**~Jenn~**

Great review! You made me wish I was there all over again :-( hahaha We had the same problem with our guests rooms not being ready. I am glad you had a great time & I LOVE your pics!

LOL! i was huffing and puffing pretty embarassingly at times ... need to do something about that! having curves is one thing, but being so out of shape that you're panting like a dog is another. Welcome back honeymooner!! How was Ireland?

Hmmm...It depends on how fast you walk..LOL If you are renting the sound system, I can tell you not to worry too much. Your WC is in constant contact with the sound guy. She tells him when it's time to change the music and etc.

OMG I can't believe I forgot about that horrifying outfit he wore at the Rose ceremony!! If him not being able to get it up didn't do it, then that outfit should have been the deal breaker....LOL It was so horrible..LOL

There is a "Computer Room" near the front desk. You get 15 minutes of Free internet per day on that. Not sure what you pay after that. I brought my lap top and then I bought a prepaid card at the front desk. For 24 hours I paid $15. However, if you log off after each use, it stops the clock. I bought the card on Wednesday and still had hours left by the time I left. It was really easy. I think it's $65.00 for the whole week. :-)

This reporter writes a recap every week and I laugh the whole time. I swear they say what I am thinking. Here is the link it you'd like to read it ?Bachelorette? Jillian fails to get rise out of Ed - msnbc.com

What did you guys think of tonight's episode?? I think she should have kept Reid! :-( I was an Ed fan until yesterday. He just wasn't doing it for me (And apparently not for her eitehr..LOL) Poor Reid! :-( Quote: Originally Posted by MarieSam Ok I haven't really watched the show this season but I did catch a glimpse of it while my mom was watching -- WTF with Ed? My mom seems to think he had a "dysfunction" moment And by the vagueness of what "didn't" happen between them, I'd have to agree with her!!!! But would they seriously put someone on blast like that on national tv? If so, Good Lord, how freakin embarassing!!! Oh I DEF think he had "Issues" that didn't arrise..LOL They did a nice job of going around the subject..But at the end of the day....This would have been his first time with a women he "Supposedly" loves...I doubt Sunburn is going to stop him. It had to be something else. I don't care how they sugar coated it...I am convinced that's what happened. Maybe the cameras being there messed with his head. Quote: Originally Posted by Alyssa Do you really think she has sex with all 3 of them in the fantasy suites? that is disturbing!!! I think it's gross as well, however...If the Bachelors can do it....Then so be it..LOL She is looking to marry someone and I guess she has to see if all is well in that department. On the other hand, if that was truly the case, she would have let Ed go. Quote: Originally Posted by jetsbride I am super sad that she let Reid go, i thought he was the best! Now I guess I will just keep watching but I am not really routing for anyone. Kiptyn doesn't seem like he is ready for marriage and Ed already left once, whos to say he wouldn't do it again. Is was sweet of him to fly his parents out though. Oh, did anyone else notice Ed's terrible short green shorts? they were shorter then Jillians skirt!!! I feel the same way as you, I am not really routing for anyone..although I did like Kypton a little more after this Episode. I was hoping she would change her mind and have them call Reid back and say Bye Bye to Ed..:-) As for his Green shorts...OMG! They were Horrifying!! To his defense though, I think that was his Bathing Suit, But even still...They were waaaayyyy too short. I am actually looking forward to the tell all episode, even though I could care less about Molly and stupid Jason. :-0)

