I found this board this morning and cannot wait to sit back tonight and read all about everyone. Being a newbie, here is a bit of info on me:

 

This is a second wedding for me and a first for my fiance. We met almost 3 years ago on matchmaker.com and have been inseperable since. We are older and have three teenagers between us (me - 2 boys (14 and 12) and FI - 14 girl). He is truly the love of my life and I could not be happier. It is a shame that I had to go through a bad marriage for 12 years to find him but in the long run, it is perfect and I can so see myself growing old, enjoying grandchildren and all that good stuff with this man. We are planning a small DW in Lake Tahoe, NV with family and close friends only. Our ceremony is being held on a mountain vista overlook of Lake Tahoe with the reception on a paddle wheel boat dinner/dance cruise. Guest count is 30. In my other marriage it was a justice of the peace situation so FI wanted me to have a real wedding this time. We are bypassing some traditions, but I did buy a white dress with a small train. After our wedding, we will return to our home in Las Vegas for a couple of days while we disburse kids to their father or back home to Michigan at which time we leave on a 12 day honeymoon to the Olympic Peninsula and Alaska.

 

I look forward to learning about everyone and picking up some valuable tips before my wedding in a little more then 3 months smile159.gif

We are not doing a traditional wedding party. Instead the three kids will stand up with us. Being we are older and have kids, it was important to us to do this. Our invitations even reflected the names of the kids - they are our lives and part of this whole wedding which is another reason we opted to have them stand with us instead of a bridal party.

 

Thanks for the welcome!

welcome to the forum. I am from Sparks, NV orginally and lived in Vegas for a year teaching in CCSD. If you have any questions about Tahoe let me know. How exciting, my sister is actually getting married in Tahoe in April.

Glad to have a fellow Nevadan on the forum

      Cabo Azul Wedding Cost / Review

      By Emmma · Posted

      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!

      Wedding venues and wedding planner in Costa Rica

      By KristinaH · Posted

      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!
