A little about myself so you girls don't feel like you're chatting with a perfect stranger: I got engaged in February of this year in Australia while my FI and I were on vacation. Our wedding is at the Occidental Grand Xcaret near Playa del Carmen on Feb. 16. We're actually doing a symbolic ceremony, as we wanted to get all the legal stuff out of the way here in Canada (much less stressful). Right now, it looks like we'll have around 30 guests. We're keeping everything pretty low-key; that's that way we prefer it. I'll have to figure out how to post a pic of my dress. It's very beach-appropriate, I think; something I envisioned from the get-go. Great to be part of this group! Awesome!!!!!! I have been to the OGX it is a very nice resort... you'll love it... I was there 5 years ago an had an amazing time. FI and I are doing the legal stuff home too... Just easier.... we getting married Jan 16th here at the house.. we have a couple coming that can not come to the wedding to be witinesses... They have been told this is a to your grave secret... damn how easy I can tell you gals lol.... It is very exciting because we are all so close to our day.. Once xmas is over this is going to hit us so hard... I am the first in our group... I will have my netbook with me and will keep you gals posted for the entire trip. -

Hey timberly, I got an email yesterday it is at Canada Customs, I'll have that package very soon... No worries... you go off and get hitched. Ok chris I think we should do something funny with that picture... maybe print it and leave out for certian people to see... I would leave it lieing around for my FSIL, when she is here she always is checking things out and making comments. we all have someone in our lives that we could total mess with.... Just put a posty note on the dress saying alteration Friday at 10am bring wedding shoes... I can just hear hear callin all of her sisters and my FMIl... "do you have any idea what kind of dress she is wearing'? rant rant rant....lol So funny!!!! -

Poor kid he is on stage palying the entire evening with his fly down... No one told him, they were on and off stage at least ten times. so show is over wer getting ready to leave and out he comes fly still down... I warn his mom my gfriend to leave it... No sense in mentioning it now.... We have been home for about 20 minutes she calls me and he is in his PJ's and didn't even notice... sometimes ya gotta keep your mouth shut and just leave things alone... lol my funny for the day -

Ok I have not scrolled ahead and I am telling you no.... I am speaking for your mother, his mother, your father ... Oh your getting NO... ya little shit!!!! was gonna say something else. -
I totally get where your coming from... My brother actually took invites off my dinningroom table and gave them to his friends. I counted the invites a couple times before I realized four were missing... I mentioned it to my FI and he said "oh I did want to say anything but your brother took a few yesterday while he was here". Ok I was seeing red and called him up to ask what the hell he was thinking. His explanation was "I took mine so you didn't have to mail it and I grabbed a couple for my friends because I want them to come'. I totally flipped out at him... that he could have a vacation with his friends and drink his face off, I didn't want his friends at my wedding and that he needed to make that totally clear to each and everyone of them. Needless to say Bro has not booked yet!!!!!

Hi Teneil I am doing the OOt bags and the welcome brochure is really just a map of the resort, a letter welcoming everyone and a spanish/english frequently used sayings. OOT bags are just fun stuff like water guns,poker chips, cards,beach balls. I got nerf footballs for the teen boys. Oh and the usually stuff.. aloe vera, sunscreen, pepto, ect... I am glad to have all that stuff done. -

I could smell this really strong melting plastic so I look around. Yep big cloud of smoke at the front of the truck. I run back and have this ball of flame where the cords all connect! Got the fire out and the truck seems no worse for wear, but it was a little adrenaline pumping....it is so cold that the frost built up on the plug and caused it to arc. Nice. It is tooo cold when we are second in the world the other night to someplace called Silveria! I want to move somewhere warm permanently! (Just without the snakes and weird bugs!) Oh my god hun... we have family in Cold Lake Alberta and they are on facebook telling us just how cold it is there... You are certianly in the deep freeze.. I hope your wheels are ok. -
I know from buying two custom built homes that I have had the same experience in the first home and I did call to complain and the workers were ripped for it. The owner of the company went mental on the guys and they all pointed fingers at the different trades that were involved. I think in the end that who ever was doing that stopped because all trades were under the scope of the site super. It was taken very seriously and cleaned up. I handled it myself, I called they owner and was very calm in my approach.... He had it totally cleaned up the next time we were there. Holy smokes we are talking and purchase that will take you 25 years to pay for... Have some respect!!!!

welcome Teshy1 we are a fun group of gals... give us the low down on who your are... We love newbies to our group... Brooke I hope kitty gets her voice back... I lost one of my dogs for a few hours.. my little boston and I was mental.... someone found her and put her in the back yard and sent their kids around to ask if any one lost her.... The kids had headed in the direction they seen the dog coming towards them.. By that time she had already turned around and was headed home.. Little bugger!!! I did have a blast at the xmas/shower party.... It was really nice to see those guys and how much they have matured.. Ah some off them lol.... FI's company has a whole lot of credit to take for changing these kids... The owners have bailed some of them out of jail and had them living at their house for extended periods. Really awesome employers... Are you ladies doing a planning thread to show the whole journey of the planning your wedding? I was thinking not to and now I saying maybe I should.... -
Traveling With Dress
SusieQ replied to jenninjamaica's topic in Destination Wedding Dresses, Wedding Attire & rings
From years of traveling down south I have seen so many brides having their dress in hand boarding the plane and having it stored in a closet aboard the plane. Once I did see a flight attendant that was rude to the bride and push the poor girl's dress into a closet and slam the door. The look on this gals face was scary... It was between you just crushed my heart with crushing my dress and woman I am going to kill you. I will be taking my dress on board with me.. even if I have to wear it lol -
