Hey ladies, hope you all are doing well!  I am sooo behind in checking this site - I need to take time today to catch up!  I moved from Atlanta to Cincinnati on Tuesday of this week, so I've been trying to get settled in my new place since then.  I don't have Internet set up at home yet and I haven't been able to get online except for when I'm at FI's house.  I love Cincinnati so far - we've had a great week!  I will start reading back through older posts soon... sorry in advance for my late responses!  

I missed y'all!  Smile

    Good, I am so looking forward to meeting you and the rest of the Ohio brides!  My BM dress is one of those convertible dresses, so those are some of the ways they can wear it.  But there are even more options...there are online tutorials and everything showing them how to tie them to get all those different looks!  I'm hoping my BMs will truly be able to wear the dresses again after the wedding, since the dress is so versatile.  And it doesn't wrinkle at all...I absolutely love the fabric!  Do you have a pic of your BM dresses that you can post?

    @ Cincy2011 I tried yesterday posting to my signature, but the attempt failed.  Here is a picture of my BM's dresses I got it from David's Bridal.  I had to change the color to Latte last month since the Truffle looked so horrible with the men's chocolate tuxs.  The truffle dress has a purple tint to it that you really couldn't tells was there until matching it with anything chocolate.  I was really pissed, but I'm glad it wasn't a bridezilla moment.  LOL.  Now I am trying to determine what color shoes I should go with.  What do you think?

    <div>Thanks MIABRIDE!  It is definitely awesome to finally be in the same city as FI.  We watched the game together last night at his condo and it felt so good to not be thinking about when I have to leave and go back to Atlanta!!  </div>

    </div><div>Thanks Date Twin!  That's right, you're moving as well.  Ugh!  Yes, it is definitely frustrating to move, but I'm praying that you'll have a safe and easy move to Cary!  When will you officially be in your new home?  Or are you there already?

    <div>PB, I always have trouble posting pics in my siggy, but if you go to tinypic.com and upload your picture, then copy/paste the code that is for web sites into your siggy, it should work.  I love your BM dress, it's so pretty!  The color is very classy and elegant.  I'm not sure if you're having gold or silver accents in your wedding, but I would have them either wear a gold or a bronze color shoe with that dress.  I am always partial to metallic shoes, plus they can usually wear them again with other outfits! </div>

    <div>Thanks Ty!  I bought my dress from Etsy - the girls name was erinleighheart (I think).  I can look it up if you're interested.  They are VERY affordable too - if you buy 4 or more, they end up being about $80!!!</div>

    <div>Thanks mzpassion!  We had been planning it for several months and I have to give God the glory b/c He worked everything out so perfectly that I got to move here sooner than I thought I would!  I expected to be in Atlanta until about September, just thinking that I couldn't find a job right away, wouldn't be able to sell/rent my condo right away, etc.  But God worked all of that out!!  He is so good!  </div>

    <div>Thanks lucky!  I know you moved recently also...are you all settled in?  Did you jump right into unpacking or take your time with it?  I jumped in on the necessary things (bathroom, kitchen, underwear - LOL) but the other stuff is taking me forever to put away!  I think too, I know I'll only be in this apartment for one year before moving into my FI's condo, so I don't know that I even care to unpack a lot of decorative stuff, etc. when I have to pack it all up again in 1 year!  </div>

    I will definitely have to check out ETSY. I've never shopped on there. I really don't like the site. Maybe because I'm not a real online shopper.

    And will you PLEASE get on FB!!! PLEASE!!! Don't make me beg!!! lol
