  1. Ouch, nasty is all I can say... Your FSIL is probably thinking that the Mayan wedding is going to be beautiful, and there's no way she can compete with just a local wedding, so when she found out that you would be doing it, she all of a sudden thought "Why can't I expect my friends to pay to go?? She is!" I know if I was in the same situation as your FSIL - I'd be very disapointed that someone else was going to go with the wedding that I wanted, but don't worry, I'm on your side, she had the chance to go with it, and decided against it... Hopefully she'll either A) come to her senses or the whole family will rally behind you, and tell her that they wouldn't be able to go to her wedding, because they'll be at yours. Just make sure to keep us updated as to what happens!
  2. I will probably end up with 2 MOH's. My best friend - who I've always wanted as my MOH will be one, and my sister the other. Mainly because I know she's dying to get married, but it doesn't look like it's going to happen any time soon, and this way she can help me organise a few things and feel part of it. Now I just have to remind her that it is actually my wedding, and I don't care if she looks good in blue, my wedding colours are gold and chocolate!!
  3. I just realised I finally have something to contribute!! Here's my engagement ring: BTW - Lil miss frogg, your ring is gorgeous!
  4. I'm hoping to keep ours to the $20 000AU mark. Hopefully that will include pretty much everything - maybe except for things like shoes and jewellry...
  5. I don't want to change my last name either. It goes so well with my first name! I hate the thought of having to spell his surname to everyone I give it to, and it doesn't sound right, and hyphenating it sounds stupid too...

And make the joke at the end. I really hope your fiance has a fast recovery. Its great that your able to be so strong for him. Best of luck! That's exactly what I would do. I know some people have suggested being direct with your friend, which is probably the best or right thing to do, but this is what I'd do, mainly because a confrontation with a friend - regardless of how close you've been recently - isn't always the best thing heading up to my wedding.

I found the people to be super friendly and kind. Best wishes, Tod Yeah, we're great people!!! hahaha. Thanks, it's always nice to hear we're nice people. Apparently we make terrible tourists though... Thanks everyone else for the warm welcome!
  8. Hello! I'm a new poster, but I've been lurking for a little bit. I've had a search around, but so far I haven't seen anything quite like I'm after... What I'm looking for, is some examples of letters or emails or anything like that, that was sent out really far in advance of the weddng - in my case, it will be roughly 2 years... I want the letter to explain that we're considering a DW, where it would be and a rough date for it. I'd like to find out from the newsletter how many people would consider being able to make it, and how many couldn't possibly make it. I'd also like it to explain, that whilst we would love for them to be there, we will understand if they can't make it... Has anyone done anything like this? What sort of response did you get? Can I see a copy of it to read through your wording? Any suggestions would be great! Thanks!!
  9. I'm new too. Congrats on the engagement!
  10. I'm not engaged yet, but we've picked out my engagement ring. It's up to him now to buy it. I really want a Disney Fairy Tale Wedding at Disneyworld. So when we do get engaged it will be a long egagement, so we, and all our guests can afford it! I spend a lot of time on the wedding forum at disboards.com I'd like to have a March wedding, for two reasons, it's a pretty good time of year in most places, plus it's not close to any birthdays or Christmas - I like to spread my pressies out througout the year Failing a DFTW I'd look into hiring a villa at Tuscany and having it there. Right now I'm looking into the best way of telling everyone that we're having a DW, and that whilst I'd love for them to be there, I won't be disapointed if they're not... Any ideas? Thanks!
