MsMiranda - I am using a starfish that has been passed from two other brides on this forum - I would be happy to pass it along to you after my wedding! PM me with your address if you are interested!

Sorry I've been MIA the last little while - we close on our new house at the end of this month so things have been crazy! I don't have any advice on the Fun Pub b/c we never made it there. I would say though that it's less like a disco and more of a pub - tables with chairs and a dance floor. The lobby bar is great - we often went there pre-show and post dinner to have a drink. It's open air concept - lots of couches and tables with waiters etc. taking drink orders.. it's a nice atmosphere - not always super quiet but a great place to just chill and relax.. In terms of Cancun - I would say it's about 20 minutes to drive - I think the cab ride is about 15 bucks although the resort offers a shuttle for free I think every morning to Cancun to shop (I will check my files tonight and let you know!) Oh and Perla is really the best thing about the Paradisus - she is sooo wonderful about requests, emails etc. Ladies I am getting so excited!

So sorry to hear this Kristy. Know that we are all sending our thoughts to you and your family.

Ours is the same as jcarsons. Our birth certificates in long form (english only which I ordered online) and our passports. Our WC said that the smaller wallet sized-ones would be OK if we couldn't get the full notarized ones in time. Our friends got married at the Grand Sirenis (Tulum) last November and only needed wallet-sized BCs and passports as well..

Dark Sunglasses - Cory Hart

We are thinking of digital picture frames - loaded with tons of wedding photos - the nice thing is that they range in price so they really fit any budget.. and it's a bit of a twist on an original..

I just wanted to say that my sis and I went on Friday here in Toronto and it was the BEST CONCERT EVER! Tons of their old stuff and some good new songs as well.. It wsa awesome!

Sandy the dog: animal shelter

It's not so much the type but the length. I ordered a shoulder-length because I am having it placed like that under my hair - you can really use any style (sheer, full etc)!

bubblegum: pink

big hairy spiders : arachnaphobia

The package that I negotiated was 12 printed pictures. In lieu of an album - each will be matted and framed and will sit in a silk memory box - from the outside it looks like nothing with a surprise inside!

Welcome to the forum and happy planning!

what I wish I was doing right now - burrowing under my covers!

Welcome to the forum!

Welcome Cindy! You can to the right place - BDW is a wealth of information!

Welcome to the forum and happy planning!

I am sorry that you have to deal with this all. Know that we will be thinking of you here on BDW - if you need ANYTHING I am in Toronto too and would be happy to help out (even if it means bringing my laptop to the hospital so you can get your dose of BDWF)

As others have said, I think at one point or another every single one of us feels crappy about the way we look - our thighs, spare tire, cottage cheese booty etc. FI always says that feeling good about yourself isn't about ONE DAY - it's a journey for the rest of your life. Think positive that you have lost the 12 pounds already and, while you will work hard before the wedding that day is just the first day of forever and you can continue to work at it after the wedding!
