More decisions have been made!!
WOO HOO!
We went to taste the offerings at the venue
to decide what would be served.
What a meal we had!
Everything was DELISH!
We had:
Rosemary Chicken
Tri Tip with sauce (forgot name)
Pasta Pesto
Garlic Mashed Potatoes
Brandon and Tanya chose the Rosemary Chicken and
Garlic Mashed Potatoes (which are to die for by the way!!!)
Italian Salad and Garlic Bread will also be served.
Yummo!!
Tanya revamped the Centerpieces.
They are even prettier ♥
She brought one to see how it would look on the table...
for height and width, etc.
She has done such a fantastic job with them.
She also made a decision on the Bridesmaids Dresses,
separates were chosen.
This top is slightly different than the one she picked.
And this is not her colors...
Her colors will be Pool and Lettuce.
We needed to get Melissa in and measured before the end of Dec.
so while we were in the neighborhood
we ran over to the Bridal Store after the taste testing.
All measured and paid, we left feeling that things were under
very good control.
That lasted until the next day....
Tanya received a call from the Bridal Store.
Evidently Alfred Angelo had discontinued the separate line
a few months ago and failed to notify the store!
The saleswoman found out when she went to place the order.
Unbelievable!!
So poor Tanya is back to square one.
She needs to find the Bridesmaids Dresses by the end of Dec.
in order for them to be ready by June.
Just what you want to be doing during the Holiday rush..NOT!
Feel so bad for her.
But at least it wasn't 'her' dress!
Feel bad for the Store too, but...
Tanya was kind enough to go down and get our money back
Thanks Tanya!!
But the show must go on!
Here is the Flower Girls Dress
It is sooo cute!
While at the Bridal Store I thought I'd better start looking for me.
I've always wanted a dress with a handkerchief hem...not that I had any place to wear it....but I do now!
I like the style of this 2 piece.
It's the wrong color and
way the wrong size (top too big/skirt too small)
but tried it on to get an idea.
Boy do I need to lose weight!!!
It is also from Alfred Angelo...so kind of leery that they may have discontinued one or both pieces.
But I need to get to the Mall and get serous about finding something.
Geesh, I haven't even worn a dress in years!
Wish me luck :)
Sounds like plans are moving along well. Except for the Bridesmaid dresses. My daughter used an online company for bridesmaid dresses since her friends were scattered all over the place. They measured ordered and then had alterations in their own town. It worked out for them. Good luck. It ended up finding a dress for me was the hardest but I did finally and loved it. These are exciting days.
ReplyDeleteThe menu sounds wonderful. I for one would have no problem cleaning my plate. I feel so bad about the brides maid dresses. You have to wonder how these people stay in business when they fail to notify the stores that carry their creations when they discontinue a line. I never find it to be an easy time of shopping for clothes for me. I would rather have bamboo sticks forced under my fingernails than to go clothes shopping. Hope there are no more screw ups ahead of you.
ReplyDeleteHow exciting ~ the time will go so quickly and there is always so much to do when planning a wedding. I really like those centre pieces ~ very unique. I like your dress choice ~ very nice! I am wondering what color you will choose! :)
ReplyDeleteHappy Monday!