Quote: Originally Posted by MissBlade I didn't read through all of the posts, but am I the only one who thinks that Kate is a total Beotch? I don't know any man that could put up with that for a life time! I've watched the show from the beginning and at first it was funny...the yelling in the toy store, the "love" slaps... But after a while it was just like, geeze; give the poor guy a break. I normally don't like to pass judgement on people cause our lives are all complicated and I'm sure I wouldn't look like an angel on TV, BUT, when you invite the world into your home, that's what happens! I agree to a point. She had no right to treat him that way. On the other hand, He should have stood up for himself and put her in her place instead of being a coward and taking the abuse. He's standing up for himself now and obviously had it in him. Quote: Originally Posted by courtney_b00 I agree....I mean the show was funny at first but then after awhile it's like come on?? That is not a healthy relationship when you are treating the other person that way!! Yeah the show is just sad now...But I think alot of it could have been avoided if they didn't let it all go to their heads. Quote: Originally Posted by Christine wow that is pretty low in my opinion. I really don't like Jon at all anymore...I am on Kate's side in the divorce. I hope she is able to meet someone else in the future who will be a man for her. I actually don't like Jon anymore either. I think he became a whiney baby. The attention was ok when they first started this show and the money was rolling in. Now, 4 years later, they have lots of money and he just can't take the attention anymore. He wouldn't have got to do half the things he has done without this show. I do agree that it's time to end the show, it was actually time last season, but he is stupid to keep whining about how he hates all the attention, meanwhile he living in a million dollar house. Give me a break. I feel so bad for those kids, and I actually feel bad for Kate. I blame her for not seeing how she was treating him and I blame her for not seeing that it was time to end the show, but at the end of the day, She is just a wife, whose husband cheated and made her feel like an ass. :-(

Well for those who don't have the live feed or read the updates...There was more to why he put Lydia up. They all think that she is this strong competitor and a threat to their game. However...I don't know how they can know that this early in the game. Her team won just one challange so far. The Veto has been played and I know the winner & what not, although I won't place any spoilers here. Feel free to PM me :-) As for Jesse, KLee147...He had a crush on Angie last season, but Michelle was his his BFF on the show. I can't stand him, but he is making me laugh this season. I will hate him again next week when he's not in power. He was always most annoying when he was on the block. And let me tell you that whoever wins HOH (if they are not an athlete) they would be stupid to not nominate him. Ronnie is everywhere and everyone is starting to notice. He's in every conversation and every room. If he doesn't back off, he may be the next to go. :-)

My Ring Bearer was 2 (Just about 3) and my Flower girl ahd just turned 2. The Ring bearer wouldn't walk down unless his mom was with him, so I told her just to walk with him and my Flower girl was THRILLED to go down that isle. She loved throwing the flowers out of the basket and all the attention. She was a holy terror however, while we were getting married..LOL She wanted to stay up in the Gazebo. I didn't mind, I was actually laughing alot, but it's something to keep in mind with kids that young.

Sure...here you go: http://bestdestinationwedding.com/forum/t45063 And in case you interested , here is the link to my Wedding review http://bestdestinationwedding.com/forum/t45066

The Photo package that comes with the Ultimate Wedding Package is for One hour with the Photographer. It's Basically for your whole ceremony and then pictures of you, your fame and DH afterwards. I'm sure if you wanted something different that you could use that hour as you please, but you would have to talk to your WC about that. We used the Photog that comes with the package and we were VERY happy with him. He was with us for way more then an hour. In addition to that you get 50 printed pics in a leather photo album & a CD of those 50 pictures. He will give you the option to buy ALL the pics he took that day. He took 602 pictures and we bought the CD for $350 Good luck :-)

Yes, BB After Dark starts tonight and doesnt end until September!! So tonight starts my really late tv nights (Actually i DVR after dark, so if I fall asleep, I'll watch it after work the next day..LOL) What did everyone think of the show tonight?? I knew about the mystery house guest and I know who won, I just wasn't sure if I should believe it (& Frankly, I didn't want to believe it!) All in All I kind like the cast so far. The Off Beats are definitely my favorites :-) I can't wait until it really gets started! They have already been in the house for ike 4 days, so after dark should be interesting tonight to see who made friends & etc...

That is an awesome deal for Showtime!! I gotta say, most nights, Afterdark is boring..However..the season that BB was in the winter I think....I was watching it when Josh and Amanda had that big fight and he was being a reall A$$hole. That was an awesome night!! I am really excited for tonight. I can't believe any of the spoilers that I am reading about the mystery guest, because I think the Past BB contestants are planting seeds in everyone's head and messing with us..LOL So I am going to wait & see before I start believe them. Oh & the Blonde girl who hooked up with Eric is Jessica! I could not think of her name. :-) YAY! Can't wait for tonight!

