Hey Carolina...we really are wedding twins...same dress, some flower shop! I ordered my flowers from her back in October! She's not sending them until May, which stills give us a few months before our big day! I love the bouquet you choose...here's a couple of my inspiration of mine! Ours will be slightly different with the coral and pink plumeria flowers instead of just pink!

I haven't shown my FI my dress...like the other ladies I want to see him blown away on the day of the wedding! The first time he sees me will be walking down the aisle! It's going to be such a wonderful moment! ISLAND BRIDE - I love that you threw him off of the trail! I keep telling my FI that it's short and really puffy...when really my dress is very sleek and classy! It's the Zuri dress by Maggie.

Thanks for the compliments about the cards Carolina24! I'm so happy with how they turned out! About the brochure...it was so easy! Another BDW bride had posted the one that she made. http://bestdestinationwedding.com/fo...taprint-50541/ I had already created one of my own so I had the idea to use the information from mine but just have it printed through VISTA. I remembered that I had received an email from VISTA with everything free, including the 25 free brochures (I can forward it to you if you PM me your email) I searched for a brochure with a beach theme and went from there. It's great because you can customize the font and colour scheme and even add you own images. With shipping and exchange they came to $10.00 but well worth it! I've been really impressed with the quality and the great thing is that you can save it for later too. I had a few people proofread them before ordering. Cheers...love the idea sharing!

Hey Jess...I ordered the cards through Vista Print. They provide the paper and do the printing! The one I ordered is called the Folded Note Card...if you sign up for the website you get promotional emails all the time! I just ordered 25 free brochures to mail a couple months before our departure for $5.00! It's a great site! I also have made hats for our Dads and postcards for the OOT bags through them.

I'd be in for a Get Together! Just a reminder...if anyone is interested in a Boudoir Shoot we've got a date booked with TAIT PHOTOGRAPHY on February 20th! PM me if you're interested!

Here are the thank you cards I ended up ordering from VISTA PRINT! For 50 cards with envelopes, it came to $70 which isn't too bad...basically $1.40 per card. They look beautiful! I'm going to use them for shower gifts!

Thanks for sharing this! I checked back in my emails from VISTA and I had one that gave me 25 free ones too...so what did I spend last night doing? Making my own brochure! Will post pictures when I recieve them! Thanks again...how does VISTA make money?

Wow...great find! Thanks for sharing! What great choice...might be a nice idea for part of my BM's gift!

It will be so hot! If not...no biggie! With photos, champagne and all that...I'm sure we'll be ready for some AC during our reception! Some guests may even go for a dip in between. We've booked to have our reception at one of the indoor restaurants. Update to my done list: - Ordered and Received Thank You cards through VISTA PRINT - Bought my shoes - wicked sandals from THE SHOE COMPANY - Got clutches/make-up bags for my bridesmaids and MOH - Ordered Personalized Two Tone Beach Bags - Ordered Personalized Insulated Mugs - Created Hats for our Dad's through VISTA PRINT How's everyone else doing with the planning?

Just changed the name of the thread! Let me know if you're interested!

Okay so we have 4 girls that are in for sure and one on the fence! ANYONE ELSE INTERESTED IN THE FEBRUARY 20th SESSION? We need at least one more girl! Please let me know ASAP!

They look awesome! Way to go! Now the fun part starts...seeing who is actually going to come!

I too love my ring and I wear it all the time! Like many have mentioned I have a mother who never took her ring off. I guess I'm following her example. I only take it off to blow dry my hair ( don't use a brush just my fingers) and to kick box or do weights at the gym (it goes right in my sports bra...would never leave it in the change room. Just a tip...I did pick up a natural cleaner at one of the bridal shows and I love it! Works really well!

Just received the hats that I made through VISTAPRINT. I got the email for a free hat and went in three times to get three free ones. I just had to pay the $5 shipping charge for each. I think they came out great. One for my Dad, one for my FI's Dad and one for my FI's step dad.

I just received my thank you cards today from VISTAPRINT. These are the cards we will use for shower gifts and pre-wedding gifts. They are the Folded Note Card and were $70 for 50 cards with matching envelopes. Not too bad and they came out so well! LOVE VISTA! My idea is to take a picture of my FI and I down in the DR together with Thank You written in the sand for wedding gift thank you cards. Standing up Inside Message Front Monogram - designed by a good friend!

Okay Ladies...just sent this in a PM but for anyone else out there who might be interested! I just heard from TAIT and they are available for a Toronto weekend on February 20th! How exciting! The session will be one hour and will be $195. Which I think is a pretty great price! You can also choose to have hair and make-up done for $80. So what I need from you know are definate confirmations that you are in. Please PM me ASAP so that I can let them know if they should book their flights! Once we have 5 or 6 girls confirmed then we are good to go and can figure out when and when our specific sessions will be! So message me and let me know!

Great finds! I agree the guys gifts for the OOT bags are tough! What are other people doing for them?

So far I've got PM's from 2 brides so there are 3 including myself. Come on ladies...message me to let me know you're still interested!

Awesome...what dollar store was it?

Hey Ladies...so I'm the new organizer! I will call Tait tomorrow and find out what dates they are available. They were booked the weekend that we were looking at, Feb 27th and 28th. I know that March Break week is out for me but work dates in February or March work for everyone else...or maybe PM or post here if there are definitely dates that don't! Next question: Who is in? Or wants to be in? Could you please PM me with your emails so that we can get this organized! Look forward to hearing from you and will get back to you about what dates are good for TAIT! Cheers!

Heading to Body Attack class today!

Wow! Great job! Enjoy your special day...I bet it's hard to believe it's almost here!

I could organize...my email is [email protected]! Send me an email with her contact info! Girls is there still interest? Could you also pass on the emails of those that have said they would participate! Thanks!

I had lots of luck at the Michael's at Weston and Hwy 7 for you Toronto ladies...they didn't have much at Dixie Mall! Yes...we must not forget to actually make the tanks!
