I cant believe it will all be at an end soon! gosh, 37 days ... make sure you enjoy these days leading upto the wedding!! no stressing!! just enjoying!! just smiling!! hehe

I know i will! I only wish you were in the states I would totally want my dis sister with me!!<3
 
Priceline NEGOTIATOR!! woot woot!

Okay, so I never understood priceline, I never believed it... and


Last week Vin and I decided it would be best if we stayed in the hotel the night before the wedding (Our flight is a 5am)

So, a friend of mine said, the hotel- courtyard by marriot- by the airport- 3 star, that I had called and was priced 245 for that sunday- was ON priceline..:confused:

So, I said, yeah and I bet you have to bid like 200 bucks, and she said "Jenny bid the lowest as see what happens"

So, for shoots and giggles, I put in 55 dollars......

for the courtyard marriott....

and guess what!

:dance3:
Your Price Was Accepted

Congratulations, your price of $55 was accepted by Courtyard By Marriott New York Jfk Airport. Save even more when you add a rental car below

WHATTTTTT:scared1::scared1::scared1::scared1::scared1::scared1:

And:banana::banana::banana::banana:

So can you believe that? Check it out girls! ITs so awesome!!:dance3:
 
whattttt??? ive never heard of that before!!!???

that sounds too good to be true!! i want a go!! haha


yay for you!! thats well good :goodvibes
 

lucky!
I wasnt happy with mine :(

The more i looked at it the less i liked it :(
no worries-you still have time to do another trial if you want. i think the half up half down will look so nice on you! $55 by JFK? that's awesome! so excited you got that price. i think that is one of the hotels you can see off the belt. if so it looks nice and since it probably has a convention center for businesses and usually (in my experience from traveling with work) they are really nice.
 
That is fantastic news about the hotel, $190 saving on the standard rate is fantastic.
I actually plan to use Priceline for my hotel in San Diego in september as i've heard you can usually get great 4* hotels that are normally around $250-$300 per night for about $80 :)
 
Ok, Jenny you know I love you dearly, and I am so happy you got 99% of your stuff done... but... A 5 FOOT SIGN AS NO BIG DEAL!!!! I think only you would consider a task that just typing scares the bejeezes out of me is no "biggie" :rotfl2::rotfl2: I'm kidding! I am soooo happy you are almost done, but I am sad... no more jenny projects, what will we all do!

Yay for your forever21 dress! I love that store, such a great choice. For the hair flower go on Etsy.com, I always wear flower headbands and get them there, they rock, I'll do a search for you and see what I find...

Your etsy store should def be called Once Upon a Bride, it's too perfect! I better be your first customer!

Ok and now on to the 37 day thing... AHHHHHHHH I am SOOOOOOOOOOO Happy and excited for you! You are going to make a goregous bride!


PS- Priceline is amazing, I do it when I go visit my brother in NC and get rental cars for like $7 a day and hotels for really short money. It's amazing, and I love the William Shatner commercials, my mom and I always sing along lol, we're nerds:rotfl2:
 
OMG THEY HAVE A UK PRICELINE WEBSITE!!?? Wayne said to tell you thanks, because he's never seen that website before and just got all excited about it! haha
 
Your hair is going to look amazing! I love the half up half down thing and I think that you will look stunning! I'm glad that you got through so much! I feel like I still have a lot to do but I am glad that I got the majority of it done early!

I FREAKIN LOVE PRICELINE! It makes me feel like I am being overcharged for everything else!

BTW Thanks soooooooooo much for your help with the monogram! You have no idea as to how much of a help this is!
 
how does this priceline thing even work? do you get crap rooms? can you put in ANY price to see if they accept it? Like, if i put in £10 for a room, and they accepted it- how can they manage to do this at this price???!!

They have a certain minimum price that they will sell it for. So I don't think they would sell it for £10. I think the way that it works is that if a hotel has too many hotel rooms left by a certain day they would rather fill the rooms at a rate that they are still making money so Priceline would make a deal with them. I could be wrong but I think that is how it works.

Yep they have a priceline UK site and we can use the US one for booking hotels rooms in the states (what i plan on doing)
Nope not crap room, i dont even think the hotel know you used priceline to book, theres another website like it called hotwire too.
Check out a website called betterbidding.com there loads of info on there about it and you can even figure out what hotel you could end up with by looking at the amenities it has :)
 
Oooh Jenny,

I love the hairstyle with the braids and then big flower - very pretty!!!

The first one is gorgeous too though! Thats how I'm hoping to have my hair. :)
 
So missy apart from you doing all your (brilliant and boootiful) DIY stuff, is everything else you have to do / book / plan ... i dunno.. one of those lists (that im trying to come up with now!?) with everything for the wedding.. from the ceremony bits to the food at the reception, transport, photography,music..... ect...

i thought one of these lists were easy to come up with, but i didnt realise how many things are added onto it that i have to arrange or make sure its arranged and im freaking already!?? I bet you have one of these lists, you have been very organised with everything so far! hehe

I dont mean to stress you more haha im just wondering (and i could steal your list and use it for my check list too so i dont leave anything out! hehe)

Hows Vinny lately.. is he any better, i forgot to ask, im sorry! How is he feeling at the moment with the 37 days to go!? I bet he cant wait to see you walking down the aisle, man, his jaw will fall to the floor when he sees you, i bet he is really excited! I bet he is so proud of you and everything you have made for the wedding, if he isnt, i am!! :thumbsup2
