They are fabulaous!! And don't worry about the FI, do what i do- when he asks how much they were, just say " they were on sale" nothing more, nothing less - works every time

CONGRATULATIONS AND WELCOME TO THE FORUM!! Happy planning!!

I think it's great! My uncle started it for my sister's wedding (he gave her a few hundres bucks!) but then he got everyone in the place to dance with her and she made a sh*% load of cash too! It's alot of fun and great for pictures cause she got to dance with everyone! Why not?!

We getting married in May and having our AHR in July- mainly because i am going to need more time to save of money to pay for it! Do whatever you want to do! that's what i say!

I am having the same problem- I really really want at least of couple shots fo us at least splashing a little bit in the water ( i mean why the hell not right?) but I actually AM wearing my dress again at our AHR a couple months after we get back. Will the salt water really ruin the dress? probably not right? Man- so many decisions!!!

OMG- Congratulations! Have fun and good luck!!

LOL- i was the same as you- i hate decisions ans once i started looking into it there were just too many to choose from! I opted for the non poofy dress- i tried on some of the more formal gowns in the store and started sweating my ass off! no way! LOL Get the dress you fall in love with- dont' worry it's out there! here's a pic of mine it's from David's Bridal - i love it! I go for my second fitting next week!!! OK i don't know how to attached the pic so here is the link: David's Bridal - Floral print satin/chiffon burnout halter gown with beaded empire band. good luck!

Welcome Mrs.Eddy!!! I'm new too and we're getting married at Dreams Cancun in May '09 (3 months!!!!) This site is so awesome- there is so much information here- you're gonna love it. Good luck with the planning! Kristen

OMG those glasses are awesome- I am totally doing that!! I am not a crafty person at all- but i told my sister (MOH) about all of the cool ideas i've gotten from this site and she was so excited! Now we'll have one more project to add to our list! Thanks!

We're doing the legal cermony before we go. I will do all the name change stuff once we get back (i have enough to worry about planning a destination wedding!)

I got bags for 99 cents @ cheaptotes.com chech it out. I don't have money to be getting nice bags for everyone- this will do

I just ordered my bags! Now the hard part is creating a logo to iron on them! I got the nuetral color because they say the iron-on doesn't really work well with darker colors. I hope i can manage to make mine come out as nice as yours! wish me luck!

Great Idea!!! I want those!!! Where did you get them from??

I like the second one also Good luck!

Michelle- Welcome and congratulations!! I'm getting married at Dreams Cancun in May (so i dont' really have any answers for you) but one thing i've learned in planning all of this is don't be nervous! I'm sure there are going to be minor glitches and little problems and things you can't control so why stress! just go with the flow and enjoy! good luck with all of your planning!

Dreams has a nice package. I was originally looking into Dreams DR, but decided on Dreams in Cancun instead. Good luck and congratulations!

Welcome and congratulations!! I'm getting married at Dreams in Cancun on May 6th (96 days left!!) and i have been working with Gaby. She isn't the greatest at getting emails back in a timely manner (which really frustrated me at first- but i am used to it now). Many brides here have said not to worry about it and that once you get down there she will go over everything and you can make any changes or additions you want (so i am counting on this to be very easy!) Happy planning! Try to stay stress free and positive and i will be sure to give you my review and pics after our wedding!

Have fun- good luck with everything- and dont' worry. Just be happy!! can't wait to see pics whwn you come back a mrs.!!

Sun's ou for revenge now- buuut i have a theory that Jin isn't really dead! mark my words- i bet he was able to jusp off the boat. i guess we'll see! This season have been effin awesome so far!!!

I feel the same way- My Fiance's sisterscan't even come, I was really upset about that (but he's fine with it). He's says it's all about us- and he's absolutely right! We originally weren't going to invite anyone! But i firgured my parents may be upset and i want them there, so we only have about 12 people going. We're going to have a party when we get back for all the family and friends who couldn't make it. So i've stopped worrying about it!!

If you go to expedia you cn see all the excursions and prices- but you have to go all the way to the end (as if you arebooking the trip) but you can just get out of it at the end. People say the prices are cheaper through a TA or the websites vs. paying for them at the resort. I for one don't want to book anything until i am there (because of the weather) so we're going to play it by ear.

Awesome! Thank for posting this- i thought i had everything under control but there are so many things i never thought of!!!

Mrs. N- Thanks! i think you're absolutely right about the chocolate- my mom is actually wearing latte- so it would be perfect! (actually Tommy Bahama has a brown shirt with these turquoise flowers that would be awesome!!) thanks!!!
