Hi Ladies,
Every since I've envisioned myself being married, I've always wanted a Fairytale theme....kind of a way of symbolizing that dreams do come true when you have the right one. Anyway, my anticipated wedding plans have been mapped out and sealed for a long time and I've just begun to pull them out to make revisions if needed. One of the things I've been going back & forth about is I have a step team @ church and because they are so dear to be have always wanted them to escort me in. I also want to have a recording of me to my sweetie before I walk in. The layout for that is 30 seconds of the song "Special Gift" (Donnie McClurkin). It fades out & then I tell him what he means to me (which is basically prelude to our vows since were saying our own & as you see i'm long winded & have so much to say. Anyway, I don't want a ceremony that's too long & drawn out but I also wanted a memorable ceremony. I was just wondering if them escorting me in & recording would be too much???
Oh & I failed to mention that after the seating of the grandparents, parents, & honorary attendants, there will be a dance interpretation to "I Dedicate My Life" by Vickie Winans.
PS
The lyrics to the 30 secs of the song are
"Heaven, sent me a wonderful, very special, beautiful gift.
Heaven sent me a very wonderful, supernatural, special friend."
I have my ceremony layout & the reading already if you would like for me to post it so you can see what I mean.

I don't think it's too much and actually think it'll be beautiful. Please post the ceremony layout and reading - I would love to see it. Also, how long will the dance interpretation be?
That sounds very lovely. Will you have a cinderella style dress and ride in on a horse and carriage?

This IS VERY beautiful!!!! Please be sure to post pics after your godmother has finsihed!!
I too want to someday have a fairytale wedding. I don't think it is too much. I can guarantee you it will be a wedding to remember. I am in love with your dress. As matter of fact I admire all you ladies with the strapless dresses. Don't think I have enough to hold one up.

Girl, you you do. After it's altered, it will fit you perfectly. Go try one on, you'll see! :-)
Sheawill, pp is right. I'm little up top and wearing a strapless gown, I plan to have cups sewn in to give me a boost. Go try some on, most places allow you to use their bras to get the full effect.

THANKS! I will see how the outcome goes. I think I am to clumsy though I may step on the front and then that will be really bad. Or I get the feeling I will walk around all day pulling it up even if I don't need to.You get what I am saying.
