My goodness... You girls are so far ahead of me lol. I don't even have a clue of how many people are coming so I haven't even bought a thing for my OOT bags. And for the starfish you can use them for anything! Decorations on the tables even.

Wow!! All of you ladies are way ahead of me. I am so far behind that the thought of going to the courthouse has crossed my mind
I thought I had picked a location but now I can not get the WC of the hotel to respond. I don't even have a wedding contract. All I have is my wedding dress, plane tickets, and room reservations. I am so stressed out!! I hope that made you feel a little better because you could be worse like me = )

Aw, well if you need help with anything let me know and I will see if I can help. I don't have much done at all.... I am afraid to make a list for fear i will realize how much is left to do lol. I am waiting until June to do it when I know I will have some stuff done.

If it wasn't for my mom buying my OOT bags and stuffers, I wouldn't have them yet either. She was concerned that by the time we had to buy them, they wouldn't be in stock or the prices would hike up (because I would probably have purchased them during the peak of wedding season). We kind of already had an idea on the number of people that were going, so we just purchased a little over that number just to be safe. I requested an RSVP by June 30th, so I'm hoping I don't go over the number expected!

Thanks, I am really about to go bridezilla on them. I just hate that they are all on Mexico time, just relaxed. I have emailed so many times that I think soon she is going to block my emails. I also called and finally got a hold of her and she promised to send me an email with more information that I need and that never happened. I need to send out my invitations but I don't want to put this hotel down if they don't want my business. Ugh so frustrating!! Well I will keep everyone informed, writing about it somehow makes me feel better.

Have you bought your dress yet? It takes forever to get, well my is taking forever. I don't know how it works anywhere else but I ordered my dress in the beginning of February and I'm not getting it back until the end of June! The best advice I could give is don't try on too many dresses. I made that mistake and had so many dresses on my mind until one day I went out and finally said this one is it. Well hope that helps = )

Thank you, if you need any help too I will be more than happy to help. Do you know when is a good enough time to send out wedding invitations? I have not sent them out and don't know what date to put to reply by.

I never sent out STD's so I am sending out my invites next week. I am putting June 15th as an RSVP. I am not having RSVP cards just having them call or email me. Did you send STD's?
