[irisbud]

I absolutley love your programs! They look fabulous!

I think your favors will be great with the right mugs! I agree, shredded paper would be very nice in the boxes. Good idea with the ribbions!

Can't wait to read more!

 

[Keira1387]

The programs look amazing! I love Martha Stewart!

 

[ClemsonGirl]

Toni I LOVE the new pics!! Your favors are going to be perfect! And I love the batman cufflinks! DF is obsessed with Batman as well. There are too many great choices out there for cufflinks!

 

[DisneyBrideToni]

Toni, I'm so impressed with your programs... I'm making my own as well... Was it a kit that you bought or did you just buy all the paper goods seperate?

I loooove the coffee favors!

Thank you! I actually bought the papers seperate. I bought a pack of vellum for the inside part and then I got the cardstock. You can't tell but the paper is actually heavy. It feels like a greeting card. I was looking at so many different papers and then I saw the two sided one and loved it. They are both of the shades of pink I am doing so I thought it was perfect. The paper was on sale too for .20 cents!!

I just thought I would share a coincidence with you.... I was married on February 2, 2002 and my name is also Toni... lol...

My husband want the date 02/02/02 so he would not forget and guess who forgot our first anniversary....

Congrats and everything is looking great so far!

WOW!!!!! That is crazy!!! How cool is that, I will be getting married on your anniversary!! I said it would be a perfect date because its groundhog day so my df shouldn't forget our anniversary!...lol. I wish it could be like that movie groundhogs day and just keep repeating over and over again....lol

Toni great job on the programs! Cant wait to see the "real" mug! Those will be really nice favors!

Thanks!! I can't wait to see the real mug too....LOL. He said that if I keep bugging him he won't do it. He has to feel creative first..he said I can't rush an artist. PUHLEASE!!!

Tell that boy to hurry up; I really want to see those mugs

ETA: The programs are fabulous! The makeup bags are so cute; can I have your FMIL, lol?

I will tell him that he needs to hurry!! I have pictures to share darn it!!...LOL He doesn't want to make Disney brides mad!

Toni, I love how you said that this was "your attempt" at programs. They're *gorgeous!* They look professionally done. Seriously.

I also love the cufflinks-- I got the same ones for Rob! Except I was a little more indecisive... I got him four different kinds so he could choose which ones he liked the best (oops!).

I also love the garter. That's great!

LOL it was, it was an attempt but I guess I got lucky!! It is actually kind of fun to make your own stuff as opposed to buying it! That is so cool that you got the same cufflinks. DF is such a batman freak. He thinks he is batman...lol.

Toni -- The programs are absolutely GORGEOUS!! I sent the link and pix to myself so that I will know what to aspire to.
The favor ideas are so great, and very thoughtful. I think your guests will love them!

Aww you are so sweet!!! I am so glad you think so. I was worried about them! I wanted something a little different for the favors so I thought hey everyone can use a coffee mug. Of course for the kids we are getting something else but I am hoping everyone will like the favors.

I absolutley love your programs! They look fabulous!

I think your favors will be great with the right mugs! I agree, shredded paper would be very nice in the boxes. Good idea with the ribbions!

Can't wait to read more!

Thank you!! Yeah I have to get me some of that shredded paper. I didn't like the tissue paper too much. Oh and the ribbon thing was my mom's idea so I can't take too much credit for it...lol. Although she isn't here so maybe I will take the credit...

The programs look amazing! I love Martha Stewart!

Me too!!!! Martha Stewart crafts are great!!!! My invitations are Martha Stewart too. If you want elegant she is the way to go!


Thank you everyone for your compliments on the programs!!! I was really worried about them and you have all set my mind at ease!

Aww thanks!! You can never have to many coffee cups!!..lol. I actually like the cufflinks too. I was surprised because I am not into that batman stuff like him but I saw them on Ebay and they were only 14.00 so I said hey why not..lol. He loves them so that is whats important. he let me have the wedding in disney so a pair of $14.00 cufflinks was the least I could do...

Toni ~ All of your plans look wonderful! I LOVE the cufflinks and garters! Also, I think you did a wonderful job on your program. Did you just stick the vellum in the printer or did you need to get a special type? They look great!

Thank you! I did stick it in the printer but on manual feed. I did it at work so this printer (its a laser printer) has a manual feed option. I did the same with the cardstock but I think the paper is fine in any printer. I don't think you should have a problem.

