Darn it, the pictures of Skyler got lost. I will upload the ones of him and the ones of my sister later. Sorry folks. At least you got pictures of Erick & I(and they're the best ones of us too). And the first one of just me, I am wearing my Wedding Sun Dress.

If you click the little button that looks like mountains and put the url in, the pictures will show up instead of being links. Like this:

[Skylersmommy5]

Thank you so much Amanda. I was afraid of them coming out too large. I because I can't resize them from my phone. I'll try it again so you don't have to click on the links.

[Skylersmommy5]

I am so sorry for all the links, I am going to edit all the pages with the links for you all. I hope the pictures aren't too big. I'll make sure the link thing never happens again once I get my new computer. I tried Doug it the way you suggested and it won't let me insert it in that way. It won't even let me get the links in the box.

Thank you so much for the compliment Cassie! I need to get new pictures of Skyler taken(those are from last year, but he looks the same but taller). I certainly didn't think anyone wanted to see pictures of him running around in his Pull-Ups.

Oh and I asked Erick about the Lilly Pulitzer blue I love, so hopefully I will get to post more pictures of what our colors are going to be. I also have pictures of dresses for myselbhs I love and a few bridesmaid dresses and some cakes I love too that fit with my theme.

I am so glad that everything is starting to come together!! I would just get a board and start sticking everything that you love to it - so you can glance it all day and be really happy.

Thanks Cassie. I have one ai started on my old computer on Weddingwire. Can't wait for us to get our new laptop so I can start saving eerything again in one place. My phone is kind of doubling as that for me for the moment.

Thanks about my ring btw. I actually googled pink & blue diamond rings yesterday and texted Erick the links(surprisingly some were quite affordable for us). That was Erick's original idea foe my E-ring was pink & blue diamond(and they match the Lilly dresses & polo shirts to a t). He just isn't have the money at the time to buy one, so he lucked out that I had my Zales Account for us to use for our rings at the time. He knows he gets to pick my next ring though(I want him to at least surprise me with that one since he couldn't when he popped the question and I picked out my own ring when we bougt our bands. It's only fair). I even found a matching blue and white diamond channel set band another place which will look nice. It looks just like my band now with alternating blue and white diamonds.

I looked at cakes online for ideas. Sadly I lost a picture on my computer that was a very different Cinderella Cake( it had he clock and the stairs, with Cinderella at the bottom of the steps and a slipper). I don't think Disney does
Pillow Cakes, so I'm going to have to keep looking on that one. I've seen a few on the Cake boards on here that I love but always get an eh, they're alright from Erick. One of them I love our friend from college Gwen had for her
Escape DFTW, so we're still looking what might e different and go with our topper.

Some of our music is picked out. I think we're going to use either Erick's old iPod or one of our iPhones (I lost my iPod, unless I get a new one for us to use that day, but his holds a lot of songs on it). Probably the only songs if my Grandparents are still alive that we'll get complaints about are the Def Leppard, Bon Jovi, and Quiet Riot songs(we're complete '80's Rock Fans).

I'll post our songs in another post though.

pink and blue diamonds sound amazing!!!

My wedding band is all pink diamonds. I spent months searching for them. If thats really what you want I can pm you with some info on a good place to get them.

For our Music:
I'm not sure on the Seating of the few guests yet(since the rest will be in the bridal party(still thinking, possibly Disney songs here).

For Grandparents & Parents(except my mom) which we're having them escort their spouse down the isle(I may be having my sister's hubby Joe-two bro in laws named Joe-seat my mom's mom and the other Elderly ones with walkers)
but they will be entering into the Izzy(Hawaiian version) of Over the Rainbow-What a Wonderful World

Our Bridesmaids & Groomsmen are walking down to Enigma's Return to Innocense(Skyler and my mom will be in this group)

I think I really want Erick & I walking down the isle together instead of having my dad walk me down. And we're walking down to John Stamos with the Beach Boys version of te Beach Boys song Forever.

Our Sand Ceremony will be to Elton John's Circle of Life

and our exit will be to Wynnona Judd's version of Burning Love(from Lilo & Stitch).

For the Reception we are going to have our bridal party announced in I think to either Black Eyed Peas I Got a Feeling or Let's Get it Started

Erick & I will enter to Bon Jovi's Living on a Prayer

Our First Dance is to Bon Jovi's Thank You For Loving Me

My Father/Daughter Dance (dad has no say on the song, because I have the perfect song chosen for him) is going to be to Billy Ray Cyrus Ready, Set, Don't Go

Erick wants his mother/son dance to Guns n Roses Sweet Child of Mine(but that may change).

Skyler & I will have our own Mother/Son Dance probably to Kenny Loggins version of Baby Mine(from Dumbo) if not Bette Middler's version that was in Beaches

I think I want a Mother Daughters dance with my mom & sister to Ain' No Mountain High Enough

Cake Cutting Erick chose Deff Leppard's Pour Some Sugar on Me

and a Last Dance for Erick & I is to Aerosmith's I Don't Want to Miss a Thing(first song we ever slow danced to).

The rest of the music we still hve to figure out, but I refuse to play Barbara Streisand, but it will be something all can enjoy. I just have to keep all my favorite songs off the list, ie Baby Got Back, Da Dip, and any other Booty Dancing Song I love(just so I don't get my Grandparents saying "Turn this awful music off!").

Cassie please do! Thank you.

Erick did have me in shock when he mentioed his pink & blue diamond engagement ring when we got engaged(I knew that would be very well worth the wait, hence why I wasn't upset at all why it too so long for an E-ring from him).

There has been an idea with pink or blue sapphires too, but the pink & blue diamond rings look too pretty!

But I have to say his ideal ring for me and DFTVR very much worth the wait.

[Skylersmommy5]

Cassie, you haven't seen my ever so thick planning binder that Erick saw when I was at my sister's graduation that had all my ideas in it, both Mickey & Minnie theme and Cinderella Theme. He even saw a picture of what I thought was going to be "The Dress". I had second thoughts on it since it didn't look right on without the crinoline skirt(I refuse to wear one of those).

We actually decided on Cinderella since believe it or not Erick's favorite Princess is Cinderella and it is his favorite Disney Princess Movie. He is certainly my Prince Charming(although his nickname from me is Prince Erick). The good news is a lot of the invitations I loved 5 years ago Carlson Craft still makes, but I'll get on invitation ideas closer to when we get our date booked. I know for STD's I am going to DIY type KTTW Room Keys but with Cinderella & Prince Charming on them(I already have the printable ID cards from something else they were going to be used on) as magnets and Boarding Passes too.

[Skylersmommy5]

Here is my reason for wanting a DFTVR.

I don't think my parents would have ever thought I would be quite the Dianey lover. My baby theme was classic Dianey Characters and Dumbo(my mom made both my baby crib sets, she is very crafty and visually artistic as is my sister). Ever since we went for my sister's 4th Birthday(we're 22 months apart) I knew I loved Disney. I was always the one who asked to go back. Wanted a small trip to Disney instead of a Bat Mitzvah Reception, wanted a weekend trip to Disney instead of a Graduation Party for my HS Graduation, but like many other brides on here, I am the true Disney fan in my family. Disney only feels fitting for my love of Disney. I've always wanted to go during the Holidays, just never had the chance yet to go, and now I know Disney decks out he parks for Halloween, just another perfect time to go(especially with it only being days away from my actual Birthday).

My dad and stepmom may enjoy ski trips for their vacations, but theme parks, especially Disney is always my first choice.

We've never been to DLR or on DCL, so I think our belated Honeymoon(well actually Familymoon) may be a Cruise, and hopefully one day to DLR.
