Ivis is actually out of Miami. I have her as well, and just spoke to her last week. My onsite is Kalena.

Yes you can use resort credits to take a limo back to the airport, we did this as we had so many left over from my SIL's wedding that I Think we actually all did this option

okay ladies on pinterest how are you finding each other? I have no problem with the concept just not how to find people that aren't already Facebook friends

it is actually the same bouquet just different views. Interesting huh? The flowers sticking out are callas or the orchids depending...I think it if it was more uniform like mixed rather than all the same types together it would look like it belongs rather than out of place.

Okay ladies need some advice. Got my bouquet pic from Marvin, but I am not 100% happy so I need some opinions. It's a mix of pink calla's, white and cream roses and pink ranunculus *my fave* and he has orchids in it. Not a huge fan of orchids, I know what is wrong with me so I know I want them removed and adding pink roses and more cream & white roses? My predicament is that although I loved the calla's in another brides bouquet I am not sure it fits in mine plus I am not sure I like grouping all the same flowers together. Would it be better if they were all mixed up or should I just leave it with roses and ranunculus? I really like how they look together below. HELP

I totally agree, it is a beautiful dress and it looks amazing on you. Perfect for a DW. My dress is not anything that I thought I would pick and I am never sure how I feel about it because honestly I don't care about it that much. Necessary evil for a wedding IMO, but I also know my body isn't perfect. So if it makes you excited it is all that matters

congratulations, your wedding pictures feel how you described. Enjoy. Congrats again on the article and being a Mrs.

Coco, I am SOOO sorry. My FI always tells me to keep my anal spelling nature to myself. He said that I HAVE to apologize to you immediately. So I am so very sorry, I did the same thing to a friend on her wedding invitations after she glued on all the rhinestones, I should just zip it.

Coco since I know you are a complete and utter perfectionist I wanted to point out that your assorted Mexican Desserts on your menu actually says Desert. Everyone's projects look great!

They are beautiful, your FI is going to LOVE them Welcome back Kelly you've been missed. Congrats on everything. I can't believe you are almost 90 days away. OMG so excited

Happy Monday ladies! We had a rather productive weekend, but not necessarily with planning. Such is life sometimes. FI's sister had her AHR on Saturday, she found out she was pregnant the day they got back from Cancun so needless to say she wasn't sure if she'd have one. They decided to have an anniversary party for their 1 year anniversary as a family. Spent a long day setting up and hanging with family. We keep getting told about family members who hope to be able to go, and that is okay. We are lucky with the people that are able to go. Sunday we had our engagement pictures done though so we'll see how they turn out. Being a photographer myself I HATE being in front of the camera. Ugh, it is so hard. Coco, congrats on all the room nights and finally knowing that you will have all the events covered that you want to have. We currently have 41 room nights, which is pretty good. There are like 10 couples that still haven't booked that say they are going, and our photog hasn't booked yet so I at least know we'll be at 45 I'm okay with whatever happens though we'll do the best we can with what we get. Happy Planning this week ladies

Welcome Sunny. These ladies are amazing and inspiring and congrats on picking your resort.

OH NO Jamie. I hope those MOFO's get busted and you get all of your jewelry back with nothing damaged. ((HUGS)) so very sad with you.

Yay, I will be there for 2 weeks also starting 4/13 and leaving 4/27. Congratulations! I can't wait to meet all you beautiful brides *and grooms*

I am so excited for you and I can't wait to see pix. When do you leave?

and a gift card to their fave Mexican restaurant so that if she feels up to it and is not in labor they can go celebrate your wedding day with a little piece of Mexico. Congrats on becoming an Auntie FI's sister had his first nephew in July. It's awesome

: ) well they live in Pewaukee but we'll blame it on the Appleton water where he grew up.

I go through phases. It feels real one day and then the next it's like ehh.nope. My dress doesn't make it real either. I like my dress, but I am not about the clothes if that makes sense. My photography is what matters to me so maybe after we get engagement pix?

Yay another WI bride I too was rooting for Texas because I am a huge Brewers fan and I didn't want the Cards to win

Tough situation, FI and I initially told people that we weren't having a wedding party because we didn't want people to be "forced" to go because we asked them to do this for us and we decided *if* we were meant to have one, they would present themselves as such. So we now have a MOH and BM which are FI's sister and her hubby. I think you have every right to make your day, YOURS. And honestly I would tell her I understand you are upset with me however this is MY wedding dress and I really wanted you to be there, but since you couldn't make it the day I understood. And i am sure it was a truly special moment for your daughter to go back with you and say yes that is the dress

Welcome and congrats. This is an amazing amazing place. You will find so much inspiration and make so many incredible friends that begin to feel like family.

My FI's dad and new step mom are not coming to our wedding either. FI's sister got married at the Beach Palace in 2010 and they went for that wedding but they decided that our wedding is not their type of "vacation" ummm...not about you. But yes I know how you feel. And it still does hurt a little bit especially because I love FI so much and I know it hurts him, but then I think I wouldn't want them there anyway. It is a mixed bag of emotion and you are definitely entitled to change your mind every day if you want to.

@ YWS-love your barefoot jewelry, Chelsea they are beautiful. @ Coco, seriously your relationship with your new printer is hysterical, it's like you're an old married couple bickering over when he is going to finally do what you asked him to do. LOL Anyone else watching the Hurricane Rina updates like a fanatic?

Jamie, LOVE your STDs, I originally wanted to do pink & orange, but decided on all shades of pink and black so that I would not have to worry about color matching every little detail. Super cute. and thank you lovely ladies for bolstering my confidence on my DIY jewelry. FI will always tell me it looks good because that's just how he is. Now to research how to make barefoot jewelry and see I can make heads or tails out of that

Hiya ladies, we were supposed to have our engagement pictures done this past weekend, but we got rained out :( So instead FI said, how about we make some jewelry. Ummm deal! I took a jewelry making class in August, but hadn't even attempted to make any since then because I admit I was a bit intimidated. One of the items I wanted to include in our OOT bags, was a handmade bracelet for each of the ladies. I could have bought them, but I like the idea of this DIY plus I think it will be fun to see them be worn on the trip. So without further ado... The one above is for a guest the one below is for my future MIL Below I think is for my MOH as it's in our wedding colors Below is another one for a guest, ignore the clips I just haven't completed them yet I am also in the process of working on our third newsletter, hoping to push through the final bookings. we shall see what happens. How are you ladies doing?
