If this was a contest, I think I'd win the first place. My fiance and I are together since HS so that is about 12yrs, finally taking the plunge after 4yrs of being engaged.

Congratulations, Maggie S. dress looked great on you. It's nice that you are adding that detail on it to make it's unique and making it your own.

Dress #2 is stunning. But it's whatever You feel most fabulous in.

I stayed at the Palace over Labor day weekend with my FI and loved it! It is a very pretty resort.

Congratulations and welcome to the forum. I saw pictures of the new resort and looks beautiful. You must be excited that they are opening next month.

I agree it is such a great story. Like something you would watch on the wedding channel. Congratulations and

Congratulations and I was totally new at the forum thing as well. I don't even have a facebook but I felt compelled to be a member and value everything this forum has to offer.

Congratulations and welcome. As I was looking at destinations I was also thinking the same thing. I feel that Mexico has many things to offer while being reasonable for my family and friends. I also looked at DR and Jamaica as possible locations since they have a vast amount of all inclusive resorts as well. Good luck on your seach and happy planning.

Great job and thanks for posting giving other brides to be inspiration to be creative!

My FI and I are the same height. I have a dilemna because I love wearing heels! I feel like I look more slimmer. lol! He doesn't have a problem but I rather look short and stocky than be taller in pictures.

I think a long table option would work out well. You and your husband can sit in the middle so you can have full view and interact with everyone. This way everyone could interact with eachother. I feel it would be more intimate and engaging having everyone together.

I just went to a wedding that did this and didn't know it was a cultural tradition. I was very entertaining to see where people placed them.

I agree with the other say get the dress you love. Have you triend looking if I could find the dress online? I found that it's a great bargaining tool if you want to see if the wedding dress shop could do it for less or at least match it.

Congratulations and how wonderful another Dreams bride to be! Happy planning

wow, your wedding day is right around the corner! congratulations!