 

[BaBeeCee14]

I love the programs Toni! YOu did a great job!

 

[Lizby]

Ooooh everything looks great, Toni! I love the makeup bags (that was so sweet of FMIL!) and I really like the purse and locket you bought! I saw that purse while I was there and almost bought it myself. Those cufflinks are sooo cool! Just make sure that DF knows how to put them on before the big day...my DH and his best men didn't know how and two of them got broken and they had to pin them. I don't know what guys would ever do without us!

Last but not least, I love your programs! They definitely have the simple, yet elegant feel to them and are not cheesy at all.

She is a sweet lady. I lucked out!! I will make sure DF knows. I can just see him breaking them or something...lol. Thank you for the program compliment!!!! That is exactly what I wanted!

 

[jennifaerie]

Well, I hope my programs come out that nicely. I'm doing the do-it-yourself thing, and I swear whenever I try, it looks like a two-year-old did it!

I caved and gave him the cufflinks tonight. It sounds like (since I got him four pairs!), he's going to give some to his groomsmen. We'll see which one he chooses!

I am sure you can make them great!! I have to say it was pretty easy. The stamps made it easier but it took me a while to get it straight and not all crooked.

That would be cool to give the rest of the cufflinks to his groomsmen. That is a good idea. I wonder which he will pick!! You must keep me posted.

 

[jennifaerie]

There were four pairs:
- Batman
- Fire Extinguishers
- Wrenches
- Levels

He opted for the fire extinguishers and wrenches. He's going to give the Batman ones to one of the groomsmen who's big into comic books.

Love your programs Toni! You did an awesome job!! The mug and coffee is so cute too!!

 

[Flurbee]

Toni,

I like all your new updates!! The programs look really awesome and I love your favor idea!!! I can't wait to see the actual mugs.... I noticed in your program that your df has a stepmother....This may sound like a dumb question, but how are you incorporating her into the sand ceremony? I am trying to figure out how we are going to do that with my DH's mom and stepmom for our vow renewal....I originally wanted to do the unity candle, but I am not sure how that will work, since the mothers have to go up first to light the candle.....Are you having the mothers carry the sand up before the ceremony?? Just curious how you are doing this....

I love your programmes - they look fantastic!

LOL well that is cute though. I am sure his groomsmen will love them. It is nice to let them have a little something of their personality since the wedding is ALWAYS about the bride.

Love your programs Toni! You did an awesome job!! The mug and coffee is so cute too!!

Thank you!!!! I can't wait for the real mugs!

Just curious how you are doing this....

Actually, I had thought about this but Bobby said she doesn't need to be involved in it so she won't be doing anything with the sand ceremony. One idea I was given was to have one of the mom's carry up the center container for the sand ceremony but you have candles....so....hmm...its too bad you can't have three candles!! I am sure the wedding planner could come up with some idea. I am sure they have to deal with that all the time. If I think of something in the mean time I will let you know, I would love to hear your idea when you come up with it!!!

I love your programmes - they look fantastic!

Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!

hi toni! first time posting here, but wanted to tell you that your programs look AMAZING! the martha stewart crafts are GREAT!

Martha Stewart is a goddess!! Gotta love her!!! I know that you know what you are talking about too because you are the craft queen!!!!! I LOVEEEEEEE everything about your wedding. You make me want to dye my crinny pink!!!

 

[Flurbee]

Toni,

Thanks for the good idea....I am still kind of back and forth between the unity candle and the sand ceremony....If I can't think of anything better I will probably do what you suggested about having Jake's stepmom carry the middle container.....I will definitely ask my wedding planner....It is really not an option for us NOT to include her in the ceremony...let's just say, that would be BAD!!!!!

Matron of Honor Gown​

Well we finally have a Matron of Honor Gown. My Matron of Honor is trying to get pregnant so she wanted to hold off as long as possible to get a gown. Anyway, my mom and Aunt (MOH's mom) went to David's Bridal today to pick up my veil. While they were there they looked at the dresses and found a dress that they thought would be perfect for her. They immediately called me to look it up online and I thought it was perfect too. MOH still didn't see it but she says she trusts us...LOL. It is a perfect dress for her because if she DOES get pregnant it is flowy enough that she can have a baby bump and it will still fit. So here it is. The picture is also the exact color which is azalea.
