I didn't even think of the singles! That makes sense and I am sure that it would've dawned on me at some point. Glad to have seen the light before ordering anything though!

Christine - what did you use for your bag? I think I know what I am putting in there, but the container part is where I am getting stuck...

Areyou doing individual bags? I was thinking just 1 bag/room. Humpf.

I am beginning the process of gathering the information for my OOT bags and was hoping you all could give me ideas. I have one place that I liked that I found from someone (or many) others on here, but wanted to view other options. My sis and I are also talking about perhaps making simple little totes for the OOT bags, but I don't want to commit to that before finding out that I don't love anything else. So please post a pic of the OOT bag you are (or did) going to use. Here is the one that I already have bookmarked: Welcome to Ailana Kai

I am unsure on this also. He would LOVE bd pics, but I hate getting my picture taken and can't imagine that I would be comfortable doing that. He just got a nice watch as a gift from his cousins wedding party. I am hoping that something will pop out at me in the next few months.

Damn, I think I should make a trip to Mexico and get it down. A full body lasering! Maybe next vacation... :-P

My parents are giving $10k, and his parents will match that. Matt and I are also paying for our own travel and my sister and her 2 kids. The $10k from my parents is subject to change. At this point they say they can't come with us, so I have told them to use the money out of that for their travel. They are refusing at this point. (Sometimes I think my mom just likes to make me cry.) Matt and I have almost $10k of our own saved as well, so we are looking in pretty good shape. Oh, and my mom has a separate budget for my wedding dress that she is paying for. Anything over $1k, I will have to pay for myself. We hope to pay for everything in Jamaica ourselves and use our parents money for the AHR and leftover for savings for a house. Also, Matt's parents are paying for his brother, sister, her husband and their two kids to come. They are all part of the wedding party and the only one who could afford to come on their own is his brother, so it is awesome that they are doing this to help out.

Wow, Anny! That is super-cheap! I jsut priced out a full brazilian and it's $1,000, with discounts. I am pretty sure I am going to do it...

When I was dating an ex a few years ago, I had packed on a few lbs. Just about the only thing we had in common was food, so we ate all the time and ate alot. Almost as soon as we broke up, I decided I needed to get in better shape and I just watched what I ate. No snacks at night, better portion control. I didn't work out at all, cuz I am lazy about that. I lost probably like 15 or so lbs. It took kind of a long time (6+ months?), but it was easy and I felt much better. Perhaps if you took a more involved approach, it wouldn't take so long. I mean, I still ate everything I wanted, just smaller portions. So perhaps if you do the smaller portions as well as cutting out some goodies. Good luck!

However, check EBAY. I have them email me when one gets posted, which is fairly often... Adrianna Papell Floral Silk Halter Dress Ivory Multi 12 - (item 160144175742 end time Aug-10-07 11:27:51 PDT) - size 12 There are new ones posted there usually more then once a week. If you can't find one, I would call the store headquarters. that is what I did and they tracked them down in various states and had them shipped to me. Nordstrom shipped for free, but Dillards didn't.... Good luck!

That is what my bridesmaids are wearing and I am so tempted to just borrow it for a wedding this year, cuz I love it so much!

I think fuschia or orange (or a combo of both!) would work as the accent color. I am using blue, orange and fuschia, so maybe I am biased...

Shelley - try this thread. I tried searching all over, cuz I swore that someone else talked about it, but this was the closest I could find. http://bestdestinationwedding.com/fo...first-diy.html I know this isn't exactly what you needed, since it is for messages in a bottle, but I swear there is a thread talking about this before! Good luck!

My cousin (I hope no one she knows is on this site!), but when she got married her last name was changed to Laycock. No hyphenate, but I think that is a pretty bad one. My FI also has a friend last name Wonderlich (wonderlick). There are just some times when you might not want to change your name!

I think the pics are great! Your photog did a great job! I love all the colors you used, beautiful pics. Congrats!
