Mel&B

I got my dress from Saks in July. I'm just hoping the alterations person stays on for my fittings. Are just the samples on sale, or are all dresses they carry on sale?

Your board are beautiful.

Those people are just simply disgusting.

Jess- was it Channel 93.3? I miss that station!!! I'm a girly girl and I have nothing whatsoever again plastic surgery, but Heidi was soooo much prettier a couple of years ago. She was gorgeous! Now she looks like a charicature of herself. yuck!

You look beautiful. You should be so proud of yourself for losing 40 pounds. Congratulations!!!

You invites are very elegant! Congrats.

It looks beautiful and relaxing. I've been to Sayulita, but we didn't make it to San Pancho. I'd love to hear about it when you return.

Oh wow! You look gorgeous!!!! I love the dress. The shoes compliment it perfetly. Stunning.

Your shoes are very cute Casey! Have you posted your dress?

Thanks everyone!!!

There is thread about this on the forum... Have you done a seach?

I'm getting married at Playa Fiesta, and it's not the cheapest place per person, but I think it will be more than worth it. I thinks about $900 per person and it's nearly all-inclusive (breakfast, a few dinners, and all-inclusive for drink). My question for you: Where do your guests stay for $1,400 for two weeks

I think it looks great the way it is! I don't think anyone will notice the corners. Honestly, it looks awesome!

I highly recommend Andrea and Gabby from Sayulita Dream Weddings. Sayulita Dream Weddings If I was having my wedding in Sayulita, I would have chosen them. Email Andrea and she will send you links to photos of wedding they have coordinated. She is very sweet and helpful, and I would entrust my wedding planning to her any day. I met with Andrea in Sayulita in May. They are a married couple, and they are both from the states, but they live full time in Sayulita. This means that they are easy to communicate with, but they also bring a lot of authentic Mexican style (if that is what you want) to your wedding. Good Luck! Let me know if you have any more questions.

Happy Birthday, Casey!!!!

This is an awesome list!

She's adorable!!! I bet you're having a blast with her.

Thanks so much for posting the flower tutorial! I would've never thought to make my own. I can't wait to go to Michael's and get started.

I'm sending my invites out right after the first of the year with a RSVP date of 2/15.

They look great, Andrea. I love that your guests will be able to use them more than once, since each tag is personally meaningful to them. Fantastic job!

My vote is for #6. I thinks it blends the white of your dress with a hint of color. I think they are beautiful.

That is so sad. My sister's boyfriend's friend just died on the OR coast in a similar fashion. He was with a girl and she was rescued, but he was not. He was in his early 20's. It's so tragic.

Better than I expected!!!!! Thanks! We've seen the pics, and it looks beautiful! I don't care if the rocks come back by May (my wedding date), but I have to admit the sand would look really pretty in the wedding pictures.

Hi Mara, Welcome! Do a search on Sayulita. I know there has been a lot of info posted on it. If you have any specific questions, let me know. I went there in May.
