MY wedding plans UPDATE - opinions needed too...

[subaruforestermum]

Well many of you were excited about the plans I shared for my wedding which was suppose to be in March 2009...after we put it off for this year..

Well after then putting it off due to the fact that our baby is due the same weekend we had decided for the wedding, we have finally decided on NOVEMBER NEXT YEAR... 2009...

Soooooo excited, but now nervous, as it means, time to pull my finger out and make long standing plans..

In regards to the bridesmaids I still have 2, only 1 of them has changed....havent told the other girl, but she hasnt bothered to contact me at all, or wish me a happy birthday or anything, so I couldnt be bothered telling her she's no longer a part of it....

I went to the boxing day sales yesterday and from a boutique picked up 2 dresses for $89.90 They were $89.95 EACH.... so I got 2 dresses for the price of 1, and I can dress them up.... One is black the other is a pink, not hot pink like I was after originally, and not the exact style I had in mind, but they are very well made, and very nice dresses indeed...

Getting shirts for the boys, with hot pink screen printing on the backs....not sure what yet, but just hope we can find some long sleeve black pin striped shirts that dont already have printing on them..

What do you think???

Also what is ettiquite in regards to shoes...

See we have bought the girls dresses, and were going to buy some cheap accessories, but with the boys, we were going to buy the boys jeans and shirts is it rude to ask them to buy their own shoes, but stipulate what style you would prefer???

I dont care about underwear, and sh!t like that I'm not going to be that picky, but I would like the shoe styles to be similar, same colours, etc...

Would it also be rude to offer to 'pay' for the recolouring of a bridesmaids hair as it wont go with pink??????

the dresses look great.

its ok to get them to pay for their own shoes.

as for the re-colouring of someones hair - would it be possible for her to style it up so you won't see much of her hair?

My bm's paid for their dress, shoes and hair. All I did was choose the colour theme and I told them I would like long dresses and the rest was all their choice:) They chose gorgoues dresses so I was very happy. With the hair, I suggested they wear it up as mine was going to be down and they were all very easy going and happy about that :yes:
It's your day, your way! If anyone wants to kick a fuss they can just not be in it :p
I like your dresses too :)

I think asking a bridesmaid to colour her hair is unreasonable-could she wear the black? :)

Yeah she more than likely would be in the black, BUT the whole theme of the wedding is black and pink...

Her hair is sometimes deep brown, other times it is a reddish colour... So she changes it all the time herself...

The red she colours it just wouldnt go...at all...with the pink...

I guess all I can do is bring it up...
