I need some input... I went to my FILs this weekend and my FBIL (best man) was there. Besides being jumped on about the cost of the vaca/ wedding for guests...(Which is another story for another thread if I get to it)....They didn't appreciate my STD's (again another story) and now I am getting awkward emails regarding guests.. OK on to the question, sorry I am aggravated! My FBIL sent me an email asking if he could give the resort info to a friend (that is on our list and we sent a STD to ) because he was looking for it.. This is understandable since I know that this guest hadn't recieved the STD yet.. On the other hand I was like.. Look at the STD - the info is on there Michael! I have the info EVERYWHERE and I am getting stupid questions, like who do we call?! Then on another line he asked if we needed another friends address since they exprssed interest in going... thing is we weren't going to invite them! he wanted to know if I had sent STD to everyone or if they were going to find it on their own.. So now I don't know what to do, especially since we JUST sent out the STDS and people have not recieved them.. DO we send one out to this other friend that wasn't invited but wants to go? I just have a feeling that people are finding out via word of mouth, that we are aquantiances with but that is all- and they think that it would be cool to go on vaca with all of us. It boils down to the fact that I don't think people - even my closest friends and family realize that this is a REAL wedding and there will be a REAL reception and there is still an invite list...... I am concerned and want to make sure that I follow etiquette... Then again I know that some of my guests have invited other friends of theirs to join them on vaca for the week... So do I invite only my original guests to the wedding and if there ends up being more "friends" that decide to vaca that week, dont' include them in the festivities? Seems rude....

Here is a pic of basic set up for a beach reception

IT does depend on the type of ceremony you will have, because I had a 4:00 for a ROV, then we decided to have a minister do it and have yet to hear back as to when he is available to come. I think that it depends on their schedule... I have yet to hear the time myself come to think of it!

I never knew there were more options like dancers and a fire-pit...should I just shoot her an email? I would - she responds pretty quick and I am tossing ideas around so that I can figure it out... I dont mind trading ideas with you though! I posted the email trail in another post... The beach reception is private just so you know. I have a pic of the set up somewhere...

Good for you BRIDE TO BE!

SWEET potatoe Pie that is a great find!

I think it would be impossible to not do something since we live together and have for the past 3 years. No Sex the day before! Love this - it is so cute! I think I am in the same boat! LOL Nice thought though huh? Hard to take something away once you have it I guess. That is why I am with the rest of you and support all of you who are waiting- what a special day that will be for you! but for me- there is no turning back now! It was actually funny my mom mentioned that they are getting a larger room so that I can stay with them the night prior since I can't see Chris the night before.... I was like aw damn! This isn't a traditonal wedding! LOL-- I guess it is because we never see anyone anyhow- so thinking that we will have a week alone makes me sad that i can't be with him one of those nights! But good for you ladies! Can't wait to read this thread after the weddings! LOL! Should be juicy!

Welcome! Good choice on Punta cana!

Congrats! I LOVE the pic of the guys and the parasols! Too funny! You looked beautiful. Can't wait to hear more!

I have met a few famous people- I know all the Pros on Dancing with the Stars. I have a pic w/ Cheryl Burke. She is bitchy though! when Nomar Garciapara was on the Sox i met him, I pushed little kids aside and yelled that I wanted to have his baby so that he would give me his autograph! Lol! It was kinda funny- I embarrassed my BFF! My FI has met Elaine from Sienfelds boyfriend on the show....What the hell is his name. Stucky or something? They were in Newport RI and saw him at a bar, then he joined them on a bar crawl! Weird!

I am gonna spend a FORTUNE uploading songs! I made a spreadsheet with a list and it is 6 pages long! (including slow and dance) CRAZY! looks like the reception will be an all day and night affair!

Wanna know something funny? I read this thread and I get the urge to poop- its like magic! Wait until we start! LOL

HHHMMMM... will figure it out somewhow!

CONGRATULATIONS!
