THanks ladies! This is awesome info!!

Love them! Great job!!!

Beautiful!!! I love the one in the chair. I'm still working on getting up the nerve to do this, but I have a friend who's interested in doing a shoot for her husband too so I'm thinking if we go together and have our shoots back to back maybe it won't seem so intimidating.

I told my girlfriends to skip the shower and focus their attention on the bachelorette party. I don't like being the center of attention either and didn't want my friends going to all the extra expense. We did register only because people kept asking about it for our AHR (we're eloping and having a very traditional AHR when we get home). I love the cookbook idea though - very fun!

Ooooo ... Napa! That will be be awesome. Congratulations and welcome to the forum!

Love the one of you two jumping into the pool!! So cute!

I like Addictive Accessories too, but here are a few more ... Femme Frills Trendy Trimmings Friends & Frosting (I totally stole the frosting from that Kate Hudson movie How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days)

Very pretty - thanks for sharing!

Kate&Devon - this is so off the topic, but I love your monogram! Very fun and contemporary!

That's very sweet of you to help your sister. Definitely check out the various destination sub-forums. You'll find tons of info on the different resorts in each location. Good luck!

Congratulations!! Can't help you much with the location, but check out the Jamaica forum ... I'm sure you'll find some good info there!

Looks terrific!! I'm sure your wedding was amazing!

Absolutely stunning!!!! Congrats!

Great idea Rosa!! I'm sure your mom will love that. I'll think on it and see if I can find you some fun ideas.

Well, it's a gorgeous ring! Very unique. Simon G is a wonderful jewelry designer and generally well-known and loved by women everywhere. As to whether or not she'll like it ... I'm sure she'll love it because you picked it out with her in mind. Let us know when you propose!!

Good luck and congratulations!!

Got 'em crossed! Good luck!

I'd say go for it - it's cute and adds a little humor to the day!

Congrats and welcome to the forum!! Put your zip code in the form on this page Find A Retailer Near You: The Dessy Group to find a store that carries Dessy dresses in your area so you can try one on. Good luck!!

My vote is for dress #2 ... it's beautiful and defninitely WOW! I love the tule showing on the side too. ;-)

Very impressive! Great job!!

I'm so sorry you're feeling like this. I went through something very similar 5 or so years ago. I did finally go to the doctor after much too long in hindsight. She asked all the pertinent questions to rule out medication side affects, pregnancy, etc., and put me on a mild anti-depressant for 3 months. I did make a few other changes while I was on them (new job which was my major source of stress and anxiety), but I don't think I would have even had the drive to do that had it not been for the improvement in my overall mental state as a result of the medicine. After 3 months I didn't have to take them any more, and just made sure I maintained some constant, healthy outlets for stress and have been great ever since. Just be reassured, you're not alone and you can feel happy again - promise.

Thanks Michelle! We didn't book through a TA since it's just the two of us, but I'll check out Debbie's site for sure. I appreciate the help!

I think the officiants have to be booked by the resort if you're having your wedding there, but I don't see why you can't book your wedding with the wedding coordinator prior to having guests committed. We're eloping so it's a bit different, but I still made sure they had my date available and could get an officiant that day before we booked our stay at the resort and pretty much did those two things simultaneously. Does your resort have a guest minimum in order to have a wedding there or something?

Congratulations! Looks like it turned out beautifully!
