Harty - why do you need a new dress?

[Hartyt509]

Lost loads of weight and toned up so i'm at least one dress size down and by April probs more lol I can get a new one for £85 and the alterations will probs cost more than that

BMs and GMS are getting their own - we gave some basic guidelines but letting them choose. We have 32 booked may go up to 40. Oh and got part of the BM gifts. This weekends plans are to get the OOT bag stuff, work on vows, and music since we are going with the iPod.

Still need: FHs shirt, finish OOT bags, jewelry and decide what to do with my hair, figure out all the AHR stuff (have the day and place but no clue what else I want to do), and I'm sure about 10,000 other things that I can't think of right now. I wish I was one of those girls that started planning their wedding at 6, I'm totally clueless now.

Wow I haven't seen to many people with the same wedding date as me! So how have you found your wedding planning going with just e-mails and pictures?? I honestly thought it would be much harder!! Where are you both haveing your weddings??

Harty- Thats great!! Such a good reason to get a new dress ;-) I actually ordered mine a size smaller (i know ur so not suppose to do that) and was super nervous for my fitting but it fits perfectly and may have to get taken in a bit

 

KGeen - Im getting married at Azul Beach Hotel and Resort its in Mexico near Playa de Carmen. wedding planning is going...starting to get a bit frustrating with the emails on my end since our WC for our resort has a 24 hr rule and only emails you once per day so if you have a follow up question (which i always do) i have to wait another 24 hours! But I know she has a lot of upcoming weddings so im trying to stay patient

Mine has been a little slower getting back but the information she suplies me with is amazing. I'm a Gran Bahia Tulum girl. I've been finding it really hard to imagin what things will look like in my colours, or how it will look with the requests I've made. In the end really how bad can it look your in Mexico on at a beautiful lush resort!! It really can't be terible. This form has been great with talking with other bride that have been down and just had there wedding's so it's given me some releaf! Everyone asks how you can plan a wedding by e-mails....my answer quite easily!!! I'm so happy we decided to go a way. Because I've seen a few other's plan a wedding here for this summer and I honestly think they are going to end up in the padded room!!

Yea! May 8th rocks this year.

Honestly, I'm just not that a**l retentive about things so its been easy. I've been doing little things here and there but I haven't had any problems with communication with my WC or anyone else so I've been lucky. I'm getting married at Moon Palace and I have the Superior Wedding package so I don't have to worry about much. I also don't have a lot of things that I'm planning on bringing to the resort, whatever bouquet, cakes or meals they want me to have I'm cool with. This forum has been a great help too, helps me figure out what I should be worrying/thinking about and what not to.
Of course, that being said, I'm sure I'll be on here freaking out when I'm within a month.

Oh and it helps that I drink, LOL

LOl I did find last weekend when I had more than half a bottle of wine (it doesnt take much for me) i was WAY more relaxed and stress free about the wedding so i plan on having wine from now on when I plan. We arent really bringing anythign down with us either - just the OOT stuff and of course our attire. Good thing its beachy so dont need to pack any heavy clothing!

I am feeling overwhelmed today. I do things little by little and in a way I think I should just do everything all at once. It just takes me forever to commit to a decision and THEN i look on this forum and get MORE ideas and then... it's just a vicious cycle.

 

My list is coming a long i guess. I'm just scared that it's all happening so fast. ANd people are being annoying with their RSVP's and I wnat a final count so we can be done with this OOT business. Okay I am done venting.

 

Harty- way to go on dropping extra lbs. I'm jealous I need to go on a serious diet. I eat healthy and work out like a crazy person but the lbs don't drop. The trainer I was working with said my body fat % went down from 33 to 21. It's weird though because my clothes still fit the same. Anyway.. I think it is coming down to being super strict with food. Did you do anything special

 

Thanks for listening May brides! xo

Today I got in my hankies for the moms and my girls. I ordered the shirts for the FI and I to wear the day after in Bermuda. I also ordered shirts for my mom, moh and myself to wear on the cruise.

 

And to the rsvp gig, my cut off date came and went, I do have plenty of extra stuff, but the only thing left to grab is munchies and a puzzle book for my OOT's.

 

OMG! My outfits for my BD shoot came in also!! And my AHR dress came in, now I just have to go get fitted. It's slowly coming together!
