Bambi is the person for hair. Thanks for posting the link Natasha. I was just checking out their website and saw that they do a bachelorette spa-tini party. Looks like something I might check out for my girls! I'm so glad to hear you are getting things resolved with the resort. I hope the rest of your time before your wedding goes smoothly. I am so excited for you November brides!

Yay! Put it on- can't wait to see it You know better than to tease us with a dress and not post pics

If I remember right it's up there with LasVentanas and One and Only Palmilla. Maybe Tammy would know better...

I agree with all the girls- share your decorating tips with us and keep in touch! Eventually we too will be able to talk about something besides wedding dresses, coordinating issues and stress! I also like Tammy's idea about writing a horrible review to post everywhere...A little blackmail never hurt anyone!

TammyM, are you planning to visit Esperanza? If you're visiting the more upscale places, I wouldn't miss that either. Some of our engagement pics were taken there and the resort looks absolutely gorgeous.

Christa, that dress is soo cute and appropriate for the venue. I can totally see you in it. Make sure you post us a pic of you in it once you get it and decide if you're keeping it!

Very cool- this is a great travel reference! Thanks Kash

omg Raina that sounds so awesome! I can't wait till you get back to hear more!

I found my dress!!!! Yay! It's in this thread: http://www.bestdestinationwedding.co...2278#post12278 I'm going to use my other dress for my AHR. We're going to have a "beach party" theme and it will work perfect.

So this week I went to my hometown to visit my parents, and my MOH who was visiting her parents. We went dress shopping on Tuesday and I totally didn't think I would find anything. I have been in every store in Lansing and couldn't find anything that really jumped out at me as "the one". Well, I found it! It was the second dress I tried on. I knew as soon as I put it on that my search was finally over. It is totally different than anything I would have ever pictured myself wearing, it is so simple, but yet screams WOW when I have it on. I've never had a dress do that before. I was really sad because I love the side gather style and the pick ups, but because I'm so short those dresses just don't look quite right on me. This dress it exactly what Jeff has described too, so I know 200% for sure that he will love it. Sorry about the pics, it's so hard to get a good dress picture! Close up of bodice detail. This is the only detail on the dress. Notice the top is champagne colored and the bottom is white. I love my veil. It is as long as my dress and has scalloped beaded edging with a waist length blusher. The back just has buttons all the way down and there is the same detailing as the front.

Quote: Originally Posted by EDYTA lol Tammy you crack me up....I orderd it in July I believe and they said that it would come in around December so once it comes in I will take pics and post them....but than I have to wait about another month or 2 for them to do the alterations for me, I'm changing a bunch of things to the dress so hopefully they will finish by April cause I leave the 30th...... exactly 6 months today till I'm married I can't believe how quickly time flys Yeah, I just realized that too. Oh my GOD I feel like i have so much to do now!

I know you signed a liability release, but if you have pictures of the dress before and after I don't see how small claims court could not rule in your favor. Tammy- Judge Judy...you are hilarious!

That is too funny! I was planning to let my out of town BM pick her own dress and she just got a boob job. Hmmm.....maybe I'll rethink that idea!

Yay! Congratulations girls!

Yay! It's party time Happy Birthday Raina & Happy Birthday Tammy!

Yay MariaElena! You soo deserve it- you are the most organized person I've ever seen! Congratulations and I can't wait to hear all about your wedding

Yay Jackie! Way to go...It's hard to believe you've only been here a month!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JENNIFER! It must be fun to have a halloween birthday! Hope you have a wonderful day!

Welcome Monica! Good luck with your plans

Very cute. I'm sure these will come in handy...

It seriously is soooo hard to motivate to exercise! I know what you girls mean. I know I would see results so much faster if I'd get off my butt! Kash- you will never guess how many points I consumed on Friday- 65!! Is that not the worse thing you have ever heard? I used all my flex points, all my points for that day, plus extra on about 6 hours of eating. lol- I'm so embarrassed! Hang in there- you can do it!
