EDRBride2009

Ladies, I had my 1st dress fitting yesterday and I'm happy to report that the back cleavage is gone!!! Yay!!

did P90X legs and back, then 35 minutes on the stationary bike

Happy wedding! We'll be waiting for the review - and, of course, the pictures - when you get back!

umm, guys, where did Meg&Shay go?

I am also planning my wedding at EDR. So far the planning has gone very smoothly. Valeria is very prompt and helpful. While I have never been to EDR, we stayed at the El Dorado Seaside Suites in January and if it's anything like that, you will not be disappointed!

We booked Citlalli for our wedding through the resort. I have been trying to get a hold of Claudia in regards to a TTD session. At first she was very responsive, but then the whole swine flu drama happened. She told me she was trying to reschedule some brides, etc, but would get back to me. I have tried to contact her a few times in the last few weeks with no results. I'm getting alittle worried

Erica, I had no idea about the accident! Hope you're doing ok! Keep smilin' and know your BDW'ers will be there for you when you need us!

I am the safety coordinator (aka, the Safety Bitch) for an oilfield and industrial supply company.

I spent all afternoon hoping none of my guests watch the news today. I get enough grief about swine flu and drug violence!

Don't forget about brandynd's sand colored starfish. So far I seem to be the only one sharing it

brandynd

My sand colored starfish is making his first journey on November 26th...Woo hoo!

1.) EDRBride-November 26th

I am getting married at the El Dorado Royale. It is owned by the same company that owns the Azul resorts. The El Dorado resorts are adult only. I have never been to the Royale but FI and I went to Mexico in January and stayed at the El Dorado Seaside - we actually got engaged there. It was the beautiful resort and fantastic service that made us pick another Karisma resort for our wedding.

I originally wanted my wedding there, but they pushed back the grand opening until November, and I wasn't willing to take the chances. It looks amazing though.

My FI gagged when I showed him. Gross!! But hilarious

I fell off the wagon but I'm gonna start back up today. I'm gonna add an extra week in as punishment

Wow! That's totally us! I find myself starting a lot of sentences like "This one girl on the forum,". Most of my friends have been married (or divorced, some even remarried) forever, and none of them share my wedding enthusiasm. However, I know that when I find the perfect shoe or a great deal on wedding favors, you guys will be truly excited for me!!!

I was originally planning on doing this but changed my mind. Thanks for changing it back! Your book looks great!

My RSVP deadline was yesterday, and I have about 10 people who are still deciding. Mostly aunts and uncles. Immediate families are all booked and paid for!! After all my TA drama, I'm glad that part's over!

Every Sunday morning I check the site for the new Sunday secrets. I love them

there is still another topaz starfish going around, and I think there's a white one too

I did this on my RSVP cards. When I was telling my friend about this, her comment was "Who would be that stupid to send it back blank." The first RSVP card I got back was blank...

I am doing the P90X workout and I find the best thing about it is that I can yell all sorts of obscene things at Tony, and he just keeps on motivating me! It's great!
