Dresses Ordered September 30th or Later:The Plan

This will be the back-up dress to the other dress that was ordered by three bridesmaids. The dress that I picked from Demetrios can not arrive in time if it is ordered today or later. So moving forward with an additional dress that will be on the scene in new Orleans-The base price is $135.oo but ordering it today (09/30) also includes a $20.00 rush fee. The dress is from David's Bridal. Style # F12284 and the Color is CLOVER. (See photo provided)

The Shoes can be purchased at Payless for $24.99 (see photo provided) . It is the Unforgettable Moments Collection by Lela Rose. The name of the shoe is the Jackie Dress Sandal. The great thing is that it's a 3.5 inch heel. Not too bad for the ladies that don't love stilletos, like me. Please order this dress as soon as possible, as time is ticking away-we only have 17 days until the wedding. Please call me at (985) 789-4120 with any questions that you may have.

Love-Neisha

Bridesmaid Dresses Update

I appreciate the patience that all the girls have that are standing up. I have been following up with the bridal salon every week to get a confirmed delivery date of the dresses, seeing that we are about three weeks from the wedding date. I leave on October 10th, headed to new Orleans for the wedding...so I am praying that they arrive as soon as possible.

The phone number is (847) 605.0015-please ask to speak with Mandy, since she knows most about the order.

I will be in touch as soon as I hear something. If anyone needs me to pick up their dress, I can do that as well, since I am often already in Schaumburg.

Thanks-Neisha

27 Days to Wedded Bliss

I can't believe that we are just four weeks shy of being married! Just under four weeks away to be Mrs. McElveen. I have never been more excited!!! From the moment that I met Tracy, its never been a dull moment, and for those that know him-surely you know what I mean. It's been great over the past almost three years, this coming January 2010. I am just glad to say that we will be going into year three as a married couple. I can't wait to be surrounded by family, loving friends, and even some people that I will be meeting for the first time to share our special day. Love is an honest miracle, and I pray that Christ the Lord continues to show me how to love the way that He has destined me to.
