Photographer question - Michael Flores

JenniferB27 — Wed, 31 Mar 2010 12:14:18 +0000

Hi ladies~

Has anyone used Michael Flores for their photographer? Just wondering because we are thinking of booking him for our engagement photos (and hopefully wedding photos, too). Any advice/reviews would be appreciated! =)

Thanks!

song choice!

SRivera09 — Wed, 31 Mar 2010 17:29:43 +0000

So I'm picking out the songs I want my harpist to play at the ceremony. And she has a song from New Moon!! Squeal!!! I'm thinking about using it when I walk down the isle. Do you think it would sound right?

Usually I'm a more traditional kinda girl, but c'mon, it's from New Moon! LOL

Scroll down past both pics, it's titled movie themes.

brit21489 — Mon, 29 Mar 2010 21:39:35 +0000

So... I have an interview for that community assistant job I posted about around a month ago. The interview is on Friday and I don't know when I will find out if I got the job or not, but I will let you know if I do!

Any advice or final words. lol. I get a chance to ask questions so I need to think them up too, but I know one or two so far.

I saw your tweet on overheard wedding twitter! I don't always look at the pix on owt, but I was like, oh I wanna see the embossed invitations! Then I looked at the twitter name and knew it could only be you! The invitations look great, btw.

FS: Grooms Survival Kit

eviegrl42 — Wed, 31 Mar 2010 21:53:41 +0000

Hey girls :) So I'm trying to get rid of some of the stuff at my house and found the groom's survival kit my MIL got my DH. It hasn't been used and has all the stuff in it. Let me know if you're interested. Here is a link with a picture and the things included in it:

I like/love this board because...

cjbwifey2010 — Tue, 30 Mar 2010 15:14:01 +0000

Figured i'd ask everyone what they enjoyed about the CFL board...

I love the fact that i can talk wedding stuff on a daily basis without getting weird looks, i love the fact that everyone is so helpful and willing to provide info, coupons, vendors, etc...

Those are just a few...what's yours?

NWR: selling a bunch of clothes! =)

stardust21587 — Wed, 31 Mar 2010 21:00:31 +0000

If anyone is interested, I'm selling a bunch of clothes on Craigslist to clear out all of the stuff I never wear or that doesn't fit me any more! A lot of it is brand new or has only been worn once. The sizes are kind of small...juniors sizes mostly. 3's in pants and small-med in tops and dresses. A lot of it is stuff from Charlotte Russe since I used to work there. Shoes are size 7.5 to 8.5 and some never worn. Let me know if you're interested in any of it before I donate it all to Goodwill!! =)

Hopefully these links work...

Is there a CFL Bio?

Mrs.Jason.9.15.07 — Tue, 30 Mar 2010 13:24:35 +0000

Hi! I am a nestie who usually posts on the WCF Nest but I was hoping you girls could help me!

My brother is planning on getting married in Orlando and I was wondering if anyone has created a CFL Wedding Bio? I would like to help him and his girlfriend find great local vendors.

Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!

length of reception

aondera — Sun, 28 Mar 2010 20:25:14 +0000

hey gals!

Quick question.

How long is your reception?

We have ours for four, but I am worried that the extra hour to make it five would make a lot of difference. So, I need some opinions and thoughts.

Thanks!

License Question

2010Bride2B — Tue, 30 Mar 2010 00:43:48 +0000

Im getting married on the 16th. My fiance and I have been busy BUT we will go this Friday to get our license. We didnt do the course so we have to wait the three days. My question is do we get our license that day? Does it come in the mail when the three days are up? Or do we get the license and it says when the date its official and we can use it? Kinda confused by it. We live in Brevard so i did some basic parts on the kiosk online to make it go quicker when we have to go to the office. I hope everyone gets what im talking about! Am I cutting it close? HELP!!

SRivera09 — Wed, 31 Mar 2010 17:55:41 +0000

Hey, I just saw your post about the marriage lisence. It's good Friday, they're closed!! Not sure what county you are in, but I'm in Osceola and I called and they are closed :( I was gonna go this Friday too. Double check with your local courthouse though.

So FI just called and said he booked a hotel downtown for after the reception and he found an escalade to transfer us from the reception to the hotel for only $45! Its from town car service of orlando. I am so excited!!!!

Probably more information you need to know.... (longish)

thedrval — Mon, 29 Mar 2010 01:50:14 +0000

Maybe this isn't the best place to share this information but I feel the closest to this board so I am going to post it here : )

We are getting married on the 22nd of May! Everything is coming up super fast, so it seems and I am getting pretty stressed. First some background info.

