Mrs. Kiwi's Picture
Mrs. Kiwi, Los Angeles Age and Occupation in 06: 27, Bookkeeper Fiance's Age and Occupation: 27, P.E. Teach/Coach @ private schools in LA Engagement Date: March 31, 2006 Wedding Date: November 3, 2007 Venue: Radisson Hotel About Me: I'm a bookkeeper who failed high school algebra. I'm currently living in Los Angeles, literally a street over from where I grew up with Mr. Kiwi, my honey of three years. We have a jumbo mini-dachshund (seriously, he's huuuuge), and we're planning an autumn themed wedding on a shoestring, paid for by ourselves. The wedding date is my late grandma's birthday, I needed her there somehow, and that seemed like the best way for us. I can't believe I'm a Bee! I couldn't be more proud!

Bride in Overdrive

February 28th, 2007 @ 12:04 pm by Mrs. Kiwi

When I first got engaged, I swept up any and all books with the words “marriage”, “bride” and “wedding” in the title. Now, almost a year later, I finally finished one of them.

The book is “Bride in Overdrive” by Jorie Green Mark - it’s a non-fiction book about her descent into wedding insanity, and how she came out of it unscathed. This book is hilarious!

One…

My Dee-lightful Wedding Recap (part three)

February 27th, 2007 @ 5:39 pm by Mrs. Beetle

One of the major highlights of our wedding was the food. Not that I had too much of it, but people were raving all night long about the utter delicious-ness of absolutely everything. We used a caterer from LA called Savore. They were unbelievable to work with, full of amazing ideas and, the food was really over the top spectacular.

In truth, I had never been…

We came…we saw…we “I do’d.”

October 21 was a pretty magical day from start to finish (despite some major snafus). Yep…it went by in a flash. Yep…many things went wrong, but our wedding day was still more dreamy/fantastic/over the top/delicious/fun than I could have ever imagined. Here are the deets:

Our wedding was in Big Horn (a fancy shmancy community in Palm Desert, CA where my aunt,…

Lessons Learned

January 31st, 2007 @ 9:29 am by Mrs. Snail

When it came to the planning process, I admit, I really stressed myself out and drove people around me crazy because I was so unorganized. Here are my wedding day imperfections:

1. In one of my close up detail pictures, there’s a shot of my nice pedicured foot in bronze sandals. That was not what I wore day of. I placed a special order for custom…

Things I Would Have Done Differently….

December 13th, 2006 @ 5:41 pm by Mrs. Butterfly

I was thinking about my wedding the other day….who am I kidding. I think about my wedding every day. Why? Because I can’t wait to get my pictures, and when I start thinking about all the beautiful shots, I start playing the wedding over and over in my mind. Also I went to Mrs. Snail’s wedding this past Sunday, so I’ve been surrounded by weddings.

Anyway,…

Vendor Review, Addendum

December 5th, 2006 @ 9:57 pm by Mrs. Butterfly

Ah!! How could I forget about my paper and invitations vendor?

Invitations and Other Paper Items - Custom-Programs
Oh, how I loved my invitations. Unfortunately, due to a small mistake, I will have no professional pictures of them. Boooooohoooooo! I will, however, have pictures of my escort cards, menus, table cards, and programs.

Vendor Review, Part II

Here are the rest of the reviews!

Wedding Dress - Casablanca (MyrJan Bridal)
I absolutely loved my wedding dress. The alterations were done by Fancy Cleaners (check the Tuesdays “Sales” blogs for a discount!). Everything about the dress was perfect! The veil was from MyrJan and the tailor altered it because I didn’t like the original length too much. MyrJan Bridal was good to deal with as a…

Overall, I was realllllly happy with all my vendors. But here are the details anyway.
