I am getting excited Megan. It's sort of surreal that all of this is happening very soon!

Yay Miranda. It all looks wonderful. Have a fabulous time!

Seriously Jacqueline you are straight out of a fairytale gorgeous. I hope you enjoyed your day. congratulations!

These are so beautiful! You both look so in love and beautiful. yay!

Boo! I'm so annoyed for you. It seems like you have the right attitude though. Focus on the people that are there and then when you come back all the others will be all "we should have gone... "

MarieSam your siggy pic is lovely!!

I'm constantly amazed by these threads. You did so much and it all looks great. Congratulations I bet your guests loved it all!

Congrats Shannon! That's so great. Thanks for sharing. I love marc jacobs.

Yeah Lauren I think you are the next PRC bride after me. Nobody in June? I will contact you when I get back to arrange the mailing of it to you. I am excited especially that my on the fence people have decided to come on board again. So we only lost 8 guests from FI's firm that all wanted to go but were forbidden basically. I don't know what's left. odds and ends not too bad. It's more about appts here and there for me and buying last minut things. agh!

I'm feeling nostalgic- and finally getting re-excited for the wedding as the swine flu drama dies down a bit. I got enagaged February 9th 2008. FI planned a weekend getaway for us and he told me nothing except to make no plans for that weekend. In the weeks leading up to this little trip I couldn't handle the suspense I wanted to know where we were going. So I made him give me a clue everyday leading up to it and finally (after not being able to figure out the clues) the day before packing we played like speed round of clues and I guessed the Bahamas. I just have to say- his clues were super abstract- like only having to do with the Bahamas in his head. It was pretty funny. I digress... We left EARLY friday the 9th and were really snippity the whole way to the airport and actually had a fight at the airport and sat on opposite sides of the waiting area. (this is so not us-but he was acting crazy... little did I know) Anyway,we got to the resort and everything was peachy we drank,played, swam etc. All the while this nagging voice in my head was like "he's not proposing.. I mean he would plan something special- don't get your hopes up cause what if he doesn't?" This was like my anthem cause all my friends were like "do you think he's proposing" the week before and I adamantly said no becuase I didn't want to get all disappointed if he didn't. That night he planned nothing special for dinner and we were at the casino and he was losing sooo much money at the roulette table it was crazy. he was just betting and betting.. I sensed some anxiety and I suggested we get out of there. On our way our we tried one slot machine and won $250 bucks! As we were leaving he asked some guy if there was a rooftop deck and there wasn't.. Looking defeated he suggested we go back to our room. I at this point was super tired cause we gotten up at like 5am in ny and I suggested we call it a night. I threw myself on the bed and he sat on a chair by the window staring aimlessly out and was like "you're tired?". Then he was like "c'mon hun lets go for a walk by the beach." I was so reluctant. "fine", I said. As we walked out on the beach hit the bar and chugged a bahama mama. That was very unlike him. he started speed walking towards the walkway out on the beach and I got so angry cause I had kitten heels and they were getting stuck in the deck and he was leaving me in the dust. Finally we had walked pretty far out on this walkway and were out looking at the fish, with the glow of the moon he said "hey hunny look at this one." I assumed he meant the fish and I turned around and he was on bent knee an propsed. What's the first thing that comes out of my mouth? "What? wait are you kidding?" It was a reflex cause I was so surprised. I can see his hand shaking as he held my ring and said "Yamille don't make any sudden movements". I tend to be a little clutsy so he thought I would throw my arms around and the ring might have fallen into the ocean. Of course I said yes. As we kissed and embraced it really felt like nobody else was around and then there was this amazing fireworks display. There was nobody else on the beach so it felt like it was just for us. (FI tried to later take credit for that. ha ha) I didn't cry until we were walking and he told me that he had rented a car and driven out to long island a few weeks ago to get my dad's blessing. Also I was amazed that my mom and sis didn't let on to anything. We get married in 16 days.

Kristy! That is hysterical.

Hi everyone! So I am DQ but it's all good. Just think of it as a donation. My iphone was stolen a few days ago and I feel lost without it and when I couldn't "easily" take a pic of the scale at the gym on wed then I was like "screw it". I just can't see myself bringing my camera to the gym and then having to upload to the computer - too much hassle right now. With all the swine flue drama/changing things back and forth,finishing up my internship, finishing grad school then and leaving for mexico in 11 days i am barely hanging on. Kelly and I are still buddys since I am still excercising and working out but I just can't be acountable for the wed thing. besides I know I won't be taking scale pics in mexico for 2 weeks. I don't know what I was thinking. Congrats to everyone on their loss. Nice work!

I am getting excited. It's crazy cause I feel like I put thing son hold for a week due to the flue drama and now i'm like agh! So... Who is the next Paradisus bride in June? I have a starfish passed to me from kelly that I would like to pass to the next Paradisus bride. Is there anyone before Lauren? It would be great if it could keep returning to the PRC. It's a blue starfish. It will be in planning thread.

Erica you are too funny. Yeah I had an aversion to pizza a while back because of a boxed wine experience. ha Quote: Originally Posted by mrsrhbtobe LOL Erika!

ha ha Michelle that's funny. I'm an original flavor - nacho cheese kind of girl

thanks bumbles. You must be getting so excited!

just as an FYI if your wedding is in Mexico you can have them shipped to your resort there and it is way cheaper!

I htought about doing this and then punked out. You did a fabulous job! I want one.

Miranda and Cattie may the force be with you! You'll get it done.. (check back with me 2 days before i leave and I will be psycho chic) happy times ladies!

msg- oh no wonder! I never eat that in anything. it all makes sense. So disgusting and good at the same time. Oh vinger salt chips are crazy. They kind of hurt my mouth though. no?

oh yeah- i can't have those in the house either. Katrina- I just saw your ticker- you must be so excited for your cruise!

So I never really eat Doritos. It's just not part of my diet. I rather splurge on something else but FI bought them and seriously I want to kill him becuase I am avoiding the kitchen cause they are calling my name. I seriously think that there is a light dusting of crack on them becuase I CANNOT have just one. They are so nasty too- with that artificial nacho cheese- but damn they are so good. What's a food you rarely eat but when it's around you can't have just one.

Yay Klila. Nice info. I'm over this swine flu drama(my mom not so much but whatev) I leave in 13 days !! My dad was given a script for Cipro just in case.

Yay. Date twins and leaving the same day! I got too nervous to look at your list though. I scrolled past it. ha ha It's on lady!
