BUT, being very limited in what i could do, although I too would MUCH rather go ziplining or do something adventurous, at this stage in the pregnancy I'd take a massage. And then if I had something to do instead of just sitting by myself... maybe I'd be okay? I definitely agree... When I was prego it wasn't that I told my FI not to but he new I would want to go and be sad about it so he would do things like that to be nice... I know it dosn't seem like the fairest thing in the world but these are the things that happen when your pregnant. At 7 months my FI would not have let me out of his site. That Nervous Nancy, my FI is when it comes to me

I just got a dress on ebay for $75, making me another 3 DRESS BRIDE (I also have a regular gown for the ceremony, and a shorter dress for the reception)! I thought it was worth it to avoid any drama over trashing my real dress! Good luck! HAHAHA! Well since I am a member of the 4 dress (and a reception dress) club my self thats not really an option I kinda already went that rout and now am trying to sell 3 so I don't totally ruin our wedding budget! Also my FI said if I bought one more we weren't going to have a wedding (in a J/K manner of course) I could probably squeeze 1 more in but who wants to push it <- that is what I need apparently! But Yes I agree thats a very good Idea

Thanks so much

Can you tell us how we would know its a work shop photo since many of us don't get to meet with our photographers before we book them?

I definitely am planing on getting some sort of gift basket for my ta's they have done such an amazing job for us. I think its super nice to think of those behind the scenes!

#1 is sooo cute...Definitely 1

So now dose anyone know the answers to these questions?

I forgot it was on tonight thank you!!! Ill have to check back on friday though I can't watch t tonight and don't want to spoil it!!!

Anyone know about how satin holds up in the water?

If you figure anything out that helps, please let me know. well let us know if you find anything that works too! It sucks not being in control of your body!

Its my birthday on Saturday so I hope that doesnt through me off to bad. Ahhh me too My doctor said I had thyroiditis a month ago and its supposed to make you loose weight NOT THE CASE!

Hi y'all I was just thinking about starting one of these I have looking but its never popped up. I'm so glad I found it. I think I have done just about everything I can do at this point lets see 1. Hired TA/Wedding planner-A ticket to paridise 2. Booked resort- Dreams Tulum 3. changed mind 4. book different resort -Blue Tulum 5. got website from WP-momentville 6. send out email save the dates-WP did it for us yea! 7. Made and sent out invites 2 weeks ago 8. booked florist- euphoria y florist 9. book Dj- Dj Doremixx 10. booked photographer-Cancun photography 11. Bought 3 wedding dress 12. 2 pairs of shoes 13. bridesmaids dresses/shoes/ jewelry 14. picked out groomsmen clothing/FI 15. place cards 16. planed site visit (eeehh we go it 3 weeks) 17. bought plane tickets 18. flower girls dress 20. Hopefully booked bd session if we get enough people! 21. got FI's ring 22.....is there anything eles? haha As you can see I have way to much time on my hands...(my FI and I decided last summer that I should stay home with my 6 year old daughter so I have more than enough time to get this all done

Hi Hun I really hope that reading all these post makes you feel better!Its such an awful situation. But remember nothing is ever final (except death and taxes ) I hope I don't get jumped on but my very rational father has rubbed off on me over the years....Just to play devils advocate.....Is it possible that there was a situation where he was inviting you just out of habit or to be kind where wives or fI may not really be invited and its just protocol? Have his work friends become closer to work friend where it may be his "statuary" and you caught him off-guard by saying yes? Now that said I do not think his reaction was correct or that uninviting you , saying he was embarrassed or asking fr the ring back was the right thing to do in anyway... it sounds like it may have gotten very heated...My suggestion would be to set up some time to talk outside of your normal hangouts with out the kids....Try to really listen to where this all came from digest it and then after seeing through his eyes the situation tell him how it made you feel and that his comments hurt you...take some time to digest all this information so both of you can make an informed decision on how to proceed with your relationship Take some deep breaths and just keep telling yourself..."you can do this!!!"

Alyssa I'm with you I'm up .4 but im waiting till after my work out to weigh in (cross fingers here)

I think it depends on what type of AHR you want to have...we rented out a room at one of our favorite places and then we will have an open bar and hor'derves for 3 hours but the place will be open for people to stick around as long as they want. If you are doing a sit down dinner and dancing you probably want 5 if you are just doig cake 2 would be perfectly acceptable What kind of AHR are you planning?

Wow you look beautiful Miranda.... I can't wait to get mine done now!

We got a deal on ours for 180.00 a night for the 2 of use and all the money goes twords our wedding package price! So its basicly free! I don't know if RIU will do it but its worth asking
