Re: HELP

Ok Pebbles, how are you at DIYs? Seems to me, those are the solutions to your problem in order to save money. You can make your own pocketfolds for your invitations. I've created one for myself and would be more than happy to share it with you. It will reduce the cost considerably. How many guests are you estimating? I'm not sure where you will rent them in NJ, but you may want to go to chaircoversonline. They have great variety. What is the overall theme of your wedding? If I know that, I could make more suggestions to you. As far as programs are concerned, one of our vibride sisters have created a great Layered Wedding Program that she did for her wedding and we're all using it or have used it for our wedding and it's inexpensive to do (under $20 for the programs, or less even, depends on the number of guests you're having.)

As far as invitations are concerned, we're all doing our own because it's cheaper. You can do yours too. If you have Microsoft Publisher, I'll be more than happy to forward templates to you in creating your own.

If you're interesting in making your own pocketfolds for your invitations, send me your e-mail address and I'll be more than happy to share mine with you. If you want the DIY Layered Wedding Program, send your e-mail address, I'll share it with you as well.

PLS, let me know.

Re: HELP

Ok Pebbles, if you have microsoft office 2003 or better installed on your PC or Laptop, you also have Publisher. I will send those Templates to you and I'm pretty sure between you and your bridal party, you'll have those projects done in no time at all.

Re: HELP

pebbles, I tried sending them to you but it came back to me as undeliverable. Do you have an alternate e-mail address? pebble12@optonline.net did not work for some reason.

Re: HELP

I looked for tall focal points. I think you can rent tall, square or cylinder plastic or glass vases to fill with either pink water and petals or plain water and floating petals. I think Rosie sells the waterproof lights on this site that you can put in the vase to give off a nice glow.

Pebbles I just want to warn you about chair covers. Do not rent from uslinen.net. They will quote you the best price but they are crooks. They have over 33 complaints against them with the Better Business Bureau. I rented 300 chair covers from them back in march. Most of the chair covers were torn and very stained. They owe me money from my rental and we have yet to see it. They agreed they us $500 but told they were slow and would send our money back in may. We have not received it yet. I had to file a small claims suit against them. My goal is to warn everyone about them so that they don't get scammed.
