Happy birthday Rebecca! I hope you have an excellent day!

Wow! The TTD picture is hot! You are such a beautiful couple. Congratulations!

Hhhmph! no pictures! ~tsk tsk~ Erica~ Can't wait to see them!

Hope you are having a wonderful birthday! (You are catching up to me, hehe!)

I do, that is what I was going to have. I am just afraid they won't get me the right shade of orange... Mango callas These might be a little too dark Bronze

Oh I love that one! It is my style. I bought my sister one at Bed Bath and Beyond that was void of frills: Lenox :: Opal Innocence™ Ring Holder I like the one you found much better! I had found a plain stainless one, but all I could think about was the noise it would make when I placed the ring on there - that it would be like nails on a chaulkboard!

Thanks Angela! I was just going to order from JeanM. Does anyone have Plum Party coupon codes?

Sweetness!

I keep trying to vote for medium, but it's timing out on me. The shaved look suits you as well (sorry Heidi)!

Congrats Claudia & Sean!

It all looks great Jill! Love the colour selection. I am so excited for you, your day is almost here!

Thanks for the advice. I will definitely check out that book Jamie, thank you. Sounds like I have to work a different muscle group (from the way I have been) to get the support I need in that area. I had a massage a little over a week ago and she made it hurt for a bit, but then it felt better... but I cannot afford that all the time I would like one at least once a month though. I have gone to the chiro before and did help with a different pinched nerve, but due to a recent experience my FI had, I don't think i will go to one again. The time I took muscle relaxers, I was in such pain I could barely walk Amy. Your poor brother! I am definitely not that bad now. It's just constant and I need it to stop! Thanks again everyone.

I have had an irritated sciatic nerve since my early 20s. When I first got it, the shooting pain was so bad the doctor gave me muscle relaxers. They made me a loopy for a few hours, so that was not an option. It comes and goes, but now it's more of a dull constant pain on some days. I use a heating pad to soothe it, and I have been doing back and ab exercises to strengthen that area, which was the advice from the doctor. Does anyone have any advice as to how to cope with this? Accupuncture? Certain yoga exercises? It's a pain in the a$$, literally.

Thanks for the reponses! I was including them from the beginning, so it will not put me over in the invite order. I guess since they already told me they cannot travel, I don't want them to think we are looking for gifts by sending them an invite. They know we want them there and we have told them we will have an AHR that we hope they can attend. Thanks again!

Congratulations Mo! I hope your day is perfect!

...two friends that will not be able to go to our wedding because they are now expecting right around that time? I had sent them STDs back in July. I think etiquitte says to send even if they they have said they will not be able to attend. In this case, they won't be able to changes plans to go... What do you think?

Ay Edna! That is so exciting and we are so happy for you! You'll have to fill us in as soon as he makes the announcement!

Thanks for the responses. I wouldn't say it's formal, but it's not very casual either. We are adding it to the bottom of the Travel & Accomodations insert since it is pretty short. Here is the beginning of that insert: We will be staying at Dreams Cancún All-inclusive resort. We recommend this hotel and hope you can join us. For information on the events surrounding the wedding, including travel assistance, please visit our website: www.

Please take a moment on our special day to include us in your thoughts, you will be in ours.

"As this is a destination wedding, we completely understand you may not be able to travel to Mexico for our marriage ceremony.

I think that last sentence sounds a little funky, almost like a sympathy card, any better way to state it? Thanks!

I agree, you have plenty of time. It hit me last week I had three months... now I need to get into the DIY stuff and I don't want to procrastinate and try to do it all the last month. Time is usually my motivation and you have plenty of it right now:)

Congrats Lizzy! That was a long wait... my FSIL was in the same time Bella had started I thought. Congrats once again!

Congratultions Natalie and Lance! What wonderful news!
