Amy&Andy

Yes, those colors are beautiful together. I love it!

OMG your hair and dress looked so amazing! I love the pics! More More More!

Geez...what an interesting name...these poor celebrity offsprings and their strange names. I bet she's a little cutie though.....wonder how long til we see pics on every mag cover

So sweet ladies! Thank You! So...on this note, I asked Andy after I got home with the dress what he pictured in his head, and he basically said something "very simple, with a bit of embelleshment (maybe a bit beaded he said), form fitting...kind of flowy.....maybe a little bit of lace..." so he should be pretty suprised. The whole time I've had him thinking that I wasn't wearing a dress that was very "bride-ish" and more just evening dress like. He loves me in lace, so he's going to die! Thanks to my little "sexy" chicken cutlet boobie additives I actually have some cleavage....he'll be happy For those that asked...this was a huge PITA for the seamstress. She said she's never had a dress this tough before. The battenburg lace is pretty rare on a wedding gown, and difficult to work with. I really had this vision in my head of a sweetheart neckline and interesting back, so I pretty much just drew it out for her and had her work her magic. She's pretty amazing.

Hope you had a wonderful day! Can't wait to hear...and see....all about it! Congrats!

YAY!!! I picked up my heavily altered dress on Saturday! I had the neckline changed to a sweetheart and the back lowered and changed to lace-up. Oh my goodness....it fits like a dream and is so much more comfortable now. I felt claustrophobic with the higher neckline and higher back.....this feels so much better! I was soooooo nervous that I wouldn't like it, and hadn't tried it on since the changes were made.....2 weeks before we leave! I'm more than thrilled! HERE ARE THE BEFORE PICS: AFTER PICS!

Beautiful Amy! Just gorgeous...I love the blonde in your hair now...it's so warm!

Wow Jackie thank you so much for the review! I'm so thankful you went over everything in such detail. It makes a few decisions for me that much easier! I'm looking through the pics next...!!!

Wed: did cardio Thursday: did push weights Friday: pull weights & 45 min cardio Saturday: Walking 1 hour for Relay for Life from 9am to 10am; going to gym for weights with Andy.....then going for my final dress fitting! Sunday: pull weights; 60 min cardio; packing...which will be a workout on its own

Jackie.....where are your pics there chica? You know we are all dying to see everything and hear how it all went down!!!

those are very pretty and elegant! I would wear that long strapless one as a wedding dress in white, it is so so pretty! Good job on the color, that purple is gorgeous.

Today I think I went through every packing list thread on this forum to put together my list for packing our boatload of stuff we are hauling down to Mexico. I compiled all of the info I got from the posts into one master list, so hopefully this will save some time for other masterpackers out there.

Tammy had tried...but with no success. My job here is done.....he's on his own....Tammy told Andy to have him camp on the beach...best idea I've heard in a long time

Yeah, I need to put down the tripple americano and take a breath before I unload on Andy. I'm having a bridezilla day today and went off on him at lunch saying I want this whole thing to be OVER with! two weeks...and counting down

Thanks ladies....I jumped the gun....can you tell I'm under a wee bit of stress today...I found this map as well: Los Cabos Tourist Corridor Map - Cabo San Lucas to San Jose del Cabo I agree....no all inclusive. I'm just pissed I'm doing all of this research for the dude, when it's his fault. Of course the bride comes to save the day and make sure the best buddy is there grrrrr.

Andy's best friend has waited until the last minute to book his room at Dreams, and now they are all full. He NEEDS to be there, and Andy would be devastated if he didn't make it. What other all inclusives are close to Dreams? It doesn't have to be super nice, just within walking distance to Dreams. He will probably end up paying the day pass for a few days ......what a moron.

Definitely agree...no alterations and no bustle. I think the dress is soooo pretty! I love the cut of the front. You've been kicking butt with your workout and diet, so I'm sure you'll have more than enough room to zip that puppy up! Congrats on finding something! You had me real worried

You're blonde! Looks like fun....and you know what they say about blondes... Your outfit was cute

Happy Anniversary! glad you got a nice goody already good job Cain!

Oh wow....hang in there and trust that not only will things get straightened out....your terrible sister will get what's coming to her. I'll be thinking of you tomorrow! Stay strong

Nice! I still need to find my something borrowed! Thanks for the reminder

wow, great pictures! You two looked great, and I loved your centerpieces and shoes...very cute!

I LOVE your dress It's such a perfect fit for you!

Jessica I can't believe I'm seeing this thread first thing this morning! Yikes! The time has flown by! You projects are just perfect....everything looks so classy and put together. I am so impressed with your OOT bags....they look gorgeous!

Oh my those were fabulous! Are you sure you two weren't models in another life. You both looked amazing, and I adore the end of the video with the mariachi...so sweet. I can't wait to see all of your pics! Welcome home
