Here you go: http://bestdestinationwedding.com/fo...necessary.html

I didn't even see that one there, it sounds almost exactly like the one that you ordered before...perfect!!! Here is the link so the other girls can get a preview (if you don't mind): Style Merry Bridal Gown - Wedding Dresses

They had my size in stock and it's being shipped TOMORROW!! I also got a slip, tiara, and garment back for $600!! That includes shipping, tax, the dress....everything!! So it all worked out in the end! Thank you so much for all your help and encouragement! And thank you Lizz for taking the time to post all those links . This really is a great place! It's amazing how people from around the world that you don't even know are willing to help! So glad you found something! That was really quick!!! Make sure to post pictures after you get it!

I just signed on after a few hours and am so glad to see we reached our goal, I knew it would happen fast! Tammy, I think that is a great idea for your future baby's room...you're not a dork at all, it will be so cute!

I'm glad they decided to come, even if it is such late notice. Try not to stress over it and DEFINITELY do not go wait at the gate in your dress!

So I'm not going to have a private reception b/c not only is that money to rent it out it's kinda pointless. So I'm gonna just do the semi-private in one of the restaurants and have dinner together. What my ?? is is what restaurant would be best and or what restaurant do I have choices of? Any help is appreciated. I know there are threads on the restaurants but I can't find them and I just wanted all my info in one place easy to find? Sorry. I think the only restaurant that you can have the dinner at after the wedding if it's less than 50 people is Mammee Bay. Am I right, girls

I really enjoyed busting my ass to come up with a plan in order to stop hearing about how I'm keeping FI from his friends and they have to do a 'drive-by' with their presents for him because of me. And now that I've planned everything with 30 people in mind---- starting with the trip to the casino, the nice sit-down dinner, the custom cake I already designed and ordered, and the private party I arranged for at a local pub------ NOW you feel the need to tell me that only 6 of you are actually going to attend because you have other shit going on. Signed, The mouse who just ran circles in her wheel for NOTHING! (PS- You can fucking forget whatever brief idea flits into your ADD minds when his 50th rolls around----I'm taking his ass out of town and turning off the phone so you can't call him at 6am on the weekend to see if he happened to watch some obscure interview on TV the night before) Oh my God...I would FLIP OUT if that happened! So sorry, Maria.

Christa, it's true, you do have a lot of other options. I personally wouldn't feel comfortable working in an environment like that either. Let us know what you end up doing. BTW - love your new name ("Step monster"/"Chauffeur")...lol!

I can't help you with your resort question, but wanted to say anyways! Happy planning!!!

Good luck! Let us know what you find!!!

What a great idea, Alyssa! I'll give $10 too.

to the forum! I agree with what everyone else said...look around at the info posted here and get a better idea of what country you may want. About the size of the resort... I picked a larger resort, so there would be more restaurants and bars for my guests. Also, because I don't know if I want to be running into my FI's mom and family 24/7 (lol!). I also think small and intimate would be cool, but it's your personal preference.

That's so neat! What a nice painting!

I sent mine out about 1 year in advance. I agree the sooner the better, so friends and family can save money/take vacation days/etc. As soon as you have your location and date nailed down, you should be able to get started on them.
