I am not sure if anyone has seen these before, I hadn't, but they are called Bubble Markers and you can get them at Michaels 36 for $14 and they are so cool. These are small enough to bring along, or put in the OOT Bag and they look so nice. And, you can have bubbles after your ceremony. Just an idea.

Probably more fun without her. Don't worry, most wedding parties have at least one of those, its normal.

I just right clicked on mine and hit save as, and then hosted it in here. That must be why mine is so small and everyone else's are so big. It works though, if you can't figure out a better way.

Here is my other one. How are you guys making yours so big, mine are tiny.

Ummm...Tammy, I did not see this post, thanks for moving my thread. DOH!!!

What do you guys think? I think they are beautiful. Good find.

I am ordering a dress online and so I looked into customs. For an $800 dress it will cost me around $200 for tax and customs and stuff. So, I don't think it will cost you that much money on $500. Apparently you can go to this site to find out more info Welcome to the Canada Border Services Agency | Bienvenue à l'Agence des services frontaliers du Canada I have not checked it out yet, but Net Bride sent it to me to find out about the customs. Hope it helps. As for buying from Ebay, I have boughts lots of stuff from ebay as well and never had any problems, but not a wedding dress, sorry.

I hope this worked, here is my first collage from Celebrity look alike. Its so much fun.

Alright, so its not celebrity gossip, but its soo much fun, I did 2 differnt pictures and both times got lots of people, but Kirsten Dunst the most, I don't agree, but at least she is cute. Have fun. My Heritage Celebrity Collage If I can figure out how to post my results I will. I would love to see everyone's, if we can post them.

Hey Melissa, this is the site that describes the Wendi Plan. The Wendie Plan Its weight watchers, but it just describes how using all your points and varying them daily will help speed up your weight loss. Check it out.

okay, I have not read anyone else's posts yet, so sorry if someone already said what I am going to say, but I want to tell you a story. For my sister's wedding, one of her BM's caused me nothing but added stress. She hated all my idea's for the bachelorette and all the other BM's loved them. So, after stressing about it, I finaly replied to her last email and told her that I had enough. It was not her day it was my sister's day. And, she is my sisters friend and should do the things that makes my sister happy because its her wedding and her day. I also told her that she was being selfish and I was tired of trying to come up with something that she would not say no to. So, I said this is what we are doing and if you don't want to be there, that is your decision but, when you agreed to be a BM, you agreed to do all the things involved and the bachelorette is one of them. I was harsh, but I am telling you, I had enough of her. My sister agreed with what I said, I asked her first, and actually said it was better if she did not come cause she would be worried about having to entertain her and make sure she was okay. And, she would have made it obvious that she was not happy to be doing it. So, I say tell your MOH what you want to do most and those who do not want to come, that is up to them. You can't make everyone happy and this day is not about everyone, its about you. So, focus on making yourself happy for once. Your real friends will come and will have a good time because they want you to be happy. That is just my 2 cents.

The thing about WP though, is its easier cause you have a day with 35 points (for me anyway) and I can push bad things I want to eat aside knowing that I can eat them on my super high day, which is Saturday. So, I will save treats for those higher days, that way I know I get to eat them, just not today. Know what I mean.

I think if you use light cream cheese and low fat cheeses, this could totally be diet friendly.

Good job Jilly. Did you happen to read the information I had posted about the Wendi Plan? That might help you with breaking that 10 lb mark. I am not at home this week, left on Thursday, so I have not been able to weigh in. I will next week for sure though, and hopefully it will be something good, I have been pretty bad lately, I have to get back on the plan ASAP.

Thanks, I will make them and tell you how they turn out.

These sound soo good. Not so good for the diet I am on, but maybe if I use Splenda Brown Sugar, and light butter. lol will they still taste as good?

I am in. I love recipes, I don't always use them, but I love them when I do want to use them

But I've heard that it will all be worth it. -fingers crossed- It would be a great help if anyone has been married in the DR. and are from Canada, but then any help would be greatly appreciated. Have a great day. Hi Suse, I was a BM at a wedding at Sunscape the Beach in Punta Cana last April, and we are from Canada. Also 2 of my friends got married there within the past year. So, I am sure I can find out the info you need, just let me know what you are looking to find out.

Ummm...I love Splenda. I can't use other sweetners, I think they taste like chemicals, but I love splenda. Its made from sugar, so its supposed to be better for you. I will see if I can find that article I read about it. I don't like Stevia, I tried it, cause I liked that it was organic, but I think it tastes really strange. That is just my opinion.

If anyone is buying anything from weddingchannelstore.com, if you buy $75 worth of stuff type in the code WELCOME and you will get $10 off. I hope that helps someone. They don't deliver to Canada, so I will not be using it. Enjoy!

Thanks for asking, I would have felt like an ass if I did not go and I was bugging you about going. So, we both have to go from now on.

That would be great, thanks so much for the offer. Ask them to take pics of any weddings that are going on. lol

Huh, did you look on the site? I can't imagine they will give you a better deal than Sell Off though, that would surprise me. I did a lot of research for my friends wedding in DR last April, I found no matter where I looked, sell off was always the cheapest and, any TA will honour the price you find on Sell Off.
