I personally wouldn't give anyone any money without a quote/contract in writing. Without this they can bill you whatever they want and keep your deposit...

I will be doing a brochure on Cabo and the resorts (as many are staying elsewhere). For the personal note, I used Vista print to make postcards of a picture of the arch in Cabo on the front. A line thanking them for joining us on the back. We are going to write them each a personal post card and put it in the bag. It cost me 2.99 + shipping for 100 cards.

Thanks so much! I wasn't sure what the range was. I will add it to the ever-growing budget! I like the idea of doing private that includes some group classes...I will look for that. Thanks for the feedback!

I hope the surgery went well and you are recovering with little pain. We are thinking of you!

Those are darling! Great find!

Oh Yeah!!!! Thanks for the feedback....I feel like I can now justify going over my budget for the shoes (doubling really)...oops. Thanks for the feedback....all my mom said was "I thought you were goign to wear blue...."

I feel much better now. Can't wait for them to get here this week!

What do you think. I was going to either go with a blue or a red shoe and I keep coming back to this one. Finally found it at NM the other day, didn't have my size but he called me and found 1 in my size out of 75 stores....must be meant to be.

Thoughts? Keep it or keep looking?

Here is the dress again:

Here is the shoe

On me (this was the one that was too small)

January is a beautiful month there. It is warm, but I wouldn't worry about heat stroke.

I would say stick with the necklace. The earrings will be too much and distract from the dress. Pretty...

Cabo is VERY busy in March! February is better for whales, prices, and crowds....

Happy Planning!

I am having them price something out for them (I have their price list if you need it). They put some tables together for me, but the colors are not right so I am goign to make my own linens now and just use them for chargers/glasses/etc.

I am personally staying away from teh starfish, palm tree motif, but have decided to use Japanese woven grass paper in my invites, table/name cards, menu pockets, etc to give it a beach feel but remaining elegant.

Pedregal is the furtherst point in Los Cabos from SJD and San Jose. It is on the Pacific side (north of the arches). It takes 30 min to get to San Jose and another 10-15 to get to the airport.

depending on where you look for them, they are called Chuppah's, Huppah's, or arches. The only pics I have are simple as I do not want flowers on mine.

WOW! How did I miss this one! Welcome home and congratulations on being a MRS.!

You look gorgeous! Can't wait to see it all.

WOW! You are all AMAZING!!! I LOVE BDW Brides! I had no idea there was a tape I could use (I will stop hunting online for a sewing machine now)

Love the projector idea (I could borrow the one from work and maybe my crafty girlfriend could paint it for me)

I guess I will logon to Joann's and see if I can find a coupon.

Does anyone know how much fabric is needed for sashes and napkins? I dont even know what size these are). Table runners I guess will depend on what size/shape tables I will have....wow...more to do!

Thank you all so much!

I would wear a pretty wedge...there are a lot of them adn could probably get some on sale from summer still...

I am so sorry! That is why my FI won't let me buy mine yet...my Frenchie only chews on my shoes...nothing else.

Good Luck

The haircut is darling....but, here is my take....bangs have a mind of their own and can take forever to grow out. Botox...my new best friend (well no so new) if done properly will eliminate the line an leave everything else moveable. Make sure you research the person you use. I only go 1x per year and it is to get my concentration wrinkles from between my eybrows. I can still move my forehead (even when he put a little there). One time he even arch'd my eyebrows for me just for fun and that was pretty cool.

I will say though...I don't see a wrinkle on you? STEP AWAY FROM THE MAGNIFYING GLASS!!!

I am enlisting the help of all local friends and family that are goign down. Especially those with babies (as they are entitled to 2 bags also, and their closthes take up so little space). Everyone has actually been offering to mule things down so i didn't even have to ask

YEAH! I am so jealous....this waiting is so tough. Are you goign to wait until 10/4 to go see it or are you goign to go peek before hand?

Post Pics at your fitting, we can't wait to see it!

Have any of you taken dance lessons? We fell in love over a salsa and I used to live in Mexico so we can both make our way around the floor, but I highly doubt it is proper "salsa/rumba" (but we have lots of fun).

I was thinking (and got him to agree to lessons). We are goign to do our song as a Paso Doble most likely so I am looking for 1 choreograhped song (that won't look learned/staged) and salsa lessons so we can wing it through the night.

I started looking around and am told about 10 lessons needed and it runs $75-100 per less. Is that right?

Does anyone have any suggestions in Orange County? Thanks in advance.

The pictures of runners, napkins, sashes that they have been sending me are all just a bit off in color. Did anyone go to a fabric store and make their own? Is this very time consuming/difficult? Would it be less expensive?

I am hating trying to pick my decorations and linen color via emailed pics as I cannot put the ribbon and such with it to see how far off it is...

Suggestions?

I like the pink, but it depends on what he is wearing?

Right click on the image and select grouping. then click ungroup. This will seperate out each section. double click on the section adn choose your color from the fill color in the box that pops up (you can out line it or whatever with the other tools in that box). Just remember once it is ungouped, you can move each section arount (which can make it better or mess it up if not careful so save as you go).

good Luck
