Quote: Originally Posted by Danyelle Just curious if your destination wedding trip is also serving as your honeymoon. Will you stay longer at same hotel? Go to diff hotel on same island? Fly to new location all together? Take a cruise? etc etc.... I'd love to hear your plans. FI and I have not yet decided. We're doing a weddingmoon cruise I guess you could say. Our cruise is for 10 days, we get married on day 3 in St. Thomas and then we've got a week to enjoy the other ports and days at sea. We also plan on going on a great trip for our first anniversary.

Boarding the ship is a little hectic- waiting for luggage, trying to find your way around, etc. I would suggest bringing them to dinner on the first night.

Love love love this! I'm now trying to make my own.

Hey Becki I am a cruise bride as well. As soon as I chose our cruise and made a group booking to reserve some cabins for our guests, I sent an e-mail out to everyone with all of the details. I didn't do a STD as I didn't feel the need. Most of our gusts booked within the a month of us having reserved the space on the ship. Our wedding is Jan 12th, 2010 and I intend on mailing out our invites in Aug/Sept of this year. I think normal for a wedding, you would mail them out 3 months in advance (from what I understand), but given the cruise requires a lot more money and advanced planning on behalf of the guests, we opted for 5-6 months. I hope this helps!

I love them too and have been looking for something simliar for my MOH. I'm trying to get away from strapless.

I am also a cruise bride (sailing with Princess). We'll be doing the full ceremony, cake, champagne, and appetizers while in port and then we're making reservations in one of the private restaurants on the ship for our reception dinner. I expect we'll hit up one of the bars on the s hip to do some dancing afterwars.

I'm a big advocate for drysol as well0 it works wonders for constant sweaters like me. When I first started using it, I had to put it on maybe 2-3 times a week at night. Now I sweat so little (because of the drysol) that I find I only need to put it on once every 3 weeks or so. DO be careful about not putting it on right after shaving because it will irritate your skin. The first couple times you use it, you might find your armpits get very itchy. That only lasted for an hour or so after I put it on the first couple times. Now I can't live without this stuff!

I got several good ones here on the board (reclining on the beach, the Corona shots, etc.). Also, our ship (the Glory) cleaned my dress when we got back and it was completely unharmed from our time in the water. Welcome to all the new ST brides. For some reason I hadn't been getting notifications of new messages for this thread, and I see we have lots of new brides. Best wishes to you all! Deb and Tom Wedding Photos Are you able to share how long your session was? I believe our coordinator is working with Blue Glass and I'd like to know whether or not we should book extra time with the photographer as we currently only have an hour.

The pictures are incredible- what a great looking family! I'm curious to know how long it took to shoot that many photos? It would be helpful to know as I'm debating on whether or not to extend our photography session by an hour to allow us 2 full hours with our photographer.

Angruck- closer to the date I will give you my gfs address and same thing, you can just send it to her as soon as you get home Sounds great! Closer to the time, I will send you my address. Looking forward to participating in this tradition with all of you ladies- very exciting!

Quote: Originally Posted by cdnvb9 hahah its ok I leave on the 24th, not the 25th (forgot our flights just recently were changed). So I would need it by the 23rd. And then I get back on Jan 8th. I could always send it home with my mom or sister on the 1st though and they could mail it for me. I didn't read your message properly....totally skipped over the part about having someone else (your mom or sister) ship it after their return on the 1st. That might just work!

I leave on Jan 8th so that timing doesn't work out for me Is there another one passing around or is it only the one?

Wow- a graphic designer as a FH- that's a DIY dream! P.S. I too am a Whitby girl originally.

Thanks so much! I'm having a hard time with the search function....won't work for me for some reason. Appreciate you forwarding the link.

I love #1 it's super cute. #2 would be a great TTD as others have suggested.

Hi Ladies! We're in the process of looking to book flights to Ft. Lauderdale where we'll be embarking on the cruise ship for our wedding. The biggest concern that I have is whether or not I will be able to carry my dress on board with me. My question is...What airline are you flying with- and do they allow you to bring your gown as carry-on?

Very handy- thanks!

That is absolutely gorgeous!

I don't believe you're able to reserve the whole restaurant (I'm not even sure how many people they can accommodate). We've reserved space for 25 people. at the Crown Grill (the steak & seafood place). There is also Sabatini's which is the Italian one. I believe the cover charge is $25 per head.

We decided to go with Pool/Turquoise and Champage...we were trying to go with a sea & sand theme.

Hi Crystal, If you head to Michaels, there should be a few options there. You bought a special punch for photo matting (the corners of your photos are supposed to fit in those "silly lines). What I think you're looking for is a simple round corner punch. Ask one of the associates at Michael's to give you a hand- they should know exactly what you're talking about. Best of luck to you!

I would love to participate in the borrowing & passing of this starfish. My wedding is in January 2010. Does anyone have a bouquet starfish I could borrow? Looking forward to hearing from you! Kerri

What a great idea Denise! I think they're really cute, and your guests will appreciate where they came from.

So far, my OOT Bags will contain the following: Beach Bag Beach Towels Personalized Travel Tumblers Flip Flop Playing Cards Hand Sanitizer Flip Flop Luggage Tags Starfish Wine Stopper Card Holders with Lanyards Disposable Cameras I'm also considering adding: Sunscreen Lip Balm Puzzle Books Bottle of Wine
