There's no reason you can't wait until September. None. Frankly, looking back on our return from the wedding, I am SO glad we didn't have ours right away. We were just exhausted. Plus, we wouldn't have had our photos back, and we want to play a slide show of the photos for our guests. There are lots of good reasons to hold off. I vote for September! Besides, just about the time your memories of Mexico start to lose their clarity, you'll get a whole bunch of new ones.

Susan!!! It looked like you had the best time!!! I'm so happy for you!

You look amazing!!! I love the french bustle on your dress!

I hear what you're saying about the warnings all such. The reality is that most of the problems that they are talking about have occurred in Mexico City and some of the other big business towns. The organized crime you're talking about, from what I understand, has been known to target wealthy businessmen or the children of wealthy locals. They are not interested in beach-going tourists. I've been to Cancun and the Riviera Maya 3 times in the last 8 months and have never had any kind of problem, never felt threatened, and frankly never felt uneasy. Yes, you're going to an economically challenged country. Yes, there is poverty. But the likelihood of anyone associated with your wedding being the victim of organized crime? HIGHLY, highly unlikely. A pickpocket, or an unethical vendor, possibly. But you'll find that in New York, San Fransico and pretty much anywhere in between.

Nathaniel has finished the slide show for our TTD. All I can say is wow. He's just SO GOOD. The slide show is AMAZING.

The same one? No idea. Just thought it was funny. How's this:

Okay... just remember, you asked for it. Hi! Remember me? I opted not to use this one.

What, you're bored so my user title becomes an ISSUE? There's nothing wrong with Elite Member or VIP member or whatever... it's just... dull. (And yes, I'm just being obnoxious because I'm feeling snarky) Quote: Originally Posted by Abbie just dont want to be a strippers wife. That's not what I've heard.

I wouldn't use my powers for evil, but I'd always use them for silly. merging threads that shouldn't be merged so it takes things way out of context changing people's avatars to funny ferret pics oh the joy... Oh, me too!!! I would have to toy with people. In subtle, non-evil ways, of course. Like making them 2,973 years old. Or changing their location to "If I told you I'd have to kill you". And we'd definitely have to come up with new user titles (especially now that I know the difference between those and user names!) But... back to the monthly user title bandwagon... I like the idea of 80s music... Hi... my name is Tarzan Boy Hee. Tainted Love.. Too Shy... Karma Chameleon... What I am... Slave to Love... Goody Two Shoes... Wait!!!!! I have it!!!! I put dibbs on She Drives Me Crazy!!!!!

Jungle love... shake your tree... dear me we could have fun with this.

There's a reason my user title isn't "Rocket Scientist"... Quote: Originally Posted by Morgan yay! love the new avatar & tagline! Why, thank you, Killer... um ferret*licious.

Quote: Originally Posted by ErinB I think Kitty-Shark could take TIger-Bunny. OMG Erin - that is hysterical!!! And yes, kittyshark could probably take tigerbunny. But only in the water. And for the record (despite my confusion about "user name" and "user title" and the fact that I am now 5,000 points lighter than I was...oops) I am now SNARK*O*LICIOUS.

Quote: Originally Posted by Morgan cute! what would your user title be? tiger in a bunny suit? that describes you well. so sweet but able to attack if needed. I also like "puffy pink ball*licious" where did puffy pink ball come from anyway? It was a google image, but I have NO memory of what brought it about. I just thought it was funny. (Plus I love me some pink...) Now for a user title... hmmmm.... maybe snark*o*licious... I'm feeling very snarky today.

The ceremony chairs are what they usually use for the reception, so I don't see that as a problem. So, you're having dinner and dancing on the beach? Very cool!

Congrats Kat!!!! I hope your day is absolutely perfect!

Great dress! You look soooo happy!

Yay Andi!!!! Congratulations! Now... about those missing pics?!?!

totally adorable!

I LOOOOVE Baking!!! I love making cakes and pies. Mannn. Now I want to go home and play in the kitchen. And I just got a big, beautiful kitchen aid stand mixer as a wedding gift, too....

I love cetaphil. And their moisturizer is great, too! I get the big green tub at Costco!

Yay Susan!!! I was thinking about you on Friday when I picked up my mail from the mail room and lo and behold, there's a postcard from Hawaii from Susan!!! I can't wait to see the photos!

Great photos!!! I love the TTD of the two of you on your elbows facing the camera. Fantastic!

I'm so sorry you have to go thru all of this. You and your FI are in my thoughts. Big hugs!!!

Have it at the gazebo. It won't look any different if the chairs are right next to each other versus 2 inches apart. And in the photos, you won't even notice As to the comfort thing, let's be honest... the ceremony will last all of 20 minutes. If your guests are shoulder to shoulder it won't make any difference. Also, 2 or 3 of them will be chasing after a kid, and another 2 or 3 will have stepped out of the seats to take some snapshots. It will be fine. And tell your WC to get a clue... 2 weeks before hand and she throws this at you? Please.
