Shit! And I thought *I* was having a bad week... not nearly as bad as yours, TT.

 

Big hug coming your way - I'm especially sorry about the miscarriage...

 

Take a breather. As Harty said, these things seem to come in threes... and you've definately had yours~

*As usual, this is a little long, sorry!*

 

So to add to the long list of drama I have going on, I have sad news (damn I need a 'Lifetime movie' story) I didnt want to share this with the forum at 1st b/c I feel like I've been the 'grim reaper' of the forum for the past month. But I thought I would get some suggestions since you guys give such great advice.

 

Lets see if I can make this story as concise as possible....

 

Last week one of my flower girls passed away. She was only 7. She is one of my close friends step daughter. My friend was actually in China with her daughter (my other flower girl) while this happened, and her husband was at home with the little girl by himself (1st time watching her without anyone else). Evidently she was eating and choked to death while her dad was upstairs frown.gif

 

My friend has been going through sooooo much drama with the little girl's mom from the beginning. The mom did not allow them to see the little girl regularly up until this year. So they were banned from attending the funeral services. And were told to be expecting a lawsuit! (Thats only the tip of the iceberg, I could go on for days...)

 

Here's where I come in...

 

So my friend mentioned that they were still planning on attending my wedding (even though I stressed to her I would totally understand if they couldnt) But she thinks it would be a good break for them. So I'm wondering should I make a little 'memorial section' in my program to honor her or do something special as part of my ceremony. I am not sure if that is appropriate and I dont want to make anyone feel uneasy at such a joyous ocassion. But technically, since she was supposed to be a flower girl, I kind of feel like I need to do something, just not sure what. KWIM huh.gif I'm open to any and all ideas.

 

I saw a recent post (I think Jessica started) about something similar but didnt want to take over another thread.

 

Thanks in advance.

wow christina, that is so horrible!!! i am so sorry to hear this - really this is just terrible. big hug to you and your friends, what a sad event to go through.

 

I absolutely think it would be appropriate - but if I were you I would run it by your friend first and see how they feel about it. If it would make them at all uneasy or uncomfortable then leave it out, but if they give you the go ahead, I think it would be a nice little tribute.

    • 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!
