toby you looked so beautiful and happy! Juan Carlos is awesome - great pics and Congrats again!!!

congrats girls - you both are so great!!!

funny heidi b/c i called a videographer today. i really just want someone with a good eye to take the raw footage of our ceremony and the cocktail hour and then give it to us to edit and cut but i am not sure how likely that is. also the island i am getting married on is so small there is only ONE videographer available - yes that is who i left a message for - i could always fly someone from another hawaiian island but the $$$ starts piling up so we will see his qualifications. as for a friend or family member i don't want to impose and i want all of my guests to enjoy everything and not have 'jobs'

erica i love the jim helm dress - i just may have to copy you!!! have you gotten a price on it anywhere?

lizzy when you are copying the code from photobucket use the IMG code - and when you paste it don't backspace or erase or change any of the code. try it with 1 photo and i'll see if i can help you

good luck - sounds like a great trip!

thanks girl! i love this - i am going to figure out some way to use this...

No thanks :-) prim and prixie are great to work with even if they are a bit slow getting back to you to start - just hang in there! as for pricing you are going to have to wait to hear from them - there are SO many variables, # of invites, type of paper, envelope printing, turn around time, etc that factor into your quote! good luck

which place are you ordering from? i was going to order them and have them shipped directly to the hotel over the summer - i never thought about ordering extras hhhmmm

Thanks everyone!!!

crystal i am sorry for your loss i will definitely saw a prayer for you and your family during this time.

i was all upset and then saw you found a copy! whhewww ok good

omg i definitley wouldn't b/c they are probably that cotton canvas material and you would have to psycho iron them to get them flat again!

this is so cute! i would caution international brides though b/c food is a big issue at customs - mexico and D.R.!

savannah is one of my favorite cities as well - it is so quaint and romantic and there are parks every 2 to 3 blocks - so beautiful! FI and i spent our first VDay there and it was our first trip away - i have so many great memories of it!

Mrs. B. - that is terrible to hear! I can't believe they were rude to you. I didn't talk to any of the coordinators before going, but they were all super friendly while I was there. yeah jill it was a nightmare - i even talked to a couple other brides who had recently been married there (one in the same city as me) and all 3 of them said the same thing - that dealing with them was hell until the second they got there - FI and I just didn't want that kind of stress for planning a DW

i am going to go look at the pics right now! i also have to say as a word of warning to future brides. Caneel Bay was our first choice location, it is expensive but from everything i've seen it looks like it is worth it but the wedding coordinator and sales department are the most unprofessional people i have ever dealt with. it was horrible, so horrible that FI and I scratched our plans and started over!

very cute!!!!

wow glenda you are amazing!!! that is great info
