I LOVE IT!!! How fun & exciting!!1

LOVE THEM!!! You all look beautiful!

I'm sure you've found something by now...but I just wanted to post this pic for anyone else who might be looking at this thread for a non-beach alternative. We are getting married here...its the RIU Bachata in Puerto Plata...I think it's stunning!!!

to the forum Claudette!! You are right...it's all about marrying the man of your dreams! Everything will fall into place! Happy Planning!!!

Welcome to the forum fellow Canadian!! Happy Planning!!

Hope you have a great moving day and you don't exhuast yourself too much!! Don't forget to relax at the end of the night! Have a glass of wine & just sit for a while...whether there are boxes everywhere or not!

How did I miss this in all my internet browsing!!?? Oh well...too late now I guess!!

I've gotten used to it now, but I felt so bad I couldn't tell FI that I wanted to take it back! I am the opposite...I loved my e-ring at first. Now I dont' really care for it! It looks more like a fancy wedding band! I picked it out originally because I thought if I had to hold out for the one I wanted I would never get it!! To give the background...FI did an impromptu proposal without a ring so we went ring shopping together after the fact. It had been 3 months after the proposal and I still didn't have a ring. I found a beautiful ring in a store, it fit so I walked out with it on my finger! I love the ring still...I just wish I had something more (maybe that's selfish!). To top it off it is an odd shape & requires a custom wedding band. Well, because we are buying a house (our first house!) so close to the wedding date we cannot afford to get a custom one made. The plan is to get a simple, plain wedding band for the time being & get my custom band for our first year anniversary. Sure...no prob. But is it even worth getting the custom one done if I don't really care for the ring anymore? I did pick out an amazing band by the way though. It is a sapphire & diamond for only $300!! All stones are recessed in the band and it is very sparkly!! The stones are only tiny, but I love the sapphires! Not exactly plain one like we originally planned, but it will look great as just a ring on another finger if we decide to do the custom thing! I would never tell FI any of this...but it feels good to actually get it off my chest! I have never even told my MOH or mom this!! PS. I'm sorry this is kind of petty when there are people with so much worse problems going on in their lives.

These are my favorite!!! And I don't think the multi is tacky - it's fun & beachy!!! Go for it! I'm sure the girls here will snatch up the other ones before you can say "for sale!"!!

Great job!! I love them!!

Great job!!

HAPPY WEDDING DAY!

They are both really nice!! Just a thought...why don't you use all three!! One for your side, one for FI's side & then one for friends! (That's the indecisiveness coming out in me!) Edit: I'm rethinking that now...I just remembered they are all different sizes. Like kids, you wouldn't want the in laws thinking they were getting less than your side (or vise versa!).

Great pics!!! Looks like a fun party!!! All sorts of characters attended!!

I think a favor at the AHR would be more than sufficient!!! I would either send out a pic announcement after you get back...or do a picture frame for the AHR. Nothing more!

Maybe we should form a support group!! Hello, my name is Amanda & I'm a BDW forum addict!!

Perfect!! As previously stated I LOVE Vistaprint!! I even ordered our regular, everyday return address labels with a pic of our puppy on them!! They are adorable!!!

LOL...you sound about as indecisive as me!! I stick with the majority & say use the ones you want!! Oh and yeah...hello...pictures!!!

Great job!!! They look perfect!! Don't you just love Vistaprint!! I get my address labels there..it's where I got my invitations!! And I will be getting my TY cards there too!! I think I"m addicted!! lol

to the forum!! It looks like you will get your DT wedding afterall!!

HAPPY WEDDING DAY Can't wait to hear all about it when you get back!!!

Thanks for bumping Erin!! I know I'm a BDW addict!! Since I joined about a month and a half ago I am almost at Senior Member!! My efficiency at work is for real down about 50%...and I sometimes say to myself "I think I have a problem!".

They are beautiful! I love them!!
