Week off to a good start!

Allison, on March 27, 2018 at 16:57 Posted in Wedding fashion 0 27
Hey brides, I cannot contain my excitement as I announce my shoes came in and they look as amazing as they did when I saw them on the internet!!! Right now, they’re at my parents’ house and I gotta wait to try them on.
My mom also got her dress and loves it! She’s visiting me and we’re going dress shopping in a month. Her dress is a dark navy, with a gold clip on the side and she was full of smiles!
She is certain we are going to find my dress and I’m excited for her visit!!!

    They are my favourite for sure. I've cruised over a dozen times, and with RC about half of them. I don't think they have the Southern Caribbean itinerary in October, but if you guys are willing to wait, I would highly recommend it. My mom says the "ABC's" (Aruba, Bonaire, Curacao), are a famous trio of islands on many travellers' bucket lists. Also, for the honeymoon, the 7 night cruises on the new bigger boats are the same price as the 11 night on the Serenade.

    I love Royal Caribbean! I was on the Western Caribbean last fall, was my first cruise and my FH's and we both loved it! He proposed in Miami before the cruise and we decided we wanted to do our honeymoon on a cruise too! I want to do the Southern for the honeymoon, or the eastern! Probably will book a year or so out.

    The designer might have the dress in a store near you, never know haha

    Ahhh so far away... too far away for a mother of the bride dress... haha. Thanks though!

    Yes, we booked it last week!!! I'm soooo excited. 11 night Southern Caribbean cruise on Royal Caribbean. Aruba, Bonaire, Curacao, Antigua & St. Lucia. Includes 5 days at sea too. It's my favourite cruise line, and I've done both the Eastern & Western ones before (twice... haha.) But I was told the Southern one is much more low key, beautiful, 'mature'.... better for honeymoon I guess. All the balconies sold out 10 months in advance (we wanted to get something special for the honeymoon), so we had to go with just oceanview. I would suggest locking in your reservation as soon as you know which one you want to go on.

    She was so happy with it! It's long too and she's planning on wearing a low heel with it

    I went and bit the bullet. I feel like I will wear these again, probably on our honeymoon later that week and other special occasions. We're also going on a cruise for our honeymoon, somewhere in the Caribbean. Do you know where you're going?

    My mom got her dress at a boutique in London Ontario called Lifestyles. The designer is Frank Lyman Smiley smile

    They look super comfortable, I went with a lower heel (There were different heel height options) so I should be comfortable for most of the evening. I'm also super clumsy in heels over 4 inches so I went with 3 inches

    Amazing shoes!!! I'm torn about getting some "BAM" shoes for the wedding, but then spending that money on shoes I will probably never wear again... We are going on a honeymoon cruise the day after the wedding, so I guess I could get another wear or two out of some fancy heels....

    The dress for your mom looks great! My main colour is navy, so I'm definitely loving it. Where did she get it from?

    And super comfortable! I don't normally wear heels so I knew I wanted something not too high with a solid heel (no flimsy stiletto heels for this girl) and they had to be purple!

    I'm in love with my shoes too! Found them on clearance at DSW and my fiance actually picked them out! They look more pink than they are in these photos, they are actually purple which is my color!

    Here's the website where I got the shoes if anyone was curious. They're a little on the pricey side, but I'll probably wear these after the wedding many times! They have a range of shoes, from sky-high stilettos to vans and other flats!

    I find that is how the wedding planning process sort of goes. Long spurts of nothing and then its like BAM all these things at once.

    I love the shoes! And your mum looks AWESOME.

    It's so nice when things start coming together and items are getting checked off the 'To-Do' list.

    Have so much fun trying on dresses!
