    Aw, my grandmother wonj't be coming to mine either sad.gif I am glad to know I am not alone in that.

    We went invitations to everyone we would have sent one to if we'd had a normal wedding at home.

    We're doing the legal ceremony here. And getting married on day 3 there. And then we have a week more to party/vacation. (We awnt as MUCH R & R after the madness that is this wedding!)

     

     

    I say go for Day 3!

    Cause day 1 is a travel day, Day 2, is for planning/prepping, and Day 3, you are ready to go!

    GREAT advice, Maura!!! Thanks for the heads up. I need to take mine in about a week or so for the final 'white gold' dip :)

    Moonpalace, my girls all have hectics schedule, and one is out of state, so the day of the bridal shower (hoping the out-of-stater comes), I am going to pass out their gifts.

    OMGOSH. She sounds like the MOH from hell!

    Tell her nicely (when you've calmed down a bit--cause Lord knows I would go off in the moment!!!), that you appreciate her "opinion" but you have decided to have your wedding at RIU Ocho Rios and that is where it is going to be. If she says one more word, advise her that when planning, you guys knew that not everyone would be able to make it and that is just one of things that comes with a DW wedding. NUFF SAID.

    You do not owe her anything further or changing your location, or even COUNTRY to appease her.... that is F*(&W#*($&@#(*$& ridiculous!

    If she say sshe cannot make it, then that is fine, you will have to find someone else to replace her. And honestly, if she's giving you this much grief about hosting your wedding the place where YOU want to, it maybe better to find someono eelse to fill her spot! :)

    GOod luck and DO NOT back down, woman! It's your day, your wedding, your choice!

    Are you coming or what?

    Let me tell you, that of the 48 people who have already BOOKED their packages, only THREE of them sent me a response card back. LOL. My wedding is in a month and my 'deadline' is 7/14. At this rate, I seriously doubt I will get more than 2 more back. LOL. And we anticipate about 10 or 15 more people because some are flying in from Europe and some live right in the Caribbean & are booking from the island. Crazy. :)

    Okay, ladies, so I am now dreaming my wedding at least once a week in some way, shape, or form. LOL.

    I am supposed to go and register for gifts today, FI STILL needs a suit and we still can't find his ring! He says he may just buy a new one! We want to get ours engraved so we need to jump on that.

     

    I have been racking my brains over this but I have NO clue what color to paint my nails on our big day! My dress is an off-white color and my wedding colors or red/gold. I don't want to wear something too dark but do not like french manicures. Any suggestions?

     

    AHH! JULY BRIDES!!!

    Kharrod,

     

    I bet she would be happy if you asked her to be a bridesmaid.

    My sis and I aren't the closest but I asked her to be my MOH, being that she's my sister and I will say that through the wedding planning, it has brought us closer.

    Your wedding is still a long ways away so I think it would be very cool if you asked her to be a BM :)

    Just my opinion, though :)

    Twinkle, I am with Maura here. I have never heard of linens being TOO PERSONAL. That is just crazy talk! don't listen to your friend.
    I'm registering this weekend, too (not sure where yet), and linens are prob #1on my list. LOL. We already have a ton of stuff so I doubt we'll register for lots of stuff. Maybe a formal dishware set (china)

    My parents went to a wedding recently where the bride and groom registered for a massive plasma tv. Now that is what I call "personal." (and weird!) lol