Good luck Cassandra!! I wish you all the best. Have a Fabulous time! I wish I could go with you...I already want to go back :-(

I love this thread, But Everytime I try to write a thread, my mind goes blank! I will try again :-) WHAT I WOULD DO AGAIN: -Marry DH :-) -Have a Destination Wedding @ Dreams Cancun -Invite everyone. In the end less then half came, but everyone felt included. -Ordered my Real touch Bouquets & Etc. From Plumerias. They were so Fabulous and looked great in all of my pictures. It was nice to not have to worry about what my flowers would like like the day of the Wedding. And Now I can keep my Bouquet forever! Roberta from Plumeria was fabulous to work with and I would def use her again adn recommend her (I actually already did) -Not ask to be upgraded. Our Suite was really nice and we liked being in the same building as everyone else. Sure it would have felt more "honeymoon like" in the Tower with the other Newlyweds, but we enjoyed being near everyone and liked watching the Dolphins in the morning -Make OOT bags. Different people used different things, and while I admit some things never got used, Everyone appreciated them and thought it was nice to come to a Wedding and get a gift! :-) Although I was really excited about the personalized Koozies and no one used them or really mentioned them :-( lol -Pack the nessasary amount of clothes (with just a couple small extras) We didn't have much Suit Case room for our clothes anyway..But in the end, we both didn't over pack and everything was worn :-) -Take my Destination Wedding dress back to the store and buy my Dream dress!! I loved my dress so much. And yes I was really hot in it...But I was so sad to take it off at the end of the night. It was the dress I have dreamed of and was just perfect! -Use the Resort Photographer!!! I had heard So-So things about Juan Navarro and I was really bummed when I realized we couldn't afford the Photog I put a deposit down on. We were pleasantly surprised and I smile everytime I look at my pictures! -Keep the Cocktail hour. I thought about getting rid of it, and putting that credit towards something else, but in the end, my guests had a good time and beacuse we took a while taking pictures, it was nice that they had a place to chill out. They also loved the Mariachi Trio. We didn't get to see them, which stinks, but my guests loved them. WHAT I WOULDN'T DO AGAIN: -Stress over the little stuff, like DIY projects. I think the things that we do for our guests are nice and will be appreciated no matter what they look like. So to stress about the tiniest details seem silly to me, now!! LOL -Use my iPod Docking station. In the end, Our money got tight and we couldn't even affiord to rent the sound system. We brought our own docking station and no one really danced We did our dance, and the Mother/Son dance. My bridesmaids got some people up when it was time for the Electric slide & Cupid shuffle, but for the most part, no one danced and that is the only thing that upset me. Time went by really quick though, so no one seemed bored, but I just wanted to dance the whole night and it didn';t happen. I think if I had a DJ, or even the guy who came with the sound system, things would have been different. -I wouldn't have planned a traditional Wedding first and waste 6 months of what could have been my DW planning!! If I would have had those 6 months, I would have had more people come, I think and more money to get the small things that I had to give up. -Greeted everyone. I tried to greet everyone and then take their OOT bags to their rooms once they finally got checked in. But this was really time consuming, so basically Saturday -Tuesday were not relaxing days. -Scheduled our couples massage for the Wedding day. It was relaxing & nice, but I think if we would have went Thursday morning, it would have been nicer. My Bridesmaids spent the day getting ready together and hanging out and I wish I would have did that with them. It was a last minute decision I would not make again. -I wouldn't have used real candles for my Center pieces. I was originally going to use Flora lights, but time and money got away from me, and ended up using candles. Well they didn't stay lit at ALL. The wind wasn't really that bad, but we were too close to the Ocean I think. We had plenty of light, but I really worked hard on getting those center pieces together and I wanted them to be glowing -I wouldn't have had my Welcome/Rehearsal Dinner at the Mexican Fiesta on the beach. It seemed like it was going to be great, but in the end, we all couldn't sit together and I didn't even get to say my little Thank You speech that I had planned. Since everyone at the resort wanted to be at the Mexican Fiesta (it seemed), that would have been a good night to get a big table at the Oceana or something. We may have all been at seperate tables, but it would have been more intimate. Instead I feel like I made everyone come to this dinner for nothing. -I would have had the videographer put our First dance song on our DVD. I love our Video, but having that song on there would have made it that much better. -I wish I would have taken some cake back to our room. I LOVED it (Tres Leches) and the rest of my time there, It's all I wanted!! -I wish I would have relaxed a little more. I didn't truly relax until the days after the Wedding and then we had to leave 2 days later **I'm sure I can think of more things that I would and wouldn't do again, but all in all I am so happy. My Destination Wedding was all that I wanted & more. The little details don't matter. Relax, enjoy your DH and your family & friends that came to share your day!!****

