ohohoh i love it!!! i love the bottom, so awesome!

jenn - have a fantastic time and enjoy every second of it!!!

we're date twins!!! our rehearsal dinner is at barcelona tapas, and we'll be doing a canopy tour, but i don't know where yet.

i like that font better, and i like it in yellow!

i like the two photos, but agree about the font..it definitely needs to be darker, and i'm not sure i'm in love with the font itself...i almost think it's too stuffy (for lack of a better word) for pics on the beach....

my fi is wearing a white linen suit w/ a white linen shirt under....he's planning on getting brown sandals ... i can't see wearing dress shoes on the beach....but that's jmo

as of now, we're just doing oot bags...my ? is how long will your guests be in mexico before the wedding? will they need the stuff in the koozies before the wedding?

hehe, this is the one we got for one of our cakes...we'll pose like it too!

hi jessica! i'm a dreams bride and from nj too! which dreams are you planning to be married at? i didn't sleep for weeks after i got engaged...there were a few times that i'd be up for 40hrs straight...it'll calm down - or get some lunesta!!! welcome and congrats!

thanks a lot ladies....$350 later..............................

what's their return policy? anyone know?

i'm such a bitch no oot bags, and make sure that during the reception, you ask them if they've had enough to eat...say you were worried b/c you had paid for XXX and then the last minute guests REALLY threw off your food estimates....then smile and walk away. didn't we just talk about how people suck?!

sleeping late is good b/c then you can eat more of something yummy or something that you probably shouldn't eat it's 18 points per day for anyone under 150 lbs; plus the extra points that you get for the whole week...

I ordered mine last week and should be getting in any day now, so I can always give mine to you (it's blue) and you can get it back to me before May. That's plenty of time. And it can be your something borrowed AND your something blue!! ladies, please, no fighting ...carly, if you don't mind, i'll borrow yours... that way, jenn, you don't have to rush to unpack, etc. i'm leaving 2/12 and will be back on 2/23, so plenty of time before may, or i can ship to jen - you just let me know. if you DO wind up getting a journal, odds are, i won't really write much...so don't be offended, i'm just way too sarcastic and obnoxious to be sentimental thank you both for allllllllllllllll of your help, i really appreciate it! btw jen - you are OBSESSED!!!

at the very beginning of this, my fmil said that we'd find out who our true and dedicated friends and family members are...and (while i hate to admit it) she was so right...we wanted 10 people at our wedding, and then i decided to invite my aunts, uncles and cousins, so he had to invite his, and then friends, etc. so 115 people later, none of the people we want there will be coming, and a bunch of people that we barely know (his parent's friends, my 2nd cousins) will be there...our rsvp date was 12/1 and we're still waiting on close friends and family that said they'd come... the hardest part for me now is deciding what to do about all of these people from this point forward...i'm not mad, just disappointed...example: a college friend is getting married in july. it'll require a night in a hotel, a gift, plus the shower and bachelorette party. now, she didn't come (or even rsvp!!!) to my shower, didn't rsvp to the wedding (she's obviously not coming) and won't be at the bachelorette party (didn't rsvp for that either)...do i even bother to go to her wedding? these are the dilemmas that i'm left with....

I am not doing the meetings and am just doing this on my own. A coworker gave me the book. I weighed myself yesterday and am going to only weigh myself on Sundays. My goal is to lose 15 lbs this year and a total of 20 lbs by June 09. I feel good about this. I hope it works. I am going back to the gym tonight too. I have not been in 2 months and can't wait to get back. I think this forum will be helpful especially since I don't go tot the meetings. We can support eachoother i love ww - it sounds so cheesy, but it really is a lifestyle change rather than a diet. but make sure you eat all of your points!! if you don't, then you're depriving your body of what it actually needs.

have your checked out VerseIt.com? they have a wedding w/ children section. here's one example: Through marriage we are given the gift of a new beginning, a new family and a new life We, Bride and Groom along with Children’s Names invite you to witness our beautiful beginnings on Day Year at Time Location Address City, State

leigh, when will you be there?

sneeze on all of them. eff them all.

i think they look great! nice job

mo, i'm so sorry to hear this...you're in my thoughts...

he should wear a speedo and a fan that hangs around his neck. kidding. your fi could wear anything linen - maybe a short sleeve button down and linen pants...you could get him a linen suit and wear the jacket for pics, but i do agree that he'll roast if he wears it the whole time. i also think that khaki matches most colors, maybe khaki pants and a white shirt...or all white for your fi to make him stand out. your bms can wear almost anything as well...give the guys a boutinierre in whatever color the bms wear to match the bridal party.

i like the first one best. the other two are much more formal looking - prob b/c of the material...

i tried on the first one! i love alfred angelo dresses, esp their destination line (which no one carries...) are you going to keep looking, or is this 'it'?
