Congratualations! I bought mine at 9 mos (now the trick is just to not get pregnant...). I think it is easier to plan the rest of the wedding if you know what your look is for the day (as we all know that it will all revolve around us...right....?)

We are still discussing this, but are going in the same direction. We thought about doing just the 2 of us with his daughter as the FG. We have 35-40 ppl going and already told our closest friend that we may not have them stand up. No one is offended and still planning the shower and bachelor/ette parties as if they were standing up with us.

I really like the two-toned one. Very sweet looking.

How sweet~what a beautiful box. A very thoughtful gift!

I decided against using a TA as we don't have many people coming from the same place so there wouldn't be enough guests from each location for a discount. Most of our guests commented on using Am Ex (travel service) and points, using points from AA and Alaska. So we now have officially us, plus 10 guests booked with flights! I would think a TA might help if you are all leaving from one spot but otherwise, not really and typically guests can get better deals through hunting down their own (no booking fees). Good Luck!

These came out beautiful Milena! Great job

This is so exciting! Congratulations!

WOW! Talented little one....I like #2 the best. I would make the text a little bigger.

Most importantly, CONGRATULATIONS to you! You have had a very difficult past couple of years and you both stood by each other and did what needed to be done. What an honor to be chosen for your program, congrats on your graduation! I would find out how many have actually booked flights (as many will not once they see current pricing). I would also talk to your WC to see what can be done to bring the costs down where people won't notice.

These are great Victoria! Can't wait to see the rest...your photographer does nice work!

There is a learning to speak spanish software at Costco for about $45 that I hear is pretty good?

We are in April as well. We sent our STD's last week and the webiste is up for people to check. We are sending invites out in January.

These came out wonderful! I love the sunrise shot with you two against the rocks... Congratualtions!

Harty, As there is nothing anyone can say and as you have said,most cliches make you want to lash out, know there is a site here full of women (and men) that support you. I am very sorry for your loss, I can't imagine how diffiicult this is for you. My thoughts are with you and your FI during this emotional time.

I am sorry for your cousin, but glad this all worked out for you! Now you can focus on all your DIY and fabulous to be wedding!

Yes as we have people from all over coming there wouldn't be enough from any one location to get a discount (and most that already booked used points).

Our wedding and site visit flights are booked! I booked our wedding flights today using points and money to save on the cost. I figured I needed to book as I already have 5 family members and my best friend booked. So excited!!!!

I would also recommend Lazy Gourmet...I have been to more than 5 events with them and the food, service and decor were fabulous!

Congratulations on a beautiful setup! Time for the final count down! You did a wonderful job on everything!

For my birthday, my mom decided to send me something old....she is so cute! She sent me a beaded hand bag that looks brand new that she got for her college graduation (60's). She also sent me a gold peso she had bought in Mexico in 1973 with my father and another couple (who will be at my wedding also). The date on the peso is my moms year of birth, 1945. She had thought to put the peso in my shoe for the tradition of a penny in your shoe brings good luck (thought this was a great idea). However, she did tell me that in her wedding scrapbook (which I have) there are two pennies that my grandfather put in her shoes when she married my father (he said if 1 is good luck then two is great luck). He is long passed and was a very special part of my life, so I think I am going to use his pennies in my shoes. So, long story short....my question is does anyone have experience putting a penny in a strappy shoe? I was not planning on wearing closed toed shoes but I would hate to lose his pennies? I will carry the handbag and am going to put the gold peso in my bokay (she had it bezzled and made into a necklace for me)...she is soooo cute!

I checked American Airlines who flies direct from LAX to Cabo, but there's a trick to booking (I found out the hard way). 1) BOOK ON A WEDNESDAY. That's when all major airlines have cheaper rates for the week. 2) When you go on the site, Airline Tickets and Airline Reservations from American Airlines | AA.com, instead of going directly to "book a flight", on the left hand side there are tabs. Click on the one that says "Net SAAvers & Special offers", then click on "fare sales". Put in the city to and from, then it will bring up their sale rate. Then I added my 10% group discount** and bought my parents' tickets from LAX to Cabo for $352 for a straight flight!!! OMG I was SO relieved I even bought my sister one just to make sure they booked!! This was just last week. Today, it went down to $339. I called to see if they would do a rate adjustment, but they said they'd charge a $150 change fee (uh, no thanks!). Hope that helps anyone who is still needing to book from LAX. **When you have a group coming from one area, call the airline group rate and they will set you up with a 10% discount. This is FANTASTIC! Unfortunately it only has them until 12/10 but for those of you that have not bought yet, i found it this morning LAX to SJD before 12/10 for $262....wow, cheapest I have seen in 2 mos!

That is hilarious! Pray for no quick stops!

WOW! You ladies are gorgeous! These are HOT!!!!
