relatively small...that is why we are having a destination wedding. Majority of our relatives will not come to Hawaii.

Thanks Christa and Ana! Christa – I feel so farrrrrrrrrrr behind. I think it is because I don’t have a dress yet. As far as invites, I have to share my invite story with you guys. It took me 5 months to find invites. I am soooooo picky. I was suppose to get them out Nov 1! But with the help of my Mom I got them out Monday…Whew!

Thanks everyone! Great Tips! I have been searching online extensively. I guess I need to just go try them on and DECIDE!

awwwh awesome idea

We debated this for some time and decided not to have an at home reception. We spent the money instead on a visit to another island: Maui

Ladies I am having the hardest time. I can’t decided on style or what is appropriate for the beach. Should I go formal? Not so formal….arrrgh! lol So how did you choose?? Was it hard? Am I just making nothing into something?? My sister says I need to just go try on all the ones I like and pick one! (that is like a lot of dresses lol lol)

Well my planning is coming along. I picked a wedding coordinator and package back in Oct. We are going with Aloha Bridal Gallery. We are getting married at Waialae Beach park at 5pm. This wedding is very small. No attendants. No rehearsal. No reception. We are doing dinner at Orchids after our ceremony. I mailed my invites on Monday . I still have a few things left do to: get OOT bags, get stuff for OOT bags, GET A DRESS, etc. The location and dinner are booked. I am just feeling anxious with 6 months left! When I get home I can post pics of invites, stds, potential dresses. Fiance’ and I have not taken engagement photos and we have been engaged since Aug of 04! I want us to take some for the Holiday season or Valentines day. Check out our website for more info. I will get my stuff up and running in here in no time. Our Wedding Website

Thansk you guys
