Vista print is the best! But like someone mentioned....you don't always get things ASAP! We actually ordered postcards, we didnt get them in 21 days, so we caled and then sent us another 100 with no shipping fee and we actually got both sets in the mail a few days later!

It does help you tan quicker but my advice would be to wait until maybe your last couple of weeks to use it because if you are only up to 4 min right now I think you'd more likely burn then tan right now. I too have fair skin and waited to buy any until I had gone a good 4-5 times...but I have tanned before so I know what to expect from my skin!

Well I made two calls today ~one to continental letting them know i am bringing my wedding dress--well they could really care less...i just find it hard to believe that there can't be a note made on my reservation that i a bringing this..I have to wait until I check in the day of..but as the man told me ' the flight attendents are usually nice and will try to help you out in anyway" Well what happens if i get a bitchy one!!!! ugh! ~well at least now my credit card company knows i'll be traveling in a month or so and not to suspend my credit card when they see charges from the Domnican!!!! ** I know it is a bit early to do this stuff but I am on school break this week and need to get stuff done NOW cause once I go back it will be insane..I have exams until May 8th and then my bach party Sat. May 9th and then we leave Monday, may 11th!!!!

I'd have to check to see how many silver I have. When I bought them from the Christmas Tree store I just took what I could get because the price was so good!!! I'll let you know when I've counted them. Quote: Originally Posted by BillysBride Hey, how many of the mugs are silver?

I still have them. I actually emailed you back on March 10 asking for your address so I could figure out shipping from Vermont and never heard back so I figured you weren't interested. If you are please let me know and I can figure out shipping. Also, we bought them at Orientaltrading so if you need a bunch more you might be better off just getting them all from there. Quote: Originally Posted by Prettyhazardous Megan you were supposed to be checking on shipping for the sticky pads for me. Have you found out yet? Also where did you purchase them? I may need to get some more.

They just went in the mail today! Sorry!!!!

I am doing memory frames for my dad and sister and figured why not add two more and include my dogs (i have super cute baby pictures of them both).....so i'll have 4 mini frames on my flowers! I was able to get a package of nice mini frames from JoAnn fabrics for a little under $4 bucks Hope that helps

I just got a pair of white underarmour shorts 1) for chaffing and 2) they are wicking shorts so hopefully they'll help to keep me a bit cooler! I have to wear one of those stupid long bras to hold up the girls...i totally wish I didn't have too! I am going to be hot but i am getting a cute white dress incase I can't take the warmth after pictures and will want something to change into.

ours wasn't outside infront of people...but I did have to straddle my FI so our heads could be really close in the picture and it was so ackward and not us and it totally showed in the picture....we def. didn't pick that one!! You'll be fine though...I bet people are going to think it is so cute...or that perhaps you are famous or something...you should totally play it up!

For us we are officially under the 2 month mark for our wedding! We get married the 15th of May! Things we've gone ~we are passing out brochure and luggage tags as we see people to save on shipping--we'll mail them out to people not in Vermont ~We bought sun screen, aloe, motrin, pepto and allergy medicine to have on hand for us and our guests (small versions of these went into the first aid kits but we know people will need more!) ~We are starting to buy clothes for the trips ~We finished up our vows and sand cermemony wording and mailed a copy to our Wedding Coordinator so she'll have a copy and so incase it gets misplaced we can log into our email and get a copy! ~One large hockey bag is packed with ALL of our OOT stuff!!! ~I bought a cloth garment bag because my seamstress said the plastic one I had would most likely rip if I had to put it in an overhead bin .....so many other little things we are getting done...I am just trying to get some done each week so it isn't all left to do the week before we leave!

I got ours at Walmart in the school supply section. They had vertical and horizontal bag tags. We then just bought some clear gimp at michaels to make the hangers because they didnt have those at our walmart! Hope that helps...oh and it was cheap!

