Soon To Be Mrs. Gomez

Hi, I'm probably going to have to do what you are doing and my color theme is red too. Do you ahev pics of the maracas so I can get an idea & were they fairly easy to do?

I have used a heart pulse band and it does help because it makes you push yourself when you are not working hard enough.

Congratulations and Welcome. You will really enjoy this forum. I'm a L.A. girl too.

I know. My FI is counting down too! I saw him looking at a calendar this morning. I'm excited, but I feel very anxous too. I did fall for a April fool' s joke today. I wasn't on my toes.

I'll probably wax legs, bikini and maybe under arms, but I scared of the armpits because I heard it really hurts.

Those are cute. I like the logo too!

The shower was actually hosted by my Mom, my aunts and my sister so in-laws really have no excuse. I'm trying not to let it get me down, but I'm seeing them in a different light now. They say they are so happy about the wedding, but they really don't inquire alot and all they keep saying is how they are so waiting for a vacation. Maybe they just don't how to express themselves or maybe they are thinking of giving a monetary gift closer to the wedding date, but I really doubt it.

I think I would be a little upset too. My dad tried to so that to me too, but I let him know how I felt about it.

Okay so I had my Bridal shower this past weekend and loved it! All guests were so happy and gave me lovely gifts, but I noticed both my FMIL and my FSIL didn't bring anything. I'm not a gift greedy person, but they didn't even say anything. MY FMIL did say after that she was going to see what everyone else gave so she could pick a gift that I didn't get, but then I found out later that she had gone out the day before and bought a bunch of dresses for the wedding because she is trying to figure out which one she wants to wear for the wedding. My FSIL went out partying later that evening and is planning a trip to Vegas with her friends next weekend so I'm assumming she is trying to save money for that trip. I tried to not let it bother me, but I'm feeling really hurt right now. EVERYONE ELSE at the shower gave a gift except them. I don't even think they felt embarrassed. I don't what to think. I haven't mentioned to FI, but should I?

That is a beautiful dress. The price is great too!

Do they tell you what wines are included when you are ordering?

I want to wish you a very Happy Wedding Day and a Happy Married Life! I cannot believe your day came so fast! Enjoy!!!!

I want to ask a question about the reservation procedure for the sit down restaurants at Dreams. How far in advance can we reserve spots? My FI and I are really interested in the Japanese restaurant for our first night there, but we are thinking it's a popular choice so we are not sure if we will be able to get in. Also, are the restaurant menus availble online to look at or do they do different menus daily like the buffets?

My FI is a big wine fan and he is trying to keep away from beer because he does not want to be bloated during the wedding so is wine part of the all-inclusive at Dreams or is it just limited to beer, mixed drinks & sodas?

I don't know any Mariachis in Cabo, but the prices for them seem really high. I wanted to use the Mariachis for my Welcome Dinner, but they were charging $700.00 an hour. I'm hoping my family will pitch in for this because I love Mariachis!

They are actually both nice, but the purple one has a "pop" to it. Great choice.

Cute find. You find great deals.

Oh Good. I'm glad everything turned out great. I do want to see pics soon.

Thanks for sharing! Love the little baby flowers in your hair.

I'm choosing to do the pics after because I like the idea of him seeing me for the first time coming down the aisle. I'm hoping my photographer is quick so we don't take too much time before reception. I guess it would be less time consuming if we did photos before, but I'm a hopeless romantic.

I think the beach idea in Vegas is a great one. That area is awesome. That's my favorite place in Vegas and I think yoru guests would love it.

Those are adorable. Great idea!

I am doing one now because I have several single people and I think it will be fun!

I caught this review a little late, but I love it and I love all the pics shown. I love the swim cover-ups all the girls wore.

Yeay!!! So exciting. You will have a beautiful wedding. Please take lots of pics! Have fun most of all!!!
