*Linds*

these came out so pretty! I love the color!

omg those are awesome!

I love the dollar tree! My FI will be happy to know I can order stuff online, because he hates that place for whatever reason- he's crazy!

Wow! These look great, so detailed! It must have taken some time!

Thanks for sharing! This is so helpful!

WOW- yours turned out great!

I'm thinking it would be cute to make these for our AHR....If i end up making some I'll def. post pics!

I can't get over the shot kits, such a good idea!

those are really cute!

I can't remember if I already commented on these or not, but WOW! Those look AWESOME~!!!!

Sorry to hear you had to change plans! I'm sure your day will still be special!

That sounds like a great deal! Congrats!!! Happy planning!

Check out the Riviera Maya in Mexico. There are a vast amount of beautiful resorts! (I am a little bias though) haha! Happy Planning!!

I am having a semi-formal AHR with all of the traditional practices of a traditional reception. It will be just like our guests didn't attend our ceremony. We chose to do this because there will be a large number of friends/family members that will not be joining us in Mexico. This allows us to really have the best of both worlds! A wedding in paradise and a celebration at home with everyone we love!

i love the holiday cards! Thanks for sharing!

You take breath-taking photos!

I was frustrated with all the planning too so I decided to take the destination route and I know it will be perfect for my FI and I! We will be having an AHR (formal) but the details aren't too important to me. I am just picking what I like and sticking to my budget! I hope you make the decision that will make your wedding day perfect for you!

I'm a mexico bride too! Congrats!

awww such a good story! Congrats!

Jannae- that's AWESOME about the upgraded room! I am REALLY hoping our travel agent can do smoething like that for us, but I'm not going to bet my mortgage payment on it...I will be crossing my fingers tightly though. How were you able to negotiate that? I am working on the pics. This weekend is my FINAL GOAL! haha! Most recently I had a meltdown about my flowers. They are really pretty and all but they are all silk and they just don't look near as good as the real touch. My mom is meeting with the gal doing our flowers as I type this, we are looking into changing to real touch. I'll keep you all posted on how it goes. This weekend the FI and I are going to meet with the bakery to do cake tasting and pick out the design on our cake for our AHR- should be fun! I can't wait to hear about Lisa's trip. I really hope it went well for her! The countdown is on for Josie!

ugh i love this dress!

Congrats! I just sent mine out 2 weeks ago!

That's true! Thanks Shellk!

The Paradiso Collection of designer engagement rings and diamond wedding rings by Verragio. My ring...I don't feel like the pictures do it justice! I will post pics of my own soon!

So pretty! Good luck!
