Misty your save the dates are great!! We are sending out luggage tags with our pre-travel booklet

I'm going to post the results as soon as I get the percentages done, I was so busy yesterday! Hols I can still track you in the non-competing category if you like, let me know!

ou Erin your centrepieces are gorgeous!!!! I especially like the calla lily one

wow that is REALLY pretty!!!

I got chocolate brown with teal handles and a teal button at dollarama, I cleaned them right out LOLLL

yeah I'm going to try that, I had it on Kijiji but the sale fell through... booo!

Tara - the junior member status is at 150, you get your member button at 300 I believe, and senior button at 1,000. I have no idea what it is for elite member, I guess I will see when I get there LOL! I haven't decided what to do about the ceremony music yet, we go back and forth between iPod and Caribbean Trio. Who knows, I will have to wait and see! Toya, you could do really low key centrepieces if you wanted, it just takes a little bit of thinking and also the realization about how low key you want your reception. Honestly, if my reception were at the resort I would have done something a little more elaborate, but since our reception is on a boat, it will be beautiful all around us! I didn't want to lug big complicated centrepieces around for nothing... lol AND, I had to consider that flameless candles were necessary (real ones would blow out on a boat!)

Yay Cougs for the mile run!! That's a big step When I ran my first mile I felt SO accomplished, you should too! Stop the down-playing of your accomplishments, you rock!! I am on board for the halfway mark... if anyone doesn't want me to do theirs, send me an email or a PM like Manders said and I will leave you off of the halfway mark list. I will still post a weekly results %, just not the 6 week total. We will count initial weigh-in as week 1, which means we are at the 6 week mark this week...deal everyone? Linds, you are ridic.! I read it and thought "oh shit, is today thursday?" hahahaha

I can't believe noone has made an offer on this yet!

well technically we weighed in 6 weeks ago to start, so does that mean its 6 weeks? For weighing in since first weigh in it will only be 5... thoughts? I LOVE the idea Manders

like. cheetos?

Elifrigo I just looked at the attachment you posted earlier, and I originally had the exact same picture as you (3rd one) as my centrepiece inspiration picture lol! I just decided to go even more simple, but its very gorgeous!!

Thanks for sending that along Erin, I just got home and didn't have it on my work computer!

elifrigo- I will try to find it, and send it along! Erin also has it, so maybe she could send it to you too!

welcome Cath!! Did you know that you can have the resort decorate the gazebo? It comes at a fee of $300, but since I don't know if you are on a budget or not I'm not sure if that is an issue She could probably send you some pictures of what it looks like, or maybe a girl on here can! I am getting married on the beach, so I don't have any gazebo pictures for you Like I said, at worst you ask the wedding coordinator And Tara that is so nice to leave decorations!!

Sheri it does get easier, keep working! Hols, there is one in particular I can never finish, its near the middle and I actually laid back and said "oh my fack are you kidding me?!" lol

Hey Tara! We bought small square vases from Dollarama, then bought ribbon from Michaels (which will be used in our formal invites as well), some dollar store tealights and white rocks that go in a fsh tank... very simple! I will post pictures once I get some of them.. lol

bahahaha Sheri! I giggled, since I know how hard it is... P.S. P90X Ab Ripper killed me, I am so sore today!!

Jenise, feel free to steal the color, since I stole it from someone else! lol We are bringing real touch bouquets for the girls, but that's all. And actually, they are carrying them themselves haha but as far as boutonnieres and my bouquet, we are only using what the resort gives us. We are doing our reception off the resort, and are only bringing centrepieces for that. The total cost for my 3 centrepieces is about $4.00 each! I'm el cheapo when it comes to that, but I just really don't see the point in making it expensive!

So I went to Zumba today, then came home and decided to do some P90X Ab Ripper and Ypga... lol not supposed to go together, but I liked it lolll

Just wondering as this is probably the 3rd time I've changed my color selection but I really think this time, I'm sticking with it! My colors have been this since the beginning, and just recently we added Royal blue! It has been pretty easy so far to find those colors, actually

Welcome Jenise!!! We are a great bunch in this thread and on the whole forum, you will find so much stuff it will bowl you over!!! hahaha

Bahahaha Manders I wish!!

I was about to say exactly what Ann said, it is possible to pay a fee instead of reaching the 150 post threshold. You can though, like MsShelley said contribute to threads where you can get ideas, advice about your resort, and so on. Whatever way you are more comfortable with, go with that, but there is nothing like good ol' fashioned conversation! Good luck!
