We did a donation to the Leukemia/Lymphoma society in memory of FIL. We had a table top tiki torch on each table, so we just hung a little sign from each one explaining that.

Tony Romo seems like a jerk, so I'm not surprised. Jessica Simpson kind of annoys me too. Maybe that's why I thought they were good together, I didn't really like either one of them!

Aw, I'm sorry to hear this. Big Hugs!

Wow, these look great!

I had a white pair of cotton underwear that said "Bride" in blue on the butt from Victoria's Secret.

Thanks for the info Kathy!

I can barely remember my wedding day and it was less than 2 months ago! I can't wait to see my video to relive those special moments and to remember what I have forgotten. I never realized the value of having a wedding video until the morning after my wedding when I couldn't remember so many details. I'm just as excited to see it as I am my photos.

I have pics! It's so cute to see how her big sister Adison looks so happy!

Hey there. Sorry about all the craziness for you. First let me say that if you really want a Maui wedding, then have a Maui wedding. St. Lucia isn't going to be all that much cheaper or easy to get to, plus, it's your wedding, not you FMIL's. That being said, I absolutely loved my St. Lucia wedding! I'm sorry that Villa Capri ended up getting booked, Kris was wonderful to work with. She helps with several villas, so I would still contact her and ask her what options exist. Unfortunately that is the biggest private villa on the island, so you may not be able to get everyone in one villa. Many girls have used Awesome Caribbean Weddings and some have used Down the Isle. I've heard good things about both. Technically all beaches on St. Lucia are public, but many of us get married on Pigeon Island which is mostly private. I noticed a couple or two watching our wedding from a distance, but you won't get people sunbathing next to your ceremony or anything like that. Anyway, I would definitely encourage to go where you want to go. If you end up deciding that is St. Lucia, we're here to help! But don't let people tell you where you have to get married.

Thanks everyone. I'm still waiting on pictures, ugh. It's killing me!!

Thank you for the compliments on my cover though!

That's so great! Glad it wasn't what you originally told it was going to be!

Say hello to Auntie Kristy! My SIL gave birth to my niece, Janele Kristin this morning at 8:45. I'm SO honored that they made her middle name my name! I totally didn't see that coming! Sorry, no pics yet. I can't wait to see what she looks like! I hate that they live out in Ohio. Everyone is healthy and doing fine! YAY!!!!

I can't wait to get back to NYC and catch up! MISS YOU! Casey! I haven't seen you on here in forever! I've missed you! I'm so ready for a BDW happy hour. I feel bad I've never been able to go to one. Let's plan one!

I hope everything is going well today. Happy bachelorette party day!

I can post the cover of my book for you:

Woo hoo! Congratulations girls!

Yay! Congratulations ladies!!!

They look great. I always love the stuff you post.

Ha ha, I can't believe this thread is back. Love it!!!! It makes me a little sad though because a lot of the girls who posted on it aren't really around much anymore. I also think it's funny that I started the thread and nobody had a crush on me! (So not saying that to get people to say that they do, I just thought it was funny!)

Wow, I can't believe I missed this thread. So crazy! Thank you for posting a great review to help other b2b. Such drama from him!

I like Ruby better. It seems more weddingish to me.
