    Sounds beautiful so far maybesbabies...This dress your sister posted a link to seems like you to me

    only instead of all white the sage green and ivory....

    You remind me of a wood nymph for some reason...so the colors and willow branches all seem very right..

    To marry the person you have set your heart upon
    is a joy unparalleled in human life.
    (Name), take this ring as a sign of my faith
    and my commitment to our love,
    and share this joy with me today.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    I used to be afraid of falling in love, of giving my heart away.
    How could I trust a (man/woman) to love me,
    to give to me all that I wanted to give to (him/her)?
    (Name), when I met you, I realized how much we could share together.
    You have renewed my life:
    Today I join that life with yours.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Two flames, one light.
    (Name), I offer you this ring as a sign of life,
    and myself as your (husband/wife).
    Let us walk together always,
    and let us always walk towards the light.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    I came to this place today as a (man/woman) standing along;
    I will walk from it by your side.
    Today I cross the threshold with you
    and enter into a new and lasting lifetime commitment.
    (Name), I commit myself to you as your (husband/wife).

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Today, a day of music and celebration,
    I pledge to share my life with you.
    Whether the days that come are happy or sad,
    I will live them with you.
    (Name), I give myself to you as your (husband/wife).


    Love has given us wings, and our journey begins today,
    (Name), wherever the wind may carry me,
    I will stay by your side as your (husband/wife),
    Take this ring as a sign of my love.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Where there has been cold,
    you have brought warmth;
    where my life was dark,
    you have brought light.
    (Name), I pledge before this assembled company
    to be your (husband/wife) from this day forward.
    Let us make of our two lives, one life,
    and let us always honor and respect each other.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    (Name), our miracle lies in the path we have chosen together.
    I enter this marriage with you knowing that the true magic of love
    is not to avoid changes, but to navigate them successfully.
    Let us commit to the miracle of making each day work - together.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Whatever lies ahead, good or bad, we will face together.
    Distance may test us for a time, and time may trie us.
    But if we look to each other first, we will always see a friend.
    (Name), look to me for all the days to come;
    today I take my place as your (husband/wife).

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    On this day, (month, day, year), I, (name), join myself to you (name),
    before this company.
    May our days be long, and may they be seasoned with love, understanding and respect.

    Just a few sis..

    Muwah..

    Mix it up and see what comes.

    Congrats on the upcoming wedding!!! I am so happy for you!!!

    May I suggest David's Bridal for finding a great wedding gown and not spending a fortune? Here is their website address:

    http://www.davidsbridal.com/findastore_listings.jsp?sx=1024&sy=768&co=true&divCode=DB&zip=98221&x=2&y=7

    And like someone else said: Remember it is YOUR wedding....plan it YOUR way and enjoy it!!!

    hugs,

    I have no suggestions really, I'm only here to say congrats to you. Part of me misses having a real wedding ceremony. Although getting married in Vegas was how I always knew it would be (and it WAS exciting), the little girl in me misses/missed having the whole she-bang with cake and bridesmaids etc.

    Have lots of fun planning! And good luck in your life together with Guy.

    That cake is gorgeous.

    I second the David's Bridal suggestion. A young friend got hers for $100, and it was gorgeous. They had it marked at $250, but it needed cleaning, so she talked them into lowering the price for her. They got married on a beach in Florida, then went on a honeymoon cruise. It wasn't all that great though..............she said the cruise was all senior citizens except them. There is a David's Bridal by Linens and Things in Lynnwood.

    Lynndale Park has some nice, woodsy areas, and you can rent the covered areas for a reception too. I should say reserve, because it didn't cost us anything to reserve them for congregation picnics. Edmonds park has been used for weddings too.

    Edmonds park has been used for weddings too.

    It sad, seeing that I live in Edmonds, that I've never been to Edmonds park!!! My soon to be s-i-l suggested that as well. We're thinking of a back yard wedding at her house, so we could hold the reception there as well, but the guest list has turned out being a might bigger than I thought it would! Thanks for the suggestions, I'll have to have my honey take me to Davids Bridal, it sounds like the best deal around! I could modify something from there.

    Thanks for the compliments, Xena, you are so sweet!!! I would love to have a dress like that!!!

    Thanks Xan, for posting all the info, gives me lots of good ideas! Love you!!!
