  1. Oh my gosh, you guys are SO PRECIOUS!! I thought that when I saw your video teaser too...it's so obvious how much in love you are. I love that you got a ride in a golf cart down to the beach! And I'm sure this has already been said - but you looked so hot in that dress girl!! Nice~!
  2. Awww, Anny, you looked so beautiful! Love the dress, love the tiara (is that the one you got for $0.99??) - really awesome! I can't believe you are married & done with everything...man, we are all dropping like flies around here! LOL.
  3. My husband probably thinks I'm nuts, but he has his own things that I just roll my eyes at too. He did say, after our wedding, how he couldn't believe how amazing everything turned out...I totally credited this forum. I do have to preface everything I say about you guys with "one of my wedding friends..." I did (and do) come up with a lot of interesting info that I share with him - he's thinks we are like a chick think tank.
  4. Congrats Anny!!! I'm going to hunt for the pics now...
  5. Myra - really, really beautiful! Your photog did an amazing job. I loved your dress, your colors, all the little details...and definitely your flowers! I think the stormy sky looked so dramatic - and the clear blue ocean just popped. Congrats!
  6. I think it's a beautiful gown for sure! Good find - and you look super stoked!
  7. Yes, definitely congrats Sarah!! I can't wait to see how it all turns out. You were my secret santa last year - holy wow! And you are such a sweetie, and worked so hard - I can't wait to see how beautiful you look. CHEERS!
  8. YAY Sarah! So pretty you are...you must feel like it's Christmas to have all your pics in hand. Hmmm, I wonder how long till you make your book? LOL.
  9. Diana - most of my guests that didn't stay at the hotel booked condo's in the surrounding area - Coral Baja, Mikonos come to mind. I used ..VRBO® is Vacation Rentals by Owner® Vacation Homes Rentals by Owner as a resource for condo rentals.
  10. Beautiful! What a special way to make it legal. Good for you guys! Congrats
  11. Hey Martha, sorry so late on responding! Yes, the most important tests regarding thyroid function are TSH, free T3 and free T4...my TSH is high and my FT3 & FT4 are low in relation. The supplement I'm taking is called Metabolic Complex from MBi Nutraceutical. I got it from my Naturopath (long story, but working with her in conjunction w/my general doctor). It contains B vitamins, Kelp, and bovine thyroid, adrenal, spleen, thymus & pituitary tissue. I am also taking Adrenal Complex from the same manufacturer. I just saw my general doctor today, and she agrees w/the naturopath about my thyroid levels & encouraged me to stick w/the Metabolic & Adrenal complexes for at 8 weeks & see what my levels look like at the next blood test. If not improved, she will prescribe me Armour. I understand that the reason Armour works for some people that don't have success w/synthetic thyroid meds is because some people just can't make t3, so taking the dessicated thyroid tissue gives you t3 and t4. Anyways, that's what I know.
  12. Hey Acacia - here's a link to my photos if you can't find the post Kodakgallery.com Sign in to Kodakgallery.com ...also got married at Cabo Surf & used Bradley. (Janet - remember when you were the only one that had gotten married there?!) We loved Bradley! So professional, fun, & just all around great.
  13. What did he give you? Synthroid? My thyroid is "underfunctioning", but not quite bad enough for an rx. I'm taking a Metabolic complex that is supposed to boost thyroid function - it has bovine thyroid tissue in it. If you don't have any luck w/Synthroid (if that's what he gave you), you may want to research Armour - it's prescription dessicated thyroid. I know, it sounds gross. But, I know a lot of ppl who have hypothyroidism & feel the best on Armour compared to Synthroid. Also, it's interesting that your cholesterol is low...most hypothyroid ppl have high cholesterol. Good luck!
  14. Ugh! My dress is still hanging in it's bag in our garage. I don't even want to know what it would cost to clean. I am tending to agree with Natasha on this one...the bit of grass stain & dirt on the bottom and a tiny red wine stain are great character. Plus, if I get it "preserved" then I'll feel bad about putting it on whenever I get the whim.
  15. Yep, you'll be totally fine. I carried my gigantic dress, a HUGE purse & a carry on size rolly bag. Purse doesn't count.
  16. Congrats Stephanie! All you gals are getting married so fast, it's like lightning around here! I can't wait to hear all about your day, I'm sure it was perfect.
  17. Oh my Martha, so sorry to hear about this. I do not have PCOS, but when I was younger I had a huge problem with ovarian cysts...they were the kind that fill with fluid & eventually decrease in size. It was extremely painful for a time and I had many trips to the emergency room because of it. Thats how I learned about cathiters & why I don't like them. Is there anything they can do for you? I now feel compelled to research this condition...but I'm sure you already have. What are your options?
  18. Hey Acacia, We got married a week before Tasha at the Cabo Surf & loved it. In case you haven't found our reviews, here are some links to my review & photos: http://bestdestinationwedding.com/fo...rf-review.html http://bestdestinationwedding.com/fo...cabo-surf.html And some of Tasha's pics: http://bestdestinationwedding.com/fo...ng-photos.html http://bestdestinationwedding.com/fo...slideshow.html Hope this helps inspire you! You will love your wedding at the Cabo Surf! I think our representative sampling here is a good one...I had a small wedding with only 20 guests, Janet was medium sized with 65-ish & Tasha had a HUGE ordeal with like 130 I think. And, we were all happy with what Cabo Surf did for us. Good luck!
  19. Good golly Miss Courtney - those are wonderful! I had no idea you were doing such intricate invites. I would feel like a very special person if I received that in the mail! Good job!
  20. Oh Amy, it looks like you guys had an amazing time! I love the photos!!! Kashif has an excellent perspective with light, color & movement - your pics are really special, different & vibrant. I especially love that they capture the emotion and mood - what fun!!
  21. Best wishes to you Nicole for a fantastic day! I am so excited for you! Savor every moment. HUGS!
  22. We got married at Cabo Surf, but only had a small party of approx 20. I was not able to negotiate much with such a small group. We did however have the site fee waived (I guess it applies if a min of 10 rooms aren't booked -we only had 3 booked). Also, I would say Armando was generous with us in terms of letting the bar run late and also not charging us for our wine (we ended up not having 4 of our guest show up, so I think it was a wash in terms of the meals not served). Anyway, I feel like we got a great deal for a beautiful wedding with great service. FYI, our deposit was $4k...and in the begining I balked at it...but when I went to pay our final bill & had a $800 credit to apply to our rooms & other charges I was a happy camper
  23. We only had 3 rooms rented out & we got the promo rate.
