Erin rocks!!!

What ship and itinerary are you doing?

RCCL told us to bring our passports off the ship. They said it would be required to get back on. I remember them checking sometimes and other times not at all. We took ours off the ship in Jamaica and Mexico. We left it in the safe in Labadee.

I LOVED the pile on Robin with Dr. Drew! So funny!

This story is so heartbreaking...

I would love to see some cupcake recipes if anyone wants to share!!

So I just had my wedding only 5 weeks ago. We planned on sending thank you cards to all that attended, regardless of receiving a gift. I wanted to wait until all pictures were back so we could make personalized cards. I hear through the family grapevine that someone is upset they haven't received a thank you and can't believe I didn't send one! Um, hello?! We just got back! Geesh! That was frustrating. DH said we should skip them when we do send out the cards...but of course we sent one. And the kicker was I had personally thanked them during the trip for their generous gift!

Great idea Erin! It's so fun to see how the married ladies are doing! DH & I have been married for a little over 1 month and together for over 13 years. I love married life and calling him my husband! Planning for me was taken to an entire new level after discovering BDW! I found so many inpirations for DIY projects and that is the part I miss. I am very happy to be done trying to organize our guests . Even though we told ourselves we wouldn't worry about anyone else on the cruise it's way easier said than done. Everyone got along great, but it was an intense week having them all together. Thoughts of expanding our family are keeping us busy right now . I've been sticking around BDW because of the awesome people I have met here! And I really want to see the girls who are yet to be married through their weddings! I also love to help out other cruise brides if I can.

Looking good Abbie!

I'm so glad you can finally get this out there Heather. Unnamed photographer is whacky and who needs that on their wedding day. Too bad because she is talented. What makes me extremeley annoyed is the LOSER who took a screenshot of your post and stuck their nose where it didn't belong. Talk about needing to get a life and showing your true colors to people you called "friends".

You looked beautiful Jenn! Sorry the resort was rude to you. I cannot believe the comment about not caring you were there for your wedding. So rude!

He's beautiful! Congratulations!

We actually made all of the stickers. It's really easy...just design what you want on PowerPoint or whatever program you feel comfortable with, buy some sticker paper, print them out and cut them, and there you have it!

Because it was a cruise everyone had to book pretty quickly because our block of cabins would only be held for so long. Of course we had 6 people decide to come at the last minute and book on their own (not with our TA).

First of all, congrats! I just got back from my cruise wedding and it was a great time. When choosing a location look at marriage requirements. You won't be able to have a legal wedding everywhere coming off a cruise. I also recommend picking a docking port vs. a tendering port. Tendering ports can be missed due to weather, sea conditions, etc. From our experience with the weather in February I would avoid December - February. I attended a cruise wedding to the Eastern Caribbean, wedding in St. Thomas. It was gorgeous!Check out my review (link in my siggy) for more info on our wedding cruise.

You look beautiful Cattie! Congrats!

I was surprised Ju'Not Joiner (sp?) didn't get to come back. He was so good!!

Check out my planning thread (link in my siggy). I have pics of my MIBs along with a link to the website. Good luck!

Then Deanna told him that she went w/ her heart and chose the wild side and was the worst decision she made. From that moment I just had a feeling he would pick melissa. Anyone else think that? I was wondering the same thing. The whole discussion Jason and Deanna had about the safe choice versus the wild card.

I just caught the Howard 100 News on my way home. They had a breaking news story...Artie is at the Letterman show WITH Dana and introducing her to everyone as his girlfriend!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm so happy for them! I think she will really help him continue being on the wagon.

I would go with your original plan of having him match the others. Thinking of pictures, would it look out of place to have him in black?

I'm also going to agree with Susan, Ann, and Jacilynda's comments! Well said. I wonder what the heck they will talk about for an hour tonight?

I think Melissa knew it was coming but was still totally hurt by him. I also don't think this was all planned and plotted. Jason wouldn't have put his kid/family/self through this. Who the heck would want to deal with the fallout and negative public attention? But it does bug the heck out of me when he tells Molly he is just asking to take it slow, see where it goes, and then ends it with something about loving her forever and ever. I think he was majorily confused and in love with two women. Here's an article from People.com today: Jason: ‘I’m Not Proud of What I Had to Do’ - PEOPLE TV Watch

Congrats ladies!!!

I have heard that you shouldn't mention you are bringing your own photographer. And if asked, it's just a friend with photo skills!
