I feel like everything is on my shoulders as far as planning goes. He hasn't helped with ANY of the projects. Hopefully on Friday he can get going on some music. I prefaced an e-mail yesterday to my BM's with, "I know all I talk about is wedding stuff and I apologize...BUT" I think if others were in our shoes they would be as obsessed as we are! You know they would be! OH guess what? .... I got a phone call from my travel agent saying he was quitting his job in 2 weeks!! He said he should have everything done with my wedding by then. I was like Everything should be in order. He better not screw anything up! Or he'll get this OH crap about your TA. But at least he had the decency to call you and give you a heads up. I'm sure since he did let you know that he will take care of your stuff before he leaves. Dont worry! your fi sounds like my fi, he has selective memory. especially when it comes to his family. Oh and i forget to congrat you for setting a legal day date! Awesome! Quote: Originally Posted by tvt Tease! Can't wait to see your dress! And I'm glad you like Laura Mercier!

I'm going to attempt to do a whole face of makeup this saturday as a trial run. I barely wear makeup and when i do it's very little so i have to reteach myself how to do eyeliner and all that good stuff i havent used since I was in college/hs!

i didnt do great this week but i had a slight loss so i'll take it. We are getting new floors in my house and i havent been able to cook since their's a sofa in my kitchen. so ive been eating pretty crappy like pizza, hoagies, chinese. you get the picture. But i am going walking 2night with my girlfriend.

She gets paid back and she is really good about it. She is after all in the city. I think I basically just have to test pack and finish the welcome books once I get everyones pics that I still need. What a great MOH! Wow that's all you have left to do. I'm really jealous of ya especially since your wedding is 4 weeks after mine. I'm such a slacker! Now you can enjoy your fittings and all the other running around we have to do to get ready! Guys have it so easy. Quote: Originally Posted by SoontobeMrsE My MOH is acting weird.

I know she is going - her trip is paid for, but whatever - she'll get over whatever her problem is. Maybe she's just wedding'd out. She's probably not that into wedding planning as you and I. So maybe she just needs a little break from wedding stuff and talk and she'll be fine. I know my sis (moh) always says to me, "all you talk about is wedding stuff" so when she says that i stop talking about wedding stuff. Which is so hard to do! lol

Oh and Tara i loved your projects. The blue color you used is gorgeous. How funny is your mom being worried that people who cant read spanish wont know which table they are at.

Hi girls. I havent had a computer in a few days so i'm trying to catch up on posts now. You girls have been busy! I managed to get a pic of my dress yesterday. Unfortunately we are getting new hardwood floors in so fi moved all of our furniture into the room where our home computer is in. So i cant get to my computer so i can attach my camera to it (the wire is in there too). Boo on me! But i promise when the floors are in and we move back our furniture i will post the pic. I cant wait to show you girls! I got my makeup done at the Laura Mercier counter this past weekend. I loved it. the girl did a great job. I hate wearing makeup, i always want to wash it off as soon as i get home. This makeup was different. I didnt even feel like i was wearing any foundation. It was great. I had my makeup done at 12 and it stayed on pretty well. And it didnt get cakey or gross. I bought a ton of stuff and it wasn't cheap but i thought it was well worth it. And now i'm going to start wearing makeup more. I only wear it for special occassions which is like 5 times a year lol. Quote: Originally Posted by amyrak oK..here goes.. OOoohhh. I love it on you. So pretty. I really like the bottom too.

And you look beautiful with your dress on. Also congrats on shedding some pounds.

