  1. What Maggie dress are you looking at? Maybe we could help you find it for cheaper than you saw it. I know that Wedding Dresses | Prom Dresses | Bridesmaid Dresses | Bridal Gowns | Bridal Store Online | BestBridalPrice.com has many Maggie dresses at great prices.
  2. I like the brighter colors in the second one but the look of the first one is more stunning so my vote is for #1.
  3. I just sent in my small donation too since every little bit will help. I know Robin and her family will appreciate it! Thanks so much for organizing this.
  4. Hi Anny, Were you happy with your wedding cake from Pastelería Italiana? I was going to use the one from the FAC (although I don't know it they make it in house or get it elsewhere) but they are charging $8 per piece. That will be one expensive wedding cake since we are expecting about 100 even though we won't get a cake that big since a lot of people don't eat it. Thanks, Melissa
  5. Oh my. This brings back some great memories. I was born in 75 and I remember just about everything on the list but the 80s were great too. The Dukes of Hazzard one made me laugh because it was oh so true! Kids nowadays just don't have it as good as we did! HAHAHA
  6. Leticia ~ Your dress is gorgeous and I know you will look fabulous in it! Isn't it wierd how we sometimes just happen upon things. I went to several places looking for my dress and I probably tried on 50 different dresses. I liked parts of each one but not the whole thing. Then last Thursday on my lunch break, I decided to go to a boutique by my office and try on a couple more dresses. The first one I tried on I just knew it was the one. I couldn't believe it. It was the strangest feeling. I just knew it! I hadn't even planned on going and I didn't have my best friend with me and I found it. I also am in shock!! Congrats to you and please show us photos of you in it when you get it!!

    Hello!

    Hello and welcome. I was in the same boat as you but this forum has been fabulous. Just take it one thing at a time and it will all come together. The hardest part for me was picking the location and you already have that down. Let us know what we can help you with. I know Galit is getting married at the OGX. I am sure she will give you a lot of information. I was there on a site visit and the resort is very nice. Best of luck!

    Hi!

    Hello and welcome. You are definitely in the right place.
  9. I love the SM sweetheart neckline the best. You look fabulous in it. I really loved this dress too when I saw it online and wanted to try it on but I never found it in a local store. Jay's Bridal online has the dress for around $850. Jay's Bridal & Special Occasions - Jay's Bridal & Special Occasions I am not sure if this is a good site though. Best bridal prices also has it available online and I have heard great things about this site. I am not sure how much it is though because they want you to call. Wedding Dresses | Prom Dresses | Bridesmaid Dresses | Bridal Gowns | Bridal Store Online | BestBridalPrice.com They had my dress for $250 cheaper than in the stores plus most dresses include free shipping.
  10. The green dress is gorgeous so I also say GO GREEN! Is this dress also from Nordstrom?
  11. I finally found my dress at a local boutique but I saw it online at bestbridalprices for $250 cheaper. Raeka ~ Did you receive your dress yet from bestbridalprices? How has the experience been? I am just worried that the dresses aren't authentic or the material is different. Thanks.
  12. Davids is having another one of their $99 bridal gown sales. It is from November 3rd to November 19th.
  13. My wedding is at the beginning of May and I did not send out STDs. Like everyone else said, the people that we really want to be there, already know about our plans. Many of them have already booked even though my FI and I have not. I think that is kind of funny. We are both commitment phobes. Oh well. I think you will be fine with just invitations but don't wait too long. (I should take my own advise. I haven't even started on my invites.) Plus you will save some money by doing invitations only and not both.
  14. Welcome to the forum and congrats on your engagement. I am getting married in Cancun but I looked at many places along the Riviera Maya. Please let me know if you have any questions. Melissa
  15. This was also a top priority for me. I have been to many places and have seen the brides lined up (so to speak) and I really wanted to be the only bride. One wedding per day would have been great but I am getting married at Fiesta Americana Condesa in Cancun and they only do one per weekend!!
  16. Welcome to the forum. You could try Omni Puerto Aventuras Omni Puerto Aventuras Beach Resort - Luxury on Mexico's Mayan Riviera It has only 30 rooms though but it was a very nice place. I was there on a site visit but decided to go with a different location. Emmanuelle, the WC, is great! You could have the wedding on the patio area that overlooks the ocean.
  17. FI and I are going to do a mini-moon and I am going to plan it. I am actually not going to tell him where we are going so it will be a complete surprise for him. Since we will be married in Cancun, I was thinking of Villa Rolandi on Isla Mujeres or head south to Ana Y Jose in Tulum. Decisions, decisions.
  18. Thanks. She is a toy poddle. I used to think that poddles were those really yappy dogs but she is so precious and calm and loves to be held like a baby!
  19. Today at work I received a catalog that I thought some of you ladies might be interested in. You can find all kinds of items for OOT bags (i.e. luggage tags, emery boards, dum-dum suckers, lip balm, mini frisbees, stress balls, pens, etc) that you can put your logo on. The prices seem to be very good too. This catalog is actually geared towards advertising for a business but a logo is a logo. Check it out. Promotional Products by 4imprint inc, Custom Imprinted Promotional Items, Advertising Specialties - 4imprint.com You can also save $25 on an order of $250 by using coupon code C765. The offer expires 12/31/07.
  20. I might also be interested in purchashing some. Please keep me updated. Many thanks, Melissa
  21. My FI and I also want to switch hotels after the guests leave. We are not doing a big honeymoon as we travel to amazing places every year but we do want to get away as husband and wife if only for a few days. We will be married in Cancun and will probably honeymoon on Isla Mujeres at Villa Rolandi. Another suggestion might be to take the ferry over to Cozumel? Check out Reviews of vacations, hotels, resorts, vacation and travel packages - TripAdvisor There are many hotels that are very reasonable in price. Good luck!
  22. I am actually lucky because my FI is as much of a clean freak as I am. The house is always clean and he never leaves anything laying around. But the thing that bothers me so much is that he never tells me things until the last minute. I am as much a planner as I am a go with the flow kind of person, but he will call me at work at 5pm and tell me that there is a family dinner at 6pm when he knows I usually work until around 6pm and it will take me at least 40 minutes to get there. Although he knew about it for a week or more. Or just recently I found out that he had already purchased a ticket to fly to Budapest (I knew that he was thinking of going and I am excited for him) but he bought the ticket weeks ago and "forgot" to tell me. Once he received his itinerary he could have easily clicked on the forward button and done! It isn't as if he is going to see a friend that lives 20 minutes away. Guys just don't think sometimes but you have to love them!!!
  23. Check out Oriental Trading Party supplies, crafts, party decorations, toys: Oriental Trading They have some colored ones for $1.66 each.
