Re: Morning

  • I really can't think of a single thing I glued.  There was a lot of tie-dying involved, though.

  • My hot glue gun, my glue dot dispenser and I were best friends with all the DIY stuff.  Stupid favor boxes and bathroom baskets.
  • I used a whole lot of glue dots for our wedding.
  • I'm currently making a Congrats card for my friend's wedding and I glued it off center. I hate it when I do that. 
  • Ok, good, Adamar. Thanks. :)

    Kimandjosh, BF's cat has been waking me up every morning with his conversations with the critters outside the bedroom window. We're in a basement apartment, so chipmunks and the like run right past the window, and it drives the cat crazy. Poor guy. He sounded so pained this morning.

  • The only thing I glued was our wedding invitations (to the cardstock, with a glue stick), and our table numbers to picks so they could go in our centerpieces (with a glue gun).

  • I used so much hot glue.  so. much. hot. glue.

    But no glue dots.

    Mica, you're having quite the week, I hope you and your washing machine get well soon.

    I have a Cinderella party today.  I haven't had done a party in almost a month thanks to the wedding.  I'm kind of not looking forward to it at the moment, but I'm sure once I'm there, it'll be great.
  • I glued a lot.  150 little mini Chinese take out boxes.  My DIY invitations.  Bathroom baskets.  The cardbox.

    Morning, Aleigh! Your sig pic is pretty.

    The only things we're gluing are the stamps and envelopes. I like crafts, but I don't plan to DIY anything for the wedding. I always think I can do something epic, and then it looks like something I made in kindergarten.
  • Morning! I don't plan to glue anything for my wedding. I'm just not a DIY person. At all. I feel like it's almost time to get back into planning my wedding and I can't seem to get excited about it.

  • How far out are you, angel?  You need a ticker!
  • *HUGS* Angel.  :(  Why aren't you excited, if you don't mind me asking?

  • One, Whenever I get my pro-pictures back.  The only candid I have, you can't really see them.

    Two, Yes, for everyone but Belle. I even have different wigs for all of the blonde princesses.
  • Washing machine repair guy here. He doesn't have the right parts. Grr.
  • Now I want to see pictures of MUNI in her princess outfits.
  • I'm still about 7 months out. Its January 11th. I had a ticker, but I took it out when things went downhill with FI. I guess I can't get excited because I still don't know if there should BE a wedding, at least right now. Things are better between us, and he's working on his personal stuff but I feel like I don't know for sure that he'll get it together yet.

  • Mica, that's SO annoying. We didn't have an oven for 2 months because they kept bringing the wrong stuff. Eventually we gave up and bought a new oven.

  • Well, that's a really good reason to not be excited about the wedding, Angel.  You're in the planning lull period anyway- there's not a lot that needs to be done at 7 months. 

    Wrigley, who's your favorite princess?  (...a white one obviously.  I clearly don't do Tiana or Jasmine, etc.)
  • Angel, I must've missed what happened with you and your FI. 
  • Angel -- do you think maybe you should postpone?  I know you'd lose out on money, but if you guys need more time (or you need more time) to figue out if this is what you really want, that's all there is to it.  Somtimes you just need more time.

  • Haha thanks, Eagles.

    I just feel like I should be booking a DJ and a florist pretty soon. The other vendors are booked. Also, we need to set up Pre-Cana and I refuse to be the one to do it. Refuse. It's the one thing I gave him to do, he needs to do it.

    MUNI, how did you get into doing the princess thing?

  • I don't know if we got any pro shots where you'll be able to see my hair well!  I wasn't too interested in bridal portriats.  Our posed pictures are mostly very dramatic Kardashian Family Christmas Card type things...I'll keep an eye out for a good hair pic when the pros FINALLY come in!

    This is the best candid view:
  • Angel, ad on craigslist.  A woman here started this party company.  I have a background in children's theatre and improv, so it's a perfect fit! 
  • Bay, we might. I'm just not sure yet. I have a little over a month before we would owe more money to the venue, so I'm taking the whole month to decide. I don't want to rush. It's basically my decision because FI doesn't want to postpone, and he promises everything will be fine.

    Aleigh, basically FI has some personal issues that he absolutely needs to work out and it's going to be a process. And we also went through a period of time where we were fighting constantly, although that seems to be much better now.

  • MUNI - My favorite white princess is Belle.

    Angel - I understand where you're coming from. I didn't put a new ticker up until things were 100% resolved and FI was in the midst of treatment. Even then, we put the wedding another year out because we figured that would give us time to focus on us before leaping back into wedding planning. When we postponed it, we were eight months out, and when things got better, we were down to 6-ish months. We didn't want that kind of pressure on top of everything else.

    I'm not telling you what to do... just sharing my experience. :) *hugs*
  • Wrigley- Belle:
  • Well I hope everything works out for you guys. We had a rocky patch right before the wedding and I was so worried but I think it was the stress of being in school and planning a wedding because things are great now.

    Thanks, Wrigley. We'll see how everything goes in the next month and then I'll decide.

    Belle was always my favorite princess too, but I also liked Cinderella a lot. I'm trying to think fo who the other princesses are. Ariel, Aurora, Jasmine.... that's all I got off the top of my head.

    ETA - And thanks, Aleigh :)

    <div>Snow White, Rapunzel, Mulan, Pocahontas, Tiana.  I think they call Alice, Wendy, and Tinkerbell princesses now too, but that's silly.</div>
  • Ariel was always my favorite.  I wanted to be a mermaid so bad when I was little.
