I called the MP to book the date and faxed in the request the very same day! They just e-mailed me the contract on Friday so now we have to sign it and send it back I had some problems faxing our request to mp, mainly because i'm in the uk and didn't know what area code to use...I was using mexico...but h2b worked out it was usa!!lol so the fax went on thursday, and we also scanned in a copy and emailed it to them to be extra safe!lol I got an email response on friday saying they had received it, so really, its only been 3 working days, but I'm just dying to get it all finalised! They say on their website it takes upto 48 hours for the contract to be emailed, but I don't want to be pushy as its so far in advance! This waiting game is getting the better of me!! I'm sure your weight lose continue lady! It is really hard to stay motivated though. We went january with only one takeaway and we were fine. But this month, we have had 3 already I blame valentines day....it gave me the cravings!! Oh well, suppose it can't all be easy, then it wouldn't be worth it, would it?! Anyway, hopefully next time we chat, i'll have the contract!! wwoooo hooo

oh yeah, and we got personalised stamps made and put them on the rsvp envelopes, so there is NO excuse!!

We are getting married next year, but sent out our std's this week, with a deadline of the end of march, as we are going to the ta at the very beginning of april. We have stated that if people are wanting us to book for us, with the chance of getting a possible group discount, to rsvp us before then. If we don't hear from anyone, i'm certainly not going to chase anyone! I'll keep you all posted on how our rsvp's work out!hee hee

hey girlies Had my weigh in yesterday - another week of no weight lose/gain for me I was convinced i had put on though, so better than expected. I have started walking back from work, and to work whenever i can, and i forget that is a form of exercise...so its all obviously helping! woo hoo no goal for next week as auntie flow is coming!! hee hee Veronica - I have to ask, I noticed a few weeks ago you said on the mp thread you had requested your date for 2010 - have you heard anything back yet? I'm peeing myself waiting!

I'm really sorry to hear about this. It has taken alot of courage for you to do this, especially so soon after your wedding. But you have to do what is right for you and your kids...doesn't matter if you have been married 2 months or 2 years...if it's not working there is no point trying. We are all here for you lady, and i'm sending big hugs your way right now.

We aren't doing them either. I hadn't heard of them before I joined this forum, so I doubt my guests will have! When I first joined this forum, I did get carried away, and started including costs of OOT bags into our budget...but our budget just swirled out of control from there! So we cut back, and I'm not too bothered to be honest...one less thing to worry about! Good luck with the rest of your planning!

The loop hole in the case of a Mexican photographer is to pay for a full nights stay and have them there as your "guest". I didn't know that...I thought i'd get away with doing the day pass thing! but as long as we will get away with it after them staying in the hotel for the night...then i'm happy doing that! hee hee for all a nights stay is! We had originally been looking at elizabeth medina, but i think she would have needed more than one night as she isn't based in cancun..but the photographer we have went with is based local, so i'm pretty sure we'll get away with just the one night. Thanks for the heads up lady! I wasn't going to mention it to anyone at mp...like someone else had said on here, i decided it would be easier to ask for forgiven, than permission!

hey all we are getting married at moon palace, and were planning on moving to le blanc for the 2nd week of our stay, however our ta has a twin centre package set up already with asp...the hotel itself looks gorgeous, however, i'm wondering about the beach situation...I know it is a lagoon directly infront of the resort...but is there any beaches close-by? I don't think i could go a week without some sand, but at the same time, the prices the ta are giving for mp & asp are really great....please help ladies!

hey all, i know everyone keeps saying about moon palace's strict no outside vendor policy, but past brides have got around it by purchasing a guest pass for the photographer....meaning they can shoot the wedding! Thats what we plan on doing.

hey lisa - congrats on the healthy weight lose - its such a great feeling to be going in the right direction, isn't it?! i'll be honest, i'm SURE i'll have put on this week i've ate quite a lot of chocolate, and we had our valentine's dinner out last night due to work commitments tomorrow, and i haven't exercised enough..but there is always next week! Oh, and happy valentines day all you lovely brides to be! I hope all our h2b's treat us like the princess's we all are!

your pictures are AMAZING!!!! waw

what i've found myself doing is, looking through all the gorgeous past brides photos on here, and saving pictures that i like. I know the photographer will know what basic photos to take, but i want some different ones done, so this way, i'll be able to show her! Thats a good idea about the ppl we want photos with though, didn't think of that! Also, we are getting married at mp, and are going to use a cancun based photographer for our wedding. The photos i've seen from the mp photographers look good, but i want better...and a ttd session!

waw you ladies are soo lucky...hopefully mp will follow suit!

it was just on the 6pm news over here, and we got to hear his voice in a recorded interview with the press - he is sooo young - didn't know what a lot of simple questions meant....kinda heartbreaking that this was allowed to happen. I know what you mean about the girl, she does look soo much older than him

welcome to the forum joshua! i am a may 2010 bride, so i'm sure well cross paths again!

nightmare! at least you didn't pay for them!

hi dani - thats so nice you have joined here to help your friend - I hope you got that treatment 4 months ago! Anyway, welcome to the board - we may get chatting at one point - i'm in the mp camp!

i saw that article about 10mins ago - can't believe it has hit the states!lol he does look really young....crazy kids!

thanks jodimichelle - i can't wait! i just wish we could get it done already!

hey girlies - anyone got any word on when we can start booking our 2010 dates yet?! I thought it would have been last month

Hey girlies - me had a good week - 3lb lose! I didn't see it coming - thought it would be one pound - think i've worked out the trick though. I worked out loads last week, but didn't compensate for the energy I was using up ie i didn't eat anymore - and the result was i didn't lose...but this week, i did work out as much, and kept to my healthy eating...and hey presto - i lost! woo hoo Just in from a 2 hour session at the gym...body attack then legs,bums and thighs...oh i'm dying! I love the pain! Vgirl I know how your feeling - aunty flow visited a few weeks ago for me...but i think you'll find if your good this week, the results will be impressive after 2 good weeks! I know how hard it is to stay focused when the scales haven't budged though! What i done last week after my no weigh lose was started measuring myself, because chances are, if the scales don't change but you've been good, your loosing it in inches! Anyhoo..going to go sleep and hope the pain gets worse tomorrow....means it was a real workout! hee hee target for next week - 1lb = totalling 1 stone!! woo hoo i'm fighting for it!! good luck girlies - and stay focussed - think of that dress in 2010! xxxxxxx

Well its been a few days since weigh-in and i've not had any cheese yet! Not really missing it yet. I don't feel like i'm loosing this week, even though i managed to go to a fitness class BEFORE work yesterday!phew!lol anyway, i'm changing my target to a 1lb this week - i don't know what made me think up 2lb!!! i'll be at my target by June if I lose a steady pound each week!woo hoo good luck ladies - keep up the good work - we'll all be slim brides-to-be in no time!

waw they are soo nice - very different indeed!
