fit. It won't matter if the sand gets mixed because it is suppose to.... Sorry for the rambling, but I was excited to find this! Thanks for reading more to come....

 

[Disney-Bride2010]

That idea sounds perfect for your VR!

 

[29apr00]

wow that sounds really nice!

 

[padisneyfour]

That idea sounds perfect for your VR!

wow that sounds really nice!

Thanks ladies. I am excited. I know it is still basically a sand ceremony and sand in a container but I liked the idea of the "Time" part represented by the hourglass... now just deciding which one to order. I will keep you posted and try to get some pics to post too. Thanks for reading...

Tammy, I love the hour glass idea! I think it is going to be wonderful!

Tammy, I love the hour glass idea! I think it is going to be wonderful!

Theresa, THANK YOU! I think it will work well!

 

[padisneyfour]

here is a pic of one of the hourglasses offered. this is actually the wedding day one. the next thing will be to decide on sand colors. If we use birthstones it would be two white, a red and a blue so I am not sure on that, may have to explore other color options....

 

[camara381]

what a cute idea love the hourglass!!

 

[Goldeelox9]

Love the hourglass Idea!

 

[padisneyfour]

what a cute idea love the hourglass!!

Love the hourglass Idea!

Thank you ladies! Dh liked the idea too!(that was easy...) anyway, now we are deciding on sand colors- I think we have it figured out but will wait to make sure on that. I think I even figured out a song.... "candle on the water" just didn't seem to fit since we will be using sand(though I love the song) ,but will have to wait and talk to DFTW down the line. The song I have in mind is a disney song, so I figure we will be able to use it or at least part of it( its sort of long).... I plan on ordering the hourglass over the weekend once we decide on which style we want. more to come. Thanks for reading....

 

[padisneyfour]

The Hourglass is ordered. Did choose the wedding day hourglass in the end. The sand colors have been selected and ordered too. Have started to look at different Officiants for the ceremony, but will contact down the line.thats all for now. thanks for reading...
