Re: Turiya's Blog

Re: Turiya's Blog

Yeah I am ...Me and FH were planning to go out -just us ...but I told him we can save that for after the wedding. Neither member on our team has mention a party for us ...and we did want a Co-ed one if we had one, bc FH doesn't want a bachelor party at all ...and I didn't want one "planned" for me bc of the headache I endured with the other 2 weddings this year. I think our team took us up on our wishes bc 3 weeks left and we haven't heard anything. So we are planning an US day before the wedding ...:) Not sure what yet though ...

Rhony? ...Do I remember you telling me -you walked in on We Must Be In Love-Pure Soul? That's my entrance song ...and I wanted to know how much of the song actually got played before you got to the alter ...I'm almost for certain the song will have to get cut for me.

I used this song also (at previous wedding) and what I did was let it play for about 30 secs before I made my entrance...maybe you can let it play longer...

I wanted to do that ...but a team member told me that wouldn't look nice, that she rather me come out and and let the song play a little longer after I get there....

So did it work ok for to let it play a little before you came out?

Yes my sister I walked in to that song -- it was awesome. The aisle I don't remember how long the aisle was, but a sistah took her sweet time! I would estimate that 75% of the song was played. Girl you just bought back such a wonderful memory for me!!!!

Re: Turiya's Blog

I'm getting the jitters too! Annnnnd I've been fighting a migraine since Saturday night! I am drained (from the headache) and haven't been able to do much of anything ...it's only small stuff left but I want it out of the way :)

I do want to ask a question that I've been tossing with ...for some reason I was thinking that the trim around the veil was just a little too much because I have so much beading on the dress so I made another one with no trim just smooth flow still cathedral but with a second teir (waste length) ...you know what I was invisioning?

...me coming down the stairs with the veil being able to flow not drag bc of the heavy trim [img]http://images.inmagine.com/img/fstop/fs347/fs347040.jpg[/img]

or trim just at the bottom [img]http://ladyrebecca.com/wedding/bio/dress2.jpg[/img]

...What are your thoughts?

Re: Turiya's Blog

I love the trim on the veil. I think you should leave it on. I was planning to wear my veil on my wedding day but my hubby left it in our truck. (I bought a veil from Wal-Mart, added some rhinestones, and used a gold glitter pen on the trim of the veil).

Turiya, the original veil that you made go so well with the dress, please leave it as it. I know that you're feeling antsy, but no changes on the veil girl. It's absolutely magnificent the way that it is.

Re: Turiya's Blog

Great question Msj. Tell us about the breakfast. Girl, you should've let your girls go ahead with the showers. They're so much fun. I know that you didn't want to be a burden to them, but it's traditional. I applaude you for being conscious of your girls because no one would've given it another thought because a shower is always expected.

Waiting for you to still dish about the bridal breakfast.

Re: Turiya's Blog

Trust me ...I would have loved one. But it was easier for everyone for me to opt not to have one planned. My mother drove up from VA which was a nice touch :)

We are have a Co-ed party (with the entire wedding party with some other friends) this saturday ...and we are going to have ball! :)

Re: Turiya's Blog

I need suggestions for "Parents and Honored Guest" being seated song during the ceremony. At first (and still may, but it's not sitting with me well) we were using For You-Kenny L. but that was when FH was coming out first and it was the "Groom's Song" ...but we put him entering after the Parents and Honored Guest so he can lite his father candle and lay his rose on his chair ...so I was thinking the song should be geared more towards for the Parents and not the Groom.

I like the Wind Beneath My Wings-but we are already using this during the reception dedicated to the parents.
