Soon To Be Mrs. Gomez

Stunning! I love all of them.

Wow! The Day is finally here ha? So happy for you, May Bride. Love the dress! You look great, how much weight did you lose? You worked hard. Congrats!

yeah I think that ivory is so close to white that it will go with any color. I'm wearing gold shoes with my ivory wedding dress.

Woo Hoo! You girl! Love the undie shot.

Welcome! Yeay for you choosing a destination wedding!

Hello. I never welcomed you officially but you have been great on giving advice about Cabo .

Thanks for reminding us. I actually remembered and bought a fruit bouquet for my receptionist but I think the rest of the people forgot.

Thanks Erika. I guess I'll email Yesica to get a complete list but you have helped.

Okay so I know that Dreams has a vendor list which they pre-approved. Does anyone have a list of the photographers, florists, d.j. , rental companies because my WC hasn't given me this info yet; she is actually lagging so I may have to plan on my in 3 weeks.

Wow! Marco is winning an award. Great! I'm sooo happy he will be performing my ceremony. I'm pumped now!!

Those hot pink ones are gorgeous!!!!

Thanks girls! I hate this issue. How come men don't have this problem. ugh!! I'm going to run to CVS soon.

Hi. I think there is thread but I cannot find it but I'm wondering about taking some maracas with me to Cabo. They will be my escort cards, but today the mail lady told me that if any items are "made in china" the Mexican officials will confiscate. I'm stressing now. The marcaas I bought from OTC are made in China.

Thanks. I have kind of been stressing about DIY things

It's sad how you are feeling but it seems like your FI was way too quick to call off wedding. You need to really think this through and remember people don't change so if FI said that things would be different after you get married; he is lying! Sorry. I don't mean to be harsh either but us women need to be strong and know what we are worth.

Wow! Totally magazine model. Your Fi will enjoy!

The most I have spent is on exercise classes (cardio barre). about $150.00 for a 10 class series that has to be renwed almost monthly. I love most of my results but I still want a better rock hard body. Oh well! I will be waxing and all that stuff and I want gel nails for the wedding because I don't want to hassle with nail polish coming off etc.. I am still considering teeth whitening but have not actually bought it yet. I'm doing OTC because I's afraid of the sensitivity issue. I tried to save $$$ by taking out my highlights and just going one color.

I think long veils are pretty. I did not choose one because I really did not want one so I just picked a short one. I think you could do long because chiffon is good material to match with a veil

I hate complainers. I know it's hard but try not to care and maybe people's attitudes will change.

Oh thatsucks. I hate annoying phone calls. Maybe you should complain

So I live in los angeles area and right now there is a heat wave. So of course with my luck, I went for a dress fitting yesterday in 100 degrees and I was so sticky hot and swollen. My dress just did not look so great because of my bloat & my feet were swollen so my shoes felt uncomfortable too. I was totally freakin out and I felt so depressed and I kept thinking what a loser I was for not having lost enough weight so my mom tried to calm me down by telling me that the heat caused the swelling and suggested I take water pills and to even take them to Cabo so I'm not bloated over there. Any other brides have this issue with marying in the heat? How did th heat affcet your body and did it cause your dress to fit snug. Anyone suggest a good water pill.

yeah. I know alot of people like the chaep prices on expedia but I'd rather use a personal TA
