Amanda & Eric 03/03/10- WP/WHP/Sago Cay Centerpiece Ideas!

Lol you kinda freaked me out...Df would have fainted if I told him the minimum was $15,000!!! I think that is for Fri/Sat! And you are right about getting to keep my bouquet...but you made me think of something else.

My mom has this wonderful little leaded glass box that her dried bouquet sits in. I have always wanted one...but if I do silk then I can't.:sad1:

Yeah I am not to good with the minimums especially since I went above and beyond much to the dismay of my husband. :rotfl::rotfl: but hey we had the money for it and we decided if we are going to do it, lets do it all the way. :rotfl: I love the feathers for the dress. Its a very classic look. :goodvibes
 
Hi Mandy!!

I just caught up on all the fun details from the weekend!! I absolutly love the second dress on you! Stop it witht he 15lbs...you look perfect, and I agree with Sam...MUCH better than that model :goodvibes. I really love the idea of the feather and bird cage! You're going to look so unique and beautiful!
 
So my mom and I decided to spend the afternoon together and go shopping. We started at JoAnn fabrics and amazingly came up with my bridal bouquet and my MoH bouquet (I think!!)

Then we decided to stop in David's Bridal just to look...well before I knew it we were picking out gowns to try on!! I never would have thought they had an open appointment on a Sunday afternoon in April.

I didn't like most of what I tried on...too heavy or poufy, just too much. I was suprised since I would have thought I liked that kind. I tried on a beautiful new gown they got in with a pickup skirt, but I hated it!

Here is my 2nd favorite...I can't find a pic on their website...also this is from my camera phone. I had a bra on with boning under it, so it looks a little funny.

Then came this gown...OMG my jaw just dropped. It was amazing. I don't need a bra since it has one built in and it just fit me amazingly! I want to drop about 15 lbs but I still liked the way it fit. I would have NEVER tried this on because I hated how it looked on the model, but I am so glad I did. I also tried it with this awesome feather clip for my hair and was just in love!!

I obviously have more shopping to do but I think we need to rethink our colors. I am not thrilled with the idea of yellow if my dress is ivory. I still like the green and pink but am not sure.

Oh other big news, we decided on Randy Chapman for our photography. I am going to put down the deposit tomorrow:cool1:

That second dress is beautiful. It fits your body perfectly already...imagine how fantastic it will look once it is fitted. I love the feather hair piece too. Very classic.

Lol I am very aware of the minimums...df already has trouble grasping the $12,000 minimum!!

:thumbsup2I LOVE that feather hair piece!!

You'll have to see the whole thing together!!

Aww thank you!! I really love that dress...I am going to have a hard time looking for something else!

Aww thank you!! I really love that dress...I am going to have a hard time looking for something else!

I definitely want to see the whole thing together!!!!! :cool1: Although, you definitely need to try other things on because you never know if there is another dress that is even better! Where is that hairpiece from? It is so pretty:lovestruc
 
So I shouldn't tell you that our $1500 vow renewal cost over $5200?

Dresses, floral, wedding party gifts, photography, shoes, jewerly spa services...I am making myself woozy so I won't go on
 
Thats great that Randy was able to do your wedding. How many hours did you get him for? I think Disney's photograpy rule kind of sucks. :headache:
 
Mandy not matter what you wear you will be beatiful!:bride: I am just so happy for you both!:hug:

Thanks Fancy Pants!!!

The hair comb is from David's too! I was suprised because I would NEVER have thought to go there!!

Disney's photography rule does suck. We are getting Randy for 7 hours; split up before and after, not sure on times yet. I am super excited that we will have him even if it's not for the ceremony.


:lmao: It all adds up so fast!!!! :upsidedow
Oh I can only imagine!:scared1:
 
I'm a little late on this, but the comb is beautiful also! Sometimes simple combs or headbands looks much better than wearing a veil.
 
Not sure...my mom just asked me if I wanted to wait a while or make an appointment somewhere else.

This is the comb I want to wear with it!

Oh wow that will look amazing all together, and I saw you mentioned a birdcage veil. All 3 together would make you totally look like a 40's starlet! Great look!

Disney's Photo rule is so horrible, I literally just made it in (by like 4 days) to Atlantic Dance Hall with an outside photographer. Although I had a great experience with DPS when we did our E-Pics. Dean was our photographer and he does weddings as well and we absolutly loved him:goodvibes. I have also head good things about Ty, Amy and Regina from DPS as well:goodvibes
 
:lmao: It all adds up so fast!!!! :upsidedow

It does!!

I saved for 17 months to pay for it!! But it was all paid for and I didn't have to worry!:cool1:

The hair comb is from David's too! I was suprised because I would NEVER have thought to go there!!

My veil and comb came from Micheal's! I just took a tulle veil and attached it to the comb. Cost me $25 or $30 for both. Is that hairpiece ivory or can you get it in ivory? I think the a birdcage would go really well with the "old hollywood" style of the dress. Carrie also got something called a "fascinator" that is very close to that
 
Amanda, you look stunning in that second dress! The first one look great on you too!
Also, congrats on deciding on Randy. He will do a wonderful job. I've seen so many great things from him around here!:thumbsup2
 
Wow I am surprised that that is from David's. I think my bad experience just makes me count it out all together. That just makes it that much easier for me to see it all together! We definitely need to go do that:banana:

I know...she sent us to look at tiaras...which I had no interest in, and I found it!!

WE JUST BOOKED RANDY!!!
 
wait till you get all the paperwork in the mail! That is fun too!

I don't know if WDW brides get a packet, but we got luggage tags that said "DFTW"
