Amy Thank you! That was a nice little treat.

Wow that's a pretty good deal then. She did a good job Drea your hair looked realy pretty half up My resort wants a 50% deposit down, so I'm thinking of going elsewhere. I don't know but for some reason I'm not getting a good impression from the salon at the resort. Not very organized, months to reply to me etc.

You two are so sweet! You have a wonderful husband and that must have been so helpful aproaching the whole DW as a team. Heck, that's what marriage is all about, right? I'm so happy you both are on BDW now sharin your experience. It's a treat to look forward to your postings as a couple. They're so sweet, cute and a good sense of humor in the mix too

Hi Erika, I really lucked out and found my girls dresses on sale after Christmas! I wanted to purchase them for the girls as they are already paying so much for their trips. All I can suggest is check out the sales racks. You never know, especially now that fall is comming they will try and get the summer dresses sold for the new season. Good luck

Hey Sarah, I absolutley love the siggy with Edyta, you and Tammy. You gals are such dolls. The added roses in the background and the font are such a great match! You are very talented in putting these together, very tasteful

That's cute how Frank wants to keep it as a secret. I think that's really sweet. thanks for sharing it with us, it's a real beaut. You have good taste

That would be so much fun, too bad i don't live closer

You 2 are so cute, what's the outfit this Halloween?

Amy are you interested in the "Blu buy out" package? That seems so cool! I def can't afford that though. Is your hotel nearby Blu? Mine isn't, it's all the way out in Nuevo Vallarta. i think I would be better finding somewhere closer to my hotel. But who knows.

I would write a quick link in the email attaching the registry info. We're having the same issue, whether to do it or not?

seems pricey and that's why I'm trying to see what else is out there in the first place. I'll continue hunting this week I guess.

OK well I haven't got the official posting from him cuz his computers on the fritz BUT here's what he emailed me so far: The packages that are available are varied and range in price from 1200 pesos per person to 2000 pesos per person. Depending on the number of services and the number of people involved there can be a possible discount. Then there is what we call the "blu by out." You basically buy the salon for the day and any and all in your wedding party are welcome to come and enjoy the pampering that only Blu by Len can supply. This also includes lunch Champagne or Bloody Mary's. Depending on the time of day of course. The service is done on a sliding scale, and is negotiated with our Bridal Consultant Clay, and myself. It also requires a 50% down non-refundable deposit. As do all our Bridal services containing 5 or more people. I will send you a separate e-mail later today with a break down of each service, a-la-carte, so you can make you decisions from there.

So pretty! I love all the colors with the gerber daiseys! You guys looked like you had a blast! I'm so happy for you!

IMO I think you need to actually try on the veil with your dress which may be hard if your dress is being ordered in. i know my veil kind of takes away from the lacing in the back. I think I'll be a last minute decider. great tip Paula, would have never thought that if you didn't post it. THX!

I love those cake toppers! What the ring bling wasn't good enough girl? You now need more... lol

Another guy! Welcome Martin. This is quite the place to be. I see the ladies are rubbin' off on their siginifcant others. hehe Warning this site is very addictive

Just watched it again... It's such a beautiful piece of work. I really adore your flowers too. I never thought of using orchids before but they look really nice. You and cain are such a sweet pair!!
