I'm thinking about going maybe like 12-1ish .. I want to go once the crowds have subsided ...

I went to The Bridal Boutique in Columbia today .. I have been meaning to get out there but have always ended up going somewhere else .. I walked in w/o an appt and was able to try on gowns and found the one I want ........I liked how they had the dresses grouped by the style (mermaid, etc ..) ..I knew where to start and didnt have to wrestle through those heavy dresses .. they dont have a large warehouse selection ..maybe 10-12 gowns in each style .. we were actually sharing a couple of the dresses but it was cool..it was nice to see how the dress looked on somebody else .. they do have a large selection of BM Overall, I was impressed .. the prices were reasonable ..alot of $699-1000... some $1100 + but they were really nice .. They had a Maggie Sottero gown for $718 It was soooooooo pretty in the diamond white ..and it was hard for me to choose over Maggie lol but I left it for somebody else.. also they have 10% off orderable dresses and 20% off in-stock dresses ..worth a ride

I am currently walking/jogging mile/mile half ...at least 2x times a week .........and I'm going to try to do this on demand work out I found at least once a week .. the last time I did my legs were out of order for 2 days .... if I can cut out the cravings for cookies, milkshakes, and cakes I will be straight!!

I ran across this on my FIOS tv ..On Demand ...and I have been sharing with everyone since ... Its a 50 minute workout with warm-up and cool down ..which attacks all those trouble zones ... Abs, arms, Butt, thighs ........ she uses weights with it .. but even without them.. I could feel the impact on my gut and thighs .. my thighs were literally sore for 2 days lol This is a good workout for anyone trying to tighten things up ... *cough* me ..especially try to shed these last few lbs/inches of 2yr old baby weight lol Here is the workout program courtesy of Amazon Warmup: Basic marching in place, jumping rope (no rope needed), arm circles, skaters (simulate speed skating) and jumping jacks.

I love those table number holders ..where did you find them?

I love how everything turned out ... did the LED lights give you enough light in the paper lanterns?

Great review!! Cant wait to see your pics!! I'm anxious to see Floral Fantasies work

The price is definitely different between Negril and ROR ... When I initially looked it was ~$1500 for hotel alone .....I've been to both and think I may have actually loved the RTB more ... it's a palace so its a tier above the Clubhotels and basically it had the same amenities, minus the disco .. the beaches were amazing also ... the ROR food when I went stands out to me more .. RTB was good but alot of their paella had octopus or something in it lol .. I chose the ROR moreso for the cost to my guests .....

Congrats! Welcome Back!

Is anyone going to the Running of the Brides, July 31 @ Filenes Basement in Mazza Gallerie? I'm thinking about going just not sure if I will be there when it opens or later in the day once the crowds have subsided.

I did get in touch with her!! She was on travel .. If I can just get my BM dresses out the way .......that would be a big sigh of relief

What do you have left to do ...what have you done?? Lets get this forum active!!

Thanks Ladies!!

Were her prices reasonable for a DW?

Thats great!!

Loved your timeline .. I wanted to do the same thing ..glad to see it written out

Sorry about the typos my blackberry storm sux

I am soooo frustrated .. Destination weddings are supposed to be easy right? So I had finally found BM dresses .. This was a 2nd attempt ..initially I was set on Aria but in person they were not as figure flattering ..which was kinda good because I thought they were alittle to formal ...I was alil disappointed because I had tp back to drawing board..I stumbled across some JCrew dresses from someone wedding review ..that particular dress was discontinued but I saw some suitable options ..to make a long story short..one of the reps told me the color would be around through the end of summer..Welp today they are sold out and discontinued ..now I'm back ay point A. Having to find some dresses before the stores are bombarded witt fall ..its like you have to buy a dress a year in advance ..this isn't a juicy vent but I was really looking forward to crossing that off my list.
