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.

Ok- I think I am better today! I am not going to think about wedding stuff today. Just get ready for my B'day weekend!!

I don't know how much I'll be on this weekend so Celia - have a great birthday and a beautiful year!

What are your weekend plans?

Thank you Gina!

Gina, how are you doing with your numbers, do you have a lot of people to still call? I'm looking at your no response 113.

Re: Official 30+ Brides (previously 40+ thread)

We are exactly where we knew we'd be. Our numbers are very mislead. My family is spread out all over the world (Phillipines, Australia, New Zealand, Spain, South Africa, Brazil, Mexico and then the boring places like California, Florida, etc.).

I knew most of my out of the country relatives wouldn't be able to make it, but I still needed to invite them. For a while there we were certain that everyone was going to say yes - but we're perfect. We have a 150 min and FH and I planned all along for around 160 so we're very happy because when you add the 2 of us to the count, we're at 161!

Re: Official 30+ Brides (previously 40+ thread)

That's good because I didn't add me, FH or our brothers and sisters to the numbers just in case I had cancellations and be on mark. Does that make sense?

Hey - has anyone heard from Jen (MrsBlueRibbon)? I was wondering how she's doing - I haven't seen her post in a while.

I got an FM from Jen about facebook the other day but that is the last I heard from her.

Hi Ladies, I'm here.
I haven't been on in a bit and I feel strange posting since I'm not a bride anymore.

Celia: I sent you a message on FB.

Gina: I sent you a looong FM, but after I hid send, it logged me out, so I'm not sure if it went through or not!

I thank you ladies for thinking about me, it's been really rough.

Good Luck next week Gina! Your day is so close, I can't wait to see pics!

Jen

Re: Official 30+ Brides (previously 40+ thread)

Okay, I will go by my short self and see if I like trying on dresses. Then the ones I like I will post the pictures of the dresses. I am still thinking of having it made.

On a side note, one of the ladies from my job parents are from India and she going there for a month. I was think of giving her money to buy fabric for my second dress. I was thinking white with gold? Do any of you think that a great idea or should I change the fabric color?

Hey Renay,

I think the white w/gold sounds lovely for a 2nd dress if the dress is done right - you should go for it!

Thanks that would help a lot. My sister and girlfriend had vote no on it. If you can ask her it will help in what I am thinking.
