congrats and welcome! I am getting married at Dreams cancun, I love dreams!

congrats and welcome!

Drop dead gorgeous! Congrats!

I agree this is so personal. If you want something more generic, how about "besame mucho" The show little people on TLC, they engraved "Elephant Juice" which I thought was super cute, they mouth it to eachother in a crowded room and it looks like they're saying I love you!

I'm sure you can find off-white or chocolate, especially now that it's easter! Have you thought about getting it made? Ebay has tons of options.

Those are so nice! I can't decide, too many great choices, I'm obsessed with Etsy!

Thanks for the fonts! Now I just gotta get to the 150 posts....more DWF here I come!

Talk about DIY crazy! I can't believe I just barely now discovered this part of the site!

If I made some, it would say "no mas tequila," hangovers would be the only time I'd see my peeps holding a mug..lol

What a sweet idea! What font did you use? It looks so great!

My favorite cookies! yummy!

Have you guys checked out beachbody.com? Full of great info comparing programs. I'm on week 2 of P90 and feel so much better (and sore)

looks great!

So original! Great ideas!

These are so nice! I am so impressed with all this creativity!

These are so fantastic! Thanks for sharing! What font did you use? I love it!

Great thread! Thanks for all the ideas!

To whoever asked, I stayed at the Royal last October, and it was FANTASTIC. Gorgeous! I literally felt like a princess! The rooms are insanely nice, all have jacuzzis, and huge showers, the service is great, food was delicious and the whole place so so gorgeous to look at. The beach hadn't been finished, but we were definitely allowed in. It wasn't huge but in October, there were hardly any other beachgoers there! One day we had the beach to ourselves! The water was like 85 degrees warm and very calm, great to relax in. Most people hung out by the pools and bars drinking miller lites all day...lol. Take advantage of the Ocean people! Anyway, I'm getting married at Dreams because we have 11 kiddies attending, but it was definitely hard to say no to the Royal.

My initial wedding budget was $5,000 plus our tickets/hotel. It would have definitely worked, except we got a bigger response than expected and about 70 people said they would go....then I started realizing I could get there things I could never afford here...like a DJ and a bouquet of flowers...and a 3 tiered cake...and a video...so now things are adding up... but your budget is totally reasonable. I didn't pay for my wedding party, but bought 2 of the girls a plane ticket for their little ones (single moms) and paid for the dresses of a couple other girls who I knew were unemployed...little things go a long way.

I did go from 148 to 133 though. So 15lbs! BTW...I never did the yoga, I would just sub in cardio. I now just started the classic program since I want to gain muscle and it is so hard! I find that I can't do plyometrics since my knees are bad, so I sub in cardio. I also still do cardio on the yoga days since I HATE YOGA! I actually started to notice some definition, but i'm not where I want to be yet. I tried the diet, did anyone else? I finally just took myself off of it and stayed on the healthy track! It was getting to be expensive! I just wanted to jump in and tell you all that you should keep up with it because it works! I feel great! Being sore will just become a part of you now. LOL! Sounds bad, but you won't even realize you are actually sore anymore since you are use to it. I love love love P90X! Wow! Sounds like those are fantastic results! I'm at 146 now and can't remember the last time I was in the 130's...that would be a dream! I started off with Classic, maybe I should do lean... And I'm doing the diet too! It takes a lot of cooking though and that's time I don't always have, so I'm doing a lot of protein shakes as meal substitutions too. I love the Myoplex Light in vanilla...I pretend they're milkshakes from In n' Out And Diva, you do need hand weights, and/or a band, and a mat. They suggest pull ups but if you can't do any, like me, use the handy band! I got mine at Ross!

A couple of us have mentioned this before, but I will mention again.... Look into bringing a photographer from the states! My total for 2 photographers, including 8hrs on the wedding day AND a 3hr TTD....$1600. Not bad. I get a DVD with full copy rights to all pics taken...estimated 800 pics just for the wedding. And a photographer I love who speaks perfect English! She charges $5,000 for the same back home, but she's in it for the trip to Cancun and making her portfolio look bigger. So worth it for all involved.

bahia bride, those are so pretty!

I want long hair, down, flower, and veil....wonder if it'll work....

I love short dresses! Try Melissa Sweet or Dolly Couture.

I love Bikram! I used to live in San Francisco where competition brought prices down, it was like $50 a month unlimited, now I am in the burbs and each class is $12....ouch...really adds up. And yes it does get stinky sometimes! lol...but you won't care when you feel oh-so-good. Next step, convince the boy to come along with me...
