Here are my STD's....I sent them out months ago but never took any pics....better late than never!! http://i236.photobucket.com/albums/f...avethedate.jpg http://i236.photobucket.com/albums/f...omodations.jpg

Happy Planning!!!!!!

Congrats!!!!! Your ring is gorgeous!!!

YEA!!! Congrats on setting the location and date!!! I started with a TA about 9 months before the wedding. She really has been great. I am about four months out right now......April 11th is right around the corner!!! The only things I have gotten done are my STD's, my dress, and my bridesmaids dresses!!! I am going to Cancun December 3rd to do all the details!!! I can't wait. So you have plenty of time.....but it definately goes fast. Enjoy!!!

We also have about 90 guests coming and didnt even give the option for them to stay at another resort. The whole point for us to have the destination wedding was for everyone to be on vacation together in the same place. Plus day passes are so expensive that if you have everyone stay at different resorts it would cost an arm and a leg. Our TA gave our guests many different options for their length of stay plus land or air only (some people have miles). Booking a TA was the first thing I did, and I am so glad....she is like having a second coordinator. Any time I cant get in touch with Daniella she calls her and we get an answer right away!!!!

I just went on Travelocity and from Chicago leaving on monday and getting back on thursday it was only $700 includes everything!! Then I emailed Daniella and we set a time to meet up on Tuesday. I am meeting with my photog on Tuesday night!! (Claudia Rodriguez)

I am going to Dreams on December 3rd for a site visit and to pick out everything for the wedding. If anyone has any questions or wants me to take particular pictures just let me know!!! I am so excited!!!

For me...weighing myself everyday is motivation. Sometimes I slack off but that is the great thing about WW you can slack and then get back on track!!!

Michelle08......hang in there you are doing great for your first month!!! There will be times when you dont lose and you'll gain......you just have to stick with it and not give up!!! When I would gain...I would take away bonus points for the week!!

No I didnt exercise during WW up until this past week (I want to get toned for the wedding) They saidd to not try and diet and exercise in the first month or so of the program b/c it can be too hard. which I would findn to be true.....when I exercise I am 10 times more hungry!!

Coming on a little late...not on the forum much...but with my fast approaching wedding I am trying to get on here a coule of times a day My fiance and I started WW Last January and lost almost 30lbs!!! I became a lifetime member in may and have actually stayed 10lbs below my goal weight!! If anyone ever has any questions let me know!! Here are some websites I couldnt have done it w/o: Dining Out Guide with Weight Watcher Points, eat right & lose weight! Dotti's Weight Loss Zone - Food Lists, Menus & More Weight Loss - Restaurants - Fast Foods - Nutrition Facts - DietFacts.com One Point Snacks (1 point snacks)--secrets of healthy weight loss with weight watchers point list.

What a great review!!!! And I love your pictures!! I CANT WAIT to get married there!!!
