I think that is a great idea! Be sure you keep a copy for yourself!

Happy Wedding Martha and Jay (& Noah)! I hope it is even better than you imagined and only the start of a beautiful life to come!

I had no problem with mine. I had them in a small carryon bag. I called TSA before and they have no official policy, so it's up to the individual screener. With all of the other wedding stuff, I think they are a little lenient. If you have a bouquet jewel, you should probably pack it just to be safe. The wires in the flowers are hidden & covered in plastic, not just a big needle looking thing, LOL THe only bag they searched was my glass centerpieces because the candles showed up opaque on the x-ray so they had to check them out.

I agree that you should e-mail. If the previous supervisor know of the situation and said something at year end review, it should be in a personnel file somewhere. THat kind of behavior cannot be tolerated and I guarantee that that type of person will always find someone to pick on. You can post the email here before you send it so we can read as neutral observers and make comments/suggestions. As far as the crying jag, it will get back to your absent manager, these things always do. Not to make you feel bad, but this is how office politics work, it SUCKS! Since you have agreed to disagree, you need to kill her with kindness, if people have already noticed, they will continue and she will only make herself look bad. I'm sorry she's being mean. I guarantee that BDW can go bridezilla on her ass and she won't know what hit her.

Welcome to the forum!

Happy belated legal day! I should have known that's why you weren't around!

I think it is cheesy but I love it! I've been thinking about doing that as a gift for years. I keep telling myself I'll get skinny and go for it. If he's going to have a girlie calendar it should be me! I would love to dress up for each month. Think of all that great new lingerie!!!

LOL! That is funny! Maura - what did your stepmom decide to wear?

That will be tough! I don't envy you at all! I have a friend like that though, he would make me crazy, but he couls stay with me as long as he needed. Keep telling yourself that you are a good friend, especially when he starts to irritate you!

I just thought of this...I was in Kansas City on May 24th! Why didn't I get an invite? LOL

Missy! Those are beautiful! Sexy and Classy at the same time. I want to see more! I agree with Stephanie, 2 pics aren't a tease, it's more like a peep show!

Mo is right, it's about 4 hours, by the time you figure in traffic, etc. Lee's is a very reputable company. You could also contact Couples OR and see if they are taking anyone to Negril and try and catch the bus there. I was at CSA and loved it! Negril was beautiful, but we had no problem with nudity. Couples doesn't allow nudity on public areas of the property. In Negril all beaches are public, be we never saw anything other than a topless woman, and not many at that. I meant to walk down to CN, but never did. We were having too much fun where we were. COR will be open by the time your honeymoon rolls around, so you could stay there if you just wanted a change of scenery. If you have any questions about Couples, please feel free to PM me. I'll be more than happy to help anyway I can!

How pretty! What a great way to "recycle"! I've been wondering what to do with all of our stuff. I know that it is really exciting now, but I know at some point I'll get tired of looking at wedding stuff, LOL

Danielle - The Morning Star crumlbes or SmartGround, also make WONDERFUL chili! With the beans and tomatoes, just like you'd make regular chili, if is really high in fiber and good stuff and low in fat and bad stuff. THe hardest part is not over eating it, especailly if you put cheese on top!

FYI Ladies - I was at Michaels last night and they have all of the Martha Stewart beachy stuff on sale for half off! I know several ladies have used the sea shell aqua invites, place cards, etc. Now would be the time to buy if you need more or want to carry on with the theme.

Yay! That was pretty fast if you were married May 21! Only 2 months! We were told to be prepared to wait 3-4!

FUN!!!!! I LOVE the shell guestbook idea! You look beautiful in your dress. Your hair looked great down and natural.

I have too many crushes to list, too! Like Glenda I have everyone broken down into groups, Old School Members, New B2Bs, Senior Members that joined when I did... When any of the 08 brides get married, I feel like a MOB, like my little BDWer is getting married and I get all emotional. I got a little teary at Abbie and I'm sure I'll feel the same way for Maura, Alyssa, Stephanie, etc. I thought about Morgan on my wedding day because we were date twins.

The important thing for everyone is to not get discouraged! Any loss is still a loss! When I get down, that's when I start slipping.

Mine really aren't sexy because I did them by myself. While I adore my husband, his 6'5", 375lb body is not the standard sexy man body. When he lays on me, I kinda disappear...

I know I was lucky, but my photographer didn't charge us for the wedding. We just paid for her trip for the week $2200. She would like to start DWs so I was her first and her first TTD so it was a great way for her to build her portfolio. It was wonderful for us to have pictures of the whole week! I got all of the edited pictures on CD - 15 discs! I them printed the ones that I wanted. She is doing our photo book design as a gift to us, I will just pay to print.

Beautiful! The colors look great together! Will you send them in boxes or envelopes?

I love it! Your bouquet inspiration was one of mine!

I think you will be perfectly safe if you are in the ocean. I don't know how it would do in the chlorinated pool water. I actually didn't wear my slip when I did TTD.
