:) I'm so happy right now.

Guess what! So I didn't leave to San Francisco.

I stayed here in Orange county.....the reason is because Erik and I have decided to Elope in Cabo when we are there this July 26-29. I called Maye and asked her if this was possible and she said yes. She asked me what time we come in on July 26 and I told her 2:30 and she said that she will meet us at our hotel that night (6pm) so we can go do blood work.

Then we would have ceremony on Sat. july 28.

She is going to call the judge on Monday and then call the private beach area to see if they are both available for Sat. July 28.

I ended up telling my mom since she was here to pick me up when I was talking to Erik to leave to San Fran. She said she would have to be there so now she is purchasing her tickets, along with tickets for my two sisters and my brother in law, two nephews, and my sisters boyfriend.

We are going to tell Erik's parents closer to the date and if they want to show they can show (they don't like Mexico so don't know if they will show)

I'm so happy. I have to call Manuel to see if he is available to take an hour of wedding pictures on Sat. instead of e-pics on Sunday. I'm crossing my fingers that the judge and the private beach is available.

Do any of you know of a restaurant where they have live entertainment or music for a reception area? My mom wants "The Office" but they only have entertainment on Thursday and Sunday nights.

Any help would be great.

Thanks girls.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

THAT IS AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!

OMG ANDREA THIS IS SOOO EXCITING!

I'm so happy for you- I can tell by your post that this is what will make you happy! Congratulations on getting the wedding YOU want. It will be perfect and intimate! Sorry I don't know much about the restaurants and bars in the area but I know someone will. Congratulations sweetie- this is wonderful news!

Now I really need to pick up my dress this Tuesday...I'm going to wait over the weekend Carol is still mad at me. I really need to get it altered.

I want to call Manuel now but I have to wait till I get the yes from Maye to see if the judge is available and the beach location is available too.

oh my gosh we need to go buy our rings too....

do I still register? I don't think we will do that.

We will maybe do it if we decide to throw a big AHR afterwards....

Congratulations! You sound very happy about this decision!!!

Congrats Andrea!!! wow!!!

Oh wow, that's so awesome!!!!

Yay!

OK - I have to say, Don Emilianos was the best food (world reknowned chef) and environment of everywhere we ate. They don't have live music, but the environment is so great that i don't think you'd miss it. There's an outdoor eating area that they can set up just for you which would be nice given the size you're quoting. The chefs son's name is Angel Salinas (his email is [email protected]). VERY nice guy.

Here's our menu (the Vermicelli soup was amazing):
