Welcome fellow Chicagoan!

Xpedex should have some. I got my silver paper from them and they had a huge selection. Don't bother going online, they don't sell nor do they have any info but corporate. Hopefully you have one in your state.

Mine photographed Ivory, but was really diamond white or white I think. Keep in mind though, it really does depend on the type of fabric you choose, white in taffita vs. silk satin will look completely different. white in more man made fibers that are woven together with different fibers will be WHITE. You will never truly get a white white looking dress in natural fibers because of their nature. In order to get a White white dress even the synthetic fibers sometimes need to be dyed white. So my bottom line is try to keep in mind what color you want your dress to look like in photos, an White silk satin natural fiber dress will photograph more ivory, vs. a white taffita dress will photograph white white. Hope this helps.

BEAUTIFUL!! Love the pictures. Your two looked so happy together!

Any tips/suggestions/links? I love Sol and Claudia's work - WOW! but I cant spend more then about $3000 ANYWAY Any lists of photographers out there for me to look at? Thanks in advance Eden I had the same issue, I LOVE SOL! But poo I couldn't afford her. Luckly! She has Vincent and Diego, who are associates who shot my wedding (more affordable). They are FANTASTIC photographers and FANTASTIC people. They should be more in your price range. Check out my slideshow if you want: del Sol Photography associate photographer Vincent Guihard

I do it all the time. The only thing is the shipping costs but it can't be that much.

I was running around in my heels in the sand. Vincent took a picture of it. It really wasn't that difficult because I kept my heels off of the sand and walked on the front of my feet.

I had a cathederal style veil with a blusher, they where two peices attached on one comb (the blusher) and then the cathederal was attached to the blusher with velcrow on the top. I had it pinned semi high on my head but if you want it lower they can attached it lower with some bobby pins. to make sure I would ask your stylist.

I found a place that has starfish hairpins and alot of others that are great IMO. Hair Comes the Bride- Starfish Hairpin

Homa Bridal - Boutiques2 Accessories erincole.com Maria Elena Headpices - GREAT

Royal Hideaway Playacar!! I'm sooooo super excited

Thanks! And Good Luck as well!!

$1800 for a platinum ring, 7mm thick.

YIPEEEEEE!!!! Vincent is my Photographer!! Can't wait!! Oh wait a second, yes I can I still have sooooooo much to do!

we're having a trio. 45 minutes for $650... OUCH!

I love it!! You look so beautiful in it! I agree, take off those bows. I love that dress! I would totally buy it for myself If I saw it... hmmmm.. no just kidding! Mines being made, its mermaid style too, a bit similar to yours.

How awesome is that!! I wish I had more guests at my wedding so I could hire a band!!

Mines on a Thursday. For those ppl traveling shorter time, they fly in on a Wens., Thurs wedding, Friday recouporate, Sat fly out. But most ppl are staying for the entire week. I would see what your flights are like and when do most of them fly out to Mexico, the more flights the better in terms of pricing.

I am so sorry for your loss. my thoughts and prayers are with you and Reggie.

Its really not that bad. We had to go through this, and I can honestly say it was one of the most easiest things I had to do for the wedding so far. Just meet with your priest and its bascially his job to get you all prepared.

Self, Take some time out for yourself! Seriously!! You need to take a bubble bath, get your nails done, SOMETHING. Your looking and feeling shlumpy.

I just bought 24!! I'm going to put them on every other seat. The guys wouldn't use them. Thanks!
