Hi Girls Update: I spoke with Macy's they took the description and will search for a face shot of him in the cameras. They are also going to forward the picture to mall security to look out for him. I'm glad I called maybe this will stop him from harassing anyone else. Just a little note: I'm a pretty tough chick, but when he drove over in his car it threw in a whole different element. I mean how do you defend yourself against a car? I am now going to get pepper spray or something that I can shoot out. Thanks for all the helpful advice. Please pass my story on to all your friends and family, I want women to be prepared and not be put in a situation like this!

Okay girls I am going to throw my comedy aspects into the story but realize this did turn into something very serious very quickly so learn from my mistakes. Next week I am having my engagement party so today I did a trial run with my hair which came out great! I put on a trendy outfit to match the hair so I could be one of "those" people who dress up for the mall. So I headed to the mall with my big hair to shop for an engagement dress. After scoring "THE PERFECT DRESS" I was walking through Macy's to head home. I noticed a young guy checking me out, naturally I assumed my trial run with my hair must have been a success made a mental note to high five myself and kept heading to the door. I felt the guy waking close behind me. When I exited to the parking lot he followed me out. I thought I did the right thing I stopped completely and let him pass me, he asked me if I was mad I told him I am trying to go home coldly. He headed in the opposite direction and I headed towards my truck. I honestly thought "wow I showed him I'm not an easy target." Because I have the biggest truck ever I parked far in a secluded area so I wouldn't have any trouble pulling out of a spot. The guy must have saw how far I had parked so he jumped in his car and drove over to me as I was still walking. Okay two things went through my head, First, I thought he might try to snatch my bags and I would not hand over by JS Boutique engagement dress I just scored on sale, Second I'm wearing my Steve Madden strappy wedges that I could not run in or even kick off to run in, and I was already far from the mall. I looked around and of course there are cars in the parking lot but no one is around. My truck was way closer than the mall so I figured I was close enough I could just walk past him and get into the truck. I mean if I ran I would trip and fall in my wedges and he might take my engagement dress. When I walked past him he started spewing the hey pretty lady why were you shopping? As I walked past him I figured I should still show no fear and I shouted angrily over my shoulder that I was shopping for my engagement dress. He started yelling more lines but I was focused on getting to my truck. I never thought he would do what he did next. He turned his car around and pulled next to my truck trying to block me from getting into the truck. Holy crap now I'm scared a thousand thing run through my head but I knew he was still in his car and I HAD SECONDS to do something. Okay I thought get in the truck with the dress while he is still in the car. I managed to jump into the truck throw the dress on the passenger side and started the engine. He was halfway out when he realized I had gotten in my truck so he got back into his car and threw it in reverse. I think he was reversing to swing behind me and block me in the space. What he doesn't realize is that he is attempting to block a 3/4ton diseal Dodge truck with a really really pissed off bride who thought she was going to lose the perfect engagement dress. I floored it in reverse and funny how stupid things creep in your mind like "My finance is going to kill me." Once he realized I planned on running over his Acura, no wait, I actually planned on driving up and over his Acura, he hauled ass out of there. I stomped on the brakes and threw the car into drive, now I planned on finding that bastard and was going to throw my own version of pick up lines as I rammed his car. You know, I never knew an Acura can accelerate so fast or take turns on three wheels. Much to my dismay I never caught up to him. Even more shocking was my fiance was supportive about using the truck as a weapon. Although I didn't mention the part where I was going to up the ante and use it as a battering ram. He said that this is what insurance is over, I also didn't mention how the dress was essential to my escape. I learned some valuable lessons today. 1. Never park far when you are alone no matter if it takes you 20 tries to pull out of tight spots or all the dirty looks you get as cars line up waiting for you. 2. Always assume they can drive over to you even if they have walked out of view and you have established that cheesy pickup lines will not work on you. 3. Never underestimate a drastic move. I never thought he would try to keep me from getting in my truck and he never thought I would go on the attack with my truck. 4. Your vehicle is a weapon use it, I'm not sure if police will be ok with you switching roles and turning into the attacker and using your vehicle as a battering ram. 5. As innocent as pick up lines are never assume it will not turn into a more serious situation.Terrific hair or not, if you are being followed no matter how innocent or cheesy it seems, wait inside and get security to walk you out. Don't think your tough and no one would dare pull this on you, I mean the guy drove his car over! I will post engagement party pics after the party so you will all see the dress I was willing to sacrifice everything for. Once you see it on me I am sure you will agree with me that it was well worth it Thanks for letting me vent!

