Christine

Thanks ladies, Sarah I think you are right, that's a great idea...hmm I will have to find something.

I say #1 also Jilly great job on finding the dress for your daughter/moh/bm...she is going to be so cute up there with you Natalie, I love those dresses and think the broach is a great idea.

glad that worked out, do a trial run this weekend and take some pics...

I am so excited my favors came today. I am trying to get as much done as I can before I go for my site visit (well okay I am actually going to visit my grandma but we are doing a bunch of vendor visits that week) Anyway, here they are, we will attach a tag that says something like this You have been such an important part of our lives that we cannot imagine this happy day without your love and support. Thank you for being a very special part of our wedding day. Love, Will & Christine 7/20/07 (the last pic is the bottle stopper is in a beer bottle but you get the idea) I am really happy with them, they are great quality and I love love love them.

Carla, I love how you use the J to say haha...

Carla, its so nice to finally meet you!!! How are your wedding plans going?

we decided this is one thing we could live without in a way. We are going to set up a few cameras on tripods around the church and then record our vows using a digital voice recorder. I am not planning to try to match them up, but we are both pretty good with computers so we will make our own slideshow and maybe use our vows as part of the voice over? not entirely sure yet, but professional videography was not in our budget.

Ann, sorry I apparently have a short term memory so I didn't even think about it. you are right a password protected site is a great idea....

we want to see more-well any that you are okay with sharing!!! I totally want to do this now that you all did it and had fun.

Sarah, I think that dress fits you really well and will be perfect for your welcome dinner...

I say add some color with table runners and some tea lights.

candles are heavy so shipping might be expensive.

I have never been to a dollar store, but now I am thinking I might have to take a trip.

never heard of it, but I wish I had one.

what about ribbon instead of brads, because with brads its always hard to flip the pages. with ribbon people can fully open up to a new page, and if you get a festive color to go with your wedding colors it will look very nice.

something like please join us in celebration of our marriage for a fiesta....date, time, etc. I don't know that sounds weird, let me think about it. I know Tammy had an AHR maybe she can help better than I can.

Welcome, we have a lot of Cancun Brides. Anny is the moderator for that area and Jilly is also getting married at Dreams so I am sure they can answer all your questions related to Cancun, but if you have any general wedding related questions let us know.

Andrea, honestly I think you should keep looking around, you have so much time. I would hate for you to pick something out and by the fall hate it or wish you had gotten something else. Also keep in mind that by the end of the summer some of the shops might have things on sale because the new season will be coming in and they will want to get rid of the old stuff.

Thanks Sarah, I am a little OCD and since I only have 5 months I want to make sure nothing gets back ordered. I found the site I mentioned above and Ikea always has the off white, ivory ones...

I think he will get something personalized, I know he likes the idea of the cigar holder set.

Its okay Karla, most people are getting married in Mex, its easy to assume everyone is.

Scented Candles and Unscented Discount Candles Wholesale I think I might order from this site, because the shipping on the other one that Anny and I both posted is a little expensive. With shipping a 3x9 candle is about $5.50, more than I wanted to spend, but I will get the ivory candles at Ikea so that will save me some money.

I agree with Ann, make the best of it. Its really crazy that they changed it, so too bad for them if you are all hungover.

Amy is one of our PV mods and she is getting married on July 4, 2008 at Dreams PV. She can answer your questions, but I don't believe you can actually get many of the vendors at dreams, you will have to get them from the area. The WC will eventually get back to you, just make sure you save what you send her and what she sends back to you. Take a look around the PV area of the forum and I am sure you find some of the info you are looking for.

by the way the place that is listed there "the carneros inn" is a $500 a night hotel...so obviously whomever did these invites spend way more than my budget.
