I've never even posted in here! I think it's time we all do updates. I'm September 19, 2009 in Las Vegas. My ceremony will be at the Flamingo with a reception at rumjungle in Mandalay Bay. We are then doing an after party at the Panorama Suite at Planet Hollywood. I'm down to 99 days and I have sooo much left to do!

My FI is totally trying his best to convince me we should have a kid now, but I take my pills every morning faithfully! LOL

You look great JahBride! I've decided I wanted to do a hair flower or something up there but I still dont have it pinned down yet. You're rockin your though!

I like #1 the best. Maybe it's just your posture in #3 but it doesn't seem as flattering.

I have been such a slacker since I posted this but since my wedding is not almost 3 months away (eek!) I am getting back on my routine. I start my alterations next week but they have a lot to take in because I got the dress big since I got it from ROTB. Hopefully once I got back for my second fitting I'll be all toned and there will be no back/arm flab!

When I want to be really dry and need a clear deo too, I use Mitchum Clear Gel. It works well! On a normal day I go with Degree.

My FI knows but since he literally weights twice as much as me (he's also a foot taller) it doesn't really matter. I'm a "skinny fat girl" as I've said in my 30 day shread thread so he think I'm crazy anytime I mention anything about working out. Plus, he obssessed with me having more booty! LOL

I'm on Rue La La too! They always seem to have things I want on days when I can't be on the computer at 11am so they usually end up sold out. Anyone on Gilt Group too? It's the same idea, limited boutique sales for 2 days, etc.

I saw those bags at the "Deals" store! If I were doing a beach wedding I would've totally got them. Everything looks great together!

I have almost everything booked. We are having an afternoon ceremony at Caesars in the Venus gardens, then going for photos along the strip, then our reception is at Maggianos in Fashion Show Mall. So far we have 56 people going down to Vegas with us. We are waiting to hear from 2 more people. I have my dress going in for alterations in two weeks and I just need to send pics to our wedding coordinator so she can get a bouquet made for me. I got my bridesmaids fake bouquets because Caesars was way too pricey for what I wanted. There is less then 3 months till our wedding and I am beyond excited!!! I can't wait to get back to Vegas again!! Hope the planning is going really well for everyone else!!! What's your date? It seems like we are pretty close together! I start alterations next week! I also got fake bouquets for my BMs since the Flamingo wanted 19.50 for one rose. I was like "Are you kidding?"

That's a good place to find them as well but they don't include the special email offers the hotels send out. I'm on almost everyone's list though so I'll be sure to post them.

I got this idea from Fat Wallet, but Las Vegas hotels are great for giving out promo codes that are often better than what you can get by blocking rooms for your guests so I though I would start a thread where we can post all the hotel deals we find. I've been searching like crazy anyway looking for things for my guests so I might as well share with you all. To make it easy, all posts should be in the following format: 1. Hotel 2. Promotion Name if applicable 3. Promotion Code if applicable 4. Dates Valid 5. Date that it Expires 6. For Player's Card Members only or for all? 7. Link to the promotion 8. Promotion Details (giveaways, discounts, prices etc) Perhaps we can limit specific questions to PMs as not to clutter up the thread and general questions that can help everyone can be posted. MODS: Maybe this can even be a sticky? I'll start us off!

Since you're still not sick, this is hilarious. It appears that swine flu makes normal, healthy people not sicker than regular flu so even it you do manage to contract it, you will probably be fine. You'll have a shitty couple of days, or even weeks, but at least it should be all cleared up come wedding time.

Let me know if you'll like additional info and I'll send you both of their numbers. Thank you so much! I PMed you. Thanks!

I am trying this on my bags this weekend. Wish me luck!

I just bought 2 suits for $35 with tax and shipping included! I hope they fit. I wear a large top and a XS or small bottom so it's really a guessing game!

Welcome! Congrats on choosing Vegas! I'd say go with the fall instead of summer. Even if you like the heat (I love it!) you will hear some whining from guests as it will be 105+ everyday.

I've also decided to go with a flower in my hair. Yours came out good & good job on the DIY! I think I'm even more impressed that you managed to take a pic of it yourself! LOL
