He is so cute! Congrats!

I think all the dresses Morgan posted had similar qualities to that of your dream dress and they all look fabulous! I think if you can't manage to fit the dress in your budget or compromise other aspects of your wedding to include the dress than finding a dress with similar qualities that could still give you the feeling of being a sexy bride on your day is you best bet. But remember the thing you are going to remember the most is how you felt that day and how beautiful and sexy you looked, not how big your bouquet was or how detailed your centerpieces were. Plus all of your guest will be centered on you. So I think if anything break the budget I think it should be your dress! Whatever you do I think you should get a dress that makes you feel best in because you will regret it if you don't.

I haven't tried on the dress, but I really like it. I hope it works out for you!

The invitations look great! Since you love frangipanis so much will you be incorporating them into your wedding decor as well? They are beautiful!

I was under the impression that Claudia could also be used as the photographer included in the wedding package but I was wrong.... Looking back I don't know why I thougtht that, but any way. I sent her an email yesterday and I have already received a response (she was the one who cleared up the whole her included in the package thing). She sent me a price list and the cheapest package I saw was $1300 for 3 hours. She does an amazing job so I am really considering it, even though it totally screws up my budget. Ugh!!!! I thought I could use both her and Juan. Any thoughts?

Hi! Welcome to the forum. I am a Mexico bride too. We went with Cancun. I can't wait to hear about where you decide on!

Hi Ann! Welcome to the forum it is so helpful! Can't wait to hear about the details of your wedding!

That is a perfect Cinderella dress! It would be a great dress if you were getting married in Disney world! Plus if you had a fairy godmother to wave her magic wand and it would be yours, that way you wouldn't have to fork out all that money for it!

My FI proposed to me a week shy of our 1 year anniversary. We will me married 2 years and 2 months after we first met.

Ha Ha Ha! Happy -1 anniversary! What is the present you are suppose to give/get for a -1 anniversary?!

Yeah! We have to see the dress to be able to help you! Plus I just love seeing every ones dress! ***Cheer *** We want to see the dress

Wow your photos were beautiful. The colors were great! Where in the world did you have them taken at?

Your pictures were amazing! Again, I love the hanging flowers to the gazebo! It seems ad though you may have started a trend on here. LOL

Love the slide show. I really liked your bouquets. And I never would have thought white BM dresses were fathomable but they really looked so nice. You and your new husband look so happy! Congrats!

I received my contract via e-mail for next April but wanted to make some additions which I e-mailed to Daniela. I haven't heard back yet, it has been almost a month. I guess I will feel more reassured that my date is set in stone after I pay the deposit. I also am a little nervous about the whole deposit and contract issue. On the web site it clearly states that they do not consider your date confirmed until you sign the contract and they received the deposit, so I wanted to get these things done as soon as possible. I have been working with Daniella since March on sending me a contract and me sending the deposit, but NOTHING has been accomplished yet! Since day one I have been trying to give her my money to assure my date was saved for me, but she doesn't want it! She told me not to send any money until the contract was complete and she does not seem to be in any rush to complete the contract. I told her my concern over our date being reserved for us and she confirmed with me that despite the lack of a contract and a deposit being received by Dreams the date has been reserved for me. So I can do nothing but take her on her word. I have recently petitioned Jennifer, the TA that is on here, to assist me with booking and she has told me she is also trying to confirm our date so hopefully she will help move things along. My date is in May 2009 so I too do not think there is any rhym or reason behind when they request the deposits.

"Nickel and Diming" me to death!!! Ok so I have been working with Daniella too and i also had requested pictures of flowers included in the package and those in the VIP catagory. She sent me the same pictures she sent to you in the first doc you posted and told me those were the flowers included in the package. Then she sent picture which appear to look similar to the ones in docs 2 and 3 you posted, but she told me that those were in the VIP catagory and i would have to pay more for those. The price range for those flowers were I believe $120-200! The docs she sent were in a different format and had prices with them, so I don't know if things had change from the time you spoke with her and then when I did but I am confused! First i don't understand why to upgrade my flowers that are included in a package I purchased I should have to pay an additional $120-200 just for my flowers alone! Plus why is it that so many people have been told so many different things?!

LOL I love the cake pic! You guys looked like you had so much fun! I wish I was laying on a bar in Jamacia now getting shots poured in my mouth! I also like the picture of your gals walking down the beach with the parasols, I think you have just sold me on the idea. I can't wait to see more pictures! Congrats!

That is cute! LOL I am sure he will love it!

The invitations are regal. But the picture of the shrimp makes me not want to eat it! LOL It looks much more appealing when its head is chopped off!

Whoever threw your shower did a great job! The tables and flowers and the desserts looked very nice! You have some great girl friends! The video game was a cute idea! And I am happy that everything went well between every one. I don't know if I will be able to get my FMIL and FSMIL in a picture ever! I am lucky if they can be in the same room together without killing each other.

Beautiful! Can't wait to see the pictures of you in it at the wedding, I am sure you will look much happier then. LOL
