I am absolutely shocked to hear that they did not come out well. You looked absolutely stunning and even when she showed us the pics on the camera; they looked amazing. You have gorgeous skin so I am not sure what could have happened to make it look bad. I have not received mine yet, but as soon as I do I will let you all know. I am supposed to get them today. Once I get them, if you would like honey ... we can swap passwords for our galleries and compare photos. If we are both or one of us is still unhappy, lets contact Kamila and get this taken care of asap. I will also email the other girls to see if they got their pics back and get their feedback. So far, I know Shawn has not received hers.. I will email Kathy and Kristy. Hang in there, if you need anything or want me to help in any way email me! PS - I agree that black/white can be classy but you had some beautiful color to your outfits; especially that hot little deep blue number ... if you want them in color; maybe ask her? And.. if you aren't comfortable posting them on the forum and want me to take a look let me know, I would be happy to... otherwise, I agree with the other gals - take a 2nd look and if you are comfy post some on here to get 2nd, 3rd and 4th opinions.

We eliminated all that when we created our playlists so there ends up being no space in between the songs. Thank you beachbride08!!!! You are a lifesaver.. I have been trying to figure out how to do this. Between GarageBand and ITunes, I have been driving myself nuts. Who knew it was so simple!

Awww.. that is so cute!!!!!! I love it!

Background: So FI's mom calls me 2 weekends ago and says that one of thier firends was overcharged from the TA. I email the TA and ask if they have heard from so and so. She says they have no record of it. I email so and so and they say oh not that was the price I was quoted from TA's assitant. Basically so and so emailed TA's assitant did not mention our wedding and was quoted a different rate since he did not mention our wedding and did not recieve a quote for the room rate. **NOTE this is now 10 days after the deadline. TA agrees to offer them the lowest rate if they can book today. FI's dad calls and tells me the room rates are better on Orbitz. I call so and so and tell him he can book with TA today for the lower rate but checking orbitz vacation packages he may be able to get a better deal there. So today FI picks up his mom from the airport and she says" so and so had an awful experience with TA and ended up having to book on Orbitz"!!!!!!!!!!!!1 WTF.. what is wrong with people that she got such a DISTORTED version of what actually happened. SEE PEOPLE ARE DUMB Okay, thanks for the rant. I am not trying be crazy, but really, come on dont complain about things when you own stupidity causes it. Erika.. I would react totally the same way. One of my biggest pet peeves is when people are just being dumb!!! Quote: Originally Posted by ~Stephanie~ LOL, the question is... How did you find out!? Start practicing your fake surprise look! I always find out too! My phone died and FI, myself and one of my BM's were emailing while we were on the train on the way to a Yankee game. So, we were both emailing her from FI's phone... Anyway, he picked up an email from her and I looked at his phone thinking that it was a response to our conversation we were all having; but it was about my shower. FI doesn't realize I saw it... and he closed the window really fast once he realized what it was about. He asked me if I saw it and said it was about my wedding gift. I lied and said 'nope, didn't see a thing'. I always, always find out ... I know, I am going to practice in the mirror all week.

Those look great; you did an amazing job!!! Also, we are invite twins!! My actual invites are the same design as yours except different colors!!

I just read through this thread (you are def loved on this forum ... everyone is watching out for you!)!!! I am SO happy for you that you were able to find someone to get this done for free.. Can't wait to see the pics!!!!

WOW Cattie!!!! You look amazing; I am SO glad to hear it went well... Brandi is so nice (as you know, I almost went with her for my BD shoot). FI is going to die .. you sexy, sexy lady!!!

I agree with everyone else.. the first one is SO super flattering on you and I love the detailing!!!!

I think that we are doing beach mats... some people like to just lay in the sand and they are less bulky than a towel to transport. I found some great online deals so they only are about $2 each...

Ooooo... how fun! I LOVE the pinata idea; so cute!! Thanks for sharing!!!

Okay, I have to get this out... I am so thankful I have this forum or I would explode right now!! I can't tell anyone this because it involved my entire BP and FI which basically encompasses all my best friends! I know when my 'surprise' bridal shower is... I feel so bad that I know because everyone (including FI) seems to be so proud of themselves for keeping this a secret from me; especially since I have said many, many times that I did not want/need a bridal shower because everyone is already spending so much $$ to come to the wedding. I wish I could just forget that I know; but I can't. Now I am all worried about how I am going to act surprised!!! They deserve the genuine reaction that they are expecting. ARG !!! Btw, it is this Saturday (April 25th)... Phew, now I feel better (kinda). It helps just to get that out.

I will look back through my emails from her to check to see. Olga (and others if you are interested or didn't know) - Kamila will first send you a link to a password protected online gallery. You will receive a cd with all of your pictures along with your album when that is completed.

Then we're going to have guests sign that book... like a yearbook, on the inside cover or any random page. I think it'll be a great coffee table book that will always remind us of our wedding! That is a GREAT idea... I may be stealing that; it's perfect!! Thanks so much for sharing.

I can't wait to see yours if you don't mind sharing . You looked so gorgeous!!!! I sent Kamila a note this morning and already heard back from her. She said that she is just about finished with mine (OMG.. I cannot wait) and that yours and Shawn's will be finished by Tuesday at the latest !!!

Quote: Originally Posted by blondie25 Shannon, I know she is busy however our group brought her lots of girls and it will be fair to stick to estimated deadline!!! I absolutely agree! If you would like I can shoot her a note and see how she is doing on everything. (I feel kind of responsible for our group; since I found her and put this whole thing together ) Let me know.

Thank you.. thank you.. thank you for sharing!!!! FI loves those for gifts for his GM's.

I definitely think we need to see before we can offer our true opinions I agree... My dress is super sexy with a very deep V and very open back down to my tailbone. It all depends on the fit IMHO. I am a B cup maybe a small C in some things. Also, see how it is once you have it in your size ... Like Carly said, adding a little strip of lace or something underneath should be an easy fix. Let's see the pics!!! (Just bc I love pics!)

OMG .. I LOVE IT!! I want one. =)

Ooohhh !! I am sorry that you couldn't make it work. Now I am nervous that when I go for my alterations that my seamstress will tell me the same thing. I really have my heart set on walking barefoot as well... I agree with Erin that VS has some great ones at a good price; I would also check out Old Navy http://oldnavy.gap.com/browse/produc...052&tid=onfr1r. Here are some that I found on a quick google search: http://www.weddingfactorydirect.com/dabrflfl.html http://www.valubride.com/dabrflfl.html
