Recommended Posts

WOW - I can't believe it's my turn! Thank you BDW for being here for me! I have met so many wonderful women and many of your ideas have been the inspiration for so many parts of my wedding!

 

Thanks for listening, encouraging, crying with me when times were tough, laughing and cheering me on this past year as I planned this wedding.

 

Many thanks and MUCH LOVE to all the Mods, the November brides, PV Brides and those extra special brides who have become my friends and confidants! I love you and couldnt have done all of this without you!

 

Now....here's what you want so here it goes!

The Dress (tea length)- Purchased at Lane Bryant for $89 (excuse the hair and make up) - you can see the veil laying on the side - it's a fingertip length with scalloped edge with beads and crystals all along the edge - I paid almost $200 for the veil but it was the one thing I wanted to hand down to my daughter:

I don't have a pic of FI's shirt (Sorry), nor do I have a pic of Ring Bearer or FG dress. Both outfits are at my parents house so you'll have to wait on the wedding pics for those!

There are so many things I havent took pictures of but will be sure to include them in my review when I get back. This is what I have for now and I thought I'd get it posted since this is my last day at work!

 

That's it! We leave on Wednesday and I have been so emotional the past few weeks. This marriage thing is a huge and final step. Our legal day is tomorrow - of course I'll take pics and post when I get back.

 

Thanks again BDW for everything!

 

With love,

Celina

Soon to be Mrs. Ellis

    • 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!