Her roommate is doing much worse than my aunt too. They did another bone marrow test on her yesterday and she will be started on chemo tomorrow. I'm sorry about your aunt Erica. I'm glad she's doing a little better. Quote: Originally Posted by SoontobeMrsE Good morning Chicklets! I'm here! I was super busy at work yesterday and I"ll be busy again today - (UGH!) I am so ready for vacation it isn't funny. Tara I sent you the menu info. I hope it helps! I am having part two of my final assembly party on Friday. My BM's are coming over and we are going to knock out the rest of the stuff I need to do. That will be a HUGE weight off my shoulders! I scheduled our appointment for our legal day. We'll be getting hitched on Friday, October 31st at 11:30am! My step mom got my son's pants done. She made him some white linen pants. They are too cute and fit him perfectly! I had a major face break out. I swear - I think it is my office phone. I have two huge zit's right were the piece you talk into hits your chin! UGH!! (Sorry if TMI) I am totally grossed out about it too! My phone headset is acting weird so maybe I'll put everyone on speaker phone - that will really irritate them! I ordered a sash and flower for my daughters dress - oh and I ordered myself a teal/peacock colored satin bag with a rhinestone handle (bling of course!) to hold my wedding day makeup and emergency kit so we don't have to keep going to the room for touch ups. I really like it. My MOH is acting weird. Every time I ask her about wedding stuff, her attitude is like "whatever". So I am going to give her some space. I know she is going - her trip is paid for, but whatever - she'll get over whatever her problem is. I think that's about it on my side. I am going to look for a new bag for my dress this weekend so I can get that bag sent to you Tara. How is everyone else doing? That's awesome your mom was able to make your son linen pants. I was going to buy them for my nephew (he's almost 1) but the prices were crazy for them and i couldnt find any locally. I had a breakout on my chin this weekend too. I was on the way to get my makeup done and poof there was two huge zits on my chin. Looks like you ordered a lot of stuff Celina. I love receiving packages in the mail, dont you girls? I received my starfish for my bouquet from Alyssa. its so purdy! And Erica you got a crapload of diy projects done. I havent. I cant wait to get my computer at home back so i can get some stuff done.

Happy Bday!

im just catching up on this thread. glad you emailed your parents and told them whats up. i hope they can change if not it's their loss.

Lisa i really dont feel like doing all the small stuff too. I'm anxious to just get married and enjoy my vacay. I'm sorry about Jaysons dad. When it rains it poors. That's awful for Jayson. My dogs hate the vet too. I usually take them to petsmart and get them a special treat. Maybe just get them a special treat when you get home to ease the pain a little after the vet. On a positive note, i cant wait to see your dress. And yay for your shower coming up. I have a dress fitting on Monday. I'm going to take my camera with new batteries so my mom can take a pic on my camera so i can finally post a pic of my dress.

Thanks lisa. How are you doing?

Bed Bath and Beyond, Target and Kohls all have lists of what you should register for. I printed them out and went through them and crossed off things we dont need and then just wrote on the back a few things that werent on the list that we do need. they lists really help, they also give you recommended quantites to register for.

Welcome back.

This is a tough one but i voted for 2.

welcome to the forum. i'm getting married in Punta Cana too goodluck with your planning

Yeah i know i'm so psyched now. I cant wait to get to Punta Cana.

Those are really pretty setups

How do they manage to look so good at 6 am? That's not what i look like in the morning. They make a beautiful couple. The pics are fantastic

I really like #1 the best, my 2nd fav is #3.

Everything looks great. Vista Print rocks

i love the bookmark so cute. great stuff

I have to find time to exercise too. I was doing so good. i was using my lunch break to exercise but now i've been tanning during my lunch. Have to find time to exercise.

Thanks Emily. But she calmed down the next day and was totally fine with taking the flight with the short layover. She isnt worried about it anymore. I think she was thinking the worst and i've told her about some of the girls on here flying with infants and being okay so that made her feel a lot better. You girls are the best! love yas

cool i'm gonna look for an "outfit" or two 2morrow. then i'll be in pjs the rest of the week. I probably could just get away with my bathing suit. I tried on my bikinis yesterday and showed fi to see if i looked okay in them. He was all revved up, raring to go after. lol sorry if TMI! Steph I have 2 suggestions: 1. I would just mention it to everyone during the day that you guys are going off the resort to get something to eat if they wanted to join you. 2. or if you are doing a welcome letter or something like that. I would put it on there like "We are going off the resort to one of our favorite restuarants, Ruth's. If anyone would like to join us contact us so we can set it up. Since the restaurant is off the resort it is not included with your all inclusive packages. Maybe you can get a copy of the menu so people can see prices and include in your welcome packet.
