My advice would be to have two visions of what you want and only tell her about your second choices.

Thanks everyone, the good thing is the wedding wasn't until July 2010 and no one has began to actually book anything. Becks I love your little poem and am going to use it.

I guess you could send out a notice that your wedding plans have changed to a date/place to be determined. Blame it on the economy, resort, or travel agent. You could then announce that you decided to elope when you got back. Or something like that maybe?? Well yeah that's what I plan on doing but everytime I come up with something it just doesn't sound right. It breaks my heart to have to do this though.

Unfortunately, my dreams of a destination wedding with my family and friends just isn't feasible. I've already sent out invitations but now I need to let guests know that we aren't having a big wedding anymore and just going for "the two of us" approach... All suggestions are appreciated.

I love your dress! Beautiful pictures.

Thanks Lisa, once I finish the lemon (Master) cleanse I will start this program

Many say it should be done for 10 I believe because it takes a few days to even start the clensing process. It is crazy that stuff still comes out of you even after you have not eaten for 3 days. I felt unbeliveable during and after. Try and have someone do it with you because it makes it easier. Lots of info online but I have the book if anyone is intrested in it, I can mail it to you just PM me. I'm doing this right now and I LOVE IT!!!! I have so much energy and my clothes are getting looser and looser (is that a word lol) I'm currently on day 7 and have 3 days left to go. And I will most likely do it again in January/February after the holiday season.

Congrats Ladies!

I haven't found anything I like even remotely as much as I love this dress It's from Maggie's fall 2009 line, called "Caprice" and it is a take on the Reese dress. Caprice - by Maggie Sottero So now it's just a matter of choosing which place to order it from! That's my first choice in Maggie dresses. I haven't found a bridal salon that has it in my size to try on, but I love it and if in my travels I don't find another dress that "speaks to me" LOL Caprice will be the dress! It is stunning...I love how simple it looks from the front with all of the bling on the back...

is there such a thing as Bohemian Glam I hope so...because I'm very free spirited and earthy but I love shoes.. So I think my wedding theme will be Bohemian Glam What an oxymoron...LOL

Thanks I needed that. So far I've done my passport invites and unfortunately had some friends helping me to the cut them. I never knew that some people just can't cut a straight line to save their life. LOL Needlesstosay, the crooked cut invites went to my closest friends who didn't mind a little unevenness...

This is wonderful!!!! We may take advantage of this deal.

Yeah I think I may do something like that. I'm in the process of interviewing event planners so I'll see what they come up with as well.

I'm heading to Walmart today!!!! Thanks!

This is awesome!!! I will definitely be using this site. I may even have them make my Bride tanks for me...

LOVE IT!!! Thanks!

Name:Bobbett FI Name:Ricardo (Ricky) Wedding Destination: San Juan, PR What made you choose this destination? We are setting sail on a 7-day cruise from PR Wedding Date:July 18, 2010 What made you choose this date? This is our anniversary date. Have you decided on your wedding colors? If so, what are they? Purple and yellow with hints of green What is something unique about your wedding? I guess I would say the way in which we want it decorated. For the reception we want all the guest tables to be yellow and we are going to have a sweetheart table that will be completely purple. Tell us anything else about yourself and/or your wedding:I can't wait to marry the man of my dreams

If you're using a St. Thomas WC, they may be able to help you find a venue and caterer.

Thanks ladies I can't wait to see it and try it on!!!

If I were a guest I would definitely appreciate a goodie bag for the plane ride.

That's so nice...I'm glad you enjoyed it.
