  1. Taking your cats or any pet for the matter to an apartment to stay would be extremely traumatizing for them and to be honest, a bit outrageous. You said that your FI was aware that the cats are part of the package so this is his time to continue understanding that. Pets are for life and they need you and they deserve to be happy and so do you. I would not even had put them in the basement as it sounds that one of your kitties is already having a lot of trouble dealing with that situation. Cats are not animals that are used to being confined..your FI should learn to see them more as children that need routine, socialization, and love. I hope that he learns to deal with this and best of luck to you.
  2. Thanks for all the replies! I checked out those areas last night (for way too many hours!) and am really hooked on Sanibel. It looks amazing there and seems like it just couldnt match our personalities any better. I posted again today to see what other insights I can get on the Sanibel area.
  3. I finally looked into Sanibel Island and I love it more than anywhere else that Ive found. I just wanted to see if any of you can give me your insights on it or if anyone had some pictures. Also, I found that there are several cottages to stay in the "Old Sanibel" area...anyone have any experience with these? The idea of a cottage sounds neat to me! Finally, I know there is a huge preseve in Sanibel...can this be quickly accessed anywhere on the island? Thanks!
  4. I, like so many others, am in the same situation as you. My FI and I are getting married alone in Florida with no guests which his parents have stated is "ruining their life." ( a little over the top, huh?) We are then returning to our home state (not where we live now) for a fun reception with a laid-back atmosphere but my mom is upset that the meal will be vegetarian and that I expect people to dress up. Even more, there are endless other disagreementss. But you know what, you CANNOT make everyone happy and the whole event belongs to you and your fiancee. Everyone else involved can have or has had their chance to create the wedding/reception that they wanted and this one is yours. Everyone else will get over it. I prefer just to figure things out and then let the family know what we have decided, end of discussion. Good LucK!
  5. Im going through that same thing RIGHT NOW! lol Its incredibly stressful! We debated between Jamaica, Cali, and FL and finally I decided that Fl would be the cheapest so I would go with that. Thing is, I still have picked an area in Florida! I got engaged in June 08 and am getting married in June 09 no matter what so its taking me a long time to figure this out so dont worry! Youre not alone! Good luck to you and remember--the truth is that if the two of you are meant to be together itll be great no matter what!

  7. I have a reception space rented that is supposed to hold up to 150 people but the guest list have expanded and Im getting concerned as to if I need to cut back on people or not. My question is, when they say the capacity is 150 people...is this after taking out space for the dj's equipment or anything else? I know this is a dumb question but it had me thinking!
  8. Im doing something like that too with our favors. I have seen before where you can have someone stand there and pass out the favors to ensure everyone gets one!
  9. I wont be having any bridal party at all whatsoever. I think it keeps it simple and is cheaper!
  10. Im throwing around the idea of having a bridal shower right after Christmas...the 27th or 28th..mostly for my convenience bc it will be held in a state that I do not live in. Do you think this is a good idea being so close to Christmas? Also, how far in advance should invites be sent out for a shower? Thank you!
  11. I should prolly mention that wedding/honeymoon would be set for the second of third week of June 2009!
  12. Hi all! After months of pondering, my FI and I have decided to have a private wedding (only the two of us) on a beach in Florida and then stay at a reasonably-priced (thinking 200 or less a night) for the honeymoon at the same location. We dont want to do it all in the FL keys but cant seem to pick a location bc there are just so many beaches!!!! Ideally, we are looking for a beach that is within walking distance of our hotel, not too overcrowded, and offers a lot of area for swimming with possibly a "swimming with the dolphins" experience." We really just want to hang out together at the beach all day and it would be nice if the hotel/resort offered a pool or two as well. I was hoping you all would have some suggestions and any would be sooo appreciated! Thanks everyone!
  13. THanks so much for posting all of that! I am a soon-to-bride wandering aimlessly over Florida websites for location info so this is really great and gives me something to go off of! Very sweet of you!
  14. We were hoping for about 200 or less a night and a place that offers pools, some privacy, and is right on the beach. I have found two places that Im really interested in but I was curious was anyones thoughts/opinions were on them. One is Key Largo Grande and the other is the Sundial resort. Thanks again and I hope to hear some good things!
