Bridesmaid Shopping Day

We had our first official Bridesmaid’s shopping day to look for dress styles & colours we liked. As the studio we were going to was an hours drive away I made up shopping bags for the girls with the necessities we would need for our road trip.



First was our style card, especially as one of the girls is overseas and couldn’t join us, I wanted to keep all our measurements and choices together so we could refer to them later.





And what trip would be complete without champers!

Wedding Guests ~ USA Trip Planning


While we only have a small number of family & friends joining us in the US for our Disney wedding, each family wants to do and see different things and make the most of the trip.

Getting a happy median for all is important as it’s a big trip for each of them and it’s so important to us that they have a lovely time and get to see and do as much as they wish in the time they can spend away.

We look to have agreed on an initial itinerary where everyone will....
 
fly into Las Vegas & spend a week before travelling
 


to Walt Disney World and staying a week



then departing on the Cruise




Most have decided to head back to Australia on returning from the Cruise but one group may stay in WDW a little longer.

Now that we have a basic plan we need to narrow down flights and accommodation options for all, as well as day trips & sightseeing. Knowing the airline preference each group has will determine the airfares and we have an agreed budget for accommodation, which makes it easy for me to select a few options and then the group can decide.

We have given everyone lots of information on the sights & things to do in each of the three stops and once everyone gets back to us with some selections we can begin to make the bookings.

Popcorn Bar … now with a little candy & cookies too ♥

Our popcorn (and now candy & cookie) bar is beginning to take shape!

Luckily I love vases and have quite a few we can use, and thus far (apart from the two I bought for our engagement party - the big ones at the far back) I haven’t had to purchase any :)



So this is what I have at the moment and I probably would have stayed with configuration, if not for a few candy & cookie items I have found and now have to include.

First up, while on Mindy Weiss’s blog last week I saw …… new Disney Fairies, Princess & Princess wedding M&M’s. I love the personalised ones with your photo on them and was thinking of getting some of these for our home reception. But now I think I have to get the Princess & Princess wedding ones instead


#2 our cake maker offered to make blue bird cookies to match our cake – I don’t have a picture but this is similar, hopefully ours will look more like Disney Bluebirds


 
#3 Lollipops - can't go past some princess swirl and Mickey face lollipops


#4 Mickey ears pretzels – we love these, they are amazing!!!!! They remind me of our trips to Anaheim so we can’t go past these.


But now I am stuck how many jars/vases is too many? How many more (if any) I should get, and what size or shape to make them? Should I separate the popcorn/candy or just mix the vases in together?
