OMG - I'd be bitchy too! I hope he finds something to help. I know the frustration. Been there and done that! I ended up with my last epidural that has lasted quite some time - thank God! I hope they get you feeling better soon. Let me know what they say. I swear, I keep a full bottle of vicodin on hand just in case the pain comes back.

Good luck! smile03.gif

OMG, It's exactly 6 months today I'm getting married. Crazy!!

 

For you ladies who are trying to loose a bit of weight, I found drinking a TON of water every day totally helped me. Just cutting back on soda and drinking water instead will start to really work/help.

 

OOT bags, I'm not quite sure how to get the bags to everyone.. all my guests are staying at different condos so I hafta figure that out too.. sigh

I'm actually giving my oot bags out before we leave. I guess they are technically Welcome Bags. This way i dont have to carry all that stuff done with me. i pack way too much normally, i don't want to make it worse.

 

Are you guys having a welcome dinner or something you can hand them out at?

 

Todays my six month mark, scarey!!!

Yaaah, you found a dress that's awesome. Maybe you can find one just like it that's a little less expensive. If not I'd say go for it!!! But it's not my money.

I actually got to big things done this weekend (well sorta) I think i picked out bm dresses. I just have to go back and actually order them and get the bm to go get sized. And yesterday I took off work and registered at Bed Bath and Beyond. Still have to register at two more stores. But i feel like i actually accomplished things!!!

I'm doing the colonix with Maura. I think some kind of cleanse is definately a good idea to kickstart ya. I'm also doing BL2, that better help me out.

OMG Danielle! You are 6 months today! Yikes! Me and Steph are 6 months on Thursday!

Yeah, I think I am going to do "Whole body cleanse" I was reading the box while waiting in line for a prescription at Wal Mart. Also, they have Metamucil in strawberry lemonade flavor. I might be adding that to my diet as well!

As far as OOT bags go, we have a few staying at another resort (they have timeshares). I am going to take them their bags over to their hotel once I know they are all in. Their bags will be a little different than those staying with us at the AI. Since, we get free bottled water, beer and soda, I am going to add some bottled water, beer and soda to the timeshare bags.

For those staying at our AI resort, I think I'm going to do cups for the girls. I figure the guys may just want beers - hey.....maybe I should do koozies for the guys at our resort. (sorry for the ramble...)

Anyhow, Most of our guests who are staying with us at the AI will get there Thursday between 3 and 5. We may all be able to hook up at the lobby bar or something. That was my first idea. I'll have to figure it out once we get everyones itineraries. We are getting there on Wednesday the 5th and are leaving on Saturday the 15th. We actually have one couple getting there before us!

Celina, putting the bottled water, beer and soda in the timeshare guests bags is a really great idea. Not only is it free but i'm sure they will really appreciate the stuff. Koozies are a great idea too. And people would use them when they got home. I was going to do koozies but my ai resort poors everything into plastic cups, so i ended up ordering stadium cups that have one of our logos on them.

    • Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!
    • Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