My parents are divorced and remarried. I love my parents and step parents very much and think of them as if they were my real parents. Recently my stepmoms father past away (whom I liked very much) and left money to my stepmom. She decided to use some of the money to pretty much foot the entire bill for the wedding. It is really sweet and generous! In no way to I want this to come across like I don't like her or appreciate what she is doing for us. But when it came to picking the cater she had lots of input (normally wouldn't mind). So I came up with a list of three that I thought would be the best fit for the wedding and their contact information and gave her this list. She went ahead and scheduled a tasting for her and my dad to go to. When they called me to tell me about it, they didn't even ask if I would be able to make it. I am currently going to UF and had exams so I couldn't go to my own tasting!!! Their reasoning was that it would be more important to go on a date that my dad could go then me! Ugh so that was stresser number one... but it happend awhile ago so I am kind of over it now...

Second really big stresser (at least for me it was): The addresses on the invitations. About a week ago I finially finished printing, glueing, putting ribbon on, and stuffing the invitations. Then I went to the post office to make sure the font I used on the RSVP envelopes was readable they told me that it wasn't... after I already did all of them. So I went to the store, got labels, printed them, and put them on the envelopes and restuffed all of the invites... Then I get a call from my stepmom. She tells me that I have to redo all of her and my dads side of the guest list because she doesn't feel that the invites were worded properly... Thats about 40 invites! I also had two exams, a presentation, a quiz, and a paper that had to be started in that same week. I also have to get up to go to physical training with the Marine Corps (trying to become an officer) at 0430 every other morning. Needless to say, having to buy and redo 40 invitations was not working well with my schedule and I was extrememly stressed out! (she realized how stressed I was and was nice enough to do them for me, thank God!) I think worked on the invitations for an entire weekend and everyday something went terribly wrong and I cried because I was getting so frustrated.

(now to the point of the post) I think I stressed myself out so much with school, working out, and the wedding planning that I caused myself to be "late" by ten days! My FI goes to school in Virginia plus we are both waiting till the wedding night for both of our "first time". I think I am about to start soon because of all the cramping going on. Has anyone else had this problem? I know high amounts of stress can cause your period to be abnormal...

Chair help!

mlharbis — Wed, 17 Mar 2010 21:27:18 +0000

When I booked the Farmers' Market I was told they were getting new neutral colored banquet chairs so I was excited that I didnt need to rent chairs or covers. I went by the office today to see about the status of the new chairs to find out they got crossed out of the budget! What chairs are inexpensive and would look nice in the farmers market?
Thanks!!!

Megs30 — Tue, 30 Mar 2010 15:57:52 +0000

It is my birthday today! I took the day off work and have been hanging out at home relaxing. So far it has been a great day

Hope everyone else is having a great Tuesday!

Aw: Checks!

frozenxthoughts — Tue, 30 Mar 2010 02:18:08 +0000

I went shopping with my girls on Sunday and they all found a dress they liked! I let the girls pick their own style dress as long as it was tea-length and navy blue.

They picked the dresses below and will pair them with silver shoes of their choice. It looks awesome.

Also, finished designing my wedding map for the invites (click the pictures to make them bigger!). The best part: it was free but it took me a long time to get the margins exactly right for printing

AW: DIY Centerpiece...check it out! PIP

tickledpinkrain — Tue, 30 Mar 2010 01:28:47 +0000

Hey Girls, I know it's been a few days! Never a dull moment around here! Still job searching, but FI is recovering from surgery well! I've been trying to catch up on posts!!!

Anywho...since I have so much time in between job searches, I decided to focus on some DIY wedding stuff to de-stress!!! I've been trying to figure out my centerpieces from day one. I had an idea, but need to cut costs badly...I originally wanted to do a tall cylinder vase with red roses and several small glass votives covered in a black/silver vellum to cover up the LED tealights I have to use since our venue doesn't allow burning candles. Well...instead of buying glass votives I'll probably never use again, I decided to try and come up with an alternative...out of paper!!! I'm so excited. Below are what I came up with...just some plain white cardstock, wrapped in silver and black ribbon. The tealights fit perfectly inside (discretely), and give off just the right ambience. Excuse my poor photography skills, but I hope you get the jist! Oh, and the roses will be wrapped in a pretty black ribbon. This is just the rough draft. Finishing touches will be applied later. What do you think???

SRivera09 — Tue, 30 Mar 2010 15:20:31 +0000

does anyone know about either of these limo companys? At west wing I get a 20% discount for being a fl hosp employee. But I don't want to go with them just for that reason. any feedback is helpful!!

AW: It just got real!

Photography question for the married ladies

ginam98 — Sat, 27 Mar 2010 21:17:18 +0000

Hi all,

I haven't posted here in a while... I guess once the wedding was over I didn't want to even think about weddings anymore lol!

My question is: How long did it take for you to get your CDs/Albums from your photographer? Our wedding was on January 15th and we haven't gotten the final product yet. Am I being to anxious or should I start annoying my photographer on a daily basis? ;)

Ceremony and Reception Location

[Deleted User] — Mon, 29 Mar 2010 19:36:04 +0000

I want to have an outside wedding but does anyone know of any places in Florida that I can have an outside ceremony then have the guests go in for the cocktail hour and back outside for the reception? The only place I have found so far is Casa Feliz.
