Ok, so now I dont feel so bad. I didnt know if $200 was too much or not. I'm just glad nothing else needs to be done. Thanks for all the compliments. I'm getting more and more excited!

WOW! perfect Heidi

I had my first fitting today for my dress and it went great. It totally fits BUT it still need a bustle. Well its gonna cost $200 for the bustle.....is that normal? Here are some pics. I dont really have any of the back but I'll put a pic of the model up too so you can get an idea. Pinned with the $200 bustle Model

At first when I figured out the May siggy would be pets I was kinda bummed because I dont have any pets nor does my family. The only pet I ever had has when I was a little girl, Iesha, and I loved her to death. Then I realized I had a cute picture of us and I became so excited I scanned the picture, created my siggy and put it up like about 1 week early. And I LOVE IT. I'm glad I get to honor my Iesha. It has made me remember just how much she ment to me and now I realize why you girls were so excited to have May be dedicated to pets. Thanks!

Wow! congrast and welcome back. Thanks for the review! Your pictures looked perfect. I cant wait to see more.

Congrats and welcome back! I'm glad everything turned out just the way you wanted it. It sounds like the little interuption during the ceremony didnt bother you too much and can actually be a funny story to tell in the coming years. You know eveyone is going to harass you for pictures (LOL). Thanks for the review!

WOW! thanks for taking the time to answer all those questions.

Wow! It looks like you had so much fun. I cant wait for mine

Ok, I posted a thread about this before, but now I have pics. Walmart has Mesh bags and matching cotton floppy hats for $5.00 each. Here are some pictures. They also have another type of mesh bag, thats more decorative, but a different type of texture. The bags below have a pocket on the outside and inside and the floppy hats are reversable. I bought them as gifts to my BM's, Mom and Auntie for my upcoming bridal shower. I think its a great deal...

WOW. Everything looks so good.

WOW! Ok, you are making me totally want to leave NOW! Your pics look so perfect. Where did you get your Parasols? I love yours.

Go girl! Good luck, I'm sure you will do great!

went to the gym. 45 on the eliptical, 20 on the master step. Tricepts & bicepts.

WOW! the teasers are PERFECT. I LOVE the one of you and Reggie in the window...you are making me so excited for mine!

WOW! Your pictures look PERFECT! Thank you for sharing and posting the review! I'm glad you were happy with everything. I love the hanging flowers. Do you mind if I use your idea? How did you do them and transport them? Your mom did a great job with your flowers! I'm having a hard time figuring out what I'm gonna do about flowers (and my time is coming quick) does your mom do silk flowers for brides?

Do you think it would be better to get the mugs with the handle?

WOW, that sounds so perfect! Congrats and welcome to the forum. Happy planning.

Oh the hair.... well my hair trial was a disaster but the day of worked out fine. I actually never saw the back of my hair once it was finished b/c I was in such a hurry but she put SOOOOO much spritz and so many hairpins in it that the next day it had not moved at all. I even climbed Dunns river and it was still in place. WOW, it held up thru climing the falls....That works Did your hair frizz as soon as you stepped of the plain? I'm not sure how my hair is going to act and I think my texture is kinda close to yours.

Our wedding was at 11am- which is the time of day where there is no shade at the beach gazebo- and I realized on my walk down to the beach i forgot sunblock, and i paid for it later. I took a Neutrogena spf 70 face lotion and it worked great when i remembered to use it. I also had a banana boat spray sun block that worked well and wasn't sticky. OK, high SPF it is.....I'm pretty light skinned and I DONT want to burn. THANKS.

(I was gonna try to hold off on the questions after your review, but I just couldnt stop myself).

I'm a proactive girl, so I'm going to buy the sun screen for my face from them.... I just dont know what SPF I should get. I want to tan, but I dont want to burn....

This is one of the parts I'm most worried about. Getting our certificate once were are married and have left Jamaica. Oh well, no worries right? The Social security office should be loads of fun for you and changing your name.... Oh wait, do you have to go thru that in Canada....

Isnt it a perfect dress for the beach! or actually just about anything.
