I really like the third one... it has some character to it.

Hi! I'm January 10, 2009. I'm giving myself until the 6 month mark before I get really serious about exercising and eating right. I've still got a couple of weeks to eat animal crackers dunked in chocolate frosting. (which I'm having right now) lol I used to be a personal trainer so luckily I know what to do... its just a matter of actually doing it. Feel free to pick my brain about exercising! Sounds like you guys are doing great tho. Those are some great results!

I still haven't seen the finale! So annoyed with myself. lol The show was on yesterday during the day, but they were on an episode that I saw already. I told myself I'd put it back on in a little while and I FORGOT! Duh. Now I gotta try to find a rerun again.

OMG- I was reading and feeling really bad that your day sucked and then I read that about your sister and the invites and I got sick to my stomach. That is totally awful and I would be crying my eyes out if that happened to me. So much to deal with in one day. Ha, and wine would just make me cry more. lol I'm so sorry you have to deal with this. It kills me when people who agree to be a part of your wedding drop the ball. Why don't they just say NO when you ask them? So annoying. I hope tomorrow is a better day! ps- I volunteer myself to call your sister and tell her she sucks.

Welcome to the forum. Your wedding plans sound awesome!

Wow! Those are great!

Welcome to the forum.

Was in target today to return something and ended up cleaning them out of these to put in my OOT bags... for a $1.00 each I couldn't leave them behind. lol

Great pictures! Thanks for sharing the link

Dallas LustyTush I used my new last name. My maiden name would be GlitterHorn. I like LustyTush better. lol

At first I was going to say that I would do anything for a good picture, but after thinking about it for a minute I'd say I will do anything for a good picture after the ceremony. I'd like to stay clean for that part (if the bottom gets dirty tho oh well)... as for the rest of the day... I'll roll around in a mud puddle if Sol asks me to! And for the TTD I'll climb a tree, jump in the water, roll in the sand... whatever will get the best pics. I can have that dress cleaned- I can't afford to bring Sol home with me to have her take new pictures cuz I was a dud the first time.

We were planning a big wedding here at one point too, but who has all that money! The DW is the way to go I think... Have fun planning!

ooh, i can't wait to hear about this! I used to watch him when he was only on the sci-fi channel at like midnight... before he hit mainstream channels. lol Can't wait to hear what it was like to be in that room.

Hmmm, talk about being stuck between a rock and a hard place. I think that depending on your relationship with your FMIL I would call her directly. I would tell her that you don't want to hurt her feelings in anyway, but that you and your FI prefer to save all of the celebrating for Mexico and that also, you don't want to exclude your family members from anything that is meant to celebrate your marriage. Ask her to put herself in your parents shoes and she would probably understand- I doubt she would be happy if your parents got to celebrate with you and FI and she wasn't able to attend. Talking to her yourself will give you a better idea of how she's feeling since your FI sounds like mine and doesn't give enough detail about stuff like that. I would probably apologize for agreeing, but say that as much as you appreciate the offer and think it would be a great time, it just doesn't fit with your plan to keep it discreet. I feel your pain on this one- we are having a hard time deciding what to do about our legal at home. On the one hand we would like our parents to be there and on the other we think they will be like- what the heck are we going to Mexico for if you're already married? Let us know what happens.

Wow! You looked great. When you get your pro pics you definitely have to post a link. I have Sol for my wedding in January and can't wait!

Thanks so much for the reviews. Did you decide what you are going to do yet?

Heidi, I can't believe how good everything looks. You girls are either inspiring me to try it all myself or hire one of you to do it! lol Did you have any trouble getting everything down there? I'm nervous about having to pack a lot of DIY stuff.

Morgan, have a great time! Can't wait to hear all about it when you get back. ~Kelly

Thanks everyone. Final draft of the paper is due Tuesday next week. I'll let you know how I do! BTW- Have I mentioned lately how great this forum and all of you are! ~Kel

So, thanks to Jennifer, I went on to mywedding.com and built our site this afternoon. Check it out... Kelly & Ron - wedding website by mywedding.com So easy to set up. Thanks Jennifer!

So, I'm looking for some help. For my summer course, we are writing a research paper on any topic and I chose Wedding Traditions. I'm exploring their history, but also what they mean to brides today. So, if you wouldn't mind. Could you tell me what the following "traditions" mean to you and why you are including them in your wedding (or if you are not including them)? Thanks in advance! Kelly BTW- my teacher love the idea of "interviewing" you guys to see what you say. Here they are: 1. The White Wedding Dress 2. Wedding Rings 3. The Bridal Party 4. Your father giving you away 5. An over-the-face veil (blusher)

Great pics!

We have chosen a photographer from Riviera Maya based on her photographs and her blog. I fell in love with the energy captured in her photos and had to have her. When our original trip to St. Lucia had to be changed due to an unexpected increase in costs I immediately chose Riviera Maya so I could have the photographer I wanted. I'm excited that she is familiar with the area. I think that's a big plus...
