Michelle,

Those pictures came out great!! How did you get the balloons for the pictures?? I can't wait to see your MK shoot pics

Well I've finally started my PJ! Not too much on there right now.

Question, did you have a hard time finding your wedding dress? Did you get "the one" feeling?

Thanks for your help,
Jodi

Thank you so much! We actually order the balloons in red through Disney Floral. They delivered them to our room with my bouquet and then after the reception we went to get them to use in pics. I know I have been checking my email like 30 times a day till we get the link for our MK pics! Monday was 3 weeks, but they say up to 4 weeks... any time now...

Yay with your PJ!!! I'll have to keep up with it.

Well with the dress I had showed Jeff pictures of ones I wanted to try on, and when he saw the pic of my actual dress he said thats the one! I knew he was coming with me to try on dresses cause I didnt want it to be a surprise, I wanted him to love my dress just as much as me. Well, I tried the Alfred Angelo version of my dress on at the first place we went and got tears, but then went to like 5 more places just to be sure and I wanted to try the Maggie Sottero version of my dress... well when I tried the Maggie version on... I started crying, but it really wasnt till the wedding day with hair and make up all done that I knew my dress was the one Are you having trouble finding yours?

Yes I am having a lot of trouble finding my dress! So Raphael and I moved from Florida to Seattle 3 years ago! All of my family and friends are there, I've been bringing a coworker with me but its not helping! Raphael and I have decided that he's not to see me in the dress or the dress till our wedding day! But like you did, I've been showing him pictures of dresses to see what he will like, because of course I want him to like it too! I haven't tried on a Maggie Sottero dress yet! I've been to Alfred Angelo twice and Thursday I'm going back to David's Bridal for the second time!

Thanks for the info about the balloons! We may do an engagement shoot at WDW before our wedding cruise with our photographer and I think those will be a nice touch! Do you remember the cost?

Thanks again

I will check in our last BEO tomorrow and let you know what the cost was. I believe $10-$12 each but ill double check for you.

Well try to find a dress shop that carries Maggie Sottero in your area. They fit amazing!!! They give such good shape. And best of all they are good price wise too... my dress was about $1200.

What style of dress are you thinking? You can always email me a pic of the dresses you have tried on and ill give you my opinion

AAAAHHHHH!!!! So pretty!!!

I love the Cinderella style ones in front of the castle. You also got some fantastic shots in Be Our Guests.

Which country has that adorable little cottage? I don't think I've ever seen it before.

The cottage is in Canada by Le Cellier

Thank you! As much time as I've spent in Canada, I can't believe I've never seen it before. I have to go find it on our trip.

Since Im on a roll with the posts... I thought I would also post our dessert party pics. We were in Morocco and the view was great in my opinion. If we had to do it over, I would do it again in Morocco. They changed the rules and wont let you have tables and chairs anymore in Morocco, but we talked them into letting us have 2 tables with 5 charis each and then highchairs for the infants and the rest were tall boy tables. We did the ice cream buffet and added brownies, cheese cakes, and the peanutbutter marshmallow chocolate squares. We did not offer alcohol at the dessert party and no one seemed to miss it. We had water, coffee, tea, and fruit punch (which was soooo yummmmmm). And I guess someone could have asked for a cup of coke or rootbeer because we had that for the ice cream. We had Disney do the centerpieces, but we brought the glow necklaces ourselves. We were able to take the stars from the centerpiees, and the glow cubes that were set up on the diesert buffet (the server actually went and found extra of the glow cubes so that I could have a whole package of them). We did not hire a photographer because Jeff's brother has a really nice camera and likes taking pictures. Also... they let us bring the leftovers to go. I know a lot of girls ask about that... bring a few glad containers with you in case, not baggies - too messy. We also let people wear what they wanted to.

Then: Back on for my trip report

I've been such a horrible follower, I've almost completely missed your TR (or at least missed following it along as you update). Anyway, I am totally caught up now, and I have to say your wedding looked so beautiful! Everything looked so perfect. You looked so gorgeous. The cake stand was stunning, your decor is so pretty and romantic -- oh I love it all! I adore how your husband brought out the glass slipper to you during the reception, that is such a special moment (and so fun!). And the Mickey Hands at your ceremony too! That's so cool.

I love all your wedding photos and portraits! And your Disney portraits are so gorgeous! Your reception food looked delicious and your dessert party food too! And I feel like I'm forgetting a bunch of things I wanted to say, so in conclusion, everything looked so beautiful and you must be so happy! Congratulations again!

Awww yay! Thank you!!! Well I am just paying it back. When I was starting to get ideas for our Disney wedding, so many girls on here helped and it really helped me to have the wedding we dreamed of, so I want to make sure to help others planning their dream weddings. Thank you so much and thanks for reading my planning journal/trip report.
