Hello, I've started my search for a ivory veil. If anyone is interested in selling one please let me know! Thanks

Are these still available?

Its really pretty! Its the right size. Where did you get it from?

Do you have a picture of the hair flower in your hair? Or up to it? Just so I can see the size : )

I'm so impressed!!!! That looks awesome!!! Nice job!

I would tell your FI that if he wants all the extra's to come to get a second job to pay for them. That it isn't fair to put that finanical burden on your family? Maybe that would help him understand? I don't really know. My FI has none of his friends going. Its sad but at the same time they are alot like how you described your FI's friends so maybe its a good thing ; )

Thanks for your review! I'm so excited I have it booked for our reception as well. The pics look awesome. I'm so happy we picked this option. For the ladies wondering if they should book in advance I would say yes. I took a bit and someone else was interested in my date. Its in April so I would if you want to make sure.

Thank you so much for this info. I'm in burlington. I'm getting married in April and am so lost in this. My WC sent me the wedo info. I still can't decide what is easiest and best. Where do you get all these documents? like the single status affidavit to sign? I'm getting alot of heat from my fiance because he thought it was easier to get married here first. I thought if everyone was paying to come down and see a wedding I want to have it official. Its just all confusing lol

Congrats! Happy planning : )

Congrats! Good luck planning : )

Congrats. Happy planning : )

Congrats! I had the same dilemma. I really wanted Dreams but it was out of the price range for some guests. We are doing it at the Bavaro Princess resort. That way more family can come. Dreams is gorgeous! I sometimes wish I did it there but I'm sure anywhere in Punta Cana will be great!

I just sent you a pm : )

Congrats! you must be so excited : )

Congrats! good luck with the planning!

Congrats! I'm a April bride as well : )

Congrats! I'm a April bride as well : )

I guess I have to read the whole thread because how can you be upset with someone for being pregnant? I guess it can go two ways. Maybe she is not being supportive about your wedding but now your not being supportive of her pregnancy. I would assume she came out running happy because miscarriages are devastating. She went through something horrible and is probably happy. Maybe in a nice way say it might be easier for her not to be in the wedding party? That way its not as much pressure on you. Thats the hard part about destination weddings. Not everyone can make it for personal reasons. My best friend just got married. She told me they are trying to get pregnant so we thought it was best for her to not be in the wedding party. My wedding is in April as well. If she doesn't then I will try and add her in later. I'm sure alot of the focus will be on her. She is having their grandchild. I don't think she got pregnant to ruin your wedding. As long as you and your soon to be hubby are there I'm sure it will be perfect! Try not to stress... Its so hard not to tho : )

WOW the are so great. I have to admit I saw a post before and you had mentioned the bud light bottles. I stole your idea. I also live close to the water so I might steal some sand. I thought I only wanted to do white sand but yours are perfect! Also thanks for the advice on the tea. I was soaking for a minute and letting them air dry. I could not figure out why it was not dark enough. How much approx is it to ship? I will only have around 25. I may hand deliver if its alot. Thanks for posting you did a great job!

My daughter will be 3. I will have her as the flower girl. My son will be 15 months. I am having him be the ring bearer but my brother who is 12 will be walking with him as a shared duty. More to help him. Im sure it wont' go perfect but will be cute no matter what.

