I'm cool with whatever PV logo (i'm pretty easy to get along with) and am more than happy to mail a check! I'm so excited! One more thing checked off the list! Sidenote: How are you guys getting all of your stuff to PV? Extra suitcase? Shipping it to Nicole beforehand? I'm not really sure how it works. ok sounds good...i will see what i can find for a logo and put something together either today or tomorrow...something simple like a palm tree or star fish? for getting the stuff to PV we are just planning on extra suitcases. the airline we are flying on allows 2 checked bags with no extra charge. so then if I still need more bags checked I was just going to "kindly" ask my parents or FI's parents to check an extra bag for us just to get it down there. Honestly though I don't think I will have too much...I am not taking any centerpieces or anything, the biggest thing I will be taking are the OOT bags and contents.

Hi welcome to the forum! Quote: Originally Posted by Dr_Cyn Thank you everyone! I definitely like the idea of no rain and cooler weather. It might be out of my hands though! We'll see. Has anyone gotten married in a church in PV but then had a reception on Las Caletas? It seems it will be tricky! that is an interesting idea...I haven't heard of anyone else that has done it... Las Caletas is wonderful though so I am sure if you just wanted the reception there that would not be a problem!

congrats on your engagement! Wedding fiestas are the best! In my opinion have fun planning!

I love target!

Ok so I just talked to VendoDirect to get details on the cups. price per cup is $0.79 there is a one time $40 set up fee for the artwork that we would send to them. They can ship the cups to multiple addresses we would each just have to pay for our own shipping. Depending on where the cups are going shipping would be anywhere from $15-$19 each. I talked to one of the girls who was included on the group order that some BDW members placed back in September for the Tulum cups and she told me that they too paid for their own shipping and had each box shipped to their addresses. Her wedding was in December and her guests (like tara's) LOVED them! If we decide to move forward with the order I think it might be easier if one of us places and pays for the order and then everyone else can that one person. I have no problem doing this and then everyone can mail me a check or pay through paypal. So let me know what you guys think.... We just need to figure out some artwork for the cups and get total numbers. Also find out if anyone else is interested in joining us?! I one more person is interested we would be perfect! So far: Jweekly would need 50-75 cups Britt - 50 cups Andi - I could easily do 100 I think and if for some reason this doesn't work out...no big deal, just let me know what you all think!

My thighes and calves hurt more than they ever have for a full 3 days (maybe more!) afterwards! Due to the excessive pain (I am pathetic, I know), I took a week off, but I am going to try to start up my 30 Day Shred again this week...wish me luck!!! All I know is that if it hurts, it means its working so I def have faith in this program! Good Luck! Keep at it! I agree that I think this program will work if you push yourself to complete each exercise and stick to it! good luck everyone!

The cover says "Lose up to 20 pounds in 30 days" - if I can lose 5 I will be happy! FUN! Let us know how the first workout goes... I tell you what...I finally decided about 5 days ago that I was ready for level 2...Level 2 is kicking my butt!!!! it is pretty hard...makes me sweat...and my muscles are sore too, so I guess that is all good!

Quote: Originally Posted by Erika J Is it Bright white or more soft white? But WOW what a steal for $6 bucks!!! mmm I guess it is more of a bright white...I haven't tried it on yet with my dress but that is white too.... the quality of the veil is probably not the best but hey it was a good deal!

Ok, SERIOUSLY? Deanna is back? I DO NOT LIKE HER ANYMORE! oh, the nerve to come back and say that she made a mistake!!!!!!!!

(SP) Totally agree, I think the dallas cowboy cheerleader is super cute! and at first I thought that was Eva Mendez's twin Quote: Originally Posted by BachataBride Oh...and I think I like the dental hygientist too - Shannon. She was funny with the teeth...good way to get his attention & have him remember her. I gotta say...the dental hygienist girl is the one I wish he would have kicked off! she was kind of stalker like...when she had her one on one time with him she KNEW everything about him and she told him that she was on his myspace page looking at all of his stuff! I don't know...looks like a pretty good season! My FI just doesn't understand why I watch this show all the time! he just shakes his head and goes to watch the the other tv!

