I am still trying to think of ideas to help J pick gifts for his groomsmen.  I'm not worried about it him not finding something, I just know that most of them are married, they have all been in each other's weddings and they are all traveling a pretty long distance to be a part of our wedding day, and I want their gifts to be something cool!

I need some expert advice...

What are some of the coolest groomsmen gifts you've seen?  Do you think a different gift for each guy, or the same for all of them is best?

Within the next few months, J and I are going to start registering for "stuff".  I have read that you should register for 2-3 items PER GUEST... that's probably not going to happen for us since we are inviting almost 400 people to the wedding.  I don't think there are that many things that we need or want!

I need some expert advice...

Where did you register?  Was there anything you wish you would have registered for and didn't?  Is there anything you registered for that you have never used?

I have a couple of things planned for gifts for my bridesmaids, but I need something more.  I am at a complete loss because I don't have a lot of money left in my gift budget and I want to make sure that the gifts work for everyone (i.e. no alcohol).  I need one more idea that I can do for less than $15.

I'm ready for some expert advice...

What else can I buy/make for my bridesmaids?  What's the best bridesmaid gift you've ever received?  Where's the best place to find good bridesmaids gifts?

I'm trying to decide what it is that my flower girl should carry with her and what kind of accessories she should have.  It's been hard for me to decide whether I want her to have flower petals that she drops, or carry something.  If she carries something, what should it be?

I'm going to let her help me pick her dress... I'll give her a few options and let her pick her favorite.  I'm pretty sure we are looking for something that's ivory, purple or lime green (with the other colors as accents).  So now I have to decide what kind of accessories to give her.  A flower headband?  A flower crown?  A pretty little pearl necklace?

Let's ask the experts...

What are the cutest flower girl outfits/accessories you've seen?  What have you seen flower girls carry down the aisle?  Any unique ideas that you've just loved???

Now that I know I have some people reading my blog, I'm ready to take advantage of the vast knowledge that is my readership and ask you for your advice and suggestions... ENTER... Feedback Friday.

Every Friday, I'll post a topic and I'd LOVE LOVE LOVE to get your thoughts, experiences, and whatever else you'd like to offer me  :-D

Without DELAY... here's today's topic!!!

CAKE


So, we know that rather than doing a huge "show" cake for our 300+ guests, we want to do a small cake for the ceremonial stuff and then do sheet cakes to serve.  I hate the taste and texture of fondant (it makes me feel like I'm eating plastic) so the sheet cakes will give us the chance to use regular frosting.

THE QUESTION... how many flavor options should we offer and what should they be(for a summer wedding)?  What are the best cake and icing flavor combinations you've had at weddings?


Happy weekend!!!
