YAY great pics!!! Ur dress is so pretty!!! Everything looks so fun!

I totally had this fear!!!! But in the end everyone danced!! We had like 33 guests. I think the key is what Kate mentioned that YOU need to be out there dancing! Also pic songs that you love and some that go across all genres. When we played some Beatles and more "oldie" type music EVERYONE was on the dance floor! We had Lady Gaga "just dance" to get the party started and it really worked

I just honeymooned at the Ritz last month and the resort is GORGEOUS!!! Its also super private. I havent been to the Marriot but the Ritz has what you described!

We sent out an email STD with all the info and also had it on our website - we used eweddings.com - LOVED it!!!

I really wanted to hear from them. Also i REALLY wanted to see katie and josh perform - i think they are my all time faves and they were in the audience but we got nothing...it was such a tease!

So awesome! I especially loved the Wade R. routine. I was kind of shocked at the girl that went home, but not so much at the boy. I CAN'T BELIEVE EVAN WON'T GO AWAY! WTF?!? Does he have a whole army voting for him or something?! Dammit. So annoying. If he wins I will punch the tv. You pretty much summed up every thign i wanted to say! I FACKING hate Evan and Im very close to boycotting the show cuz he wasnt even in the bottom! At least my girl Jenine is still there

woohoo!! Welcome back and cant wait to hear more and see pics!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Congrats!!!!

Ya thank god for DVR - seriously how did we watch tv before this invention?? Kathy - ya i watch all those too + how i met your mother, new adventures, im now addicted to rescue me. Well since DH is getting his MBA ill have lots of tv time to myself!

Congrats!!!! You look amazing!!!! I like the shower pics - thanks for posting!!

Rachel - I agree!! But isnt the next season starting up in the fall? OMG I have so much tv to watch in the fall its disgusting

That was great!!! You can always do something like that when you get introduced to teh reception if you are worried about doing it for the ceremony - but that was SO fun!!

We chose Friday since we figured most ppl would probably fly back home on a Sunday and it gives them sat to hang out and relax.

Ana - those pictures are truly STUNNING!! You both need to be models Juan Carlos did such an amazing job and it was def worth the wait!! I loved all of them!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Erin - GREAT recap - i pretty much agree with everything you said!! Ya the Ade/Melissa breast cancer dance was freakn amazing - and i was thinking OMG if Evan and Janette got this it would BLOW - Ade/Melissa were perfect for it and it was really really powerful! I really hope Jeanine doesnt go - she is my fave right now I want Evan to LEAVE - he is so boring for me and i swear he wears the same facking outfit for all his solos...blah. Im kinda over Janette and Im liking Kayla more these days. I think she did really well in the Broadway routine Oh and i HEART travis as a choreographer - they need to make him a regular!

woohoo that is so exciting!!!! Cant wait to hear all about it and see pics when you get back

w00t only a few more hours!! And tonight is suppose to be a good one

I have to admit i failed miserably on this diet - i only lasted 2.5 days but did lose some weight (3 pounds) Im super impressed with everyone that sticks it through!!!!
