i agree that i usually see a stamp - but not sure what to tell teh Jamaican folks!

welcome, Niki!

i wouldn't be surprised if it was $12 or more, like you said, once you throw in teh packaging i'd have to buy (or whoever ships). again - totally willing to do this for you - but not sure if it would be saving too much $$. just let me know!

congratulations, Stephanie! and welcome

FYI - I am watching this thread to see if i need to do anything ...

welcome Dawn! let us know if we can help you at all. i think we even have some 2009 brides on here!

welcome to the forum! i think most girls on here had a spiritual (non-legal) wedding in Mexico, and then just did the legal part at home. but i do know there are some gals who were married at a catholic church. it's a personal preference!

lol - not sure about "dying to plan" - but i would LOVE to help! just let me know if you need me to do anything. like i'd obviously need some list of what to order, and who it goes to, and when you need them (just in case anyone needs rush delivery or something), etc. if you all want to put your orders in this thread, and PM me an address i will put it into a spreadsheet. i await instructions.

i'm not getting any Pash's - but I am totally willing to be the shipping address and handle everything getting them sent to everyone. I am working from home, so I am here all the time and can get packages. Just let me know! I also have PayPal and can send/receive payments.

oh yay - another happy wedding! it's so exciting to see all of the June/July weddings actually happening, I feel like we've been waiting so long. Congratulations!

i'll keep an eye out for anything else ...

welcome welcome welcome! i was just married at Las Caletas (Puerto Vallarta) in June. let us know if we can help at all! any ideas on location yet?

it's definitely not your typical BM dress. i like it, but it is more of a "sassy" dress then a traditional dress. if you're comfortable with that - let her go for it!

good choice! that's the one i would totally wear again.

I'll bring the dress..maybe she did exaggerate about her weight, but I really don't think so. what about 1 of the other girls getting a slightly different dress? then it would be 2 and 2! or just take the dress you have with you shopping so you can match the color - it seems like there are a lot of similar style dresses - that would be ok, right?

LOVE them! and i think that pic was lindsays ... how perfect!

congratulations! i'm glad you did get to have your beach ceremony afterall! and i cannot wait to see your pictures!

Scrapbookdepot (not sure this one is in the US!) Lavender Lane Crafts - Starfish Printed Vellum A4 (nor is this one!) maybe call or visit a local craft store - they often have a decent variety

Quote: Originally Posted by akh you're in a tough spot, for sure. i really wouldn't let the dress thing keep you from having her in your wedding if this is what you really want! it's just a matter of what to do about it. how close are the blues in the dresses we found online - did you ask the Nordstroms people (not sure they'd know)? is there a real similar dress in a matching color? not many people would notice (or care!) if there slight differences in the style. it's probably easier to hide a style difference over a color difference. maybe 1 girl could get a dress to match the new girl - then it would be 2 in the "old" dress and 2 in the "new" dress. girls often tend to exagerate their size ("oh my god, i am sooo fat!")- maybe she is not really that big? can she try on teh dress and then you go from there if it doesn't fit? any of these an option? (i love quoting myself!)