Thanks girls I feel so good!!! I didn't think I could do it but I did and I'm still going to keep going!!!

I have Laura Mercier primer and it works great but it makes me break out. I can't use it everyday rather only for special occasions but I do love it. Which is weird because the counter swore I would never break out but maybe my skin is super sensitive. Check out my engagement pics I was wearing all Laura Mercier products that day and it gave me a smooth finish. I do want to try Smash Box and see if I break out with it.

I am so excited I got on the scale today and just hit 20lbs of weight loss!!!! I still have more to go but it's finally coming off! I went on a Macrobiotic diet which is almost Vegan and no processed food and it is working so well for me. I did add egg whites into the diet to give me the protein and energy I needed. Hopefully my weight loss roll will keep going by the time I go dress shopping!!!!

GORGEOUS!!! Beautiful bouquet and lei I loved the vibrant colors. Congratulations!!

Great thread!!! I am torn as well. I think after we are announced I want "I can see clearly now" by bob marley, and for the bridal party to walk down the isle I was thinking somewhere over the rainbow the Hawaiian version, and for me to walk down who knows? For our first dance I wanted to do some sort of mix a slow song then shock everybody as we bust out a disco number!!! We will see I''m a trained dancer and my poor fiance can't clap to a beat so we will try to pull it off!

May 17th!!! RUI Tropical Palace, I feel like it is coming soooo fast!!!

Post some pics!!! Congratulations thank you for sharing!

Congratulations!! You looked so happy I am so excited for you!!!! Can't wait to see more pics!

Every time FI and I want to celebrate and be loud and drunk we pick locations that are full of drunks and loud. If I as an adult think ahead and pick locations that accommodate us then families should as well. How many times has one of your friends became the drunk obnoxious one and you took them home because it was starting to cause a scene? (I do understand that babies aren't drunk but you get my drift) It is the same situation. I agree that posting a sign saying no infants/drunk people is too excessive but geez have some courtesy for fellow patrons.

I liked two the best, it was simple and focused your eye to the wave and that was cool.

Congratulations I love the last picture with your dressing clinging to you!! Too hot!

Great pics! I love the vibrant blue of the sky. Congratulations!!!

Great post! I love your dress where did you get it? A great deal too on flowers everything looked amazing. Congratulations!!!

I suffered with the same thing and it took forever to diagnose. I took the pills but I really researched it and conquered it naturally. I changed my diet (surf the web there is a ton of websites that will tell you how to diet, basically no alcohol, no spicy, no acidic -sucks but hey you get skinny), I also took Quercetin research it and see how it works for you. By doing so I completely recovered. It's funny but my doctor told me there was NO natural remedies and that I would suffer for life with out the medications. She said if the supplement really worked than everyone would be taking it. Well time did tell and I completely recovered but I was strict on my diet no cheating and tried to be more stress free. Maybe it was because I was paying $250 for the medication that really motivated me (I had horrible insurance than) but either way I did it. PM me if you want more details and I feel for you no one understands the pain unless they have gone through it. Stay strong and research!

Wow MIL has alot of nerve...I want to tell her a thing or two so I can't imagine how you are able to keep it together. Sounds like MIL and others on his side are spoiled and use to you guys be the accommodating ones. How horrible that now a days being a kind hearted person gets you crapped on. Well it sounds like your doing the right thing putting your foot down keep it up!

How romantic! Congratulations and thanks for sharing.

I am so happy for you! You looked so beautiful and happy. I loved your beach reception and they didn't charge you extra for the decorations? That is wonderful! I was concerned about being barefoot on the sand, is it bearable? Congratulations again!!!!!

Oh I love it!!!! Woot woot can't wait for the pictures!!
