Welcom May, like Christine said, I am getting married in Cuba. I did do a ton of reasearch, so feel free to ask away. I have been to Varaderro twice, but I am getting married in Holguin. I heard Holguin was the most beautiful place in Cuba and the beaches are the niecest there, so that is part of why I choose it. PM me if you want, or start a thread in the Cuba section and we can talk all about it.

That was a lot of work, good for you. You must feel so proud because it looks awesome. That is way to much work for me, I will just buy one. lol But, I have a great store in the city that sells veils for an awesome price.

I have never heard of it, is it a TA or a travel company?

Great job Melissa, that looks really really good. Good for you. Did you put the seam on as well (the ribbon at the bottom) or did it come that way?

It is just a really old saying about what days to get married. Sunday was a religious day, so you never got married on Sunday. We are getting married on Wednesday. Partly because of this saying (I know it sounds cheesy, but I like the idea of luck) and partly because its mid week and I like that. Also, its a less busy day to get married on.

Its one of my favorite flowers, so simple yet so beautiful. I hope you get to use it.

I was so busy yesterday, that was not able to make sure you got your butt to the gym. Glad to hear you did.

I think you should let him wear it. I really don't see it being an issue at all. Its totally up to you, but if you are not totally opposed to it, then just let him.

OMG!!! You girls look amazing. Ann, those are awesome legs. Sarah, what are you talking about with your complaints of being with the skinny girls, you look unbelievable, seriously. Lenita, you are one hot lady. Seriously, you girls look great. Leigh, when will you be in Toronto. I know I can get some of my friends together to do this, they would love it. I totally want to do this now.

I want do to the same thing, make a donation. So, I am interessted in hearing what others have to say to this question. I think the place we are making a donation does have cards though, so that will be a lot easier.

I am sending Save the Date magnets, they will go out next week. I ordered them from Magnetstreet.com and paid under $200 for 100, shipping, and all taxes. I will add in a sheet I am going to print out that tells them to RSVP on our website. Once its gets closer to the wedding, I will send nicer invitations to the people who have booked and are coming. This way I will avoid spending too much money on sending nice invitations to everyone. The save the dates are really cool and have all the important info on them.

I found this site today and I thought it had some information that some people would find useful. It also has a checklist. Wedding dresses and planning advice | Brides.com Hope it helps someone.

Good job Ann. Its good for the body and the mind to try new things. Keep it up.

Check out Shape.com they have tons of exercises for every part of the body. And, you can click on the body part you want to work out and it will give you a huge list of exercises. I love this site for workouts. Oh, I forgot, there is always an ad first, you have to click close this ad and then it goes directly to the site.

If so, I think there was someone else on here who did something or knew someone who was a wedding planner in Orangeville (I can't remember which thread). I don't have a planning company yet, I need some experience first, but thanks for mentioning me, I appreciate it. Welcome Debbie. I have a friend who lives in Shelburne, so I have been to Orangeville many times. Let me know if you need any help with anything. I am getting married in Cuba, but was a BM at a wedding in Punta Cana last April.

We are looking at planning a simple beaching wedding in July and are looking for as many tips as possible. I am from Canada but living in Thailand so if anyone has questions about weddings here feel free to ask and I will try to help. Welcome. I went to Thailand a few years back and I did not want to come back to Canada, I loved it there, the beautiful beaches, the friendly people, love it. What are you doing there? You have come to the right place to get help for your sister. Let me know if you need anything.

It took me so long to get over my stomach flu and to have the strength to work out again. And, my first class after my illness was really really hard. So, take your time, do small things if and when you can, like take a walk. I did make it to the gym today, I did 50 Mins of Cardio.

I did not know they did lessons first. Plaza does, we did that for my best friends stagette there and had a blast. Have you ever been to El Covento Rico? Its a blast, there is a drag show first and its so much fun. Just a thought. I hope you have a great time, I can't wait to hear about it.

Where are you going? El Covento Rico? Plaza Fleminco? there are so many, lol.

Is there no way to convince your sister to have the stagette on another night? If not, then I agree, go hung over. A stagette is much much more fun than a shower anyway, so go hung over, its not your fault they planned it that day, knowing when the stagette was, its theirs. Are you going to clubs in Cambridge?

That is what I was thinking as I typed it.

That is too bad, I was so excited to tell you about them when I saw them. Maybe I can take a picture of them for you. Then again, I am sure it would cost a lot to ship them too you and you would be better off getting them on line.
