I seen those somewhere, but of course can't think of it at the moment. Maybe Michael's or Hobby Lobby?

Great pics!

How fun! I love your cake and dress.

We're staying at the same resort since we would've lost too much time travelling to a different location. We are staying at the same hotel the wedding will be at until the day after the wedding and then are switching to the adults only hotel in the same resort complex for the rest of the trip.

Stephanie you looked beautiful. I love the pic of you and your hubby under the umbrella. What a cute picture! That is awesome that you went to Chuck E Cheese. Can't wait to see more pics!

What a beautiful location, and the pics are awesome.

I don't think it is tacky. In fact I wish I would have done that myself because everyone received theirs at different times, and no one knew if they should say anything because they didn't know who else was invited.

Your pics are so cute. You looked beautiful, and the gm pic is classic! Love it!

I made our message in a bottle STDs and am working on the invitations (although haven't done anything with them them in weeks). I'll probably do programs and maybe menu cards and place cards. I bought a plain metal bucket for the flower girl so I may decorate that a bit.

That is really cute!!!

I don't know if I will be able to make it on Sunday. I have the flu,a nd have been sick for the past 2 days. I haven't been able to eat anything and feel like total garbage. I haven't been sick like this in a long time. If I feel better by Sunday I will try to make it out, but not sure I will be feeling up to it.

I paid $3.71 for premium on Sunday. Ridiculous!

In the states there are a bunch of chocolate bars we don't get. Butterfinger I think? I know there's a bunch more. Plus ANY new product that comes out is in the states about a year before we get it up here. So, anybody know of anything else you don't have? I have a can of Pringles Ketchup Chips packed but so far that's it. Speaking of chocolate bars, there is one that I love that we don't have in the US. I'm not sure if they have it in Canada, but if they do someone needs to send me some ASAP! Bounty bars. They are like an Almond Joy, but without the almond. So yummy. My friend used to send me them from Ireland all the time, but she moved back to the US.

I bet the gf feels like a loser now that your bro ended up with 2 ladies a day later. Ha Ha!

I thought the year rule was only for new passports?

They also carded all of us at the pool-even my 57 yo old aunt that was with us. They made me go back to the room to get my ID so make sure you bring yours with!

Your pictures are beautiful! Your daughter is adorable!

We snorkeled at Princeville, and it was nice. There were a lot of colorful fish. We didn't have a chance to go anywhere else. I'm not much help.

I don't have a pic of it, but the bathroom in our room had one of those privacy windows. You could see through it unless you flipped a switch. They had Aveda products in the bathroom which I love!

Turn down service: Room pic at night (I didn't have any during the day): Wedding Set Up on the beach: I believe this is the hotel entrance, but my pics were a little out of order: Some of the hallways were open air, and this is a pic of the scenery: This was the view from our window. At night we left the window open and you could hear the waves, it was so nice!:

I just scanned some of my pics. I'll post in a minute.

Wow! I can't believe they are acting like this especially when you are paying for their trips! I apologize if others already asked this, but I didn't read through all the posts. Has your FI talked with his GM about getting the measurements done? I think you may also need to talk with your BMs as well. I would go for a kill them with kindness approach. If that doesn't work then the bridezilla may need to be released.

That is sick.

I waited on John Mahoney during college. I didn't even know who he was until everyone I worked with kept saying do you know who is at your table? I answered some old guy. Then they told me he played the father of Frasier on his show. I rarely watched TV at that time so I had no clue. He gave me a really good tip. My neighbor went to school with Anna Chlumsky (she was in MY Girl), but had never met her. Then when I was working at the zoo in HS she had a job there too as she was trying to be just a normal teenager. She was really nice. That's all, nothing too exciting.
