I am speahless. But I do agree that FI probably thought he was crazy too, or else he wouldn't have said anything to you.

Oh, it's probably because I bug them constantly LOL Just ask your contact in Miami if you've been assigned an onsite coordinator yet and if not, can it be arranged, since you have questions about specific onsite prices and stuff (just tell them you want prices on extras like favors, place cards, colored linnens lol)

Oh wow, I hope Andrea comes back as someone "new", I liked her I've been so super stressed lately with work and $ and stuff. We went yesterday to mens warehouse and FI found a suit he LOVES, which says a lot since FI hates getting dressed up and even more, he hates wearing a suite. It's beige and silk and soft The guy was ordering it in FI's size and we should be able to get in Monday or Tuesday. They also had pants about a shade or two darker and we are going to have the GM get those adn shirts from WeddingTropics and then the GM are done!

In exactly 2 weeks, FI and I will be on vacation at the MP I've arranged a wedding site inspection and a resort inspection. I've also been assigned my weddng coordinator. Has anyone worked with Lily Sanchez? I'm off to do a search

yeah, I think I might make up a one word "fake" answer and change all of my and FI's security questions...like our mom's maiden names might suddenly be "Mexico" or "Fuzzybottoms" or something else odd....

If it makes you feel any better, my FI wants to have nothing to do with the planning and then tells me that I'm obsessed or that's all I do...well, Hello, I'm doing it all alone! So basically, he's no help either! LOL Yeah, I figured the store gave themselves a coushin and I know it's not wedding season so that should help with the speed of things. I need to get craking on stuff, but lack of funds has been a MAJOR problem. We go to Mexico in a few weeks, so at least after that, we'll have a better sense of how much our wedding is going to actually cost

Your dress is beautiful and you look beautiful in it!!!! I'd say go for both...if you feel it's "too much" you can always take one off

"Forgot your password" links the easy way in for hackers Wed Sep 3, 2008 11:31AM EDT Never mind creating a password with at least eight characters, two of which are numbers, one of which is a capital letter, and one of which is a symbol like (*&^%$). The easiest way for a hacker to weasel into your account is likely the "Forgot your password?" link. "Forgot your password?" features are older than the Internet, providing businesses and site owners a simple way to let a user reset a forgotten password, provided he can verify his credentials by asking a few personal questions that only the rightful user should know. For years the archetypical question was, of course, the "Mother's maiden name" challenge. In recent years, additional challenges have emerged, such as asking the street you grew up on, your favorite pet, and grandparents' first names. Is all of this stuff really secure? More than one researcher is sounding the alarm over these tools, noting that while this data may have been private a decade ago, in an era of personal blogs, online resumes, and rampant social networking services, "personal" information drawn from your past is now widely available for public consumption. According to a researcher at PARC, you can even buy black market directories of personal information "like dog's names," for about $15 per batch. It's certainly a lot easier than guessing passwords like AHFplug41*. Think this doesn't happen? There aren't any statistics available, but these hacks are widely suspected in myriad cases where accounts have been compromised. (Even Paris Hilton is said to have fallen prey to the "what is your dog's name?" password reset hack. It doesn't help to have one of the most infamous dogs in America...) But if you need more proof, check out this "how I did it" step by step guide to hacking a password from one writer at Scientific American. In about an hour, it seems, our researcher managed to compromise one (willing) victim's life entirely through password reset links. MSNBC has an exhaustive amount of additional information on the issue, but the takeaway is clear: If you provide information for password reset systems, don't use data (like other people's names and addresses) that can be easily discovered or guessed. Better yet, consider creating a second tier of passwords you use for questions like these, and keep them written down and locked in a safe if you must. In other words: Your mother's maiden name may really be Jones, but that you can't pretend it wasn't Mxlpxlxl!7631.

Ok, so I went yesterday to have my last brides maid mesured, so the dresses are ordered. I asked how long they take to come in and they said 4 months!!! 4 MONTHS! Is that normal? My weddign is in 4 months!!! The woman was like "they'll come in in time" I'm trying NOT to freak out!

We're sending out 130 invites (300 people when you add in "& family"). Right now, we have 24 people with plane tickets and we expect, at max, 30-50 people (probably closer to 30)

Four Paws wrote me back: Thank you very much for your email message. Like you, Four Paws is deeply concerned about reports of injuries suffered by some dogs as a result of a manufacturing defect in some of our Pimple Ball toys. We want you to know that we have stopped shipping these toys to our distributors and we have asked them to have retailers immediately remove the toys from their shelves and return them at our expense. We have also stopped all shipments of the toys from the manufacturer, and we are sending Executive Vice President Barry Askin to personally inspect the manufacturer’s facility in order to make sure that the defect has been corrected. The ball was designed with two holes to eliminate risk of suction. Unfortunately, in the production of some balls, the smaller second hole became blocked on the inside, thus making it hard to detect the defect with the naked eye. As a result, in addition to repairing the toy molds, we are also changing the packaging of the Pimple Balls. The packaging change will result in a tie that must clear both holes, thus insuring there are always two clear holes in the toy. If you purchased a Four Paws Pimple Ball with Bell toy, please immediately take the toy away from your pet. Instructions to return the toy are posted on our website Four Paws Products – The Home of Quality Pet Products. Thank you again for your message and your concern. Please be assured that the safety and well being of pets is our top priority and we are doing everything we can to make sure that this problem is solved as quickly as possible. Sincerely,

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that I did that too!

LOL that's a great one every time I hear/read it lol

I feel so bad for Chai

My sister just sent me this link and it's heartbreaking! I know there are a lot of dog lovers on here so I wanted to make sure all of your pets are safe. The Chai Story Luckily, that is one ball my dogs don't have!

NO! No white unless it's an accent...as in a black dress with a white sash or something. No one should have white as the primary color of their dress other than the bride unless the bride wants it for a specific look!

good article! I like the idea of BDW brides posting theirs too!

Just remember...the BDW girls got your back!

Very cute! Good job!!!

Thanks for the review! Your wedding sounds awesome!!! I can't wait for mine!!!!!

I came in on this late (have been MIA the past week or so). This is my thoughts on it... Maybe when she RSVP'd no, she didn't realize she'd be home in time to attend. Then when she was, she had already RSVP'd no and didn't want to "crash". I know here, showers cost money, usually a per head amount (if it's at a resturant or something). Maybe since she already said no, she didn't want to cause an issue by showing up. I was going to suggest just saying something to her like "We had a great time sunday, I was really disappointed you weren't there. When I saw you at FFIL's house, I figured you were on your way" and then see what she says.

Wow! They are great I just saved them and might edit them to fit my info :-D

DaveMatthews...way to make progress!!! I so want to save the DJ$$ and use an IPOD, but FI and my mom and sister are against it...so we'll be forking over about $1000 for a DJ -waste!

OMG that's great! I love his veil!!!!

OMG! The origional posting has been taken down by the author, but based on what you guys said, I think I'm glad I didn't see it. I hope the owner gets whats coming to him and the dog lives happily ever after!!!!
