I watched it last night! That picture they took was creapy!!!

Stunning! You look great!!!!!

Yay! I can't wait to see them!!! When is your AHR?

Erin! I don't know how I missed this thread!! I actually only found it because I searched for threads started by you with "pics" in the subject line LOL You look beautiful! and it looks like you had a great day! Have you gotten any more pictures from guests?

Glad they're working with you! It's gotta be a huge weight lifted.

We are using... He slipped the ring on her finger A promise made for life... Join us as we share their joy Now that they are man and wife. XXXXX and XXXXX Exchanged wedding vows on January 17, 2009 in Cancun, Mexico Not everyone could attend So whydoes the party have to end?! Please join us for a party to Honor the Newlyweds April XX, 2009 [time] [location] Given by XXXXXXXXXX RSVP March 31 *Celebrating with us is the greatest gift you could give!*

WOW...unfortunately, I can't think of much more to say. Tell them to take the job and shove it. It sounds like you'll be MUCH happier not working there. I go by "everything happens for a reason" too...helps keep my sanity!!! Hang in there! We're here if you need anything!

The little tins, did they already have candels in them or did you have to buy those seperate? If so, what kind are you buying?

At the end of the day, every relationship goes through ups and downs, and only you know if this is the right thing for you. I agree with people that say that you shouldn't worry about the people that have spent money etc, this is your life, worth more than any amounts money . As I mentioned in my MP thread a while ago, my FI and I also had problems with him telling me i was obsessing over the wedding. At that time I told him he may be right, but he obsesses over other things like baseball, so to let me be and I would let him be...and that he should love me for who I am even if I am obsessed with the wedding (which I am not, in fact I didn't even want one but for him asking for one). Since the day I told him that he was sooo nice, even telling me he was going to pay for most of the wedding and that he would let me choose whatever I wanted (within the budget of course)...I hope he doesn't take that back LOL As far as the cleaning thing, I am not rich by any means, but before I moved in with my FI, I told him we had to work out the cleaning situation and we both came to an agreement that we would hire a cleaning lady to come every 15 days. That has worked well, I am not saying it is perfect, but it has helped the situation regarding the cleaning. Counseling helps for sure as you have an outsider that looks in and takes a neutral position. I would like for you to be happy, so whatever decision you make I am confident you will make the right one, and everyone that cares for you will stand by your decision...after all, it is you who will live with the decisions, so you should make the decision based on what you think is right regardless of what everyone else thinks. I am glad to hear things are better with your FI, and wish you the best of luck! Awe Thanks! You gave me that "warm fuzzy" feeling. I think things will be fine, and you're right...I'm the only one who can choose what's right for me. Time will tell...one day at a time This board has been a life saver!

Not sure if you read my other thread about FI and I having some issues....that's why I haven't really been particiapting too much in this thread (been stalking it though LOL). I've stoped doing things wedding related for a little bit but hopefully it's just a little bump and we get past it Are you getting excited? It's getting close!!

Just an FYI...I was told that you can only have an outside photographer if a) they were a guest at the hotel and they were not based in Mexico. You might want to look into it.

Those are great!!

Ok, I think I've seen them all LOL I'll keep an eye out for more

Wow! They look awesome! Great job!!!

**HUG** You'll get through this. I'll say a few prayers for you and your family. Even though you're having all these issues, I still want to say congratulations on teh condo!

It sounds like you handled it well...and surprisingly, so did she... Keep us updated on how things are going and if she's just being manipulative

Very nice!

The OOT cards match the brochures that are going in the OOT bags. I have paid maybe $25 for shipping for all of it. I am not the creative/scrapbooker/DIY type, so Vista Print has been my lifesaver with all of this stuff! Have you posted pictures of all this stuff? If not, do so! (I might want to copy some of your ideas....I;m already planning on doing the tee shirt one )

His sister told me yesterday that I'm honestly the only girlfriend of his who doesn't deserve the crap he puts me thorough. I mented something about cleaning yesterrday and he was like "you still haven't made that list". I told him that I did have it made, but he didn't want to see it so I left him be. When we got home I gave it to him and he was like "you only put my name next to like 5 things" me "yeah, but they're big things" him "give me the pen" and then he crossed my name off a few things and assigned them to himself. Lets see how long this lasts LOL We were at his parnts last night for dinner with his sister and mom and on the way home he was getting upset with the situation there (dad living in the basement and hasn't spoken to FSIL since Feb, and FMIL for about 4 weeks). He said that he tried to explain to his dad how the is affecting EVERYONE including us even though we don't live there, but he just ignores it. It's funny because he was listing all the reasons his mom complained about his dad...didn't dust, didn't clean this right or that right...and FI went on to say that's how he is, you don't like it you do it...I just gave his sister a look and she laughed. He was saying the same thing in the car on the way home and I just looked at him and he was like "don't turn this around on me, it's different" because he KNOWS that it's exactly the same thing!!! Ok, I think I'm done rambling for now

YAY! Exciting!!!

OMG I NEVER would have thought you were plus sized based on that pic!!!!!! You look great!

Celina, those look GREAT!!!! Did you make your own template or was it one of the pre created ones they have?

I use snapfish for sharing photos. I've also ordered prints from them and christmas cards. I've been happy with everything I've gotten from them. One of the things I like most about snapfish is that I can send the pictures I want to walgreens or staples and pick them up in an hour (even the christmas cards). For FI's sisters wedding, we took almost 200 pics, that night, we uploaded them to snapfish and sent them to walgreens. Picked them up before brunch and handed them to her at brunch. She was floored LOL I've never done a photo book through them though or had the pics sent to me mail order. I'm too impatient, I'll pay a few cents more a print an pick them up in an hour.

UGH, I had this whole thing written, then it went away...so lets try again... Thanks for all the support ladies! You have no idea how much it means to me!! Rachel, I'm definately going to get that book. Maybe after I read it, FI will. He's been being super nice to me. It might be because he knows he was a schmomo or it's because my birthday is Monday or it's because of both reasons. But there's a band I love and he said if they go on tour anywhere on the east (about 6 hr driving limit) to get tickets and we can make a weekend out of it. He normally doesn't suggest or want to do things like that. I know the change isn't permanent. People on change temporarly when they HAVE to and as soon as they get comfortable they go right back to being themselves. The only time someone changes is because THEY want to. I am still going to go to a couselor. While I love him and want to be with him and have kids with him, I'm having some doubt now about if I want to raise children in this kind of a household and he KNOWS that I want kids. One day at a time! Everything happens for a reason and works out in the long run...even if it suckes in the short term. In general though, right now, things are good

Wow, this sucks! I agree that if your mom invited her, and your mom doesn't want her there, then your mom should tell her. On the other hand your mom probably won't. Maybe if you call her and tell her something like this... "I don't think my parents were going to say anythign because they don't want to hurt your feelings, but they are planning to spend the second week of the vacation, just the two of them...sort of like a second honeymoon to celebrate their 35th anniversary. I just wanted you to know that, so if you do book for the whole two weeks, you know that they'll be out and about doing their own thing. You are invited with a guest, so if you want to bring a friend or family member or something you're more than welcome to". of course, that's if she is invited with a guest.
