This forum is for basic wedding planning questions, tips and ideas.http://baton-rouge-lafayette.perfectweddingguide.comgeneral-wedding-planningI ordered a dress from LandyBridal online. They ASSURED me that it would be a very close replica and even sent swatch samples of the material. I got my dress, it is horribly wrong. The appliques are stiched by two threads on each side and they look cheap. They stated it would be fully lined and boned. There is NO tulle under the dress and boned... well I got a three inch bone on each side of the dress. If you are planning on getting a "replica" dress don't get it from Landy. They won't even return my e-mails!http://baton-rouge-lafayette.perfectweddingguide.com/bridal-board/general-wedding-planning/wedding-dress-chinese-replica/If you registered at the celebrity china and cookware booth at a recent bridal show BEWARE! Soon after attending the bridal show, my fiance and I were invited by Celebrity China to attend a small showing of their products. Their products are of good quality. However, when you go to sign the purchasing contract please be careful! We were told that the payment plan was based on a 1.5% interest rate when in actuality it was 18%! Also, the trips that are offered have many stipulations that are not fully disclosed. I would not want this to happen to anyone else so just be careful! We already have enough stress trying to plan a wedding! We don't want you to have to deal with this too!http://baton-rouge-lafayette.perfectweddingguide.com/bridal-board/general-wedding-planning/china/i having trouble picking out the colors for the wedding, I am a Jan bride...we both like navy...but what color to put with navy thats not sliver or ivory...i also like brown....but again what other color do I pair with brownhttp://baton-rouge-lafayette.perfectweddingguide.com/bridal-board/general-wedding-planning/wedding-colors/I have been reading a lot about how to save money by having an Off season wedding.
