Here's some photos of my trial! I was really happy with it...my MOB came to take photos so we can show them to the stylists down in Punta Cana. I will be wearing my tiara as well but no veil. What do you think?

It's beautiful there and the WC is very much on top of things and always answers my emails quickly!!. Ill post a review when I come back. I have in attendance 34 people...so we shall see : ) Good luck with everything! You must be super pumped! Can't wait to hear you're review when you get back...we leave for the Gran Bahia in 3 weeks!

For Toronto Brides...really the best place is to order through Oriental Trading Company...their shipping is pretty costly but if you have friends or family in the states you could do it that way too! I love you programs...congrats on checking another thing off of the list!

Just did a trial run with my sand last night and it worked! I used address labels stuck together in a line to cover the slots on either side. I used wellbond glue for mine!

I've got one set aside to bring along with some other goodies/projects as well. I can't believe I'm less then one month away!! Too crazy!! See you tomorrow night!!

hurts: cardio circuits

We got the Blissful love package...I've been told by others don't upgrade to the Unforgettable because you don't really get too much more for your money. The special surprises didn't really happen and the spa discounts is not on hair or makeup. Have you been talking with Ana? She's great to communicate with...we chose the Gazebo (the white concrete one), sashes are included at that location. Any other questions...don't hesitate to ask!

Looking forward to it ladies!!

Just received the dress and it fits!!!! Thanks so much!!!! I just tried it on and my FI said it was definitely hot!!! Thanks again...oh and the purse is perfect too!

I had my BD pics done by a man anad they turned out amazing! He was super great and really encouraging! He was respectful when I was doing my changes and the hair and make-up girl was in the room along with his female assistant throughout the whole shoot. I was a little aprehensive but I think I would have been with a lady shooting as well! It's just not something you do all that often...here are a couple of the shoots he took...can't wait to give the book to him!!
