Wore the gaudiest dress ever to my wedding, and was swimming every day in shorts and a white t-shirt, no bra (the sunburn hurt her back, she says. Oh and her toast was "may all of your up's and down's be in the bedroom!" Did I mention she didn't even give us a card? Come on ladies, tell me about your MIL's!!! OMG that is terrible! So sorry she put you through all of that at your wedding!

Insurance was also super easy, they didn't even need to see any documentation! I am glad I tried to change everything now rather than wait the MONTHS the official license is going to take. I feel officially married now! The SS office let me do it with the certified copy from the minister but the DMV would not...they went online to see what the actual license from Jamaica looked like and would not accept it....sooo annoying!

I think he has been writing it for years! Yes they had a microphone for speeches...my sister and DH's brothers gave speeches. They set a TV and DVD player so we could watch a video montage that my cousin made
  9. Congrats and welcome...there are other men on here but you guys are defiantly the minority
  10. Happy Thanksgiving to all you Canadian chickies!

Does anyone know if we can use the Certified Copy of the Marriage Register that you sign during the ceremony to change your name? It does say it is a certified copy? I really wanted to get on my hubby's insurance before the end of the year. I tried to use it at both the DMV and SS office. It worked at the SS but not the DMV so now I am waiting...it's so annoying!

My only concern is, what is there to do when there is such a gap between the ceremony and dinner? I am searching around for ideas. What time is your ceremony? Our ceremony was at noon and our reception wasn't until 6. We took pictures after the ceremony with everyone then our guests went in the pool or napped and they all had fun...DH and I went back to our room with some of the bridal party and ate and drank and cooled off. At 5pm DH and I went to the beach to take pictures by ourselves. I was afraid that the gap was too big but it worked out perfectly
