Thread views: 60,127

I figured we could start an official august thread and see what are we up to. I also want to know if I have a date twin.
me, nothing yet because I don't have money yet but most likely will start booking stuff hopefully at the end of this year, that's is if I find a job before then.

So post away.

I'm tania and my husband is Will. we are renewing our vows and having the wedding we never had since we got married on city hall and had no money then. I guess things never change.

Hi!!

I bought my headpiece...I am a little upset with myself since it was much more than I wanted to spend, but I got caught up in the moment and it is GORGEOUS!!

My BM got fitted for their gowns. I had a slight color crisis, but now I am set on charcoal :)

My mom bought me the Lenox Jubilee flutes, but I can not open them up until the holidays :)

Next:

Shoes!

BTW- when do we order invitations?

Re: Official August 2006 Thread. Come on in.

I am rather new to this whole chat thing but this website seems pretty interesting to participate in. I have the same wedding date as you and I am not even close to having stuff done.

I got engaged mid October and was able to book a catering hall and church. The rest I will start doing after our parents meet next Saturday for the first time. Of course, that does not mean I am not researching for ideas and figuring out what details my fiance and I would want on our wedding day. Also, we plan on doing our honeymoon in Europe somewhere.

Ladies you seem like you got things under control and you have definitely inspired me to get moving. Two thumbs up!

Hey date twin!!! Welcome to the 06 boards! Any ideas on where you would like to have your reception?

Re: Official August 2006 Thread. Come on in.

We are actually going to be having our reception at the Woodbury Country Club. It was most accomodating to what we needed. It was one of the first ones we saw and 7 places later, we went back to that one.

Hi ladies-
My name is Ally and I have done very little
I have a location and a dress. I've met with a caterer and florist, but have not yet cemented anything. And, I'm freaking out because I decided to set aside the hotel block today and discovered that all the large hotels on the North Fork are booked. ARGH!
Well, nice to meet you all anyway!

Quick Question... I plan on sending some save the dates (printed by me) with my Christmas cards this year. Does anybody have any good ideas on how to word them or where I can find wordings?

Thanks!
