Oh GG, you reminded me! <br /> <br />For my Bombonieres, My sis has offered to cross stich something, as my mom did bookmarks for her, but since my mom doesn't want to have anything to do with my wedding, my sis will be all alone doing these, so I've offered to help, and do something smaller. SO I want to do Fridge Magnets, with something pretty on them.........everyone has a fridge! <br /> <br />As for center pieces......everyone tell me your honest opinion......I want to go and buy those *floating flower* bowls from Walmart the clear ones, and fill them with water, and since my main color will be deep red, I want to order in deep red colored Bata's (Chineese Fighting Fish) and have one in each bowl, with plastic gold confetti sprinkled in and around the bowl......oh...just thought of this...maybe I'll have gold sparkles around the rim of the bowl.....that's be cool...if I can't find the confetti (I've hear it's hard to find) <br /> <br />And as I said before I'd post a pic of the dress I like, so here's the link to it! <br /><a href="http://www.maggiesottero.com/catalog/window.php?156" target="_blank">Click here for Dress</a> <br />Now I haven't decided on this for sure, it's just somehitng that I like, but I want something with straps, and I would want the beads in WHITE......not a fan of the blue, and I'd like something with more of a train. Feedback welcome <br /> <br />Ok.....enough wedding posting for me! Just wait Lix, you won't be able to stop once you start!

Thanks again. <img border="0" src="smileys/smiley9.gif" border="0"> <br /> <br />GG! <img border="0" src="smileys/smiley1.gif" border="0"> You have alot thought out too! And the funny part guys is that I was the last one engaged and will likely tie the knot before the two of you. LOL Acutally, I'm jealous of your dates, September or October would be so ideal but since we have so much family far away, I want to increase my chances of them coming by doing it in the summer. I'm hoping August, just cause July is pretty 'mainstream'. <br /> <br /><img border="0" src="smileys/smiley9.gif" border="0"> Are bonbonieres the little gifts you give at weddings? That's what I get from your posts but what are 'favors' then? Is it the same thing? Oh my! <img border="0" src="smileys/smiley24.gif" border="0"> LOL <br /> <br />I love the idea of the clay pot with the seeds and the message. That is just so sweet! <br /> <br />Rickie! Really like that idea of a centerpiece. I say go for it, it will look very original! (But maybe give the fish to kids after so they don't die. <img border="0" src="smileys/smiley2.gif" border="0"> LOL I LOVE your colors, it will be beautiful, deep red and gold is so elegant! And your dinner reception place soudns gorgeous too! <br /> <br />Oh, and thanks for the sites, will be checking them out! Only thing is I couldn't get that link to open to see the dress!!! I wanna see! <img border="0" src="smileys/smiley5.gif" border="0"> I went on their site though and every time I click on a dress, it does the same things (just showes up in codes). <br /> <br />Ok, another questions from the clueless bride-to-be: are you supposed to pay for your bridesmaids dresses as well as flower girl and ring bearer. I mean it makes sense, cause it would be kind of lousy if they had to pay but man, it would be expensive. In that case, can you just rent stuff for everyone? I'm so clueless. <img border="0" src="smileys/smiley5.gif" border="0"> <br /> <br />How many guests do you have GG? <br /> <br />I want my flowers to be wild flowers of some sort, since I am getting married in a barn. I read an idea that I really like, is to hide 2 long stem roses in your bouquet. On the way up the aisle, you stop and present one to your Mom and then proceed to get married, etc. At the end, when you are walking back down the aisle, you stop at your new mother-in-law and present her with the second rose as she is now 'family'. I thought it was sweet. That and instead of having seperate candles to light during the ceremony, use only one with 3 wicks. That way the 3 families are 'united' (parents of bride, parents of groom and bride and groom). <br /> <br />I want alot of the guest to do something so they all feel special. Maybe we'll just have alot of ushers. LOL. <br /> <br />How many bridesmaids will you have? I think I will have 1 maid of honor and 2 bridesmaids. (2 bridesmaids don't know yet, LOL) <br /> <br />We are going to visit the reception place we have in mind soon. People sound nice and it's on a big farm (with 75 B&B rooms!) so what more could I ask. I hope it does work out at this place cause I wouldn't know where else to look. I live in the middle of nowhere.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <br /> <br />And you guys thought <em>you</em> talked alot. <img border="0" src="smileys/smiley5.gif" border="0">LOL <br /> <br />
