I emailed him a couple of weeks ago too so I could get a list of his current songs. I haven't heard from him either and I leave for my wedding in 5 days. I just figure I will not stress over it and if he needs to download a bunch of songs, then that stress is on him, not me :-). I'm sure it will all work out

Yay Jenny! I'll see you there on Monday.... I'll be the short one next to the 6'6 man ....or surrounded by a bunch of gay men lol (my brothers and their partners)

Girl, you must have been in my head because i have been mopey all day because of the weather reports...thanks for making me feel better :-) If you love it, get it. My dress is super heavy and I even had to get a 2nd dress for TTD because FI thought I might drown from the weight of it lol. I felt pretty in the big dress, so that is the one i went with. I figure it will be chilly after the sun goes down, so no prob ;-)

Kelly, A lot of my friends of my friends had full intentions on going, but when it came to fruition, it just wasn't possible. I noticed some factors, however: FI has a about 8 friends going (they are all unmarried, no children and most are single) I have 1 friend booked (unmarried, coming with her boyfriend)...supposed to have another friend coming, but she hasn't booked and well, wedding is in 8 days. Most of my friends are married with (small) children, so I think that played the biggest factor among my core group because even after the age of 2, you have to pay for their airline seat. I will admit, I sometimes send FI a little sad face in IM convos lol and tell him I'm jealous that most of his good friends are going and a lot of mine are not, but I know that I will love and always remember my wedding in Mexico and how much I love him. It does bring me comfort that we are having a home reception, however, so my good friends WILL be at that. You would always do something at home- it can be as simple as a small casual bbq at home, to an elaborate affair, but your friends will definitely celebrate your union with you there :-). I hope that helps.

No, that was my fault...i sent it and then decided to wait until next week or my nosey people will be all over your page and I don't want to give them any sneak peek lol....unless your stuff is private then it doesnt matter lol

OOh ooh, I'm friend hijacking you! lol

bon_dia, I think I can safely say that no one here is taking it lightly, nor does anyone here have a malicious bone in their body. If you were referring to me, then I'm sorry if what you interpreted/miscontrued offended you, but the ladies who frequent this forum know that my father requested this months ago (and this had nothing to do with the recent incident). The "lol" was in explanation of the randomness of why he suggested Canada.

Aww Kelly what a cute idea, I love that. Jozee, I agree that they will like whatever you get them. I even saw a really cute jewelry box that you can have engraved for only 7.00 on the knot.

Jess, i'm go glad you had the wedding of your dreams! If you get a chance to read back a bit, I had a dream that we all watched your wedding on webcam ...it was hilarious. How did things go with Marvin? Did you meet him somewhere? Also, did they charge you for Fernando?

I only have two bridesmaids, so I bought their dresses (david's bridal), and I just ordered them a travel bag that hangs with their names embroidered on it. Have you looked on the knot? They often have stuff on sale or clearance.

My dad also suggested that I move the wedding to Canada (FI's from there) lol. Unfortunately it seems to be the reality that a good portion of people will not go. I had people (even two in my wedding party, including my MOH) who are no longer going :-(. One of my bridesmaids still hasn't booked and we leave a week from today. O_o ....people will have the best intentions, but realistically the majority will not.

Well said!

Does anyone know when Jess gets back?

Thanks! I'm trying to stay positive despite the fact that the 10 day forecast has it raining from the day i get there through the wedding :-(

Yeah, it is really sad :-(

Ugh, I'm starting to get the texts: "what is happening in Playa?!" http://www.cnn.com/2010/WORLD/americas/11/14/mexico.hotel.explosion/index.html

are you putting your OOT bags together before you leave, or when you get there at the resort?

Maybe....if I can gather the enthusiasm to do it lol ....work is beating me down. I have to go in at 5 am Monday - 6pm ....not looking forward to that. BUT Wed is my last day :-)

LOL last night I remembered it was Jess's big day today and must have had that in my subconscious lol because I dreamt that we all watched the ceremony on webcam! Bahaha it was hilarious

I just forwarded you the email with pricing and pics that they sent me:-)

Everyone has seemed to really love the cakes
