Sorry I was never very good at keeping up with this forum! Yes we had our reception at the cove terrace. It was a perfect location! We had 20 guests plus us and we fit nicely with a little extra room to dance. I think it would be ok with 30 but there probably wouldnt be as much room for dancing if you are interested in that. We had the area for 2 hours but cristina left and told us we could stay an extra 30 mins if we wanted, which was nice. We brought an Ipod and a friends Ipod dock and it sounded fine. I was really nervous that it wouldnt be loud enough with the wind and debated hiring their sound people until the last minute but I'm glad I didnt.
We did the complimentary package and didnt really add anything on except for the outside photography. I kinda wish we had hired a musician for the ceremony because the way they played the music was kinda unorganized. By the time I had finished walking down the aisle they had played part of 3 different songs and I only had 5! And the signing of the documents took so long I think they played one song 3 times.
We got the maracas in playa del carmen. A few of us took a cab there and did a little shopping and had lunch. We spent around $40 at one of the shops and got the maracas as well as some coffee and vanilla for my mom.

i'm attempting to post a link to some of my pics...not sure if this is going to work

I had the CRAZIEST thing happen to me today! I swear all the weird freak problems happen to me! So I was getting a few last things out of my suitcase and a LIZARD jumped out onto my arm!! I was so scared! The thing had just been sitting in there for days I guess! So now we have an accidental Mexican pet, got it some crickets and put it in a cage.
Anyway, hopefully this photog stuff is resolved for all you ladies and I just had a freak problem. And La Luna was great to work with I didnt mean anything bad against them!
I'll try to write up a review tomorrow and post some pics (wont be the professional ones of course) I'm so tired after my first day back at work and my lizard fiasco.
About the toiletries, I think it was just shampoo, conditioner, soap and body lotion. Shampoo, conditioner and lotion was biosilk.

Hey ladies! Got back from ASP yesterday! Our wedding was April 8th. We had a great time overall but had quite a few things go wrong. I almost think if I write a review I might scare people haha. A couple quick things I wanted to share since I got so much help from here:
Warning!! - I hired LaLuna for photography and was planning on just getting them guest passes like so many other brides have done. LaLuna also told me they had been to the resort with guest passes before with no problem. Well when I had my meeting with cristina and told her the names for the guest passes she says "they are photographers" and made me pay for a room for the night for them in order for them to be allowed in. I tried to argue and told her it was not fair when I knew that so many other brides had done it, and I cried, but it got me nowhere. She said so many people have been hiring outside vendors so they had to crack down on it.
We went to Xplor and had a great time! The ziplinig was really fun. They have 2 huge courses. The bad thing was that we booked it through one of the vacation planners at the resort and he told us that we could use our vacation dollars. When we checked out however it was charged to our bill and we were told that it is not part of the vacation dollars. So we ending up spending way more money then expected between this and the whole photography thing!

I have a 2nd job waitressing too. I got some nonslip sketchers shape up shoes I wear while I work so I like to think it is kind of a workout haha.On another note I did chest, shoulders and triceps today. Pretty much impossible for me to do all those push ups!

Waitressing is a full body workout in itself thought! :oP

Very cute! Nelson is going to be my new last name too!Originally Posted by kitty25967
Wow! I feel bad for you snow storm girls! I am not a snow person and we have actually had some this year (abnormal winter!) Hopefully those days are over as we know have sunny skies and mid 70's. Woo Hoo!
So I just posted this on the May thread but wanted to share with you girls as well because I was so excited, and my FI actually got excited when he saw everything and started coming up with new ideas...I was somewhat in shock LOL
........
Sooo obssessed with VistaPrint. Everything for my first order turned out great. I think I spent aroudn $36 and got freebies and free shipping. They "said" 21 days but my order came in less than 2 weeks! I LOVE it and can't wait to place another order! I get free postcards next so suggestions on what to make with them since you get so many. Not shown below, but I also ordered the free rubber self inking stamp with our names and our address on it.
Used the rack cards to make my door hangers. So happy with how they turned out!
Oversized postcards which I used as for the Welcome letters. Turned out awesome, look professional, and I LOVE them!
I got "save the date" cards with envelopes for free so I made stationary with my new name on them for some little thank you notes I can write. I got the pen for free and a steal of a deal on the business cards which I am come to use as thank you tags on OOT bags, luggage tags, key/tip holder cards, and maybe some other things!
FREE Car Magnet (P.S. My FI's name is Winston, but I call him Winnie so we are "Winnie & Tiffy")

yoga today!

Maybe, I'm not sure bc I haven't seen what they look like. I am still confused about the fits haha sorry I'm not much help.Originally Posted by starspringbride
Do you think the semi-baggy would have been a better choice? My fiance hates tapered pants so I considered the bootcut but I saw that someone said they had a girly fit to the. The trouser fits are so confusing to me.
-
I started out doing the diet but I was starting to get really angry from depriving myself of stuff I wanted haha. Now I have sort of adapted it to myself. I cut out fried foods and I try to make sure I only eat whole grains. No processed flour or sugary stuff. But occasionally I will have that piece of cake when its someones birthday at work or a margarita after a long day haha. I make an effort to make healthier choices overall and that is good enough for me.
angel366 - just stick with it! you will keep getting better! i remember the first time i did the yoga dvd i thought it would never end...
-
The pic I posted was of the straight leg. They are unhemmed because we just ordered standard size for the pants. We decided on those because we were afraid the classic fit would be too tapered but honestly the straight leg is not all that straight. They are not bad but FI would probably get something baggier if he could do it over.
-
Oh I have all of tonys quotes memorized now haha. When my FI works out with me I will say them along with the video to annoy him because he cant stand the guy haha. I forget which video but there is one where he quotes forest gump..."I got shot in the buttock." He is so corny!
-
Yay i'm glad there are more people on this thread now to motivate me! Im on month 2 now of P90X lean program. I was really proud of myself the first month but I have been slacking off lately so I decided to just pretend this last week didnt exist. I'm going to add a week on and try to get back on track next week and really push myself. I leave for Mexico April 5 so I will finish the 90 days right before then. Dress fitting is next week and I am scared!
-
I have been a total slacker this week but I'm getting back in gear starting today. P90X chest, shoulders, and triceps & ab ripper

I am happy with the color. FI thinks it came out lighter than it looked online and it does look a little different but we also looked at it on my old laptop and who knows how exact the color is on here

I love how the suit looks! I'm leaning toward ordering the tropical beige and am wondering how you think it compares to the tropical beige swatch on the studiosuits website? We're looking for a medium beige colour and think this may be the one. Let me know what you think

I have 4 sterling silver and cz starfish necklaces bought from Davids Bridal - style # pzs2298-18. I bought them for my bridesmaids but then changed my mind and bought something else instead and was hoping to get some money back. I will sell all 4 for $50, if you want less than 4 contact me and maybe we can work something out. I am moving in a few weeks and would love to get rid of them and get a few extra bucks before then. I will include shipping in the continental US.
