Thanks for posting! Great information

Tammy, those cakes are great! your guests will love them. Now did you figure out if you are going to bring them out later or have them out already?

I know that really sucks they can't do the lanterns! I do like the floor lamps! I was also thinking of doing the luminaries with our monogram on them around the dance floor? Do you think people will knock them over?

So you should be ok.. maybe try to push it forward 15 minutes, but ask your photograher like Natasha said, they will have a better idea based on that time of year. Thanks everyone for the advice! I think I will do 6:00, since we are just having a spiritual ceremony! I think Juan said 6 was better than 6:30! Thanks again

Tammy I like #1... Yes they are used for funerals but so are alot of other flowers! I know alot of brides that use them! I really want to use them as well, I think they are so elegant!

Hey ladies just wanted to let you know that Mariana got back to me on the lanterns for Cascada Terrace and she said it is a no! The maintance guy told her that the space was too big. So that sucks! I really wanted them. Anyone else have any different ideas?

wow! I feel really bad for this girl! I will definitley learn from her review though! Thanks for posting!

Natalie, I really like them! Thanks for sharing!

ashley welcome and you will find all the information you are looking for on here to help you figure things out!

Hi E & K and welcome! happy planning!

Welcome You will find the forum to be very helpful!

I voted maybe because it does depend on the dress! I really want to be able to make either a christening outfit out of my dress for my daughter(hopefully) or a first communion dress! I think that would be cool. I would also like to donate it as well though too, so i'm not sure! I really have to find a dress first!!

Meahgan thanks for your review! it has been very helpful! I was debating on the mariachi band and I definitely think i'm going to get one! I'm so confused about the time and now nervous because i was told the sun was going to set at 8pm. so our ceremony was set for 6:30 but now i feel like that is wrong and we will have no pictures in the light! I better figure this out!

Should I get a package then you think or just do everything on my own?

Wow Tammy, I have just spent the last 10 minutes reading all of this! Ok my opinion... I'm the type of person that can't keep anything inside of me!!! I did that for along time in my life with my ex-husband and I gave myself an ulcer(sp?) So now if something is bothering me I tell that person up front and depending on how they are saying it, it goes back the same way!!! Tammy, I definitely think you need to say something to her about everything that is bothering you, what is the point of keeping it all in? Like you said you are miserable over this and you can make yourself sick! She needs to be put in her place and realize that she is not in control of the situation. I definitely would make and list of everything that has been bothering you so if/when you are telling her you don't get flustered and forget everything you need to say. I do agree with the other girls that sometimes it isn't good to stoop down to someone's level but this situation is out of control!! Cain needs to support you all the way and let his mom know verbally that he supports you 100%. Maybe when she see's him put his foot down as well, she will come to her senses. Sorry but if she doesn't right away I'm sure eventually she will. I mean she won't be able to keep away from you guys that long. She really doesn't have anyone else to go to!!! It will be hard telling her everything that is bothering you because you know that it is Cain's mother but come on this women as put you through hell for quite some time and no one deserves this! She knows she can and she will keep on doing it until you put a stop to it!! Did you ever see that movie with J-Lo called monster-in-law? This whole situation makes me think of this! This is just what I would do! Good Luck! I'm thinking of you!
