Congratulations. You looked beautiful.
Thanks for all the pictures..it does look beautiful there. You got me excited.
You said in your review, Michael will not allow the guests to take pictures  ?
did they give you a selection to look at for set up of the gazebo (aka for upgrades, examples you could do)?

Here are some pics of her doing the cake in the room: Shutterfly Shutterfly Shutterfly Shutterfly

They do give you examples of upgrades for the gazebo as well, but if I remember it is really expensive for the upgrades. I know there is a thread that has all the prices and photos of the upgrades on here as well. If I can find the thread I will give it a bump for you.

the music...you said you hooked your ipod up to speakers
I am thinking I don't want the steel drum band..but was wondering if they had something to play music with.
Can you get these speakers anywhere??
