Denise I think you could totally wear the pink. Pink and teal are a beautiful color combo. And when playing thru this site i've seen that a bunch of us who use teal / turquoise & oragne for any of our stationary items usually accent with some sort of pink.
And oh, as for the VS backorder, the exact backorder time depends on the size and color. For instance I think they said the size small in red was available to ship mid-late April and the same size small but in pink was avalable to ship early April. So call & they'll let you know the ship dates for you preferred color & size.

I am SO not a gym girl, but about a month ago I decided it was time to step it up and go to the gym for some toning. I DREADED going, but now that I am in a groove I have to say I am loving it. Seeing the results is the best motivation ever! Once you find your groove you'll be good to go!
As for timing, I tried both working out 1st thing in the morning and after work. For me, mornings work best. After work I was simply too exhausted to move, and even if I was able to get myself to the gym (which was tough) my workouts were much slower and lacking as my body was just soo tired from the full day. I say try both and see what works best for you. Good luck!!!

Yay! I'm so happy you liked the idea! If you're like me and not so much an online order kinda girl, Bloomingdales carries the Tumi passport holders & document folders as well. And if you are a Bloomies insider, I believe this wekend i triple points weekend. Good luck!!

i just called and ordered the dress, YAY!! Thanks girls!!
And guess what, it is online, you just need the special link to access it, so here you go: Victoria's Secret - 7-in-1 curvy jersey dress
I was able to redeem 2 coupons: VSSale and RISKFREE
VSSale is good for $15 off an order of $100+
RISKFREE a promotion where when you buy any pair of pants you get free shipping, My shipping weas approx $17 (I got the dresss & a bra) and they had pants for $12. So I essentially saved all $5 and got a pair of pants! Victoria's Secret - Banded bottom pant in luxe fleece

I agree .. dancing on the beach can be kinda tough! And this a wedding, so fun and dancing should be easy!!!
As oppsoed to renting a dance floor, see if your cooridnator can have a section of the beach dug up to the firmer sand and then patted down to make an almost falt surface. Who knows if your hotel will agree to this, but I read in a bridal magazine once this is what an LA event planner to the stars did at some celebratiy beach wedding. So maybe worth a shot.

If you girls like cookies, I found great custom printed photo cookies when I threw my dad a surprise birthday party 2 years ao. The company has since been featured on The Today Show, etc. They were very easy to work with and totally reliable. Photo & Logo Cookies, Decorated Cookies, Custom Cookies, Cakes & Delicious Gifts, Made to Order!
I ordered sugar cookies & with a picture of my dad on them. And then the best part is in icing they wrote each guests name & table number so I was able to use the cookies as seating cards. They were a huge hit!

I really like both dresses .. they are TOTALLY different! Option 2 is more bridal and Option 1 is more beachy. I think you cannot go wrong with either .. go with wichever you feel better in!
Oh that stinks, i am soo sorry to hear that! But at least it is strep, that's good news as it's easily & quickly fixable. Once you are on the antibiotic you get better immeidately. I had strep last year and for me, on day 2 of the anitbiotic I was back to myself.
Feel better!!!

How about a super nice passport holder or travel document holder? It's something totally appropriate to your wedding, and something that they'll be able to use over and over again. Depending on how much you want to spend Tumi makes gorgeous, masculine leather ones.

Hi girls! I'm a true beach worshipper so this is my kinda thread!!! I love hearing about new places
In terms of softness & pure white color of sand, and the blue-ness & clarity of the water, in my mind nothing beats the Carribean, Turks & Caicos and Cayman Islands in particular. If you like smaller-sized boutique hotels, the Rgent Palms in Turks & Caicos is amazing! We looked in to having our wedding there but they get booked up about 2 years in advance!!!

oh Heidi I am so sorry you are dealing with all this now. I'm a big believer that things work out for a reason and in a few months you'll look back on the house that sold yesterday and see it as a blessing that it's not yours. Renting, purchasing, whatever .... it's you guys living together in a house/apt you choose together that is super exciting!! Hang tight, i'm sure it will work out!!!!
