Bet let's not forget that both Victoria & Nick aged about 8 years in 1 week when they went to school in Switzerland....or something to that effect.

She was beautiful before, I am not sure why she felt she needed those. Yeah, what's with the hootchie dress she's wearing to the gala. Looks like a porn convention, not a fundraiser.

where are my Y&R ladies at? What the hell is going to go down tomorrow? They're promoting the crap out of it. I just saw an ad on E! I'm dying to find out if someone gets killed or what.

I just got this today & started crying at my desk. I love this video

I am doing them, but only b/c I am having less than 20 guests and I caught a lot of bargains. My advice would be to make a list of everything you want or would include in the bag, do a price estimate and see how it goes. Like the other posts said, stick to a budget of per bag. Another expense you have to take in consideration is how you're getting the bags to your destination. With these weight allowances chaning with the airlines, you may want to be leary of that fact as well. In all honesty, guests can live with or without the bags, I just thought it was a nice, inexpensive, touch to show them my gratitude for traveling soo far for our special occassion :~) I agree completely. We ordered 25 bags & we'll only need about 16, so it's very manageable for us. We added fun things like beer coozies (which are very appropriate for our attendees), some meds/shoutwipes/eyeglass cleaner/lipbalm from Hawaii (things that may be forgotten at home), local snacks & water, and infomation needed during the trip. None of the items are needed by the guests, but we thought it'd be a nice thing to receive after a long flight from the mainland. If you have the time & money you can go crazy, but something small (even a $5 bag will be appreciated by your guests. Even if it's a few snacks & a bottle of water in a paper gift bag with a note from the two of you.

thanks for posting this. Damn, i guess I really need to start my list since I leave for Maui in a month!

Wow, there really are alot when I start to think about it, but I'm going to narrow down to 1 (just to be different). I've gotta go with my girl, Andi.

Thanks Yari! I may call them ahead of time to see. OOOOH, I can't wait. It's getting so close!!!!!

congratulations & try to have fun! You're getting married!!!

My friends threw me a great Luau themed Bridal Shower on the 12th. It was perfect for me. No cheesy bridal shower games, I broke every bow on the wrapped gifts, and Mai Tais for days. My kind of party. My glass for the day was the coconut. Loved it!! My best friend & MOH...and i didn't have to wear the apron all day jello shots in the pool! instead of wrapping the placesettings, my friends "wrapped" them in extra long beach towels.....FI is so excited, because he's 6'4"! Our friend was a fabulous chef! Nice apron. My sweetie & I

we are having guests mail us a postcard with advice/memories of the day while they are on Maui & we're going to put it in a photo album type book.

Now let me preface by saying that I do not enjoy hearing about the breakups of people in real relationships, however I do not consider any Bachelor/Bachelorette relationship one that's based in reality. That being said....................... who didn't see this coming? Quote: 'Bachelor' Breakup Posted on July 21, 2008 6:14 AM Shocker. "Bachelor" star Matt Grant and Shayne Lamas have ended their relationship. The spilt comes just days after the New York Post reported Shayne cheated on the British bachelor with Las Vegas media mogul Justin Weneger. Lamas reportedly called off the relationship after the allegations surfaced, and insiders say Shayne is currently planning a trip to visit Weneger. Grant presented his final rose and a marriage proposal to Lamas in May, which she accepted in the finale of the ABC reality dating series. Matt reportedly moved to L.A. to be closer to Shayne, an aspiring actress -- and he is said to be heartbroken. This came from Extra in case I need to cite my "source".

OMFG, I finally saw part 1 of this crazy wacko NJ bride. Holy crap, her husband is a moron for going into that pit of fire again. I love when he got the personal trainer for her & she flipped out "ARE YOU CALLING ME FAT!!!" How does she NOT drop dead from a heart attack from all that stress??

I figured we'd be ok with an ABC store. Do you know if they sold cases of water? I love ABC. You can find ANYTHING there!

Such great news! I think I may need to stay away from the forum until after the honeymoon in case this is contagious!!

ok, so here's our predicament. We were planning on stopping at the costco after we land to pick up snacks & waters & such for the OOT bags. But we've discovered that the Maui Onion Festival will be going on the day we arrive (it's usually 2 days, but is only 1 day this year) & since it only runs until 8pm, we're now going to head straight to the hotel & to Whaler's Village(since Costco + Saturday = long waits & parking hell). So, we know it's going to be more expensive, but we're now going to need to get our snacks & stuff near Lahaina at either an ABC Store or Safeway. Has anyone been to that Safeway? Just wondering if they have a decent selection of snack size treats. Thanks!

very cute!
