Great t-shirts. I might have to look into this!

Hi Danielle. What a terrible thing to go through. My thoughts are prayers are with you and your family.

Hi ButlerGirl08. Was the liquor top shelf? If not, do you know if you can pay extra to get top shelf?

Yikes! I agree with both ladies. Hand it to your mom and she can gently tell her that the wedding list has been cut down to fit your budget. Is there any chance Anne will find out the truth? If that's the case then just tell it like it is. If not and she finds out it could blow up and be really bad.

Beautiful pictures. Good luck to you both.

Welcome. I have the same questions you do so I'll be interested to know what answers you get.

Never mind. I got it!

I'm definitely interested. I'm still new here, how do I pm Ann R?

Lillies! I love the look but their fragrance can be overwhelming.

Thanks Kevsgirl. That's how I feel, disgusted with myself that I can't do this. I have a great FI and he helps me but I know it has to come from within.

I just feel like when I get home I never get out again, something is always taking up my time. At work it's during my lunch. I don't love that I am getting weighed in front of my co-workers but it's okay for me.

Those bags are awesome. Were they expensive? You could always put in a visor to fill it a little more but you have some great stuff there. I wouldn't sweat it.

Welcome to the site. I'm new too.

Welcome from another newbie!

Hey LC Rachel. I hope we both do well and have a long lasting change. I noticed that you got married in PV. That's one of the destinations we're thinking of. I'd love to hear more about your wedding. Did you honeymoon there also? I am visitn PV in October and want to look around but don't want to spend the whole week. Maybe a day or two and see 4 or 5 venues. Any suggetions would be welcome. Thanks, Kathie

Good luck Jen. I am joining WW Thursday at work. It is a good diet, it's pretty easy to follow. We can keep each other updated on how we do. I'm really worried about my weight because I used to be able to lose weight very easily but I'm finding that it's getting harder as I get older. One thing I can tell you is that you have to treat yourself. I buy the WW ice cream bars (I think they're 2 points) and I feel like I'm having dessert. They're yummy! Good luck to both of us!

Does anyone do WW at work? I am starting at my work on Thursday. I have done it before and I always lose but I keep gaining back that 20 lbs. This time that 20 turned into 40. I've very discouraged right now and need to do something. My fiance is going to follow the diet along with me. He needs to lose maybe 5 pounds TOTAL. He comes home for lunch every day and runs on our treadmill. I haven't been on it in months. I also belong to a gym that I haven't been to in months. HELP! I need inspiration. My wedding will not be until 2010 but I need to feel good now. I'm going to Puerto Vallarta in October and I'd like to look half way decent in a bathing suit.

Hi Christa. Love the rug! Looks like the colors will go nicely with the colors in the room. Overstock is great. I am coming off a 4 day weekend. Took Thursday off to veg and ended up cleaning my house. Never ends!

I was in St. Thomas many years ago and it was beautiful. My niece went on her honeymoon and said it's grown. We were thinking of having our wedding there but don't have much info on it. Anything you can share? Good luck on your day!

You did a beautiful job on those. Did you use a stencil?

Thanks everyone for your input. We are looking into the sites mentioned. I'll keep everyone posted on how we do!

This is my second wedding so I don't want all the bells and whistles that a young couple requires. We do not need a videographer and we won't want a lot of pictures. We are more concerned about the venues and having our friends and family enjoy the reception. We would like to have open bar, a band, a dinner and cocktail reception. Is it possible to have a destination wedding for 25-35 guests with a budget of approximately $7,500?

Hi Morgan and Jamaicabride09. Thanks for the welcome. I'm really looking forward to getting my plans arranged. How long did it take you both to plan your weddings? I think you're right Morgan about the hurricane season, we have to look into that a little more. Thanks!

Congratulations Amy and Hanssel! Hope your day is sparkling!

Hi. My name is Kathie and I'm new here. I don't have a definite date picked out but we're thinking October/November 2010 either in Cayman, Aruba or Mexico. That's one of the reasons I joined this forum. I'm trying to get as much information as possible. My fiance and I are traveling to Puerto Vallarta this October and next March we will be going to Aruba to check out possibilities. This is my second marriage. I am 51 and want to have a nice wedding but nothing elaborate. We will probably be having 25-35 guests. Any one have any ideas, budgets they want to share? Thanks, Kathie
