Re: A thread just for PlusSize Brides

Yes but I don't have them on this computer yet.........some I don't think LIWeddings will allow and others well are somewhat incriminating...lol.

Kara -- I can't believe you are at 10 days. How's the stress level? You've done this before, so I'm sure you are super organized. I can't wait to see pictures!

Re: A thread just for PlusSize Brides

Finally went dress shopping! Mostly I tried on Plus Sizes (where do they have a lot of selection??) but I am so picky with the sleeves and everything that I only tried on about 7... I like 1... possibly 2. :) The girl said its a good thing we started looking early since I am so picky!!!

I found a large selection at:

Beautiful Bride in Lynrbook (where I got my dress)
Commack Wedding Center
Bridal Suite of Bayshore
Helen's Bridal in Commack

Thanks. I looked at the Wedding Center when I was picking up a bridesmaid dress a few months ago... didn't see anything with sleeves. Where is the Bridal Suite of Bayshore? (obviously, in Bayshore)

I wanted sleeves and I went to Paradise Bridal in Patchogue, they have a lot to try on and they have plus sizes.

It is my teeth!!!!

HAHA! A few girls who were getting the whitening wanted to see how mine came out. I had my teeth whitened in 2001. I don't drink coffee regularly or smoke so they are still nice and white. The flash made them look super white. I thought it was a funny avatar pic...haha. I like to change mine all the time.

It's right on Main Street (aka Montauk Highway) in Bayshore.

I went to Paradise Bridal in Patchogue because I had heard they had a good selection of plus size samples, and I found their selection sparse in comparison to the other places. But I didn't want long sleeves, so that cut out a big portion I guess.

Ahhh! It looks so wierd! But that's cool that your teeth have stayed so white.

Where is Paradise Bridal? There is a shop somewhere in Patchogue that carries the brand of bridesmaid dresses I like... and I want to go to Fantasyland so maybe one day I will take a ride there.

Kara -- Sunday is almost here! How are you doing? You must be so excited!

Re: A thread just for PlusSize Brides

AMy I am good!! Spent yesterday at the beach relaxing. I have all the checks written out and in envelopes (just have to sign and put in the amounts), ready to get cash for tips...and ordered saturday night's dinner so I would say I am all set. I even bought some flip-flops today to put in ladies room in case anyone has sore feet. DJ called today to finalize, which is good.
I can't wait...... and I called FI 'Almost hubby' last night and he thinks I am nutso...!!
How are things going for you?

Ha I told my sister about the deodorant tip and she too is grateful! It worked like a charm in Vegas....

Re: A thread just for PlusSize Brides

Things are good. We're meeting with a wedding coordinator tomorrow night. Our invites are almost done and are getting mailed out September 1st. I've started designing our program and am ordering the rehearsal dinner invites. My first fitting is September 7th -- day after labor day.

Kara, are you all packed for the honeymoon?Buy any last minute new stuff for the trip?

Karacg Posted: Aug 23, 2004 03:21 PM

Re: A thread just for PlusSize Brides

Ha, still UNpacking from Vegas!! Then I have to pack just for the weekend on the North Fork. We'll come home MOnday and pack for the honeymoon.
I bought a silk robe at Nordstrom for a steal. Just now ordered a bathingsuit on spiegel.com, as well as a pair of shorts. And got some toiletries at Target at lunchtime today.
I thought about the Extra-Large K-Y, but FI says ...we don't need it!!
I am very very psyched.....don't know what to do with myself from now til SUnday tho. Oh getting my teeth cleaned on Thursday, massage, mani/pedi & waxing on Friday out in Greenport....
