  1. Trip advisor can really F with your head! STOP LOOKING AT IT!! Just have faith in your original decision & remember, it's pretty hard not to have a good time when you are on vacation, on the beach in Mexico, add some margie's or Coronas, and what's not to love? It will be fine.
  2. Yup - I started about a month ago. Started real slow & built it up. I really wasn't going to because I gave that up a long time ago. But my MOH started tanning & I'll be goddamned if she's going to look better than me at MY wedding! LOL Also, being tan has improved my personal body image. I don't know why, but being tan make you look thinner.
  3. Leigh - it looks great! I like the color scheme - very different, and also give you a lot of options moving forward.
  4. Leigh, I can't see it! It's just a photobucket error in your siggy... OK, my siggy isn't working either! BOO!
  5. Hi Bradley! Welcome! I'm getting excited to meet you in just over 2 short weeks....you are my photog for 3/17/07 at Cabo Surf!
  6. Melissa - great purchase! I love that top. Totally either with jeans or trouser shorts & heels. Love it!
  7. Why are you torturing yourself by trying to plan an at home reception? Can't someone else do this?? Your mom? Seems like a lot to deal with all at once!
  8. Welcome to the forum Laura! I'm very similar to you in that I never had a "dream wedding" at all...I really didn't even think I would get married. I thought this whole process might be painful, but with the help & enthusiasm of the girls on this board it's actually been kinda fun! (shhh, don't tell). The beauty of a DW is that you don't have to live up to preconcieved notions/expectations...you can really make it your own.
  9. OK, so it's seriously getting down to crunch time here...I need to figure out what flowers to order! (we're making our own bouqet's & centerpieces from bulk flowers). I'm partial to gerbera daisies....this one is really pretty:
  10. I just ordered these from zappos.com to add to my wedding week footwear! They are from Nine West, so I'm counting on them to be comfy
  11. Well, I don't even know the name of some of them. The worst was an old song from Ace of Base I think "all that she wants is another baby...." Umm, what? Also some random country songs - he doesn't even like country. Who is this man I'm marrying?? I think he's just been copying songs into this folder as he comes across them - I hope he plans on combing through them...I will encourage this.
  12. Cool Liz! Good to hear that idea has worked. We are planning to use our ipod & speaker for our dinner & dancing (or partying) music. I put my FI in charge of creating the playlists. This morning I was on his laptop uploading photos & came upon his "loose collection" of songs. I really really hate to say this, but I'm going to have to delete at least 5 songs on that list....what was he thinking?? I don't want to hurt his feelings, but wow...wow is all I can say....

I know, I know, I already told you this but you and I joined the forum around the same time and it feels like we have been planning our weddings forever now, so I'm a little excited.. :-) Tee hee! I know! It's like this train ain't stoppin'! FI said the other day that we are definitely on the "downhill slide..." I think I should start packing so I can get a grip on exactly how much crap I have to manage....

  15. I tried to take a pic with her surrounded by the chair ties - she did not like that at all! Her name is Brittany. She's very focused on eating, sleeping & grooming these days...she only gets a burst of playful energy about once a month. LOL
  16. And for those of you that are interested...here is the rest of the cat Can you see how interested she is in the chair tie photo session? This is the pose my FI refers to as the "Ana Nicole Smith"
  17. OK, here are some pics of my actual chair ties in Aqua 136: without flash with flash
  18. I only have one BM & I bought her dress ($100), I am going to give her a very pretty starfish necklace that was approx $45. I am also paying for her hair & make up ($225) up as well as a pedicure the day before the wedding ($50). Wow - that's $420!!! I think I'm good... Andrea - that is a very generous thing for your bridal party! That is wonderful if you can do it.
  19. Tasha - you are a good wife! Is he going to have a golfing partner? I've heard great things about the Cabo del Sol course from avid golfers. It's designed by Tom Weiskopf & is considered a championship golf course. I think that would be a good bet.
  20. Yeah, that's whack! I would look into different resort options if possible. I mean, can they offer you a cocktail & horsdeuvres hour at some point between the end of the ceremony & dinner? And what does "private dinner & dancing" mean? Do they offer other options??
  21. Dammit! Sorry girls! I'm sure there are equally cute dresses out there somewhere....I did order this other dress I thought was cute:
  22. Natalie - it's for the chair ties only. The hotel already has the white chair covers for me.

Hi Nicole! long time no see! I will try to post a pic of my actual ties either tonight or Sunday. I'm headed out to Paso Robles tomorrow AM for a wine tasting weekend w/my MOH!
