  1.   My skin doesn't break out too often, and I was on BC, so I can't say how much it helped with that.  I just know the dermatologist highly recommends using something with retin-a b/c it gives your skin nutrients it needs.  She also gave me a moisturizer with sunblock, and showed me how bad even the standard sunrays are.  I more or less wanted to get into a skincare regimen to help keep my skin looking young.  I think a dermatologist would be a great start.  :)

    Maybe I should just make an appt. at a dermatologist too....you found that the retinol cream helped?  (just for breakouts???  did it help with pores etc?)

    Thanks!

    :)



     


    That is what I am afraid of, a spray tan coming off, or just not looking nice.  I am there a  few days before too, but wanted a tan for the welcome party too.... 

    Thanks for the advice! 

    :)



     


    I wore a veil and while it was all over the place, I wouldn't have changed it.  I think it made me look more "bridal."  I even kept it on for the reception, and it saved me from balling coming down the aisle.  It whipped me in the face as we were coming down the aisle and I laughed and pushed it out of the way.  :)  I always thought I didn't want one but it looked so nice with the dress.  And you can get them very cheap online, if you're not looking for anything fancy or particular.  If you don't spend a lot on it, you can decide on the wedding day depending on the weather.  I married at 5pm on the beach, and it was very windy! :(

We have another visit Tuesday and we leave Wednesday - so keeping hopes up, but it sounds like should be good to go!!!  Thank God!!!

     

    I wanted to ask you girls who are on Facebook to do me a big favor???  Unless, of course another bride on this forum is in the contest, because that wouldn't be fair.... but we are in Azul Hotels May Contest for $500 Resort Credit... and the bride who gets the most "LIKES" on their proposal story WINS!!!  If you want to help us out, that would be GREAT!!!  There are THREE steps:

     

    1 - LIKE Azul Hotels by Karisma page  http://www.facebook.com/home.php#!/azulhotels

    2 - Click on Photos, and find the Album called The Best Proposal Story, and find our picture.  We are the last picture, I am wearing a blue football jersey and he is wearing a white one and it says "Portraits by Jody".

    3 - LIKE our picture and please comment, too.

     

     THANKS everyone!!!  It's almost that time!!!!

    We told our parents and siblings and that was it.  We married at our house (we live on the water) and the parents made a bigger deal of it than we had wanted but it was a nice day.  I didn't feel married then at all though b/c I had planned everything for Mexico.

    Were you really able to keep it a secret?  I am not sure who to tell/not tell (my mom, his mom)....

     

     



     





     

    I went to a dermatologist and just started using a retinol cream (has retin-a which is like the best for your skin).  I thought about the peels and all but I've never seen a major change from one so I opted to use my certificate for a massage instead.  :)

     

    For the second one, sorry, can't help ya.  If you saw my pics, I got kinda Mexican looking at the beach!! Lol

    A few beauty questions....

     

    1.  Did anyone do anything start getting facials, or perhaps try a peel before their big day, or are thinking about it?  I don't normally do these sorts of things, but think it could help as my skin has started to break-out since I've stopped the pill in December (medical reasons).

     

    2.  Is anyone super milky white like me (for real)...and tanning or something before their big day?  ( I don't want to be super white on the beach...I would like a nice tan) - but not sure if I want to fake-and-bake at the tanning salons....any other suggestions? 



     

  3. Hey Justine,

     

    I have a very plain one that I got for a good price.  It's like an ivory color with satin edging, about 14 inches maybe?  I pinned it under my hair, at the nape of my neck.  Let me know if you're interested.  :) 14 2nd fitting.JPG

    Thanks :)



     

  4. Jesse, my coordinator was Claudia who Olympia (the girl I originally met when we arrived says is a stickler).  Olympia was supposed to see what she could do about having them drape the shears for me but she wasn't there on our wedding day.  :( 

     

    Justine, We shot in sooo many locations!!  Like Murmel said, the wall is the front of the resort.  There's also a pretty fountain type thing there where we took pics and the sky should look really pretty in the background of those.  You have the tall steps that are lit up at night, the bridges, lots of tropical areas (the pic I have on here was taken right outside the Spoons Restaurant.  There's a cute carriage by the yellow restaurant (can never remember the names), and Le Chique is a cool place to take pics but we didn't.  There's the pier, many palm trees, the beach.  The list goes on.  :)  I originally wanted to travel for the TTD session but I figured it might be too much of a headache so we did it at the resort, and I think got some cute shots.  I am sooo anxious to see them all!


  5. Hey there, here is a pic of the tables.  table set up.JPG
