Hi Kelli! Congratulations and welcome to the forum!! There is a ton of information here...I would definitely check out the cruise section under travel to start with. Happy planning

Hi Michelle - as you know we are having our DW at Beaches T&C in May and the government fees are covered. I have no idea why they would tell you that unless you moving the reservation somehow takes away from their commission from the reservation. But regardless, giving you false information is not cool. Yes, Beaches T&C is more expensive than many other resorts. T&C is just expensive in general...it's a newer destination island....if I remember right, tourists just started visiting in the mid to late 80's. But from everything I've read and heard from others that have been there, it's going to be worth it Our reservation is for one week, in the Honeymoon Grande Lux King room, and I think our reservation is right about $4k (for 3 of us) if I remember right...so about $2k per person. I think if we booked it for just the 2 of us it was about $3,500. And yes, you could do a 2 week cruise for the same amount (we usually cruise once a year and always get a balcony cabin and for the 3 of us it's usually just under $2k), but it depends on the experience you want for your wedding. If you really think the cost is too high then it's not too late to cancel your reservation and book a different trip. You should never feel forced to stick with something you aren't comfortable with. Also - it's not too late for you to switch TA's....if you do decide you want to stay at Beaches, maybe try reaching out to TA Jennifer and see what's involved with transfering your reservation. I know it can be done, but she could better explain what needs to happen. Good luck with whatever you decide

happy : smile

If you go to the site below you can find out the historical average weather details for any location on any date. Hope this helps History : Weather Underground

I think you can definitely do it. There are lots of brides on here who have planned their DW in about 6 months. I think a lot of it just depends on how fixated you are on a particular date, resort, dress, etc. If you are open to considering different options, I think you'll have many more options available to you.

Thanks for sharing your experience Ang! It seems like there are a lot of mixed reviews with this company so it definitely helps to hear more opinions. Because I need to order a small quantity, and this is one of the few companies that has low minimums, it's probably who I will use when I order our travel mugs.

FI loves my curves, and obviously doesn't care if I lose weight or not because he's great at bringing home things like ice cream for me. When I say *great* I'm being sarcastic, lol. It's frustrating because he knows I want to lose weight but he doesn't seem to think it's a priority. But if I want to the gym, he'll help me find time to do that...so I've got some very mixed signals going, lol.

I love the elliptical but can't do the treadmill...I'm just not a runner. I get shin splints I know this may sound lame and something that only old ladies do, but I really want to try aqua aerobics.

Your pictures are fabulous and you look absolutely gorgeous...beautiful dress too!! Congrats!!

I have to agree with the other ladies...my vote is to have here there. I'll give you the edited reason why I feel this way....My original wedding date was 5/5/10, but my mother was diagnosed with cancer in Feb...her condition declined very rapidly and she passed away in June. When my wedding day comes, there will be an emptiness by her not being there. Just be thankful that your mother is still alive and can travel for your big day. I think it's generous that your brother has offered to pay for her to be there, and I'm sure family and friends will make sure that she is safe and well cared for while at the resort. It may seem like a hassle, but trust me, when it's all over and you look back on your wedding day, I think you'll have some very happy memories of her there with you.

PMS : don't have right now

Those were the same 2 colors I was looking at V! I'm leaning just a little more towards the English beige. I think you may be right about the pink undertones.....

menst. cycle : bitchy

jumping jacks : hurts my boobs...LOL
