Thanks everyone!!! Okay...as Jen asked, here are my thoughts! I REALLY wish that I could have taken pics at the bridal outlet yesterday!! First off the lady had me look at the dresses that were being sold as is which were supposed to be cheaper! I didn't like most of those and the reason I think is because they were NOT tight around my hips!! I didn't hate them but the best word I could come up with was that I felt "frumpy". Then I told her I wanted to look at the ones that can be ordered. So she showed me those racks and my sister and I picked 4 of those! I loved these!! I know the reason why is because it's similar to the maggie sottero material and almost identical to the pronovia material from the dresses I tried on last weekend and they were all very tight fitting in the hip area but yet still flowed! My sister agreed that these were her favorite too and surprisingly they were only like $599 and $679 or something like that! So we put 2 on the list and left (they wouldn't tell me anything about the designers either! ) Then at Davids, I was looking through the racks and kinda told the sale girl what I was looking for but I never explain myself well, so I'm sure I didn't make much sense. So I really didn't look through the whole store, just the 3 aisles she led me to. The problem with the dresses at davids were that they were now too simple I think from the ones I was trying on before and the material just wasn't flattering. I didn't even feel good in them and I got that "frumpy" feeling again. Also, I think I have decided for sure that I want Ivory instead of white because I think that was throwing me off a bit too since I am a very visual person and every single dress I tried in white I hated! Now my sisters thought were right in line with mine at the other place but then it seemed at Davids that she really liked those and she kept saying that she thought the simplicity of the ones there were more "appropriate" for the location (beach) than the other store because those were a little more formal and beaded (which I never thought I wanted)!!! I kinda thought she might be saying it too because of the price but we were only talking like a $200 difference. So I felt like she really wanted me to pick one of the simplier DB ones and that she wasn't understanding that I just didn't feel comfortable in them! So, long story, but I need to make a decision soon and I think I need to go one more time by myself ( I just like it better) and think about them all. I know I need to go with what I want and not what my sister thinks...but now she has me thinking that maybe I should wear a dress that is more formal or had beading?? I never thought this would be so complicated!

Okay...so you gals were so helpful in expressing your opinions of the dresses I tried on last weekend! Thank you! I went again yesterday to 2 different stores (one bridal outlet and David's Bridal) and I took my sister this time. I am so bummed because the ones at the bridal outlet, I really liked 2 of them!!! The style that really sucks it in but looks good and has that lightweight crinkly material (not sure what it's called?). The David's bridal ones I didn't like that much...I didn't try that many on because by the time I got there I was tired and I think my sister was too. Anyway...let me know what you think.... Don't mind my face in this one... To refresh your memory...these were the most popular ones from last time...

awesome pics susan!!!!!

very nice!! I like the color!!!

Happy belated b-day...hope it was a great one!

I don't think its too simple...but I like simple! I think if you love it then that's all that matter!

Great info!!! I actually thought about this..because I don't want to pay to have it done and I wear makeup but not much and I suck at eyeliner and eye shadow!!!

I'd highly recommend it. I'm still stuck on the pinata! So at what point in the evening did you decide to bust it out!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! I hope your day is great!!

So to clarify...the AI resorts will let you get a drink served in your mug?? Does anyone know for sure if Dreams does this?

Hey susan...thanks to morgan posting this in another thread, I starting looking over your DIY stuff and I have a couple questions... 1. Where did you order your travel mugs from? 2. How did you create your starfish on your logo and stuff? I love it because it's like the sugar ones..

Yep!! It sucks!!! When is your wedding? I have 7 months...but I need to really crack down!

Happy Aniversary!!! I Hope You Two Have A Wonderful Day!!!

I agree, I think it's a great idea and you are offering them enough colors to choose from and they aren't not off the wall colors so they should be comfortable in what you have selected. But yeah make sure you request it in a way that isn't demanding and more fun and exicted like explaining the theme, etc...

HAPPY HALLOWEEN EVERYONE...I will be in school all night so have fun for me!!

Leticia..you have an inch on me...but you are way tiny! I have a full day planned on saturday so I know I will be worn out!

Count me in!!! Here are my wants! 1. Gift cards (starbucks, old navy, target, macys, anything really) 2. I also like a passport cover if it falls in the $$ range (pink if they have it) Those are so cool!!! 3. Anything Pink!! 4. Games (card, board, etc..) 5. I like most anything, I am a simple person 6. Picture frames 7. Anything wedding

I also voted before I read them all and I love your decision!!!!

I voted for #1 because it's unique with the picture (non cartoon) behind it! However I think if you are going to print this on things, ect...#3 or #4 would work best and I would choose #3 over #4 because I am not a huge fan of the birds and the sun (I'm simple). I like the round though, so if you put the palm tree from #3 in #4 then I would pick #4!!! :0 Now that is a long answer!

Thanks for the feedback everyone! I too like the sand and starfish one but I needed validation and I think I got it! The only other problem is I am not hauling those vases to mexico and the vases Maye has are 4x4x9 clear...so I guess the height isn't bad but it's so narrow and it doesn't flare like the vase in the picture?? I might end up with a round vase instead because it has a bigger base...I don't know..I suck at anything design related. I guess that is what my sister is for though (interior designer).

But I do like the idea of alternating tables. How many tables will you have? I like both choices that you have listed though. The first is simple and pretty, the second is colorful and pretty. I will have only 4 or 5 and a sweetheart table but I figured I would just put my bouquet in that one...

Quote: Originally Posted by Wisco4 I love the first one! What about alternating tables between the two options? Hmmm...that's an idea!?? I will definately think about that. My problem is I can't be presented with too many options...

Thanks Jen!! Sounds great! I will definately keep you updated! I better call and make some appointments!
