Whats New, Exciting or Different?!

Kelsie, on December 12, 2019 at 15:32 Posted in Plan a wedding 0 34

Hello WeddingWire!

I'm sitting at work, realizing I'm in a bit of a planning lull right now - everything is done minus invitations for the wedding (we're designing them on our Christmas holidays) and rings (which we're more than happy to put off til next spring). I'm slowly working on my bridal shower right now (got those invites coming in from Zazzle I'm pretty stoked for!) but other than that I'm a boring bride right now LOL.

Where is everyone else at in their planning right now? Is there anything new, exciting or different? Have you booked a new vendor recently? Changed something about your wedding? Anything exciting - did you find THE dress?!

For those who tied the knot - what's going on with you?! Do you have anything new, exciting or different on the horizons? A new house? A honeymoon upcoming?

What's everyone up to?!

    I'm just so Type A - I always need something to do - so I've been annoying my FH with new house listings and details regarding my bridal shower LOL. I need something!


    That's so exciting that you're growing your family! 2020 sounds like it'll be a very exciting time for you both!!

    Oh you are at such an exciting stage! Enjoy the down time, everything happens so fast!

    Currently we have been quite busy (Hence the absence from WW). We got back from our 2 week Honeymoon a couple weeks ago, since then things have been crazy! I bought a new vehicle, my Husband is about to start a new job and go away to school for training. I took on a new task at work that has me super busy, and we are now trying to grow our family!

    2020 will be crazy!

    The magnets seemed to be a hit! Although more expensive because they weigh more - still we really like them!


    You still have time to plan so I’m sure you’ll be bursting with ideas in no time!

    Ooh magnets that is a really smart idea!!!! And yes it feels so so real now.


    No ideas, I know I want lots of fall foliage to be featured on them but that’s as far as I’ve gotten haha.

    I can relate to the lull feeling! We booked a lot of things super early, so there was a lull until now where the million little decisions have to be solidified.

    Most exciting little detail this week was ordering the wedding bands! (picture below)

    Exciting! We designed our STD magnets last spring and sent them out last July and I remember being so excited cause it felt like the wedding was official lmao 😂


    We’re doing paper invites as well and designing them in the next few weeks.
    Do you have any ideas for your invitations?!

    Just mailed out our STD's and polished our wedding website. So it feels REALLY REAL now. Like people have the date set, and its happening. AH. Super exciting for me. And on that note, I had so much fun designing the STD's that we switched from email invites to paper invites so now going to design those!

    I thought about engraving but my fiance didn't want anything. Plus I was rushing to place the order before the sale ended, it was too much pressure to think of a meaningful engraving!

    I bought an Enso ring for my husband to wear while he works or golfs and he loves it! It looks great, and you would never know it's rubber. He liked it so much that I got him one in a different color to wear anytime he wants as well - and I had it engraved with our wedding date and a small mountain image (we were married in Canmore) - turned out sooooo great!

    I say give the postal service the benefit of the doubt only because December is a big mail month with Christmas! They will be worth the wait I'm sure.


    Definitely let me know! I'm really interested in them for travel.

    They have amazing reviews online. I'll have to let you know my own thoughts once they arrive.
    So far shipping has been slow. We ordered on the 29th and the tracking isn't showing updates since they left the states on the 9th.

    Those are really cool!! It's a really good idea for travelling, as well as the gym (although I admit... I haven't been to one of those in quite a while LOL).


    I'm actually going to look into these!!

    Whats New, Exciting or Different?! 3We got them from Enso. My fiance wants a silicone ring so he doesn't need to take it off to work. And they were such a good deal that I got one for travel and the gym. I'm still get a metal band for myself to match my engagement ring.

    We do the same every year. Family time with mine going for dim sim and at home relaxing. In laws, we have the whole family together and just enjoy the time together, eat, drink and gifts.

    OMG SO EXCITING! I was so happy when my dress came in - could not wait to see what it looked like in the correct size.


    Do you have a veil picked out, if you're having one? Any accessories chosen?

    Good for you!! I started my shopping in November and finished last week I think. I try to avoid shopping malls at all costs during the holidays!


    Are you doing anything special with your in laws for Christmas?

    I've been working so much during the holiday season that I feel like I haven't had time to do much!


    We bought rings online on Black Friday so I'm eagerly checking the tracking every day until we can try them on.
    I'm so excited for holiday days off. I want to sleep and immerse myself in Pinterest wedding boards.

    It is a 50/50 paint/water sometimes glycerin to soften. Then you let them dry on egg cartons. I have a few friends who are interested in trying them out. Love having crafty friends.

    I could paint by hand or I can dip them in a paint/water mixture. Not dumb question at all. I YouTubed how to do it before I bought them. I may do a little hand painting for the bigger ones for bouquets. Some I'll leave raw but may spray with glycerin and water to soften them since they are wood flowers.

    We got a 2020 Kia Sorento. Same make and model as what we had, but fancier trim.