Yes she is Prego. I think she is like 5 or 6 months...Not sure The house is pretty awesome this year. Big Brother goes green :-)

I use Jokersupdates every year and let me tell you, you don't need the live feeds because they have people who stay up all night and just let you know EXACTLY what is going on! I usually read it all at once and then watch after dark...LOL Quote: Originally Posted by msemi305 Hey Ladies - 2 more nights ( well 1 more if your not counting tonight) I am so excited...I have been on the cbs websight to see who the house guests are.... any early predictions ?? Well...I have heard TONS of spoliers....I won't post them here, but let's just say if they are correct, I am going to be a little bit P.O.'d :-) So far, just from pre show interviews, I really like Lydia, she is the tattoo chick. And I dislike the Muscle guy. He seems like a meathead..LOL One more night!! :-) (I really need a new summer hobby..LOL)

Def ask for double or triple shots, however...Get to know your bartenders, treat them well & they will get to know you. Believe me, you won't need to ASK for doubles & triples, they will just give it to you :-)

Quote: Originally Posted by Cassondra2009 The bar in the Lobby is the Rendezvous Bar, right? I think thats that same bar that people recommended for my Welcome Drinks. I thought there was a bar right near the Club terrace for some reason. The Bar I was referring to is in the Lobby of the Tower. Right where the Club Terrace is. It's directly trhough the doors and would probably be a great place for drinks before the reception :-) The Rendevous bar is in the Main lobby (near the front desk & Etc..) We loved it there and often wound up back there every night just to chat & drink. They had a a really good singer in there most nights.

Aghh...I gotta bump this, Because my Big Brother-Itis is getting the best of me..LOL I am way too addicted to this show. I am debating on getting the live feeds. I already watch BB after Dark on Showtime though....Hmmmm Anyway getting the Feeds??

Yes, I was thinking 4pm...I wasn't sure if that was the time that was good for everyone, but if it is, I am ok with 4pm :-)

I agree 100% with Danielle. I know how stressfull the last month before the Wedding is..Believe me, I have been there recently. I didn't realize exactly how stressed I was, until I got to Mexico and I let myself relax. Then it was like, "Wow I was uptight!" I know that if your a perfectionist, this is a big deal to you, but Honestly...No one is going to care. As a matter of fact, I bet if you gave them out just the way they are, they would still love them and think it was a really creative thing you did. I am not artistic or crafty, but all of my DIY were a big hit with my family & friends. Even the stuff I knew didn't look great. I glued a Starfish poem to all of our Rafia Fans that we placed on everyon's chairs at the ceremony, and as we were glueing the poem on, we realized that I mispelled "Means" (Menas)..I said F-it as it was too late to get more at that point, and no one even noticed. Everyone was so impressed with the amount of work we put into it, that's all they could talk about. (& still do) After all this, you will really look back on this moment and think, OMG, that was so not important. until then, I know how you feel. Try to take a deep breath and relax. Your going to be married and have the time of your life really soon! :-) And it was really sweet of your FI to want to help. But they really don't have the same common sense as us, do they!! LOL

Well she blogged about Wes and keeping him so long..I found it on People.com It's interesting..Although I can't wait to hear what she says at the tell all :-) Bachelorette’s Blog: I Kept Wes ‘Way Too Long’ - PEOPLE TV Watch

Hey Everyone!!! I am excited for Saturday. Did we ever pick a time? And do we have a final head count? Kathleen, I have your Starfish all ready to go. Also...Should we meet out in front of the restaurant? If your in for Saturday, just post here so we all know who is DEF in :-) Right now, I know that Lisa(mummergirl), Kathleen (KathleenandDan) & Me(PhillyBride09) are definites. I think Danielle(Danielle&Derek) may be a definite as well. But since it's in a couple days, lets see whose still coming :-) Can't wait to see you all! & Can;t wait for Famous Dave's....LOL Yum!!
