im definitely getting annoyed with Jillian now. I like her but how stupid can you be to not listen to Jake or Tanner and every other guy who has said that someone has a gf And then of course his family is going to beef him up and say how great he is to her, its HIS FAMILY. And his sisters were kinda obnoxious with how they were saying guys will always be jealous of Wes b/c of his looks and talent and the way he is. I wanted to barf. I have no idea which way this show will go, all i know is she ends up happy in the end so im assumming she lets Wes go before the end. im thinking Reid is the front runner.

Probably will run about 20 min (thats long for me, i hate running) and then lifting legs and abs after work!

I dont know how I missed your review before but I love your pictures! I have to say number 49 is my favorite and you look like you should be in some glamour magazine!! I had a question about your dress.. my dress is not the same one but the very same style and I want it to fit me how you fit yours.. question is, you said it was hard to walk in, what about sitting in it I dont plan on changing later..

aw you two are so cute! Great pics

Looks fantastic and I love how you took your hair down for the reception Gorgeous!

I think if its REALLY important to him that his family be there, then you might have to make a couple compromises in finding a place you guys would enjoy and also one they would go to. But with that being said, there is a chance you guys willd ecide on a location and start planning your wedding and then they will end up not going to it anyways. AT least we ran into a situation like that. You two should just sit down, talk it out and figure out EXACTLY what you both want to make your wedding exactly what you want, and then go from there. You need to be on the same page of things that are acceptable and not though.

that was a big no no for us.. I mean we probably could have done it but neither of us wanted to. He went to vegas in May for four nights and Im going to vegas next week for four nights

ah I have to disagree! I didnt like Jake I mean he is goodlooking and so nice but so not my type with some of the things he said.. totally turned me off! I do agree Wes should have been let go a looong time ago. Jesse is my fav (im bias casue of the name tho, hehe) and I also like Reid for some reason. And kypton.

I agree! I went on a lunch hour by myself too and ended up buying my dress on my own! I kinda liked not having people stare at me and hmm and haa over me and how i looked in dresses.

btw, why did jillian (adlergray) get banned? im shocked

hmm ok thanks for the info. Well at least you have enjoyed making them and FI has been included and up for helping!! Thats cute That is a whole whack of invites your sending out though, wow. You have alot of patience. We are not doing an AHR so that part is avoided for us as well!

I have heard of island importers but have never ordered from there before. I think they are good though? ugh, so your sending out invites? Is it bad if we don't I just feel like I could use that money for something else since people already accepted/booked if they are coming.

Kris I was just in banff this weekend but didnt go out! Did you guys have fun? Post some pictures both of you! I leave next thursday for my bachelorette party in Vegas with 15 of my gfs. I will definitely post a couple pics when i get back! We aren't doing a theme other than our standard dresses -or at least as far as i know! They know I don't like 'themes' or being dressed up though so I am sure it will be close to what im expecting

blana I love yours.. but maybe I am having a dense moment, what is your theme??

I have been searching for a thread like this and was just going to start a new one so figured I would bump this! we were totally lost at what to get our parents and then we had an idea this weekend. My parents have been wanting a two man kayak for awhile now for at their lakehouse and FI's parents are in the process of having a lakehouse built right now as well and have also mentioned wanting a kayak or a canoe for out there. Sooo we are going to get them each a 2 man kayak Kinda goes with the beach theme and its something we know they both want and will use. Hoping to find them both for under $1500 total.

we are just giving regualar paper bags to the single guys. I know they really would not care for a tote/bag. They wouldnt use it anyways, at least ours wouldn't. I think we will put cigars in their bag, will buy them once we get down there. But everything else will the same as the other bags.

here are mine : 1) Multiple dining options 2) Location -somewhere not alot of our guests had been to make it more appealing 3) Under 18 pricing (i.e kids stay free and teen/child pricing) 4) Weather/humidity - I HATE humid air, so this was important to be in a drier climate 5) 4 or 5 star All inclusive resort

btw my sister lives in saskatoon