Wow I see I'm not alone. My FMIL is the devil. I know that sounds evil but its true. Okay maybe not that extreme but she has been so evil to me. In her defense the last year or so she has been ALOT better but still compares to the stories on here. Okay here goes. My fiance and I have two kids together. Sure we could/should have got married first but it was not a priority to us. My FMIL whet balistic with my daughter. Started freaking out comparing it to his brothers death ( he passed away when my fiance was two) and said the most hurtful things ever. "I will never by it diapers" I will never by it clothes and so on. The evil comments came my whole pregnancy. We never asked her for a dime. We started out in such a small place. We were so proud of the room we decorated for her. We picked out this nice pink and it was so pretty. He was so proud to make it nice. He was so excited to show her. She walks in and was like " I hate the colour its tacky. I hope its a boy cuz you would have wasted your time." He was crushed I had a long labour and the whole time in the delivery room she would make comments like " well I have 50 000 saved but he doesn't need a wedding now so I will spend it all on me" Her fav saying is "its all about me" believe me it is. She made the happiest day of my life horrible. She sat there made hurtful comments to my family ( even FI dad side hates her) I had a c section. She actually pushed my mother out of the way and stormed in the recovery room where she was not allowed and grabbed my baby. You know "it" who she would never do anything for. A week later she shows up to my house and says Its time for my one on one time with her. I being way to nice and trying to get along said ok you can take her for a walk but its very hot out so only for 20 minutes. Four hours later she showed up with my newborn screaming and hot. I was freaking crying and having a nervous break down ( she turned the cell off) My daughter was breastfed and starving. After that day she was no longer to have her alone. I don't think I'm mean for that. Still to this day I'm so angry I did not call the police on her. It just got better. Two weeks after having her she took his ex out for dinner. ( She still had framed pics of her too) I later found out she talked bad about me the whole time since we have mutual friends. ( his ex was a total insane/drug addict) A few months later my daughters first xmas was coming up. We were so excited because he was getting a savings bond from when he was little. He needed her to sign the back. She actually stole it. Not lying took the money ( close to 2000) and would not give it to him. We didn't have any money. We wanted it to be so special. She claimed he owed her money from 5 years ago but would not explain for what. We later heard she thought he was going to buy me a ring which wasn't even the case. I lost it. I never say anything, hate conflict and lost it. His father called and told him he needs to put me in my place. LOL can you imagine. We did not talk to them for awhile. All of a sudden she comes back in the picture. He is the only son and she lost one which I could never imagine so I always forgive. My daughters first bday comes up. We planned this nice outdoor park for it. She said we could use her place because its alot bigger in case it rains. THE NIGHT BEFORE she calls and says I'm not allowed to do it there because I have not been grateful to her for a shower she threw for me. This "shower" was her friends and family invite only. I was not allowed to invite anyone from my shower my mom threw. Which was my family and close friends because she didn't want any repeats. It was her party that started at 7pm. Even my fiance didn't know half the ppl. She got mad because we had a newborn and could not stay till 2am! Not to mention her friends which were strangers were passing my crying baby around and would dodge me and run away when I would try to get her. Anyways I was not grateful enough so thank god my dad got a hall in time and it turned out perfect. She shows up to the party with these stupid party glasses on and had the nerve to try and take over and thank my guests for coming! Afterwars packs up all the food we had catered to send home with her and her family. We aren't by any means well off. I also have to throw in the comments she makes to both of us are disgusting. She alwasy makes comments about how my daughter is so cute and she has no idea where she gets if from despite her looking the exact same as me. Implies that I'm fat and just hurtful horrible comments. Anyways we were trying for another and we got him. I was nervous to tell them and you can probably figure out why. Shocking she has been ok this time. I think she started to realize that I was avoiding her at all time and that I hated her. She has since been alot better. I finally let her watch my daughter again when she was two. She is really good with the kids now and to us in some cases. I know she talks about me all the time but at least she is not horrible to be around. Since she is so good with my daughter I won't keep her from her because of how she treated me. Its not fair to her. Its just tough at times to have her around all the time lol We planned our DW wedding. We did not expect help but since he is the only son I was a bit surprised that they won't. She has come out and said if we want one we will pay and she won't help. I can't blame her for that its fair. What is comical is since we all booked she has bought 3 40" inch tvs for each room, put in a new fireplace, new carpet, new hardwood floor, painted two rooms and new appliances. Not to mention she shops everyday, goes out for dinner 4 times a week, and has a expensive car/golf. She calls us and brags about everything, tells us the costs and expects us to ohhh and ahhh.... yet won't help her only son for his wedding at all? I guess she is getting her $50 000 worth lol Sorry this is the longest rant ever. Its nice to get it all out. I have probably left out alot more shocking stories but I'm typing so fast. I know its out of pure jealousy. Its obvious you can see it in her face. Its sick. I'm just happy she is getting better though. I hope in the years to come it will be alot better and I can sorta chuckle at her behaviour but I'm sure that will take at least 20 years! haha Thanks girls you are great therapy : )

Was going to be Into the mystic by van morrison or Lost together by blue rodeo. I'm 99% sure now it will be green eyes by coldplay. So excited! You ladies have such great songs : )

I don't think its tacky at all. Invite people who you would invite to your wedding. Alot of friends and family who can't make it love the idea. You don't have to turn it into a money grab. Make it a fun party and get together. I have paid for enough stag and doe tickets, wedding presents, shower gifts in my time. Just because you are having a destination wedding does not mean you have to miss out on all the fun pre wedding events!

What a horrible situation. I never believe people would screw others over like this. Maybe thats me being naive. I just have a feeling that something is up. Maybe some emergency or family thing? I would hate to think that someone could do this. It just seemed so legit. I'm sorry you girls are going through this. I hope it all gets resolved soon!

Hello, what size are the dresses?
