sounds awesome to me! not sure if anyone has done this.

I was wondering the same thing, who does a photographer hire as their own photographer? That's got to be a pressure job - knowing your client is a talented photographer as well!

do you mean instead of waiters serving the champagne? i guess i am not sure what a champagne interactive bar is! sounds cool though ...

those are great tips - and things that most of us wouldn't think of

i hope so. we have 4 units in this building, and have an association. the people upstairs are renters, the only ones in teh building. they're great people - i don't blame them at all really. BUT i do hope the owner realizes this is his responsibility. i think he will - since when he first found out about this issue from his renters, his first question to them was "did you leave anything on, did you do anything" - he was obviously trying to assess his liability. at the time we didn't think it was them since there was nothing obvious. i am hoping he makes this easy on us - i really don't want to battle over this! Paul is calling him tomorrow to talk.

I just had to vent, since I am working from home alone this week. So I am sitting at my desk around 3:30 or so, and I hear what I think is a clicking type noise. I go out into the kitchen to check it out, and I look up to see a drip from the ceiling (the "click" was the water hitting the floor). And the ceiling is bubbling, like it's holding a pocket of water. Crap. So I put a bucket underneath it immediately, and call Paul (who is in NC for work). Paul tells me to knock on the door of our upstairs neighbors, but they don't answer. At this time the UPS guy delivers my shoes (see other thread - lol), and my neighbor gets home. While I am in the hallway signing for the package, talking to my neighbor, and to Paul on the phone I hear a super loud GUSH - like someone dropped a bucket of water of a balcony. Oh no, it was my ceiling caving in. I run upstairs to see a pool of water in my kitchen, and the ceiling is still dripping heavily. I turned of my units water, and had my neighbor do the same. All of this as Paul and I are trying to rent our place. Right. Long story short (kinda), Paul's brother and dad came over, both are very handy, and took more of our ceiling apart, and dug in further, and went upstairs to my neighbors. Turns out they had a slow leak in their hot water heater drainage valve and kept a bucket underneath it. Oops - someone moved the bucket. Ugh. AHHHHHHHHHHHH! Like I need something else to deal with right now - I thought moving out of state, working a ton of hours, planning a wedding, etc. was enoughh! Here's my ceiling:

thanks Leigh! I am happy with how they turned out, given that it was my first real DIY project, and I don't consider myself the creative type. you can absolutely photograph it if you'd like! I am going to do my best to take one with me, but you never know ...

I am TRYING to work with Marilu, but just to plan my welcome dinner at Dreams PV. My wedding is offsite and I have another coordinator with that package. But Marilu has been plain ol' awful - she either takes weeks to get back to me, or doesn't at all. And when she does get back to me, she doesn't give me the details I was looking for. My TA (Tammy, the host of this site) has helped a lot in dealing with her, but she's still pretty bad. I actually don't know if we have any girls on here that have already had their weddings at Dreams PV - am I wrong?

well, well, well - THAT didn't make it in the slideshow!

Also, you can design your own shoes here ... Steve Madden DYO

Ok, I ordered these on Sat., and they're already here! I tried on the one pair just to see what they look like. Unfortunately, they're a little big - but I think they MIGHT work if I don't find something else.

oh, Sarah knows that pillow INTIMATELY!

wow - tough call! i think i like #2, but that might just be that piece in front of #1 that i don't like, like someone else mentioned. but you can pull both of those off very nicely!

Welcome Erica! There are a lot of girls that have or will be getting married in Cabo, so you came to the right place for help. Let us know how we can help!

i was considering this as well, so i had some links saved off. here are the links i had ... Beach Towels wholesale manufacturer of custom embroidered monogrammed bath towel for corporate events Jaquard Beach Towels Wholesale and Retail Beach Towels & Totes - Lands' End Invitations, Wedding Invitations, Save the Dates, Baby Shower Invitations, Birth Announcements, Holiday Cards and Stationery by Paper Style

I've had the same issues w/the Dreams PV WC - it's awful. Luckily Tammy (the host) has been able to help me, but it's still not good!

Welcome to the forum! I don't know that particular resort, but I am sure someone on here will. Let us know more about your wedding!

i just sent Nicole a list of things i like for the cake (pictures), and asked her a bunch of questions about music options. i work best under pressure, so i'll probably just save it all for the last minute!

you're way further ahead than i am. i haven't thought of any details like cake, music, hair, accessories, etc. - don't you worry your little type-A head a bit! heehee

Ooohh - thanks for the tip!

Actually, I didn't see these at first (I looked at "dress" style, not "city"): ALDO shoes - ALDO women's footwear for all occasions: dress sandals, casual sandals and city sandals.

I am - but they don't have many low heel options. <sigh> here are some red ones, Sarah - ALDO shoes - ALDO women's footwear for all occasions: dress sandals, casual sandals and city sandals.

that's what sold me - i like that antiqu-y look. it was $21 plus shipping - so if I hate it I am not out that much $$. if anyone cares - they do have this handbag in other colors too - turquoise, pink, blue, etc.

Ooohh - I do love Aldo. And I like the all white too - I am not a fan of the dark soles or even just where the bottom of your foot goes. Good find!
