Pft! As if! Where would the reception be held? A disused rebel base? I don't think so! Besides, that dump is way too remote for an effective demonstration of this fully armed and operational battlestation!

I mean, wedding.

*cough*


What? Its a common typo...

No idea, but I'd highly recommend buying your dress now. Every bridal shop I see has 50% sales since it's the off season, so you can get something amaaaaaazing within budget.

Congrats!

Thanks!

As for the dress, I've been told that too by a couple of different people today.

The only thing is that we have no idea where/when the wedding will be...

If we go through with getting hitched in Algonquin Park in Ontario, I don't want to lug a full length gown across a 20km portage and then get changed into it, then get out again...

But if we hold it in a hall with a justice of the peace... you're damn right I'm doin it up proper!

So hummm....

Any suggestions on stores in Vic/Van?

Vic: Blush Bridal Boutique on Johnson (next to Odeon Alley), Luz Bridal Boutique on the corner of Hillside and Quadra, Angela's Fashions on Fort near Quadra, and Shades of White near Town & Country mall.

Van: New West is basically wedding town.

As per your conundrum, maybe try to decide fast? I know that if/when I get married I'm just going to shop till I find 'the dress' and then plan the wedding around it.

My wife found the dress she liked in New West and then bought it from this girl for 500 or so dollars less.

That Trinklets place is good.

Columbia street in New West is a good place to start. Can't remember the name of the store, but one of my closest girlfriends found the most amazing wedding dress there. Seriously one of the most stunning dresses I've ever seen on a woman. I guess it helps that she looks like a model.

East Hastings (slightly east of PNE)

Stay away from Bryan's Bridal.

I'm the only non-marriage obsessed wedding obsessed person I know. Hehehehe

Congrats

Thanks for the suggestions :)

I've got at least 15 pages bookmarked now with dresses for me and my bridesmaids.

Does the maid of honour wear something along the same style as the rest of the girls? or does it have to be the exact same?

The idea of "something COULD happen Friday night!" popped into my head, but I didn't think it was anything THIS BIG!

So I asked him where we were going/what I should wear etc... and he gave me no details, but said "wear a red dress".

On Thursday night, i found out the "date" started with Salmon Kings tickets followed by dinner at a nice restaurant.

So Friday rolls around, and I'm in a new red dress and he went out and bought a matching shirt and tie... bought me flowers and we opened a nice bottle of wine. We head out to the hockey game, dressed to the 9's, and then leave for dinner at Cafe Brio.

Around 11pm, we ordered dessert, and looked at me and said I looked beautiful... to which I replied "I look so damn good right now, you should have planned on proposing tonight!" and then BOOM! He said the most amazing and romantic things then pulled a ring out and asked me to marry him.

I, of course, said yes instantly and started thinking I should have worn waterproof mascara.

Anyway, so yeah! I'm stoked!

Your bridesmaids don't have to match each other. It's entirely up to you.

That is pretty romantic. Got pics?

this gets a big awwww.


the last wedding i went to...the bridesmaids had identical dresses but the maid of honor wore a different color (same dress tho).
i love the idea of all the brides maids/maid of honor wearing the same color/material but different styles/cuts to suit individual body types.

i vote esi as the person most likely to become a wedding planner. and yes. id hire her.
