Official 30+ Brides (previously 40+ thread)

This thread was orignally started for the 40+ Brides but would love to invite all 30+ brides to join.

I love talking to all the brides out there but I would like to hear what us 'Older Brides' are doing to plan their wedding. I am finding that I am doing things a little different and would like to see what others are doing.

My name is Celia and 46 y/o bride.

I've got to dig through my mom's attic for my '80's pictures! There were so many great looks, the Pat Benatar, the Joan Jett, the Sheena Easton, then of course, who can forget Capezios with the cavaricci's!

Re: Official 40+ Brides

Ok I got my pics done. They took about 6. The photographer was great and I really liked him. But he did show us the last pic that was taken, and I lookd horrible, had a real stupid smile on my face. FH looked great though. I hope the rest were better. We are going to have a 2nd sitting with another photographer that does a different style of pics so we can choose. So at least if these dont come out good we will have another sitting

Re: Official 40+ Brides

Are you ladies making anything for your wedding?

I made my unity candle/tapers, guest book, table numbers, donation scrolls (we gave a donation in lieu of a favor to honor our dads!), cake topper and a few other things.

Re: Official 40+ Brides

I might do table numbers and donation scrolls. I'm just not a DIY lady. Do you think it's neccessary. Both of our familes wouldn't care at the wedding. That's just how they are.

Re: Official 40+ Brides

Maybe I can try table numbers. FH and I are in love with bears (our cake top will be bears) maybe I can do something with that.
hmmmmmm let me think about that

Not yet. We both have two charity that are close to our hearts. Then we were if we divide up the tables we can do all four, but how knows.

Definitely not- it's totally up to you It's easy to do though. Just type in the wording on Word (two on one regular sized piece of paper) and print and you're done. Table numbers my DH did lol...but it didn't look hard to do. I bought the frames at the dollar store. :)
Anyone need any help, please let me know
I'd be happy to help you!!!!!!!!!
