I see you are from Ontario Susie Q, me too, where are you departing from and when, maybe we will be at the same airport? we are leaving Jan. 31 from Toronto. Looking forward to a few more chats before the big day !!!! I am so excited for you... we leave on the 27th of January and our group is leaving the 29th.. If you see a group of mental cases with tshirts on with the Vanderwouw Wedding Crashers on them, that be my group!!!! We're from Newmarket Ontario... I actually have another bride getting married on the 2nd of Feb at the same resort.. Great date!!!!!

While I was in Punta cana last winter I seen a bride an older lady, my guess 60's and she a beautiful white lace dress with a collar neck line and a very open back... She looked stunning with her silver hair. I was.. holy smokers I wanna look like her on my wedding day.

I am a big cryer too... everyone teases me because I cry over everything.... I don't care it's me.... I can not change who I am and if my have a few red spots or have to keep fixing makeup, oh well it's real for me... I'll be feeling it!!!

I did my own flowers and they turned out ok.. If you have questions pm me... good luck.. I wasn't that hard, hurts the fingers wrapping...

She wanted the dress for her 50th anniversary celebration this past weekend. So who says there is an age limit for strapless! oh my god.............................. how wonderful is that? I would love to have seen pics of that....... Yippppers for the older bride.......

Looking forward to a few more chats before the big day !!!! funny I have to be very honest ... when I left my ex husband I took off my watch and I have not worn one since.... I realized, my time was over and I didn't need to keep track of time ever again...I waited long enough for something to end.... I have been to Mexico 4 times since and for the life of me I can not tell you what time the sun sets.... I have a self directed clock I wake up before 7am... if I need to wake up earlier I tell myself the time and I can wake up within ten minutes of that time.. by the way welcome & happy planning PS: shellK will tell you I am a witch... don't believe her!!

Well..we go gown shopping Saturday and I'm looking forward to it...I will be armed with my favorite strapless corsette to hold the girls in and cinch in my tummy...I hope that does the trick as I plan to eat well today!! Thanks again and have a great Thanksgiving!! Clap clap clap!!!!! You Go Girl!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Kill their comments with kindness and if that fails.. tell them

Thanks for sharing everything looks so amazing.... Have a great day.. CHEERS

just stunning... I am not sure what happened, i seen comments that you had an accident and your face was hurt. Not one sign of that on your pictures you looked amazing. Thanks for sharing

I am just amazed by all the wonderful stuff you had for your wedding and the details of everything. WOW you were a busy girl. Congrats and best of luck in your new journey in life as mrs & mr

I do plan on tipping, not sure how much. Right at this moment i am not too happy with my WC over a DJ issue and being forced to have one at $190 per hour. So I am going to see how things transpire over the next month.

Amazing stuff, you put a lot of time and love into this wedding... congrats

Love "totally" love flip flops... the return of tights?

Hi lovely mature bride, same here I am 42 second second time bride. I have choosen a halter dress and I love the cleavage in my dress. Sorry my ass isn't anything to write home back anymore, I have the girls and they are all real, I am playing the big sexy boob gal. I am a plus size girl too.... one thing I know as a mature woman is what I can pull off and I think if you feel you can pull it off and feel great. GOOOOOOOOOOOOOO FOOOOOOOOOOOOOR it sweetheart it is!!!!!!! Goos luck Hun...

He's a keeper!!!!

Ah what the hell!!! 3 posts in a roll from the wind bag.lol Thanks ladies, I am loving my dress again... I wasn't myself on Monday and was totally freaking out over nothing. FI is away for four night bummer, time to hang out with my chickies..... PS thought I run this by you gals... I need some input.. My resort the Gran Bahia Principe Tulum is forcing me to pay $380 dollars for a DJ to play music for 22 people... I want to just bring my own Ipod and speakers and not spend that money. They are refusing to allow me to do this. I think $380 dollars for 2 hours is nuts.... Oh and by-the-way she did say I could give my ipod to the DJ and have him play my songs.... damn what a great job 190.00 a hour to push play. what are your thoughts... i am totally fighting for this one

No i am not doing table cards or numbers I figure that someone will be looking at their name at the table and saying "ah sucks!!! i have to sit with you for dinner". My friends and family are totally like that. No class hahahahaha

Holy that's a big pic

futuremrsgooderich I am currently trying to figure out if we need placecards and what the benefit of table cards are... I cant remember the last wedding we went to. We are having a sit down dinner and 62 (I think)... I got from another girl off of here some place card holders that were cheap (like 4 for 1.50)- not really wanting to spend a ton of money on stuff that will only be used once. But now not sure about the table cards... are you guys having them? Mine are very simple I bought tiny plastic picture frames and used coloured cardstock as backing and attached very cheap name tags. see picture: cost about .55 cents each... Cheapy cheap

Hi Ladies, It's hump day!! a month before xmas day... lol I am feeling better today... thanks chickies: Here is the dress
