They look great! I love vistaprint! We're doing the same thing & sending with luggage tags about a month before we leave. Now I have to find more luggage tags

Thanks for posting the song titles! I knew quando... but I had no idea that last one was Mana!

Oh wow, I am so so sorry to hear you're going through this! I know the emails look damning & are completely inappropriate, but is there a possibility he's telling you the truth? Have you confronted him about an affair? I totally agree that establishing trust is a really hard thing to do once it's been breached, but it can be done with hard work. That said, he really needs to be willing to do everything he can, starting with being honest, in order to save your relationship. Counseling could be a really good outlet for both of you to try to deal with this. Good luck to you, and when you need to vent we're all here!

I haven't done one, but I know people have used blurb.com, mypublisher.com & shutterfly.com. http://www.blurb.com/ http://www.shutterfly.com/photo-books http://www.mypublisher.com/

Congrats!!! What a great feeling to be booked!! Yay!

I think silver totally works with ivory! My dress is ivory too (though it's pretty hard to tell unless you hold something white up next to it) and I'm going with pearl jewelry that has silver on it. the toggle clasp is silver, as are the little posts that hold the pearls on

We bought these ones (you can pick custom embroidery): Custom Embroidered Guayabera Shirt - 2 Pocket/Classic Cut - Short Sleeves This company has a lot too <title>Penners: Guayaberas, Mexican Shirts, Hawaiian Shirts, and Guayabera Shirts

I've been able to get ties for the guys that match the dresses (so cool!) I'm just not sure what we should put the GM in... I was thinking beige pants and white dress shirts with the ties - but I'm not sure. Would a coloured shirt look better?? I'll post pics of the ties later - I'm at work and don't have a pic here. Beth those dresses are so pretty! Love them! So are the ties that match for the groomsmen? If so I think just a white shirt would look good. If the tie is just for FI & the GM aren't wearing ties, then maybe pick a shirt in one of the greens/blues in the dress.

Do you have other colors in mind for the wedding? Some of the girls here have used gray & yellow or pink/fuchsia and both combos look great! I think aqua would look good too.

Great job! Love the colors! It's definitely a labor of love & takes forever, but doesn't it feel good to have done them yourself?!

Nice! Sounds really pretty!

You have the best of both worlds...sand dollar and starfish =) Do yours fit in the envelope? We needed a good sealer...but they stayed and I only heard of 1 breaking out of 97. So far so good. Thanks! Yeah, they fit in the regular envelope, but just barely! I really had to work on getting them in there after tying the raffia on. Hope all your seals hold up!!

I like #3 (nine west)! silver or gold! What kind of jewelry are you wearing? And what does your dress look like?

Thanks Lauren! Yeah, it seems Dreams has been adding extra costs for people lately (like $100 to add a few chairs during the cocktail hour, seriously?!?) I thought it'd be included since we're renting their DJ anyway, but Rebeca said it's $100 for the dj to do your ceremony music. From what Autumn experienced it sounds like it's really not worth it if he's gonna mess it up anyway!

Welcome to the forum! How nice of you to help out your sis! You'll find tons of helpful info here - be sure to check out the Mexico sub-forums!

Sure thing! Thanks! She was really easy to work with (especially since I knew what I wanted in the earrings) & I received everything pretty quickly. You'll have to post what you end up getting!

Thanks Aut! That's a really good idea! I wonder if one of those Bose stereo/speaker ipod hook-ups would work.