Quote: Originally Posted by syl1115 I like it!

I love Target! I ordered this veil about a week ago...with tax and shipping it came to about $11 I figured if I didn't like it when it came I would only be out $11! well it came today! not too bad actually! I promise I will post pics later if I can find someone to take them for me...I don't want to show my FI and he is the only other one home! anyway I thought I would share my good find!

wow! I think it looks good! You have convinced me! I am ordering mine today! thanks!

awwww I hope he finds a good girl! I really liked him when he was on the bachelorette!

I think I can have them ship to different addresses. I will try to get in touch with them tomorrow and find out for sure. Ideally, how many would you really want? if we split an order of 250 would 125 be too many for you? I am ok with the 125 but I could go down too if we had more takers does that make sense? I will get in touch tomorrow with the company and see what they say for shipping!

also...um WOW I just looked at your TTD pics on your website...AMAZING! those turned out great! how did you get your eye makeup to stay in place in the water? waterproof? whatever you did they turned out GREAT!

OH MY GOODNESS!!! I truly am so sorry you had such a rough time with the resorts...but you were really a absolutely stunning bride!!!! your hair, makeup, dress EVERYTHING looks so great! I am glad it all turned out well for you and you married the man of your dreams!

We put them in the OOT bags and put 1 at each place setting at LC. We didn't have an AHR, so yeah, we have a ton left over. We ordered 250 from Vendo Direct because ordering 250 from them was cheaper than ordering 100 from a different place. lol..that is funny...you guys will be using them for years to come! I know the cups had a lot more meaning to you guys though I just want them because they are cool!

Quote: Originally Posted by tvt ha, I'm using a hyper colored cup right now. One funny thing, at the wedding my young cousin was the first one to use her cup. It changed bright orange. My uncle goes "oh, what did you put in there? Whatever it was I wouldn't drink it, the color looks bad!" It was so funny. At Christmas my parents went to my aunts house and they were using the cups ha! that is funny...so do you have a ton left over? did you ever use them at your AHR?

OMG! those pics are so freaking cute!!!!!!!!!!!! I cannot figure out for the life of me how you get those puppies to hold still long enough? My dogs are insane and I can never get them together for more than one second....your pics are amazing!!!!!!!!!!!

I am glad they were able to order you a new one! I ordered a size 6 but wanted to order a size 4 for that very reason...to have the corset be wider in the back. but the lady at the bridal store highly recommended I not do that because then the dress wouldn't fit me around my hips (it is a mermaid style). Anyway I got the 6 now I am worried I won't have the wide corset in the back...So my problem is opposite of yours! well you have some time still so I am sure everything will turn out just fine!!!!!!!!!!

Quote: Originally Posted by Duchess So sad we go home tomorrow! I agree...it is never fun to leave vacation...especially this one I am sure! Ok, I am changing topics here a bit.... So I am really in love the color changing cups that Tara had at her wedding... (you can see them in her planning thread http://bestdestinationwedding.com/forum/t30497 ) Anyway, at all of the places I am finding them at the minimum order is 250...I really don't need that many, even if I did use some at my AHR! So I was wondering if anyone else would maybe want to split an order with me? I am thinking if I can split an order, with one or more other LC bride, we could have a palm tree or starfish as the main logo and imprint it with either Las Caletas or Puerto Vallarta? I dont think it would be possible to add names or dates this way but hey at least I would still get the cool cups...and not end up with a TON left over afterwards. I did some searching and there were some other BDW brides that split an order back in August, but for Riviera Maya... if you go to the last post on this thread you can see what they got...I am thinking something similar but with Las Caletas and/or Puerto Vallarta. http://bestdestinationwedding.com/forum/t27620 Well, it is just a thought...let me know if anyone is interested! thanks!

YAY! Everything looks great!...have an awesome time!

congrats Mrs.! your BIG day is almost here!
