Darn it, I'll have to look at the video when I get home ~ work computer doesn't support quicktime files But WOW those are some amazing photo teasers

Yes it's always important to save your emails and correspondence!!! I would tell her because of what she said before, you went ahead and booked your photographer already and that a non-refundable deposit has been made. Is he a Cabo local or traveling there for your wedding? If so, I would also tell her that his travel is already booked and paid for so unless they want to refund you for that money then she must abide by what she previously told you. Money threats somehow always seem to work, lol.

Maybe they changed their policy after she already told you it was ok. Nevertheless, she has to honor what you told her in the first place, especially cuz you went ahead and booked someone -- do you have that initial convo with her saying it's ok in writing/email?

ah hahahaha, i love it! moms are always so clever

I am doing HD because like you I've got foodies for guests!!! If there's one thing I've learned at any event or function -- if you put the food out, it's gonna get gobbled up no matter what time of the day it is, lol. If it's something you can fit into your budget, I would definitely do it, even if you have to cut back to just very simple appetizers to reduce the costs.

those are awesome, so tasteful and classy like all the girls have said!!

Hi girls, well I'm finally making a decision on my wedding dress today!!! hehehee, yeah I know I'm totally nuts. I had a hard time finding a dress I was interested in, but am headed to a huge maggie sottero retailer in downtown LA today that apparently has "the dress" I've been eyeing for months now. If that doesn't work out, there's another dress I tried on at another bridal shop last week that I loved too. So big decisions to be made today Good lord, why did I wait so long?

Sending lots of positive vibes your way Shannon ~ everyone is on pins and needles these days because the economy is in the crapper I'm hoping for the best for you, so keep us posted!

FI and I are totally trying to save to buy a house, so the mortgage registry sounds great. Is there a website for this registry? I'm just a little worried that it would offend some of our guests, but in all honesty we'd much rather have money to go toward our house

Awesome contest ~ can't wait to see who wins, whoever it is gets an uber talented photographer!!! Good luck everyone

Amazing planning thread ~ you've got such great taste!! Can't wait to see how it all turns out, perfect I'm sure

YUCK!!!!!! This story just becomes more and more disturbing!!! The latest news is that octo-mom got offered $1 million to be in a hardcore porn film. I swear if this woman accepts, the world is coming to an end!!! Here's the link to the Associated Press story in a San Franscisco newspaper: Octuplets mother offered $1M porn contract

Ooooh Amy and Alyssa I love those covers!!! Great inspirations that I will keep in mind when it comes to getting my book together

Totally agree with everyone ~ I too have noticed that many newbies introductory post include questions that often get ignored. If possible, it's always a nice touch to personalize and truly give a warm welcome!!!

Had to share this find with my gals ~ Old Navy finally has their line of simple but great linen shirts out for spring/summer 2009!!! These are great and affordable options for either the groom or groomsmen, particularly for those beach weddings. They come in either long sleeves ($24.99) or short sleeves ($19.99) in light blue, yellow, white, black, dark brown, or flax (khaki). Also great that they have tall sizes for the tall grooms or groomsmen.

YAY, I finally found some cute linen-blend shirts for my junior groomsmen and my not so little ring bearer/soon to be called a junior groomsmen because he's too damn tall!!! I became frustrated with the idea of potentially spending at least $40+ on boys who are still growing. But Old Navy saved the day!!!! These shirts come in light blue, white, and brown. They are currently priced at $14.50 each and if you use one of these ~ even cheaper!!!! I used the "new30" code (expires 2/26/09) and got em for 30% off Best Deal: Old Navy Coupon Code and Old Navy Coupons Link to the shirts: Women's & Men's Clothes: Plus Size, Maternity, Baby & Kid's Clothing | Old Navy Happy shopping gals .......... will next post on some great men's linen shirts at Old Navy too!!!
