That looks awesome!

Amy...everything looked amazing....

 

How did you do the floating orchids? I mean..how did you string them up?

here is my brochure i'm sending out next week...

 

 

That's awesome! Too funny!

Hey..I'm sure there is info somewhere on this thread regarding this, but it is 50 pages long...and well...I'm exhausted. I'm working on my FI to finally lock down his deep sea fishing activities, but would like to provide him with a list of people to contact..possibly prices...so that he has NO CHOICE but to DO IT! Can someone point me in the right direction...or page??

Holy sh*t Yari...one month TODAY!

 

Here is my new list (the other looked too long with the extra info):

Print and Mail brochures

Write vows

Buy Makeup

Schedule Hair appt.

Print welcome pamphlet

Write welcome letters

Get rings

Finish glueing menu & seating cards

Parent Gifts?

Dress for shower

Jewelry

Shoes

Ceremony music

Questions (not sure if we are doing this now)

Shopping for ME!

Pick up dress

PACK!

 

Done:

Finished creating Welcome Pamphlet (would post but its on photoshop and I don't know how)

I will post pics as soon as my girls are recovered from their hangovers and have time to send me their pics...I didn't bring my camera due to fear of dropping it..losing it...falling on it!!!!

 

Okay..My TO DO LIST:

Print and Mail Prewedding brochure

print and cut seating place cards

buy shoes (flip flops from jcrew)

buy earrings

Schedule hair & make up appt. at Dreams (brooke have you done this?)

Get pics ready for my hair trial (9/16)

Make Welcome Letter for OOT bags

Iron on names for linen pouches for OOT bags (pouches for girls that will hold: camera, room key, id, money, lip gloss etc so they do not need to bring purse to beach or wherever)

Write my VOWS AHHHH

Get Rings (we are really behind)

Ceremony music

Dress for shower

get questions ready for guests(I'm doing a little thing in their OOT bags where each guest has 2 names of other guests they do not know yet, with specific questions for them to ask them...we want everyone to know each other since they are all so important to us!)

 

I know I have so much to do!!! I will get alot done since this will be the first weekend I won't have a party to attend in a month!! Oh yeah and my bro is FINALLY moving out!!!!!!

Oh my god.....we leave in less than a month (october 4th)....I can't believe how fast it is coming...

 

I didn't even consider music for while the guests are being seated...

 

I have not received anything from Landy..including something to fill out for a confirmation....huh? anyone else?

I had my Bach. party this past weekend....I had a ton of fun...even though all the girls ignored my ... NO PENIS....NO VEIL rule...but still it was a great time!

 

I feel like I have SOOO much stuff to do still...ugh!

My pug is Rosie. She is my daughter and the love of my life. Both FI and I are head over heels for her and she does as she pleases.

Her hobbies include eating anything (food, chocolate, plastic, stucco, her own poop..gross I know!), sleeping, barking at animals on TV, and being an oscar winning actress in our house!!

 

 

I LOOOOOOVE sweets...but recently been wanting just like Trader Joe's Soy and Flaxseed (spicy) chips with hummus, or just...CARBS!

 

I do have a little secret though if your interested. My trainer recommended I start drinking protein shakes to make sure I get enough protein since I should be eating 5 meals a day...now this is for anyone doing any type of working out/ strength training.....

I picked up these Myoplex Lite protein shake mixes (i've always done strawberry...)but I found a chocolate medley one...They have a MINT CHOCOLATE one that is to DIE for...it's 180 calories but like no sugar no real fat but 22 grams of protein..AND it has little mini choco. mint chips in it..I swear! I drink them sometimes after dinner to feed the cravings!

It FEELS like years ago..I can't believe we leave in like 5 WEEKS! AHHH! We haven't even ordered our rings yet..I know..I know that's horrible!

Thanks so much for all of your comments..I am so excited! And YES my personal trainer has been kicking my ass...good thing she's so nice and I like her or else I would just bail out!
Thanks again!

PS...since I bought the dress back in Philly, (no one carried it out here in PHX) I had to go to a local tailor. The dress fit me perfectly except for hemming and cups added..I had to pay $230 up front. First I think that's really expensive....second, is it normal to pay BEFORE they even do the alterations? what if they mess up??

Soooo cute..thinking of adding these to our OOT bags last minute..I love the idea! Thanks!

okay..so don't mind my awful hair or the ghetto place but they are supposed to be amazing! wish i could do a side by side comparison from when I first tried it on last february to see if my personal trainer is paying off or not! lol...i hope these don't come out huge...still don't know how to size right!

 

 

 

 

 

 

Beautiful pics!!!!! You look so gorgeous and your guests look liked they had a great time!

 

I love the BM bags by the way! I felt like I was there!!

OH my goodness...Can't wait to hear all about it and see pics! I'm sure it was PERFECT!

For our site visit we stayed in the delux ocean view room hacienda...umm i don't know what section...it was over on the side past El Patio

 

I wasn't stoked about the room, but it was decent. My beef was the lighting (i had a hard time putting on makeup) and the shower kind of felt like a trampoline. I was bouncing everytime I took a step. We spent like NO time in my rooms though.

 

I was told by Tammy the resort works really well with wedding guests and based on availability will upgrade your entire party once you arrive. I'm praying for that, but so far I know of like 4 brides that week... so I guess we'll see!

Let me tell ya...it's like being on the surface of the sun here until mid to late October! yup.....last year I was still in shorts and tank tops sweating at halloween....uh huh!

 

I'm not sure exactly where your hotel is...things to do...hmmm...someplace air conditioned..if it was the cooler season I would def. recommend a hike, but seriously it will still be 110ish out here. Phoenix is def. known for it's shopping if your interested...there is fashion square and the biltmore. Oh yeah..and there is this place called LAST CHANCE that is basically Nordstroms discount...I've gotten lots of INCREDIBLE deals!

 

If your interested in restaurants let me know where your hotel is located!

Welcome!! Wish I could tell you more about St. Lucia other than that's where my dream wedding would be held..now I'm holding off for the honeymoon!

 

This Forum and these ladies are fantastic! You will get a ton of ideas and feedback!

Uzu is so good! I had that last time I was in the city with friends!

 

My dinner has just been upped to 12 Hershey Kisses since FI was supposed to be home and HOUR ago! He's working hard but still...a lady's gotta eat! So now I'm sliding into my first glass of wine for the evening!!!

 

Wouldn't it be fun if we could ALL meet up for drinks sometime?? We should plan a thread one night when all of us are just drinking at our comps and writing to each other!!!

Yaaaaay!!!! I'm so happy for Christine! I can't believe it's been 9months since she's announced she was preggo!

 

Can't wait for pics!!! Thanks for posting this ladies!

You look awesome in that dress!!! Hugs you perfectly and the dress alone is gorgeous! Congrats!
