the cost depends on how many parts you need. (pages?) I know you can request a quote from Sarah Sproullie Designs | Custom Photobooks, Invitations and more! online and she'll email you the quote back. I wanted Sarah to do mine but fi designed ours and wanted to do them ourselves. If he hadn't done so much work on it them already, i definately would of went with Sarah I don't remember the exact quote she gave me but she was really reasonable.

Steph we all plan on losing a ton of weight for our weddings and most of us don't lose as much as we plan. It's hard losing weight and added stress such as wedding planning and work makes it even harder. But i have yet to see pics of a bride on her wedding day that didn't look radiant and I know you will look and feel gorgeous on your wedding day too.

the case is adorable and i love the last pair of earrings.

Congratulations Steph. There are some really really cute favors on the site. goodluck!

I'm sorry i never saw the original post. Im really sorry you guys are going through all this stuff. I hope you get some good news soon.

It fits you perfectly. Very beautiful.

This is our itinerary: We are arriving on Nov 1st. Guests arrive Nov 3rd. Welcome Dinner Nov 4th. Thursday Nov 6th Wedding We dont have anything formal planned after the 6th but we will probably be taking a group snorkel trip with who ever wants to go either on the 8th or 9th. Everyone leaves on the 10th.

OMG Erica, you have me picturing myself dressing up in all kinds of weird costumes like a pirate, hula dancer, haha. I'm cracking up now. I'll just have to wait and see. In the meantime i have been changing my registry like crazy. I've been going back and fourth between these two things and every other day i switch it back to what it was. Were any of you girls this bad with your registries?

Great job.

Oh i adore those, and the worm is too cute. Are they the same size as people's passport invites or bigger?

Well one of the plans is getting our makeup done so that wouldn't involve dressing up. But this sunday she invited fi and i to brunch with her parents at a Country Club that would be dressing up. I told her i would ask fi if he wants to go to brunch. Now normally my fi would probably say he didn't feel like it because he's not one to dress up so if he says Yes than it could be my shower. But i think brunch would be too early she didn't give me a time. See this is driving me crazy, i am looking into everything way too much.

Michelle your dress looks gorgeous on you. I love love the detailing and the train. Your sis is so adorable helping you out. Erica you must of made out at your shower, running out or room in your van. lol That's awesome. So my fsil is trying to make plans with me this sunday and next saturday. Could one of these be my shower? LOL this is just driving me crazy.

Good luck with your wedding!!!! So glad you liked your visit to PPR. I'm having my ceremony on the beach. Quote: Originally Posted by jwells I want to have the ceremony on the beach but I have not decided on a location for the reception. Where are you having your reception? I am a bit frustrated due to the lack of flights to the DR. I am in Dallas and we will have people from Dallas traveling along with several others in Texas (smaller cities) and from California. The flight will be a beating for our guests who do not live near a large city or who are coming from CA. I am having difficulty finding a location that is reasonably priced, and somewhat easy to travel. I like the DR but I think I may need to look into the Riviera Maya a bit more…isn’t this suppose to be fun!!! My ceremony is on the beach and the reception is going to be on the Olympic Terrace.

Hope this helps I'm going to be down there for my wedding on Nov 6th. You guys are welcome to sneak a peak at my wedding/reception. When are you guys going to be in DR?

Your guests are going to love the oot bats, ton of great stuff in them. And i know your moms and bms will love their bags too. OMG your 3 weeks out, its just so crazy how time is flying by!

Holly sh*t! I havent' been on all day, what a dirty man your ffil is. I would be furious with him too. But don't get mad at your fi, he might not have the kind of relationship with his dad that he feels he can call him out on things like that. But i find it really disrespectful to you that ffil said that to fi. It's kinda creepy. He's probably just so lonely loser that doesn't know what being in a strong/healthy relationship is like. I want to smack him for you.

Great stuff.

For those of you that have a dyson, can you vaccuum the stairs with it or do you need a handheld vaccuum to do your stairs?

lmao, i'm cracking up out loud at my desk, someone just looked at me like i was crazy.

snickers....

I'm really sorry Susan. I know you must be hearbroken but 21 is a really long life for a cat. I'm sure she had a great life and she's lucky she had someone like you to care for her.

Terri is a real sweetheart for giving up luggage space or a whole suitcase. Have you girls test packed yet? I havent tried packng anything yet

I really hate being the center of attention but for some reason i'm excited about my shower. I think because i don't know when it is so i'm more excited trying to figure out when it'll be. I think you should focus on the positive that you and your fi will have each other there. I'd much rather be with Derek so not all the focus is on me.

Ha Michelle i need to make an emergency shower bag. Thats cool United doesnt charge for checked bags on international. And how great is it that you have wedding mules. lol

Everyone did really great this season. I cant wait to find out who wins when Ann gets back. Hmm i have a couple of guesses. I think Kelly or Kathie.

Erica i have to clean my house up too so i have room to put away all the stuff from my shower (whenever it is). Oh and i got a hold of fi and told him about the beach dinner, yeah he wasn't nearly as excited as i was. He was more like"thats cool".
