I Wanna Scream... Vent and Check

FutureMzHayden · May 2012

So I decided a long time ago to pay for all the BM's shoes to get dyed to the correct color. It would've been so much easier to get the shoes from David's Bridal but due not finding the right size and type we went somewhere else. And they don't dye your shoes unless you buy shoes from them. So I send them off to dyemyshoes.com and I receive a call letting me know that they can NOT dye the shoes due to the type of shoe is not going to take the dye correctly... WTF!!! So I'm pissed. Well I decide that dang it I'm done with trying to do this shoe stuff... So I buy some shoes for everyone from DSW.com and call it a day!!

Receive an email from the venue letting me know that we CAN NOT have open flame candles at the ceremony and reception. Well there goes my candle ceremony and my inspiration and thought for my reception had candles everywhere. Now I'm going to have LED flames...

On a BRIGHT note... We finally made a decision on our honeymoon spot... well a couple of spots... Carnival Cruise to the Carribean and Mexico!!

Just an FYI about your candles...even though your venue doesn't allow open flame doesnt mean you cant have candles. My venue said the same thing but will allow candles as long as they are in something (votive candle holder, pllar, etc.) I'm having floating candles for my ceremony and reception. Just a thought

But congrats on choosing your honeymoon destination!

Luckily you still have some time to search for shoes for your BMs

Congrats on the honeymoon, sounds fun!
