I said "not sure" as in not sure he would go He has never been to a strip club and doesn't think it's very logical. And, since he bought me my own pole for the house, he already gets the best show in town for free!!!

Thios are some great suggestions Kat!!! Bandeau is the way to go ladies- have given up on bathing suits with straps unless I am doing a lot of moving around. AN I have not had a tan line in years. I hate them I know they can be photoshopped out, but IMHO they look tacky. I am strictly enforcing no tan lines for the BM's...I see so many pics of bridesmaids who laid out in the sun and it just looks awful

I've got my gym bag today!!! Can't wait to get on that stairmaster.

Everyone is a little different, but that sounds normal. The best part is after you do it for a while it will grow back less and less. I am thinkign about laser removal to avoid the monthly process.

I have it on DVR - I can;t wait to watch it!!!

Mrs - I have to get back to this BTB - Maura. She's been really helpful helping me find my way around sometimes

I think Jr Bridesmaid is appropriate for 9 years old. She's going to be so excited to be a part of the wedding!!!

I totally for got about this song called "For Real" by Amel Larrieux. It is so beautiful. I teared up when it came on during my random play yesterday and I thought I would post it here.... I can run like a race for hours and hours and don't stop I can float I can fly us to highest mountain tops I can breathe you I can drink in your laugh, I can l can live on your smile I can trip and but if I can fall into your arms I can stay there my whole life Chorus (Stated Twice) I can live I can love I can be better with you, For real I can hear I can feel I can see I can tell, you are for real I can stare, I can memorize your face, your hands, your hair Every part of you, I can cut off any loose ends and not even wanna keep a few I can speak to you so honestly I can't even run any game I can hear a million angels singing in my ears When I say your name Chorus (stated twice) I can live I can love I can be better with you, For real I can hear I can feel I can see I can tell, you are for real I can't smile, can't dream like a child Can't feel safe in the wide world without you I can't go can't disturb this flow Can't begin to know what I would do I can't see, Can't find strength to be rather not be me without you I can't deal, I can't even feel without you I'm not real Chorus (stated 4 times) I can live I can love I can be better with you, For real I can hear I can feel I can see I can tell you are for real

Quote: We're paying $950.00 for three hours. My fiance thinks it's insane (which it kind of is) but we don't have any other music options, so it's either that or nothing. I'm not willing to have no music, so he had to give in! haha Anyhow, $150 per hour is a very good price IMO if it includes set-up and all the equipment. That is a lot for a DJ!!!!!!! I have to believe that in Maui you can find a better deal. I would keep looking. Good luck!

Go for more layers- That way you can keep the length! I completely understand. I just gotbans a couple weeks ago because I needed a change but I have 10 months to grow them out...

I love Benefit's F.Y. Eye! I have been using it for years. I also use liquid eyeliner and on occasion wear eye shadow (but I am really lazy!!!) http://www.benefitcosmetics.com/gp/p...s/Makeup_Eyes/

YES!!!! just finished 50 min of cardio! I want to add the Bar Method to my weekly schedule...Does anyone else go to The Bar Method The Bar Method™ exercise system creates a uniquely lean, firm, sculpted body by reshaping and elongating muscles while maintaining an intense pace that burns fat and increases stamina. The hour-long class is composed of eight or nine strengthening exercises followed by stretches. The strength work combines holding positions that use the body’s own weight with small, controlled moves that increase range of motion and stamina. Stretching is focused on the hips, chest and lower back to improve posture and body alignment. Students begin the class with free weights and push-ups, move to the bar to work their legs and abdominals, and finish on mats for more core work and stretching. http://www.barmethod.com/

I agree with Maura about not doing anything too drastic right before your wedding, but looking at your face the first thing that jumped out at me was that you should go dark...like a really rich chocolate brown and cut it into a assymetrical bob. don't pay me any mind, but i think that would be really cool. But keep in mind what you want to look like in your wedding day photos!!! And have a blast in vegas!!!

Wow..I wish we had that in Cali...

welcome to the forum amanda!!!

Lady Cheese- Now you've got me thinking about personalized napkins and i love it! Are you taking his last name? If you guys have them personalized with the initial of your last name you can use those anytime you have a party at your home! I am big on cocktail parties at our place anytime I get the chance...game night, summer solstice, any reason to serve fun cocktails

What a cute idea!

Your guests are going to love those. Thanks for all the info. I will be getting started on mine sometime this summer...I love that blue too!!!

It really depends on what route you want to go. There are a ton of places to stay. I think in Napa the top of the line is considered Auberge de Soliel. It's where Christina Aguilera got married and it's SUPER expensive, but beautiful!!! It's located in Rutherford which has some AMAZING vineyards (Peju, Cakebread, Grigch Hills) http://www.aubergedusoleil.com/ Kenwood Inn is in Sonoma and was recently ranked as one of the most romantic hotels in the US. It has a beautiful grounds and amazing spa too. A few wineries in Sonoma include Gloria Ferrer, Domaine Carneros, Artesa... http://www.kenwoodinn.com/ The thing about Napa is that each different area has so many wineries so in four days it might be best to concentrate on one or two areas. We are really lucky to live so close to Napa and we've had a chance to visit a lot although it's been a while. i have a list of smaller B&B's that we have stayed before and a pretty detailed list of wineries (Napa, St. Helena, Rutherford, Sonoma) so if you want more info, PM me and I can send you a more extensive list!

Those look great! I am inspired to make my own!!

I don't think it's rude at all if you don't want to. If you feel like there are people who can't make it would you consider something REALLY casual - like cocktails at your home when you get back?

que bonita! love those shoes....

Carly those are gorgeous. They look great together!
