After emailing her again, Valeria finally responded to my email today. I guess she has been pretty busy!

Is anyone having trouble getting in contact with Valeria? She is my wedding coordinator and up 'til now has been very good at responding to my emails. I am wanting to start planning the reception and I haven't received a response to my email(s) in a week now. OR, am I just being paranoid and need to be more patient?

I have gone through countless pairs, due to him washing them. But the kicker is when he is folding the clothes, he is unsure how to fold a thong, so he ties them into little knots to get them to stay put. WTF?... I love him though. lol Hahaha! That is hilarious! I wonder what kind of look is on his face while he's tying them into knots? I'm sure he thinks he's thought of a great new invention in thong folding!

We just ordered fi's suit at the end of last week and they just sent an email saying that the suit is in production! We ordered the $99 english beige linen, I'll post pics when we get it!

Congrats! I am getting married at the El Dorada Royale also in August 2010! I have gotten sooo many great ideas and advice from this forum, you will love it!!

LOL These are Hilarious! I'm glad to know I'm not the only one suffering with my FI's annoying habits, because he does a lot of these that you guys mentioned! The most annoying one right now is that anytime he's doing anything around the house, he starts whistling "Dixie", and he whistles SOOO loud and it's obnoxiously annoying. He even does it when he's on the phone with me, and it pierces my ear!! I mean, Hello? It feels like you're blowing a whistle in my ear! ouch!

Thanks! I thought the same thing, I mean, it's not like I'm springing this on people just a few months before! We've been talking about this for over a year now, that seems like plenty of time to prepare for this if you want to go, but who knows. I just want to scream, "Be happy for us! This is OUR wedding, not yours!!" This seems to be the most stressful part of the planning so far. I did delete the post, but I saved it in a word document on my computer just in case I needed to reference it later if they ever say anything else to me. lol. I'm sorry about your FI's mother making that comment. Geez, what is up with people??

Oh my gosh, I can't believe the nerve of some people!! I spent countless hours on designing and assembling our Boarding Pass Save the Dates and I was so proud of myself when I finished. Well, I just sent them out, and now I am being attacked from all angles about the price, it being out of the country, etc. The funny thing is, everyone on my side has been pretty excited, and the ones that can't come have been very courteous about it, but my FI's side (friends AND family) have started coming out of the woodwork with complaints! It seems like they love to have any excuse to tell you why they CAN'T come, and I woke up today to find THIS written on our wedding website: "Jonathan and Allison, Jay and I would love to be at your wedding but since we are not among the "Rich and Famous" Ha Ha! we will not be able to afford to attend. You have chosen a beautiful place to have your wedding and know it will be a wonderful memory for the two of you. Jay and I are just so happy to be able to go to Panama City once a year. Just know that we will be thinking about you that day. Again I want to say how much fun we had at your parents and meeting all your family and friends and Allison's parents. That was a great day. Wish ya'll were just getting married there at that beautiful spot in the woods so we could witness the wedding. We love you, Prissy & Jay P.S. Thank you for the Boarding Pass Seat A-do you need it back?" Are You Kidding ME!!!!! I am going to lose my mind having to deal with these people!! Of course when I read it to my FI he laughed so hard, but he couldn't believe anyone would actually write something SO completely tacky on our Wedding Website (which, by the way, I spent so much time and effort on and explained that we understood if people couldn't make it and will be having an AHR at home). I am literally at my wits end here! It is very comforting to know that I am not going through this alone!

I'm so excited I just ordered my gown! It's a Pronovias gown, all lace. Can't wait for it to get here! I hope this photo works:

Very cute! I love your proposal story!

I can't believe we won!!! I definitely made a huge scene at work when I read the email! LOL Thank you again soooo much!

I agree with everyone else, the first one gives you that 'WOW' factor. It fits you perfectly!

Wow! I am so glad I saw this just in time! I sent in my email just now, how exciting!!

Thanks! I just searched through images on google and used Powerpoint to edit them and add fonts. The posts on this website helped me a TON!!
