I would wait on flights. I booked as soon as I could and spent more than the ones who just booked within the last couple of weeks. That being said though, you're going during peak season and I'm not, so that may be affecting the prices. Also, be sure to check into group or wedding discounts.

 

I'm definitely getting excited, but I feel like I have a million things to do. I'm a bride without a veil, shoes, garter, and jewelry! How did that happen?!

 

Ugh, my SIL just e-mailed saying that they might be bringing my niece. She'll be 7 months old in May and of course I want her there, but adding an infant now causes more work than they think! Grrr...

Hello Kristy,

 

Don't worry you still have some time left. I still haven't gotten my shoes, garter and few other little things as well. My hubby to be on the other hand is driving me crazy cause he has not gotten his suit. He is going to look this weekend and hopefully he finds something rigth away. We are three months away. Time is going fast.

 

By the way, are you shipping anything down or taking it all with you? I don't want to have too much weight to take with me.

 

Hope all is going well the the other girls..

If you have some family and friends traveling down with you, ask them if they would check a bag with some of your items. We were able to carry down so much stuff this way.

 

I finally got around to posting my review : Link If you have any questions feel free to send me a message.

Trini,

Thanks for the tips. I will do that. Hopefully they are ok with that. Thanks for posting your review. It was very nice. Beautiful pics. Congrats!!

I'm only planning on bringing down one big bag of wedding stuff, mostly for the OOT bags. My dad is including it in his checked luggage. I'm not shipping anything. I'm just not all that particular about things. My WC has given me decent prices on stuff down there, so that works for me.

Were did everybody go?

 

I just found out that I'm getting my flowers from the Flower Shack. (I just let my WC choose where I would get them from.) I have already been in contact with Dierdre and she is so nice. I'll let you know how everything works out! I'll be leaving next month, woo hoo!

Ooh a month - how exciting!

 

"I'm a bride without a veil, shoes, garter, and jewelry! How did that happen?!"

 

Did you get everytjhing sorted?

[Kristy!]

I got the veil, barefoot sandals, fun reception shoes, and earrings. I need a necklace, garter, and just married flip flops. I'm hoping someone gets me a fun garter at my shower.

 

Has anyone seen Just Married flip flops that are a little better quality? All I can find are the ones with that really hard plastic that ends up rubbing against my toes

[Beach-bride]

I can't wear flip flops, I hate hate hate things between my toes so am no help I am afraid!

Kristy,

 

Unfortunately, I've just seen the "Just Married" flip flops in the hard plastic. Please let me know if you find softer nicer ones! Did you make your own barefoot sandals or did you buy them? Can you post a photo of yours? I'd love some ideas.

 

Only 2 months and a few days to go for me!
