Re: Official August 2006 Thread. Come on in.

Nutella - congrats on the shower!!! i'm going for second fitting this Sat. was hoping to drop a few more pounds but guess that's not going to happen. I'm excited but overwhelmed - work has been SO busy too and i've been too stressed to fully enjoy. i hope to have at least 1 week where all is done and i can breathe a bit. I really need to get my MOH a gift by Sunday - want to get her little diamond earrings to match a circle of life pendant she has - where can i look without breaking the bank? She has alot of jewelry already...

i also need to fill 110 sachet bags for favors, make up trial, rehearsal/family dinner this Sunday. where did you order the future mrs. tee from? that sounds cute.

Re: Official August 2006 Thread. Come on in.

I ordered them from:
CustomGlamGirl.com

I found them to be the most reasonable unless you make them yourself somewhere.

Hi August Ladies,

How are you all doing? The weekend is almost upon us...anyone doing anything good.

I am hoping to get some thank you's written for my bridal shower, and also find some jewerly for my BM's. Does anyone know what is good if the dresses are halter dresses? I wanted to get a necklace but not sure how that would look.

Otherwise, it is a lot of house construction this weekend. What about you ladies?

Does it feel like the days and weekend are always consumed with wedding stuff all the time? Soon it will be our month...

Hope everyone is well.

Congratulations that must be a nice weight off your shoulders.

Do you have anything in mind for your cocktail music? Maybe your DJ has something they can offer or Band whichever you are using.

Re: Official August 2006 Thread. Come on in.

We want live music since for the actual reception we have a dj. The latest idea is the spanish or flamenco guitar.

Alright, so I'm having a freakout...my BM dresses came in all wrong. They won't be in until two weeks before my wedding. Also I am still waiting on 30 or so people to rsvp....its July 14th and the rsvp was July 1! I don't even like most of the ppl who have yet to respond...I feel like saying, you snooze you lose. But that would be too bridezilla-ish, and thats wrong. Right?
GRRRRRRR

Ouch! So sorry you are going through this What happened with the dresses? Were they the wrong style? color?

It seems like everyone is going through the same thing with people rsvp'ing on time. My RSVP date is next week and I dont even want to think about how many I am still missing

Hang in there

Re: Official August 2006 Thread. Come on in.

Yeah, barijay, right color, right size....style all wrong!!!!
This is what I ordered:



This is what I got (but in the same color):



I sooo don't want to call those people that didn't rsvp. FH won't want to either...but of course I can't blame him! This might be a job for my FSIL! Hehe.

So how is everyone else doing? I can't wait to have a drink after I get out of work today...I need one desperately!

Re: Official August 2006 Thread. Come on in.

So sorry about the mix-up!!! Both dresses ae beautiful, but I love the ones you ordered...mine are similar! Hang in there, I am sure everything will work out...there always seems to be one big thing to go wrong right before the wedding!

On the RSVP note...today is my return date, and I am still waiting on a lot of peopel!! Even some of my BMs havent responded! grrrrr

Re: Official August 2006 Thread. Come on in.

Re: Official August 2006 Thread. Come on in.

we got 2 rsvps yesterday and i today..my date was 7-4. uh huh thats right, check the calendar. i'm still waiting on one that my mom has to call.

i'd wait before you start making calls, i mean we were generous with people, giving them the benefit, but it paid off.

Re: Official August 2006 Thread. Come on in.

For all the fellow August 26 brides how are you doing with your RSVP's...for some reason I only have like 50% and July 26 is my response date. What is taking people so long?

Anyways...how are all my August brides doing? I took a well needed day off yesterday so I feel a bit out of the loop. Anyone do any wedding stuff this past weekend?

Hey!!!

Yes, My response date is July 26 as well. I too, am missing like 50%. Thankfully we are getting a steady amount of 'no's coming in, so from the way it looks, I dont think that we will be going over 215 WHICH is exactly what we wanted. Afterall, we invited over 270

This past weekend, i went for my 1st fitting. i dont have any pics because the dress was all pinned up & looked discombobulated . The pics would have done no justice for how ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS it is. I love my dress and wouldn't change it for the world!!!

This weekend I am going for my groomsmen gifts, picking out my readings, going for my 2nd hair trial, and bringing my shoes in to get it dyed to match my dress.
Busy Busy!!! Ahhh We are almost there girls!

Re: Official August 2006 Thread. Come on in.

hi girls! my RSVP date was July 6 and i'm still missing a few. had a rehearsal/family gathering this past Sunday, i took off last Friday to shop for MOH gift, had my 2nd fitting Saturday SO tired

Re: Official August 2006 Thread. Come on in.

Hey girls!!!

I can't believe our time is almost here! TOday is my RSVP date and I cannot even tell you how many people we will have to call, unbelieveable!
This friday I'm going for my 2nd fitting and I can't wait!!! I can't hardly stand it I'm so excited! We finalized everyhting with our rabbi last night and we bought all of our bridal party gifts over the weekend!
Now all I have to do is programs and RD invites and placecards
