Aw: very thoughtful wedding present...

brivb10

So I have a very close friend from pgh that is not in the wedding party and we had a huge fight about that fact about 6 months ago.  We've since gotten over that, and she has become an integral part of the wedding planning and is doing my makeup day of.  This weekend she helped me bead 500 branches for the wedding centerpieces  (8 hours over 2 d days) and also surprised us with a wonderful gift.  Toasting flutes!  I had mentioned only one time thatI I really wanted these, but thought they were too expensive.  She had been in close communication with Mom and FI to make sure no one else had gotten them for me.  It just keeps making me go aw.... when I see them, so I decided to aw her out as being an awesome friend!

Those are gorgeous! I think I have seen them before- are they swarovski? How thoughtful of her. I'm glad you got over the wedding party issue and are still friends- definitely not worth losing a friend over.

They're from Things Remembered....and b/t all of us knut friends, I wish I had selected her to be a BM.  I thought my college roommate would be a better choice...but eh.

What a wonderful friend.  Very thoughtful and I'm so glad that you two are still able to have a great relationship despite the fight.

They are really pretty!  I'm glad you both have gotten over her not being in the wedding.  It sounds like she is a great friend.

that is really sweet. Those cost a pretty penny too- especially with all that engraving on it.  Very good friend.

Aw, that is very sweet and thoughtful!  I'm glad she isn't holding a grudge about not being included in the wedding party, too.

Those are really nice, how thoughtful of your friend. I have to ask though, Taylor Swift lyrics? Really? Unless it has special meaning, that would bother me. (Could just be me though, so don't take it personally if you like it).

brivb10

Yeah I'm not sure why she picked those lyrics, it's not our wedding song. ?

KRMac

Wow, that is random.  I assumed it was your wedding song or held a meeting for you and your FI.  Ha.

brivb10

Nope. our wedding song is Amazed by Lone Star. No meaning at all. We have seen Taylor in concert and she's great, but it wasn' t like this friend went with us. lol.

KimWard

This is off-topic, but Amazed is our song as well! I'm assuming by wedding song, you mean it's your first dance song? Just wanted to say how much I love that song, and how awesome it was to dance to it at our wedding!

brivb10

Yes first dance song! I just love that song!!!

Just wanted to add that I love Amazed too. We didn't use it as our wedding song because it was my MOHs wedding song, but luckily we were able to dance to it alone as the last song of the evening. Its such a beautiful song.

Those are gorgeous flutes!!!  And how awesome that you have this fantastic memory connected to them now.
