Bridesmaid Bouquet

April 30th, 2007 @ 11:30 am by Mrs. Raspberry

I have finally decided on a bouquet for the bridesmaids, and this time I promise, I won’t change my mind…

I have been through 3 different bouquets - mostly because the flowers I wanted (amaryllis, then peonies) really aren’t available in the middle of July - unless I want to spend and arm and a leg…

So I have decided to go with this…

Open Question: MIL Budget Woes

April 30th, 2007 @ 11:02 am by Open Question

I have a dilemma now I didn’t expect to have. Until two weeks ago I had a location and was ready to sign a contract for an October wedding, when my mother in law sent an email to my fiance and I asking if we really insisted on having the wedding on a Friday, which posed a problem for her guests. I live away from…

Elvis = Lives!

I don’t know about anyone else, but I’m going to make my guests earn their cake and bubbly. None of this come-as-you-may, pampered and indulged nonsense. There will be challenges to be met. Obstacles to overcome. Puzzles to…puzzle out.

Take for instance, the table names. This baloney:

is entirely too easy. Enter my favorite online wordscrambler. In three easy steps, you can create your own personalized placecard-to-table puzzles…

I am calling our theme "Vintage Inspired French/Asian Fusion." Mr. Emerald is very involved in the planning process, but of course he generally defers to me cuz I have a strong opinion of how I want everything to be :-).
About Mrs. Emerald

Unfortunately for me, the majority of Mr. E’s family speaks 90% Cantonese, and 10% English. I, on the other hand, speak about 99% English and 1% Cantonese. (My vocab consists of “I am hungry,” “Tastes good,” and “I love you.”) This makes communcation a bit difficult to say the least! His family gets together frequently for dinners, birthdays, holidays, etc., and I am always invited.…

That’s AUNT Kiwi To You!

April 27th, 2007 @ 3:49 pm by Mrs. Kiwi

Miss Bluebell’s family post made me think, for those of you who have future nieces and nephews, how are they going to refer to you? I’m pondering this because although Grandma Kiwi calls me “Aunt Kiwi” to my future nephews and niece–they seem to just take to calling me “Kiwi”. It’s too bad because I want to be someone’s aunt! I LOVE the idea!

Top Ten Signs You’re A Ribbonaholic

April 27th, 2007 @ 2:23 pm by Mrs. Lovebug

10. Your ribbons are tied to things using other ribbons.

9. Words like “festoon” and “garland” enjoy daily use in your vocabulary.

8. Your friends and family staged an intervention that involved you shredding five yards of double-faced satin ribbon with dull pinking shears.

7. You can say “ribbon” in French, German, and Italian (from specialty orders overseas).

6. You get around your fiance’s “No More Ribbon!” rule by…

Not only was it a fantastic opportunity to mingle with some of the top people in the biz, we got to spend 4 days in the beautiful Cayman Islands! What an honor for weddingbee to be invited!

DIY Pocketfolds Finished!!!

April 27th, 2007 @ 1:21 pm by Mrs. Hibiscus

Here is the fruit of my many hours of labor: My completed Pocketfold invites. Basically, I thought I couldn’t afford them. I had given up on the idea. Even if I got a basic Pocketfold with only one or two ink colors, I would be running at $6.00 an invite, minimum. Then, I found Cards and Pockets which helped make my invitation dream a reality.…

Mr. Kiwi Won’t Share!

April 27th, 2007 @ 12:49 pm by Mrs. Kiwi

While I’ve never really wanted a mother-in-law to call “Mom”, I always thought it was cool when people did have that close relationship. My future in-laws (the ones not blood-related to MIL), call my future MIL “Lita”. Mr. Kiwi’s brother and sister call her Mom. Mr. Kiwi, however, calls her “Em”.

See, Mr. Kiwi’s mom goes by the nickname “Lita”, short for Emerita. At her work…
