I just saw your post now, Coco. Thank you! I go for my hair trial on the 22nd and I'm hoping to have my veil by then, but if not at least I have my headpiece. I hope it works well with the styles I have in mind. I went to meet with the church secretary today who so graciously offered to do our programs for us. There's a chance she may be leaving her job at the church soon so she wants to get the programs done before then so she can still utilize the church's copier, stapler, and paper trimmer, etc. So she put one of the programs together for me so I could see it and be able to make any changes or revisions that were necessary. I was a little leary about giving up control over my programs but they turned out beautifully! Absolutely perfect! Such a relief for me. Then I went to meet with the jeweler to see the newest wax mold for my wedding band. It too was perfect! Exactly what I wanted! They got the go ahead and hopefully my band will be done in 2-3 weeks. Now we have to get started on finding a band for Steve... Just wanted to share. Everyone in my RL is getting fed up with hearing wedding details, I'm sure. It's nice to have a place to come and get it out of my system. Thanks!

First of all thank you Jmm for posting the pics for me, you are a doll. You are all way too kind! Thank you so much, it sure does make me feel good. I have to say this wedding was put together in 8 weeks and it really did turn out very well and the reception was just lovely. My new DIL did it all herself because she is a control freak - just stating the facts. These pictures were snapshots that my cousin took so a few were fuzzy (she does love her cocktails, and yes before the wedding, lol) The reason for the fast wedding arrangements is that well DH and I are going to be grandparents. There is no other way to say it except straight out: we were very, very disappointed and I was more than a little bitter over the circumstances. I have since calmed down and faced reality. They are grown, I love Kandyn, Chase will be a great husband and father and this should be really fun to watch. LOL PLUS, there's gonna be a BABY!!!! Anyway, I wish Kendall was smiling in those pics, he has the most beautiful smile and it looks like he smells something bad. ha

Also, got a txt message that my wedding invitation sample i've been waiting on came. Get to open that when I get home from work tonight! I'm so excited. PICTURES TO COME! Also, in related news...Got an email from my groom today. He's doing well...Missing us, but dealing alright.

Thank you everyone for your kind posts. Sea, I look forward to meeting you also! Yes Herck, Beth and Kendall have been together for 6 years now and I love her so much. They are perfectly matched. I took some black and white photos at the wedding and they came out so beautifully. One brought tears to my eyes and really gives me hope for my son and DIL life together. It dawned on me, hey she really loves him! I didn't mean to come in and hi-jack this thread. Even though I've never commented I sure have kept a close eye on everyone's planning whenever I visit the site. Shoot, I remember when Froggie set the date and here it almost is! Time has flown, seems like. Good luck to all the brides and please try to include your mother in law to be, especially if she doesn't have any daughters. Remember her son is getting married also and the day means just as much to her as it does your mother. (end of lecture)

pppssstt.... even those of us MIL's with daughter's love to be included. Giddy's wedding is such fun to be part of, I am having the time of my life. We spend hours searching for good deals on all the items she needs and wants. Since she's in college full time she's never home when the delivery trucks come so I get to take the packages off the porch and text message her. So far this is how it's been going, she tells me her dreams and I do the preliminary work on finding out how we can make them come true. I'm so thrilled with her ideas and thanks to the internet so far we haven't found anything out of reach. Giddy is an English major and my son is a well entrenched bibliophile so Giddy's incorporation of Books as a wedding theme is very appropriate and personal. From the center pieces (decorated books) to the favors (beaded book marks) to registering with the "I Do Foundation" (makes a 10% donation to First Books for all wedding related purchases) I can't help but glow with pride in her.

ROFL, Mocha you have a kindred soul in Giddy, she is a shoe diva also. Hopefully she'll post a picture for you soon. She'll pose for a picture in the tiara and veil shortly, right now she's got a cold and a red nose! (Oh won't I be in trouble when she read this, hehe) I think her wedding dress pictures are in her folder, along with a prototype of the center piece and book marks.

Giddy is pounded with college papers, so I'm posting some of the pictures for her. Here are Giddy's shoes: Remember her gown is more of a Renaissance style.
