I finally went dress shopping this past weekend. I went to 3 different stores and in the end I have a couple of favs but haven’t found the one yet. Think mostly because there are a couple of Maggie Sottero’s that I really want to try on but the problem is 2 of the store that I went to that carry Maggies mostly have strapless ones when I really don’t want a strapless. So first I went to David’s Bridal, I was overall it was good but since this was my first time trying on dress I had nothing else to compare it to. They had every dress I wanted to try on there which was a plus but the consultant really just went thru the motions and pulled the 7 or so dress. No input on what to try on or clipping the straps so they were not so big. The second place, the consultants was great, it was a small store and only had one of the Maggies that I wanted to try on but she had me try on 8 or so dresses and would listen to what I liked and didn’t like and try to find something that I was looking for. The last place started off rocky but ended up being great. They had a bigger section of Maggies. As of right now 5 and 8 are my favs. #1 David’s Bridal T9612 #2 Davids Bridal T9861 #3 Maggie Sottero- Fredricka (made my butt look really good!) #4 Casablanca 1850 (Love how it makes my waist look but don’t like the top but with Casablanca they will change to other style if you want) #5 Maggie Sottero- Karena #6 Maggie Sottero-Nyna #7 Maggie Sottero- Caleigha #8 Maggie Sottero- Laurel (added the strap on) #9 Maggie Sottero- Reese

Lovely, very beachy!

Thanks Nadine! I was also wondering the same thing as well. I'm pretty sure now we will skip the cocktail hour and tell everyone to met at one of the bars.

Love your pictures amazing!!! Love the one of your earrings with the sparkle!

I have heard between 90 min to 2 hours. i think it mostly depends on if they stop for drinks/food on the way.

I used to go to Dorney all the time when i was little, it cost less than GA, the water park is included in the price. Idk about GA water rides but dorney has a lot of them. but GA has better roller coasters. I like to go to dorney on labor day, if the weather is nice, no one is there. we would just walk right up to a ride and get right on.

But the wedding coordinator hasn't gotten back to me (the DT coordinator has written me twice already) and i'm nervous about some of the reviews on the resort itself... I think doing a site visit is amazing- I wish I could do the same. It seems like there are a million Dreams Tulum brides but no La Romana brides! I have all the details I want on DT - but would love to know more about La Romana! I guess it's because it's so new? I'm booked for next May at DLR, PM me with your email if you want me to send info that the WC send me. She was quick to respond to me but that was back in March/April and i think she has gotten a lot busier and need to hire her an assistant.

I just put my name and our address on them and got them from vistaprint as well

Congrats!! I'll be there 2 weeks before.

I was asked to give this information to him. If I had to do it again, I would have declined and preferred not to get involved." Hmm...I think there's more to it than she's willing to divulge..but I'm sorry but as sad as Danielle's past was I just can't be that sympathetic towards her but I did think it was good that they had some sort of closure between Dina & Danielle A girl a work had more info and said that Danielle told lexi's father to sue Dina b/c he did not sign a consent form for lexi's to be filmed but Dina's consent was enough so it didnt go anywhere. If that is true, i dont see why caroline would get that upset.

Soooo pretty in the blue, and both colors were only $35. Thanks so much for posting, i have a nine west outlet 2 miles away from my house! I already called and they have the blue version in my size!

I should be sending out my STDs in the next week or two and I have pretty much designed my boarding pass invitation and plan to send them out Sept/Oct, depending on when pricing comes out. I'm getting excited about dress shopping, should be going in the next couple of weeks. Also we got our wedding bands already but only b/c the Kays by me had their once a year big sale, we save saved over $600 on the normal sale price and $1200 of the retail price!

Congrats! you pics amazing! Can wait to hear a review of how everything went!

Wow beautiful!!!

WOW those are amazing pics!

that sucks, FI got a ticket last year for the same thing and tried to argue with the cop but didnt win either. BTW, how did he know you were on the phone if it was in your lap? I would of delete the call and said i was talking to my self or singing to the radio.

I think she was talking about the wedding package price, b/c i got the 2009 wedding package price for my wedding in 2010 because the 2010 rates were not out when I booked my date. I talked directly with with the WC about this.

I dont know if she still is. I think she has been really busy lately b/c she emailed me mine but forgot to attach the pictures. I have emailed her to let her know but have not heard back from her
