I am sooo sorry for your situation it must suck. When planning a DW we all expect some people we think are going to go let us down but for both your Mother and brother let you down it must hurt. Do you have any other family that will make it an aunt or close cousin? Can those people talk to your mother and brother? You have some time so I would let it go for a bit and then maybe offer up some cash if it is too much for them or maybe ask your bro to walk you down the aisle maybe he was hurt when you didn't ask earlier and is now not so willing to go? Good luck no matter what...

That sounds like fun... smores I am doing my welcome dinner at one of the restaurants at my resort. It is too expensive to do everything and that is why your guest are paying for an AI why keep paying extra?

I like #1 half and half

What size are the fans ?

I always see this ELF stuff in everyone's oot bag photos now I know why great prices...has anyone ever used this brand before is it any good? or is it you get what you pay for?

Love the dress...for hair suggestions I would go half up half down show off the neckline of the dress and your shoulders...it will open up your face and show off the super cute earrings. Def don't go pin straight do like big Jessica Simpson curls in the back not tight curling iron curls it will look put together but like you are trying to hard and will match the dress which is super cute as well...I am with the girls though on the necklace it does nothing to enhance the look

soooo pretty

Hi ladies so purple is my FAVORITE color (any shade) if you had or will have purple BM dresses please post your pics or if you have a planning thread with purple details please post for inspiration Thanks

That is funny

wow looks great and great break down on how much each bag cost

How cute is the tie I want one for my wedding party and if you buy in bulk it is cheaper but the code didn't work for me either

Wow great colors how much sand is everyone buying? and i read somewhere it is illegal to bring sand in and out of the country does that count for this type of sand?

Now this may sound a little dumb, but I am wondering why I have to pay an additional fee per guest to have dinner at the reception when they are already paying to stay at an AI resort? I'm still very new to this so any help will be greatly appreciated Christina This was the most frustrating part for me too but they have to pay for extra staff (cooks, waiters, bar tenders, dishwashers, etc...) I also hated that they were charging me a price per person and then add on price for liquor per person

Oh yeah, and what will you use it for? The complex ones (like the pics) dont' always turn out the same when printing and might not work for everywhere that you want to use it. I think that most people found sticking to simpler ones was easier to carry it thru. I never thought how hard printed some of them may be. I liked the black one too but not in black but I don't know how to change the color. Computers really aren't my thing And I still can't figure out where that flag came from oh well

I don't know how that blue flag ended up there so pay no attention sorry

Ok so I am started to do things for the wedding and I need a logo and can't choose one and I am not sure if I like any of these either what do you guys think...? This is my first time posting pics hope I did it right I read all the threads but really didn't understand

HI, Picking your place will be the most stressful part of the planning the rest is all fun. You have to make sure you ask important questions of what you want to narrow down the choices or it will get totally over whelming. Like do you want it to be kid friendly resort that gets rid of at least 50% of your choices either way. How many guest do you think you will have 100 or 10? Do you want all inclusive or not? I fell in love with one place and had to settle for a different place due to the prices of the rooms for the guest that I budgeted. So my advise is figure out what you want then find it don't look at everything and confuse yourself.

Do you have a pic ?

Great job everything looks amazing

I started researching what we need to get married in Jamaica... and I am confused...what paperwork do you need and what are you sending in?

I would have liked to do the underwater ones, but with the cost of everything else in the bags, it would have blown my budget! Some guests did bring the underwater cameras and they have some fun pictures. I think this is a nice thing that most people don't have or think about and they can be really expensive to buy there. They were like $17 at our resort gift shop! I love the idea of a water camera I haven't bought mine yet (don't know how many I need yet) but I am totally getting them may these links will help you out Custom Disposable Cameras, $2.49 each - Underwater Cameras Wholesale Disposable Digital & Custom Wedding Cameras, Kid Tough Polaroid Camera & Film, Cheap MP3 Players Hope this helps
