Courtney what I think you really want is just a thread to just (for no better term) "shoot the %$#$", say whatever you want, and not worry about getting off topic, am I right? Kelly~

I don't understand is 19 or 26 points better? If you are almost a size 6, then you must not need to lose much weight, I am a size 6, and I think that is a good place to be! Just eat healthy and exercise and I would think you should be fine. Kelly~

I am planning on tipping my wc with money and a little gift, I will probably tip the trio also. The dj is expensive so I am not sure, much will have to do with the job he does. The waiters will be tipped on how our service is, just like any other time. It is really hard to judge how much tip money to budget, I think I just need to be prepared. Kelly~

Rachelle, you looked beautiful. I would be afraid the sparklers might distract the guests from your first dance, what about when you cut the cake? Kelly~

Girls, sounds like more sleep is needed, less time wedding planning, lol Kelly~

Oh I am so jealous, time alone, can't imagine that. We are bringing our five kids with us (seperate rooms) so we can't go off and have a honeymoon the two weeks we are away for our wedding. Leaving the kids alone in a foreign country I am sure would be frowned upon, lol. For our honeymoon we were going to go to Jamaica in April for a late honeymoon, but you girls have changed our minds. We think we are now going to head to Cabo for some romance, so I am paying careful attention to all ideas and suggestions you girls have. Kelly~

Great web site, better proposal story, your a lucky girl. I wish I had the time, skills and patience, to do something like that. I can't even figure out how to put a picture of myself up for you girls to see. Kelly~

Oh so much fun! Bath salts for a relaxing hot bath, a deck of cards, personlized hot choc, slippers, if you have lots of couples how about massage oil, candles, and mini bottles of liquers. (don't forget the matches, for the candles) Kelly~

Congratulations, how wonderful is married life? It is so sad that it goes by so fast (the wedding, not the marriage) can't wait to see the pictures, I bet you were beautiful. Kelly~

Courtney that is a great idea. Poor Tammy, I don't know how she does all she does. OMG just wait till the baby comes, the poor girl will need a 36 hour day!!!! Kelly~

Welcome Morgan, I wish I had found these girls earlier in my planning, I may have done things differently. You will love everyone here, they will truly become your new best friends. Just be careful, this forum is a full time job, my children are voting to ban me from the computer, good thing I pay the bills. Good luck picking your resort, hopefully we will be able to help narrow it down for you. I am a DR bride, not too many of us out there! Actually is there any others out there? I can load you up on ifo for this area, let me know if you want to know anything. Kelly~

Awww, so very happy for you. Congratulations, and happy planning!! Kelly~

Lindsay, what a great picture! So Tara does that mean you are PV bride, and you won't be joining me as a DR bride? Kelly~

I can't see your pics, do I need to join to view? Kelly~

Tammy~ I think #2 is very poetic. I am a writer and most of the best written lines of all times are short and simple (and beautiful). I think these lines will have a greater impact on those around you. People (and men) have a short attention span. LOL Seriously, I feel that you poetically out did yourself with #2! Kelly~ Sorry I posted twice by accident. How do I delete this?

Wear it everybody loves looking at a bride. People will be thrilled to see you in it . Kelly~

I think you should donate it, it would be nice to know that some good. for someone else, came out of your past. To make someone happy on their wedding day, is great Karma for you!!! Kelly~

I don't know if I want my hair up or down, my hair is really long, really thick, and really curly. The heat and humidity will not be my friend. Thanks for some ideas, keep them coming girls, I need more. Kelly~

Does vaccumming the whole house, washing the floors, 5 loads of laundry, painting my sons bedroom, cleaning the kitchen 5 times,changing sheets on 4 beds, and carrying one 4 year old sleepy boy up two flights of stairs count!!!! Who the @#%$ has time to exercise Kelly~

I hope your day was all you dreamed! Kelly~

Congratulations, these girls are great, plenty of help and advice to be had. Kelly~

My teenagers are girls, they are a whole lot different than boys. Put him at a table where he might actually be a little shy, say if there are any teenage girls he's never met, that might intimidate him enough to behave. If not I think you should just split the teenagers up and scattter them at different tables, maybe two and two. Talk to him and tell him how important this day is to you, he may surprise you, and be the perfect little gentleman. Another option can you make him responsible for something, give him a camera and ask him to take pictures, run the music, help the guests find their seats. Keep him busy, make him feel important, and I think you will find he steps up and does you proud. Kelly~

Awww. I also have two 18 yr olds and two 15 yr olds (one of the 18 yr olds, and one of the 15 yr olds are mine), and I consider whoever gets to sit with them will be lucky, they are great. I love their ages, (and I live with them) they are freakin hillarious. Who ever sits at their table will have a great time. Kelly~
