Congrats Lisa and everyone else on their losses this week!

This sounds SO YUMMY! I'm going to have to save it to make soon!

The one near us has been liquidating for about 6 weeks now, I went tonight because I knew the discounts were up to about 50-60% off, and they were completely closed I thought I might be able to hit it one last time, but they're all done. There is another one that I'm near often that just started liquidating, so I'm hoping to hit that one once the sales get up there.

I watched it too, it was so sweet, what a nice husband

Thing is, most of our guests dont know we are already legally married. I still want to do the ceremony we wrote. I want the ceremony in Mexico to have every element of being the legal one minus the blood tests and all. Can anyone lend some insight? Thanks so much! We wrote our own ceremony, whether you write it or they use their standard ceremony, it will still seem "real" to your guests, there really isn't a difference. They even still have you sign a certificate and have 4 witnesses sign as well. No one would have known the difference at ours if we didn't tell them.

Congratulations!! You must be so happy about that! Congratulations Morgan on being the biggest loser this week! Julie, your little girl is so precious!

I'm in Mass, but just over the border, near stafford springs & union

Awww, Jenn, Buddy is SO cute! Congratulations on the silver, lol!

He used the song I walked down the aisle to, the song we walked out to, and then a random song. Had I known that he was going to use music I would have asked him to use our wedding song instead of the random song, but no big deal, it still turned out far better then I had hoped, so we were really happy with it. I actually had completely forgotten about the video until half way through the ceremony when I noticed him, lol! You could probably just write down the songs you wanted used and then give them to him before he leaves, I'm sure he could use whatever you wanted, as long as he has the song.

Thanks Ladies! And congratulations to everyone on their losses this week!

Hey Ladies! Thought I'd just post answers to some of your questions. When I wanted to substitute something for the photographer, what I did was figure out what I needed that wasn't included in the package and then I put a list together of what I thought was comparable and emailed her. So I think I asked for a larger cake, chair bows, & gazebo decor? If I remember correctly. She let me have the gazebo decor and the larger cake, but no chair bows. I don't know if it was really an even trade, but at least I got the additional things I needed without paying extra for them. And as someone mentioned, there is no day pass fee for claudia rodriguez or her associates. Oh, and the video, I really didn't care about having a video at all, and only took it because it came with the package, but honestly the video was so much better than I ever anticipated. He did a great job with it, I believe it is claudia rodriguez's husband that does the videos at dreams, Michael Cantrell (I think that's his name, I'm just going off of memory right now!) I know I had more I wanted to say, but I think I'll have to go back and look at the posts, feel free to let me know if anyone has any questions!

Cheers to many more!!! I know isn't it crazy! When I saw Mel's anniversary come up, I knew you & I were coming next! It just went by so quickly...

Congratulations Erica!! You looked absolutely beautiful!! Can't wait to see your pics from Juan!

Thank you everyone! We were supposed to go to dinner tonight but it's game 7 for the Sox tonight, so we decided to go to brunch this morning instead. We had a nice day together. All week I've been thinking, last year at this time we were in mexico!

hazel, just an idea for you, if your guests decide to stay elsewhere, I think it's a comfort suites that is next door to atlantis, and if you stay there you have full access to the whole atlantis resort and all of the activities, etc... that might be an idea for your guests on a budget. I stayed at atlantis two years ago, its beautiful, but can be pricey.

Second-- did/are any of you getting 'travel health insurance' if your plan doesn't cover interatnional travel? we had to add international service onto our phones, which I think was 4.95 per month and then so much per minute. I'm glad we did it because it was nice to be able to call home after everyone left, because our daughter was at home too, so we wanted to check in on her. We have AT&T and it worked great.

Have fun Jennifer!! I wish I was going with you!

ours has been doing the clearance sales for about a month now, I was wondering if it was all of them or just some.

Shelley, I love it!! It's really cute! Okay, so I know when I haven't been around much when I have no idea who "lynn" is that made this for you. What's her BDW name?

Great, thanks for the tip!

okay good, thank you for clarifying that for me!

Yes, I did notice that some of them had restrictions, but I think it's a great deal Oh, and if anyone is interested the coupon code I got was EIGHTY, it's 80% off Our anniversary is this weekend and we were planning on an expensive dinner, so I figured this would help! Does anyone know if I buy 2 - $25 gc, can I use both? I know the restaurant I want says can't be used for liquor or tip, but I know we'll have at least $50 worth of food.

I used badge holders, bought them at walmart. I think they were 10 for $3, maybe? I used ribbon to make the loops. they also sell the badge holders at staples, but I think they were a little more expensive.

I got an email today for 80% off their already low prices. so I can get a $25 gc for $2!! I just wanted to know if anyone else had ordered from them and if it was legit?
