Meag Tuck's (future_mrs2010)SUPER long planning thread!!! PIC HEAVY!!!


Recommended Posts

WOW! I can not believe it is my turn! FI and I leave Sunday January 17th, 2010 for Turks and Caicos! We will be there for 11 days, staying at Beaches resort (honeymooning there also). Our wedding is on Saturday January 23rd. It feels like I just booked our trip yesterday, but it is finally our turn. We have 21 guests coming!

 

I wanted to say THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU to everyone on this forum for all of your help! And a huge shout out to my "shoutbox" girls! I could not have done this with out the support of everyone on here. Thanks Tammy for such a great site!!! I got a ton of my ideas from here, so thank you again, to all of you!!!

 

OK so lets see...

FI and I got engaged on Christmas Eve 2008... long story short.. I opened a box in a box in a box in a box and when I finally made it to the bottom of the last box it was filled with....COAL!!! I was shocked.. everyone was laughing and they thought it was hysterical and finally FI said "I thought you said you wanted a rock!" and then he stood up and walked over to me, pulled the ring out of his pocket, and got down on one knee. It was soo perfect and he did a great job.

 

 

My ring is a Verragio; paradiso collection. I love it and its def. an eye catcher!

It's blue on this inside of the ring and I had it engraved with "Gimmie Kiss 1.23.2010" an inside joke and our wedding date.

 

My wedding band is from the Shane CO. It has 11 diamonds and looks great with my E ring.

    • 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!
