Snswedding2016 Planning Thread - Jan 9 2016 (Azul Fives)

Reading your to do list is making me freak out lol!

 

So sugaring wasn't that bad? I am going on Wednesday for the first time and I am VERY nervous!!

Okay so I've been getting waxed on and off for the last 10+ years by the same lady and every time I go she just shakes her head. She tells me (in her nice way) I have the lowest pain tolerance out of any of her clients. Always says it will get easier but for me, it never does lol I do find my legs hurt way more than anything else though.

 

Sugaring may be the way to go?! I'll see if she offers that

@@Smellsey don't worry my list freaks me out too! haha! sending you good vibes for the waxing!  Hopefully it won't be too bad for you either!

 

@@ashhtayy try sugaring!! I have nothing to compare it to but it really wasn't too bad. Check out Sugarmoon - they had great reviews online and I loved my experience. They have 3 locations in Toronto.

-Finish groomsmen gifts (I think we settled on ideas - half spa gift certificates for massages and half blue tooth speakers. Purchasing on Thursday!)

 

-Finish seating chart (my original DIY project was a bit of a fail on this one so we're working on plan B. this is Sean's project today!  )

Small signs I finished yesterday. They are a bit plain but at this point I just need something with the info. If I have time left over I might jazz up the formatting.  One is for our favours (the dictionary magnets and the other with our hashtag info)

 

 

Air Transat - Option Plus Baggage Allowance

I was starting to confuse myself with what is allowed so I called last night to verify I understood it correctly. For anyone travelling with Air Transat here it is:

 

22 lbs - carry on (per person) **This does NOT include your garment bag for your wedding dress or your personal item - ie. your purse

66 lbs - checked baggage (per person) you can have multiple pieces (no limit) as long as it is under 66 lbs total

 

Hope this helps!

@@snswedding2016 you should get 80lbs each for being a bride and groom. My travel agent got us that. And I thought that the other guests at 44lbs each as a checked bag and not 66lbs...

[snswedding2016]

@@Smellsey I wonder if that was with cloud 9 which they have phased out I think. It's now option plus unless you upgrade to club class. For your guests it would be 44 lbs not 66 lbs. 66lbs is only for those with option plus.

We should be fine with 66lbs each though.

[Smellsey]

ok that is what i thought. My itinerary says 80lbs. very weird!

[calgarybride2015]

66 is a lot. We got 70 with AC and could barely get it over 40!!! Only so much fits. Unless I guess you have heavy items. Even 45 tumblers and oh shit kits in a suitcase didn't come close

I'd pack for 80 and when questioned pull out the paperwork!
