We are having a 50th wedding anniversary for my grandparents. My mom (the new and improved MelanieS) and I were trying to decide how to decorate the cake, and we decided to come to our favorite resource! Here's what we've got so far: The cake will have 2 tiers, the top one 6 inches, and the bottom 8-10 inches (we haven't decided yet). It will be iced with white buttercream and have white icing roses tipped in gold icing. The big question: Do we want ribbons, words, dots, scrolls, initials, etc? It would likely be in white icing. We thought the words would be cute, but we’re not sure what to put. Maybe things like love, forever, celebration, 50 years, etc. Any ideas?

Now you need to go edit your profile to say your real anniversary instead of mine! And go post here: http://bestdestinationwedding.com/forum/t22388

Yay! And you're pink, too!

I like #3 because of the lace (and the veil is gorgeous), but really, you couldn't go wrong with any of them. Pick what you like best. Go with your gut (and the veil ). By the way, you have THE most beautiful smile!

During the day, they put out lounge chairs for your beach enjoyment, so you don't really notice it until the evening. You can pick the date and time, but once you get there, it's pretty tough to change it.

I love it, Maura! How fun! And how hot are you in your dress??

I loved La Isla for dinner. I would have had my reception there if it had been an option.

Love the pics, Mom! Wow, Dad is dark!

We had horrible problems with the wind, but apparently there was a tropical storm coming in. We ended up changing to the health bar after we got there (we planned for Tucanes), and had a great time.

We had this, too. And we did it a few days after the wedding. You can schedule it anytime you want. I think we changed ours a few times after we got there! The french toast was amazing, but the omelet (ours had salmon) was too fishy. Dinner on the beach, we did the three cheese fondue. It was excellent. My parents had that too with their anniversary package and were huge fans. Other friends paid to do this and had something different (I forget what) but enjoyed it as well (not to mention he proposed to her that night!!). I really don't think you can go wrong with any of it. Oh, and when we sat down for dinner, they brought us out a menu, so apparently we didn't really have to choose ahead of time. So pick one for now, and since they apparently don't pass on this info, change it the night you get there, if you want.

The way they reacted, it acted like food poisoning, with the fever and all. I'm a physician assistant, so of course they all felt the need to tell me all about what was going on! And yes, everyone is wonderful now!

I came in on this so late, I just KNEW I would know the results of the test by the time I got to the end. Now I'm just as anxious as everyone else!

Oh, and I love the shot with him dipping you next the the palm trees (the one that's at the bottom right of your siggy).

Thanks for posting, Morgan! They're awesome! You're well on your way to getting us all the info we need! I also went to Kristie's website. They're soooo good! I even made Isaac look at them with me.

I hadn't seen (or looked!) for this info yet. It must have been something else!

Take friends, get the dress, and camp out there until you have results. Make sure all customers coming and going see the "amazing" job they did on your dress. Make sure everyone knows how much you paid. Don't leave if you don't have results by closing time. Make them call the police. Invite your friends from the media if you want.

I love it! You're so pretty, and I love the table and cake!

I love it!! So pretty! You look way prettier than your inspiration! I might totally steal it for my next special occasion, but I'm taking your pics, not the inspiration ones.

I had a patient one time named Michael Jordan. He was a short, fat, white guy. My SIL wants to name their first girl Allegra. Yes, like the allergy medicine. My cousin named her baby Teagan J. She doesn't have a middle name, she has a middle letter. And there's no period after the the J, it's just the J.

Ok, good. Do we have the full wedding review and photo gallery (with slideshow) up yet?

Does this mean you're back? You aren't supposed to get back til tomorrow, right? Go back to your honeymoon!!!
