huge sigh of relief

We have photographers!!! I've loved these guys since I first saw their work & can't tell you how excited I am that we were able to hire them. One more thing off the list!

Hopefully this weekend I'll be deciding on the dress!

Re huge sigh of relief

Oh yeah, those guys are good. Glad you were able to get them.

Yes, folks, we need a dress soon. We had The Dress. We decided The Dress was not THE Dress. So we are looking at two other Dresses, hopefully one will be THE DRESS!

(Of course, I sent her another dress that I really liked yesterday, but I'm not contributing to the indecision. I'm really not. I swear.)

Re huge sigh of relief

That's it? Usually my sigh of relief came with a negative on the pg test.

Gee, with this and the grain pillow I'm started to get a little jaded about these threads.

But seriously, I'm glad to hear that the wedding plans are coming along.

Re huge sigh of relief

I've decided the only good and juicy threads are kept strictly in the women's forum.

Rings are so passe. Now all the Cool Kids are getting their ring fingers tattooed with their partner's names and stuff.

Re huge sigh of relief

I looked at the rings with an artist eye - some interesting concepts. The bone one ooked me out though.

We went to the place where Bree and Nick are having the reception - very quaint, rustic, adorable place in a gorgeous setting. Oh, did I mention it's a barn? I really like it though - it's clean and will be perfect for what they have planned.

My granddaughter has just started her own photography business Home Page and I sent her the link to the limonlime guys and she was impressed. She said it gave her a lot of inspiration.

Re huge sigh of relief

We are getting our wedding date engraved inside our rings, but unfortunately won’t have the heat part.

I ordered my dress this weekend! I’m so excited. I have the bridesmaid dresses picked out too, but we won’t order those until November. So now I have to find a caterer, DJ, & florist, & we’ll have all the big stuff done!

Jon, you don't like jewelry! I'm surprised you found anything you like.

Re huge sigh of relief

6th of last month I did a wedding reception where the bride and her mother had different ideas. My problem was I didn't know that until I arrived on site.

Bride picked out cedar boxes as her chafers when she had a choice of the those or silver with gold trimmed. Mom calls me two nights before and request white linen and table skirts on the buffet station. I asked if this was turning out more formal than I was told because the cedar boxes were for an informal table. Mom says whatever her daughter picked out would be fine.

We arrived and the site was decorated very formal, and I was there with cedar boxes. Needless to say the buffet station went as planned and the bride didn't give a rat's butt. The bride's mom wasn't the happiest, though.

I told Bree we should have you cater, Slick.

(this Bride's mother wouldn't give a rat's butt, as long as it tastes good)

Re huge sigh of relief

Here's where we found rings when renewed our vows a couple of years ago:

Search Results - James Avery Craftsman Jewelry

Curtis Edmonds recommended them, he and his wife got theirs from this place as well. Great prices, and lots of interesting designs.

This is the ring we chose:

Classic Smooth Wedding Band from James Avery

Re huge sigh of relief

Someone else told me about James Avery at one time too, but I don't remember who or when. The name is really familiar though.

We'll be getting Nick's ring the same place he got both of mine. We really like the place & they were really helpful, so we'll give them the repeat business.
