ARTISTIC ADDRESSING.com: A++++++
I gave them my guest list and in 3 days I had beautiful enveloped place cards. They have beautiful stuff on that website.

Other stuff:
I did have a bouquet toss and garter toss but I didn't force the person who caught the garter to have to put it on the girl who caught the bouquet. My little 8 year old cousin caught the bouquet anyway so that would have been gross!
I also had really bad aim and hit the DJ booth with the bouquet...Whoops!
I had a special bouquet presented to a couple that was married 30 years on March 31 (the day after the wedding). I had everyone join in a couple's dance with them to the song 'Amazed' by Lonestar.

My bridesmaid's gifts were tiffany bracelets..
That's all I can think of now!

Well, I am off to Hawaii on Sarturday and I will give a review when I get back...
Thanks for all your well wishes.
Thanks ALIASPOOK, LISA04, and my lurker bridesmaid JUSTaBM..all all the rest of my friends that made my day so wonderful!

Thanks Taraalissa: That dress was sooo heavy and everyone who hugged me almost ripped the headpiece right off my head. I loved my dress..I felt like a princess..
Wow your wedding is coming up soon..

I forgot other funny/special things that happened at my wedding:

I was crying during my vows so I stopped the priest who was making me repeat them...I knew them by heart and continued on my own..
Hey, I waited for almost 30 years to marry the man of my dream..I knew the vows by heart!

The unity candle blew out on the altar..so the priest had to get a box of matches..everyone was laughing!
Priest sneezed and blew his nose (he was wearing a microphone so it was really loud)!
My train was falling off while I was on the altar...MAKE SURE DETACHABLE TRAINS ARE SECURE BEFORE WALKING DOWN THE AISLE!!

Altar boy dropped the top of the decanter for the wine during the Liturgy of the Eucharist..it made a really loud noise....

My mom was talking to someone in the pew...she was so loud that I could hear her and it was very distracting...I turned around and whispered to her' I can here you!!)..Everyone was laughing...

The snow...that was kind of surprising!

Well that's all!

I have to tell you, from the back of the church I don't remember hearing the priest sneeze and I missed the altar boy dropping the decanter (didn't hear a thing!)...but I did notice you said your vows without being prompted!!!

The best part was my mother, I was so embarrassed! I told her that she has to sit by herself at mine because she can't keep quiet in Church and play nicely. I also told her it would be on the video... She looked hurt, and said oh well, it's too late now.

I couldn't hear your mom way back there either. I DID hear the baby cry...it just goes to show the million details the bride is aware of that the guests never see!
