Congratulations Shelley! I'm sure your day will be filled with hapiness, love and laughter!

Mmmm I have everything BUT the cream cheese. I'm so going to make this. I love chicken wings so i already know I will love this. thanks sarah

I'm curious to see what else you buy cuz all that stuff is perfect!

SO far it looks like Fl isn't going to be hit, which is good. But incase I spent last night looking up pe friendly hotels in Kentucky and S.C I really hope galit is OK. They officially called it a hurricane and are projecting its going to get much worse due to the warm waters. Did she board the plane this morning?

Very nice, you did a wonderful job.

Isn't there a good bakery called "pie in the sky"? I think thats the name and I've heard good reviews. Jamie that's awesome girl, you need a break

Welcome to the forum. Your villa looks AMAZING! Good luck with finding a photographer

Hi Erink wow November is comming so soon! I'm a PV bride as well

Hey Shelley I didn't even notice you're day was aproaching and your invite is still in my documents. hehehe Have a great day with Ian

It's a pretty decent promotion for me, so I was nervous about letting my boss down, but I think it'll go well. When Aaron picked me up from work, I couldn't stop talking about how it went and he just said, "You haven't been happy for two years (work-wise), I'm so happy to see you leaving work with a smile on your face, you deserve this moment." Aww, it was so simple, but omg, so true; I haven't been happy with work in ages. Anyways, I thought of you guys today at work, lol, but I still won't be on the forum... SO MUCH WORK! I promise to stop by as often as possible though! Thanks again for the good luck wishes. You guys are the best!! TWO YEARS! You poor thing. You deserve this girl!!! I'm very happy for you but yes we will miss you. If I surpass you in posts (which i doubt) you're in trouble

that is soooo sweet! gosh that's the best welcome into a new family!

Mmm Buffalo Chicken Dip, that sounds really good.

Laura; I would have done the same thing. because next question they ask is what did you put in it, how did you make it etc etc and I am NOT a good liar. hehehe Thats kinda funny she said that though

Hmmm what about a private villa? I think sol had a slideshow from a private vila and it was only immediate family. It looked so secluded and private AND it was in St Thomas too (I think). Anyway welcome to the forum and good luck wit the planning

You must be thrilled courtney! I can't wait to hear about your first day Good luck!!

sorry thread hijack but Sarah I think you really have an eye for DIY projects. I know it's been said before but all your projects turned out so good. And now I see you making your siggys. I think you have a creative outlet - have you ever thought of doing some stuff on the side? Quote: Originally Posted by NurseSarah It sounds like you have found a great resource at a reasonable price.

If you have found a designer that can work within your budget and give you the look you're going for, why not? Especially if she's going off a design you've picked, you still have your hand in it, just not all the hassle. I guess it just depends on how much you like projects. I wanted to DIY as much as possible, and although it's not always cheaper it was rewarding for me to do it...

thats such a good price Paula! do you have a picture of them?

My gosh.. I wish I would have thought about doing my own more thorough Paula, I can't imagine making 75 invites. I wanted them to be over once I got to 20. Lucky me I only needed 25 But still mine were so simple but still so time consuming. I can't even count how many mistakes I made and had to scrap it because I wanted them perfect. I do love the idea of home made invites BUT you don't want them to look like they were assembled in a quick manner. Do you know what I mean?

Oh wow looks like you guys had a blast!!! So much fun. Thanks for posting, keeping us pic crazy peeps happy

I'm so guilty with the tv remote... lol

SO ADORABLE.. i love love loooove those shoes! You find the cutest things laura!

welcome to the forum keatra. Good luck planning

I'm sure it will be a gorgeous day for the happy newlyweds!!!

I know we had people inquire about different non AI resorts as well. And J's dad is staying at another hotel. We advised him that the hotel is charging us an $80 fee for every guest who is not stayin at our hotel and if he decided to stay somewhere else he would be paying the $80 day pass fee. I feel horrible making him pay it but we already have expenses that we are taking care of for our guests (champagne, appetizers, etc) and as long as we're upfront about it they know what theyre getting into. DO I sound harsh?
