Jess

I used gray and yellow as my colors and my theme was lovebirds

no prob - the town is sooo much fun

are you getting married on the beach? I'd do flip flops if so. My hubby wore chucks (converse) but we had a Church wedding

Hey honestly I wouldn't do it. I think it is a little tacky to make them pay to get to the marina to go to your wedding. I would just try cutting some costs to get that extra $360 - in the grand scheme of things it really isn't too much to save you know?

Our trash the dress was sooooo much fun!!! It was in Sayulita - about an hour away from downtown PV. They have the beach, an old Mexican village sort of town, horses, cobblestone streets - it was great! Check out the last link in my siggy "trash the dress teasers" for some pictures

haaaaaaaaaaaa look at those sexy clear heels she is wearing on top of it all

she did an awesome job!

Does anyone know? I am so excited because the work they have done on past weddings has been incredible. On this thread I have seen Jess's wedding and Lori's weddings and both of your weddings were gorgeous! Such an inspiration for mine so thanks for posting your photos!! no fee! aww thanks for the compliments...they did an amazing job.

Or do they keep you updated as they plan? As much as I want to turn over my planning to them, I feel like part of the fun of being engaged is being involved in the planning of the wedding. I'm scheduled to speak to one of the coordinators next week, and I want to adjust my expectations accordingly.... yeah, you can be as into it or as out of it as you want. I wanted a lot of surprises so I didn't really get too much into it other than my inspiration board. I really didn't want to get stressed out and this worked great for me. they are amazing with everything they do so do let them take the reins on some things! The surprises and details are definitely worth it.

we didn't want to include too much info where they wouldn't even read it so we kept it simple - regular invitation, reception card, and rsvp card...then we just put on the reception card - for more information visit our website at www....

H I love all your gossip articles haha no prob dress works too

other than that - Vienna's gross

hmm I wonder if she will come back and say that she "quit her job"

I totally agree on Ali wanting to be the next Bachelorette

I'm not sure about the surf in Huatulco but around Puerto Vallarta has great surf - Sayulita, a famous surf town is about an hour from downtown PV

Honestly, I think it is set up that Ali has to leave for her job. To go on the show she had to tell her job what was going on, they either agreed to keep her on or not at that point - it sounds a little to much like Ed from last season. I think it is all for the show.

it turned out great!!!

congrats ladies!!!

thats a tough call as it is based on the group you are inviting- but we have about 50% come from our list

my guests all raved about the poblano soup as an appetizer

oh and IMO Gretchen is right about Lynne - worst mom ever.

Love this show!! Simon is the worst, he was such a female on the last episode. I really respect Vickie for her drive, she is a little nuts, but I definitely respect her...and the women who say their jobs are "stay at home moms"...that is great if they really were, but they have nanny's who do all the hard work! I wouldn't call that a "stay at home mom" so they aren't getting any props from me for that.

great pictures!

haha wonky - good explanation

I would like Ali a lot if she stopped obsessing over her. Ok there are my two cents...and because of that I'm voting for Tenley - I think she is good for him.