We ordered postcards to give to our guest in their OOT bags for Dreams Punta Cana, well after 21 days we still didnt have the postcards so we called Vistaprint and they sent us another 100...well both sets came in right about the same time so now we have 200 postcards and we don't need that many.... Any Dreams Punta Cana Bride interested in them....it would be 100 only for the cost of shipping... PM and let me know!

I can't remember the exact wording but we recently went to a wedding where on the invitation it said something along the lines of... While we love all you children dearly, only the children of the immediate family members of the bride and groom will be present at the Reception Obviously it will have to be tweeked but it was something like that and that should make it clear to the cousin that his 10 kids aren't invited....and the one friend for your daughter...just have that person keep it on the down low that they are bringing their child if they are friends with people who aren't alloewd to bring theirs Hope that helps a bit!

We are going to Dreams Punta Cana this May, so close to the dates you are looking for. Our guests have paid about $1400-$1500 for 7 nights including air. quite a few are flying out of Vermont which makes it more expensive cause you really can't get anywhere from here easily-so if you are near a bigger airport you might get a cheaper price!

I don't think you have to give them all the details. I would say that you are going through some personal stuff that doesn't have you in a good space right now and you have to do what is best for you and that is taking some time for yourself. Do you know anyone else in the childcare field that you could perhaps at least send their way for an interivew? Also could you tell them that ideally you'd like to be done in 3 weeks, however you don't want to leave them high and dry and that if they dont' ahve anyone by then you can fill in when needed

Still going..... **17 bug wipes $1/each **water toys $1/each ** 24 coin purses $5/12 purses / 24 sticky notes $4 **12 large hibiscus bags $8 **manicure sets $1/each Okay, I think that is it and that I've posted it all correctly ** Please PM me

Okay, have to admit it...I bought to much! Here is what I have for sale! Prices DO NOT include shipping. Buyer will have to pay via paypal and we'll figure out shipping when I know where I am sending it. ** 16 travel mugs ( blue, red, silver, green) $2/each **37 60" beach towels, various patterns $2/each **17 first aid kits with lip balm, sewing kit, pepto, motrin, wipes and band aids $1.5/each

Oh congrats!!! He is so beautiful! Enjoy every minute of it!

YOu can find some good deals on ebay...just make sure you check expiration dates!

Do you know of any places where you can order bulk in disposable cameras? I feel sooo unprepared!! but im trying to keep things together! LOL... you ladies definitely have me beat!

I am actually calm...which is amazing. My 2nd and most likely final dress fitting is March 30th, we have pretty much all the stuff we need for the DW Wedding and AHR. Only waiting for a couple more couples to book their trips..but they are pretty definite as they are FI's sister and her husband and his uncle - they were just waiting for the best prices. We are getting RSVP's for our AHR...so that can be pretty straightned out before we leave. Now we just have easy stuff like tanning, buy clothes for the trip, etc...nothing to stressful at this point. If anyone would like a copy of our pre-travel brochure specific to dreams punta Cana just let me know. Also, we were able to do luggage tags for cheap--we got 250 free business cards that we formatted so they could be a luggage tag and walmart had badge holders in their school supply section (12 tags for $2.5) We've pretty much have figured out the wording for our ceremony and sand cermony and have asked sisters to read that for us. I just got tank tops and irons for me, future mother-in law, 1 that says sister of the groom and 1 for sister of the bride and 2 that say friend of the bride because we dn't have a wedding party. If anyone wants links to stuff or help with anything let me know!

Just had to say that the company we used for the Beer pong...well we ordered on march 1st and we already have it...it came a yesterday! Now that is fast!

It is going to be so much fun to play! Even more challenging then the usual version because it can float and move!!!!!! We'll have to take pics and post when we both get back! Quote: Originally Posted by Erika J OMG, I just bought it!

HAHAHA.....just had to share...we just bought beer pong that we can play in the pool! We are all going to have so much fun playing this in the pool! Nothing like beer pong at an all inclusive resort! if you are interested here's the website Beer Pong Party Racks
