Day Three Hundred & Twenty-Three. - Project 365.




Day Three Hundred & Twenty-Three. - Bride & Groom Thank-You's. - Finally, almost two months after the wedding, I purchased Thank-You cards to sent out to everyone who came to the wedding. Each pay day I would tell Mr. V that we needed to purchase, and send them out, but I kept putting it off until now. Hopefully it won't be another month before I stamp and send them off.

Day Two Hundred & Ninety-Seven. - Project 365.




Day Two Hundred & Ninety-Seven. - Cleaning Up. - I finally decided to go through all the wedding decorations and put them away after putting it off for a good amount of time, I'd say. Now, at least, our computer room is less cluttered.

Day Two Hundred & Seventy. - Project 365.




Day Two Hundred & Seventy. - Here Comes The Bride! - My Photographer set my dress up aganist the window to take a few shots and I decided to snap one with my camera, too. Although the day was pretty nervewracking, I was fine until my hair appointment, I don't think it could have happened any better. I wasn't even that nervous until we got in front of the doors to walk down the aisle and then I started shaking. Walking down the aisle watching William's face brought tears to my eyes and as I stood across from him I could stop smiling, or whispering to him. I was so nervous that I even forgot to get my bouquet back from my brother, who was my Man of Honor, and he had to walk down the aisle with it. Poor thing! I'll be able to post a video soon, too, since we were able to have the church record it for us. I have never felt more beautiful in my life then on this day.

Day Two Hundred & Sixty-Seven. - Project 365.




Day Two Hundred & Sixty-Seven. - Wedding Centerpieces. - I finally made a decision on how I want our centerpieces to look. With the help of my future mother-in-law we found these gorgeous candle holders with crackled glass glued onto them with various fall colors along with the orange plate. We also bought the purple table cloths which I think match perfectly. Everything is really falling together and looking great!

Day Two Hundred & Sixty-Six. - Project 365.




Day Two Hundred & Sixty-Six. - Wedding Programs. - William found a template online that we both liked and decided that we would rather print our own programs then buy them online. We found program paper at Target for fairly cheap and finally sat down and printed out all fifty programs. Of course a few were test runs to make sure we were printing correctly before we finally figured it out. I think they came out pretty nice, a little plain, and was hoping to find a little purple bow to hot glue to the top but had no such life. I suppose these will have to do. Four more days until the big day!!

Day Two Hundred & Sixty-Five. - Project 365.




Day Two Hundred & Sixty-Five. - Tossing Bouquet. - I'm not sure why the bow came out blue in photos in real life it was a dark purple. Anyway, my tossing bouquet is finally finished and was made with the scraps that were left over from all the other bouquet's. I have to say I'm pretty impressed and that this came out really cute, I wish I could keep it for myself, and I'm very happy with all the bouquet's and bouts. Makes me even more excited to see everything put together!

Day Two Hundred & Sixty-Two. - Project 365.




Day Two Hundred & Sixty-Two. - Party Dress! - William and I met up with my bridesmaid for dinner, at Panera Bread, so that she and I could go shopping for a new dress and lingerie for the wedding night. After searching for a few dresses I tried them on and fell in love with this one. And I knew I'd be able to wear it on more then one occasion, Bachelorette Party, Wedding After Party and on the Honeymoon, so I was sold. We also found some really pretty things for the wedding night so I am pretty excited about it all.

Day Two Hundred & Fifty-Four. - Project 365.




Day Two Hundred & Fifty-Four. - Wedding Leaves. - Instead of having the traditional roses on the aisle runner we will be having these placed on the runner. Since we aren't having a flower girl someone in my wedding party will have to put them on before I make my grand entrance. I think they fit perfectly into my Fall them as well!

Day Two Hundred & Forty-Nine. - Project 365.




Day Two Hundred & Forty-Nine. - BirdCage Veils. - My veil finally arrived today! I was so excited to see a little package sitting on our front porch when I got home from work. It's not your normal veil, though, it's a birdcage on. These just go over your face but I think they are so adorable! I added little pearls on them as an accent and though I could have probably made this myself for cheaper I really don't have the time or patience for that matter. I can't wait to see how it looks with my dress on the day of!

Day Two Hundred & Forty-Eight. - Project 365.



Day Two Hundred & Forty-Eight. - Centerpiece Ideas. - The way I want my centerpieces have changed a least a dozen times but I found this really cute fall themed wreath to go around the bottom of the glass bowls and now my mission is to find a glass bowl to go with it. The only thing I haven't decided is what to put in the glass bowls. I'm thinking a floating candle or something along those lines. Hopefully I'll get my act together and make a decision pretty quickly since time is running out!

Day Two Hundred & Forty-Seven. - Project 365.




Day Two Hundred & Forty-Seven. - Make-Up Trial. - Please don't mind my hair it's unruly these days. Anyway, I had my makeup trial today and I am so impressed! The girl was so nice and I loved that she had a toolbelt full of brushes and applicators. We decided to do a smokey purple/violet eye with a muted lip. I really wanted to play up my eyes since I think they are my best feature and she did a great job doing so! I also loved that the makeup stayed on all day, even the foundation, too. I'm so excited to have her do my makeup for the wedding! Gee, I wish I could afford MAC products there much better then anything I've ever used!

Day Two Hundred & Forty-Five. - Project 365.




Day Two Hundred & Forty-Five. - Wedding Flowers. - I finally found a girl to put all my bouquets and bouts for me, a girl from work, so we went to Hobby Lobby and found all their flowers on sale! I ended up buying everything I needed for the girls, guys and mother in laws for only 50 dollars! What a steal!

Day Two Hundred & Forty-Four. - Project 365.




Day Two Hundred & Forty-Four. - Mother of the Groom Attire. - I was so happy to hear that my soon-to-be Mother in Law had found a dress for the wedding! Her and my Mom both had been having trouble finding something to wear for the special occassion. She found this little gem and Dillards on sale and couldn't pass it up. I can't wait to see how she looks in it, I'm sure it will be gorgeous!

Day Two Hundred & Forty. - Project 365.




Day Two Hundred & Forty. - Alterations Never Done. - This is probably one of the worst days I've had in a long time and the worst expierence I've ever had with David's Bridal. I took my dress in to get alterations done and after standing, in heels, for an hour and a half the lady was finally finished. She had a pretty bad attitude but I blew it off as her having a bad day, she mentioned she had a headache, but the way I was treated after this was unacceptable. I also was poked about a million times, I'm exaggerating, with the pins and had a nice little scratch on my leg. Anyway, I wasn't going to be able to pay the day that I did the alterations and I made the seamstress aware of that and she said I could come back Sunday and pay and to let the girls at the front counter know. I tell the girls at the counter what she said and they started to ring me up anyway. I camly tell her that I would be coming back Sunday and the seamstress said it was okay. Then asked if I could get some sort of paper stating that they had my dress and was told I could not until I paid. I started to walk out of the store and then turned around and told them to give me my dress back. I was not about to leave my dress somewhere where I have no proof that it's there. What if it gets lost? And I simply could not see myself paying two hundred dollars for a inch or two off the bottom. So I took my dress, in tears, and left the store. I sat out in my car for a few minutes to calm down and then drove home and wrote their headquarters a e-mail. They said they could still do the alterations but could not change the price. Needless to say I will never be shopping there again, or recommending it to anyone.
