I am new to the site .  My wedding is not until August 25,2012 My mom just passed away so wedding planning is keeping me busy.

Welcome Diva! We are glad to have you. You have a little over a year to plan. Do you have a theme yet? Color Choices?

Married life is treating me great! I can't get over how fast time flies! I'm glad you are having a church wedding. I read a study once where men said they didn't feel that a marriage was real if it didn't happen in church!!! Who would thiik that guys could be so sappy and sentimental? I personally wanted to be married in a garden. I still might when I renew my vows.

I love, love, love the green apple place card holders or escort card holders. Apples are a perfect summer fruit and the color is to die for.

Congrats on your wedding and welcome!

Thank you.  I am having a hard time trying to comment on the post received .

The ideas you sent were beautiful but I have changed the color.  Before my mom passed away she told me my wedding would be pink so I havae changed the colors to pink and red.

Use something bright and bold for a cocktail reception or dusty tones for a shabby chic event.
- Make sure you pick the right red and pink combination. Neon pink and a deep red probably won’t look the most pulled together.
- Don’t try to use too many shades of either color. Lighten and darken them to get whatever shade or tone you want, but too many shades of pink paired with too many reds might overwhelm the eye.

I have some ideas to send to you but I do not know how?

Do you mean images? When you reply, at the top of the text window are buttons that help make posting easier. The button that looks like a picture of the mountains will add a photo from any where on the net when you click it and copy and paste the image url in the space.
