19!! Eek! I feel like I should be doing something. I think I'm sort of disconnected from my body. I hope I come back down to earth in time for the wedding :) I'm hoping that when I finish up at work next week it will start to feel more real!

As others have said, there is no reason you must have 6 GMs. If you've got 3 people you want, have those 3 people. Choosing someone just to make up the numbers is never a good idea. However, if you're close to your brothers and they *are* your friends, I wouldn't hesitate to include them on your side. My sister's husband had his 2 sisters as his attendants (we had an all female wedding party! It was a blast!) and no one thought it was because he had no friends - it was because they are very important people in his life and he wanted them standing up beside him :)

I need help! I can't decide between turquoise and red or turquoise and orange for my late-May wedding. If I went with orange I might throw some yellow in. It's so hard choosing colors! I love them all! lol I already know what invites I want for the orange, and have seen some red ones I liked. Thanks hive!

Heee, I know all about that! I spent all of last night working on stuff for the invitations and the wedsite and then I was exhausted and migrainey all day today. No fun. To all the ladies going to bed now, have a good night! :)

@million -- seriously? you're amazing! i could totally use some help finding bridesmaid dresses! you asked for it so here goes :) i'm looking for dresses that have all the following elements: (1) dark purple (think eggplant/plum/amethyst) (2) floor length, (3) NOT strapless. i'm thinking a fabric like chiffon is good - (4) nothing too clingy or that shows the tummy rolls - the girls will feel too uncomfortable in that (e.g., fitted satin). here's the catch - (5) i want them to spend under $150 each. and i DONT want them to look cheap! this is a formal black tie wedding and i want things to look classy, but that doesn't mean i want to break my bridesmaids' banks! show me whatcha got :) thanks so much for your offer! and if this seems like a hopeless hunt just say so!! haha.

Shame JennC, I'm really sorry to hear that. Did you write your own vows or did you do traditional vows? Much like Mr. Bee suggested, why not try to recapture/relive the exchange of those vows? You could organize a candlelit, romantic dinner at home, get dressed up, set out some lovely flowers on the dinner table ... whatever you want to make it super special. Then at some point in the evening stand face to face, hold hands, look into each others' eyes, and exchange your vows again. The bonus is that you can get away with saying more intimate, personal things this time that wouldn't have made it into the ceremony. You're absolutely right -- at the end of the day the tablecloths and centerpieces are all frills. The wedding is about the words and promises that you exchange. So do it in a very focused, private way and I'll bet that's something that neither of you will ever forget!

seattlemeetsmontana on "How Much Will Your Wedding Cost/ Did it?"

seattlemeetsmontana — Mon, 23 Nov 2009 01:23:56 +0000

Our budget right now is at $16,500 including rings but not honeymoon. My parents are helping pay for part of the wedding and say we can keep any leftover money to put towards a down payment on a house. I would LOVE to shave a few thousand off and I think it may be feasible but we do have 220 guests with a full meal...There's got to be a way though!

EXACTLY, missab! Like I get away with so much at work, constantly pushing that line a little further that I'm afraid I'll overdo it in the real world! Goodnight 50!

You guys are amazing. I just checked in before going to bed and the thread is hundreds of posts above where I saw it an hour and a half ago! @50- Congrats on leveling up! It's definitely a color change. I think it depends on your computer screen. I know that I see a bigger difference on my PC laptop than on my iMac. Goodnight All!!

Definitely do not stress about this.  I may also have more GM's than BM's.  I think it's more important to have those close to you stand with you rather than trying to hit a certain number. Jalter is exactly right about how to get them down the aisle.
