I think September will be too close to the wedding for me to have any WDW fundage but thanks for the offer! maybe in years to come if you continue to go down! My sister (my maid of honor) and rob's sister (one of my bridesmaids) and I are going to go tomorrow actually to see Bride Wars! I will let you know how it is!!

And I just wanted to add that me and Rob picked our wedding song last night!!!!!!

Elvis Presley's "Love Me Tender" ;-)

[scdisneyfan]

the song! nice choice!
look at your miles ticker!! 149 miles! nice job

[amandal]

Well that's a great song choice, but I thought for sure it would have been a song from a Disney soundtrack . . . . .

[karyntay07]

Great song! I'm going to see Bride Wars tomorrow too! Can't wait to hear more!

[Kenny]

Can't go wrong with a classic like "Love me tender"!

[karyntay07]

So I was just looking through your information again, specifically looking for your photographer info and your pricing is just what I've been finding. I can't get over how much photographers cost! I'm sure your photographer has wonderful pictures, but WOW! I contacted someone the other day who is booked for our date already and it's a year and a half away! Another person, and I LOVE LOVE LOVE his work, is talking with another client who is trying to book him on our date as well - but I don't have enough for the deposit at the moment, so we've been holding off (although I have to admit a part of me worries that it's all a game and the other client doesn't really exist). Anyway, I just wanted to double check that I'm not crazy and that the pricing really is that high! My father can't get over it. Oiy vey!

I know! and I actually have more miles to add but the ticker update page is saved on my laptop which I have been angry at.... lol (its getting old and the touchpad doesnt always work so i am usually found hitting the touch pad with all the might of my pointer finger...lol). thanks by the way!

We definately have the whole fairy tale undertone going on but i just wanted it to be subtle so it didnt seem childish or too themed. plus i worship elvis aaron presley. lol.

I KNOW!!!!!!!!!!! I was blown away by the photographer! Our guy wanted $300 for a deposit and my dad lent it to me (I am still hoping to not have to pay him back... lol) but NOW we are thinking about trying to add the rights to our pictures so it would go up... but not substantially since we wouldnt then have to pay for thank you cards, ya know? idunno. I understand that its something you have to really REALLY find someone whose worth the money and all but I can honestly say I have not saved $1 towards our photog yet and I only have like 6months to go! theres gonna be a lot of pb&j this summer! lol!

[skateycat]

my, things seem to have changed since a certain someone hear got photographers and such. what are you talking about when you say buying the rights to your photos???? anyway, you are such the busy bee, girlfriend! you sound so happy, i can just see you through my little computer here!

LOL! thanks! buying the rights to my photos would be essentially buying the right to make them all MINE not belonging to the photog. So he would give me everything we agreed to in our package (albums, pictures, etc) plus CDs with the files of ALL of our pictures on them that I can have, put on my computer and reprint forever for free because they would belong to me now.

[skateycat]

gee, they got all the angles now, don't they? calling it the rights to your photos...means extra chips for them, doesn't it???? i know you will get it all sorted out. gee, i feel like i am right there with ya, shopping and everything...like um er and auntie!

[mcc0313]

Glad that you had a great holiday and New Year Mel....(loved Liam in his new sweatshirt and Mickey ears ) Glad that the rebates and free groceries have been helping towards the wedding savings. You really have got a great deal done, and I am sure that the rest will go smoothly as well. Love the idea of Elvis for your wedding song.....(see it might not be totally Disney but when it is playing you can just picture Stitch in his Elvis costume....)

Anyway....looking forward to hearing more...

[Gembley]

photographers can be expensive things (or they are in the UK) when we got married just over a year ago it cost us £1300 (about $2200) for the day, the evening, the rights to the photos and a book. and that was a cheaper photographer.

i hope your planning is continuing to go well

im glad that bride wars was good. I cant wait to see it but it doesn't come out here for another week.

[MaryEL8775]

We got married 7 yrs almost 8 now ago. And we had to pay over $1100 for our Photog. All we ordered was the proofs. Then about 3 yrs ago, the photog called me and asked me if we wanted to purchase our negatives for close to $400 because he was going to destroy them due to not having enough storage space for them. So we ended up buying them and now we can make our own photos forever. But I tell you some of them things are like highway robbery taking place. As it is I must have checked with 30 different caterers when I was planning my wedding. But I ended up picking 1 that was 1 town away from the reception site and they also made my cake so that was 1 stop shopping. It was great.
