That is so cute... another nutty dog owner that refers to their dog as their children... we refer to ourselves as Mummy and Daddy when speaking to our dogs. FI thinks it's really funny to spazzed the dogs out and tell them to go love mummy, they both attack me with kisses and snuggles. Yeah so how could you say no? Did you get a picture for your scrapbook?

Claudia sent me the email that she was in fact going to be allowed to come onto the resort and take the photos of the wedding. So I decline Roser - politely. Today Roser from the resort sends me and email telling me I misunderstood and Claudia is still not allowed onto the resort to take photos...so I again replied that I was told Claudia had worked something out with them and she would be my photographer. So I get an email from Claudia tonight telling me she was at the resort today and the photo studio told her I had told them I was cancelling her services and had decided to go with them!!!! I am sure everyone is tired of this issue and I am sorry to bring it up again but this is ridiculous and very unprofessional. I know a couple of you had also gotten emails from Claudia that she would be coming for your photos as well, so maybe double check the resort is not cancelling her for you. Hun you are so getting th run-around and that is totally unfair. I know I have a family member that will be doing our pictures, I haven't asked if thats ok and I have no intentions of asking... Just doing it!!! I don't have a number for Paloma, I am wondering if you just called the resort and asked for her would they direct you to her or give you a number? Good Luck... Don't throw in the towel on this resort yet, it a very beautiful spot.

You look beatiful and so happy in it, which makes it perfect. vdaybride - I love the location for your AHR, if you decide to do it there. Awesome city views! I'm from NYC too. Wedding planning is coming along for well me. We just got our invites printed so we are mailing them out next week! And we ordered our wedding bands, not sure when they'll be ready but at least we picked them and they are in process. And we're going to Mexico next weekend for a site visit, tastings, hair trial, etc. Our parents are going also so it will be fun for them to see everything. I'm very excited for a little beach and warm weather!!! Lucky girl going to Mexico next week... oh oh take me take me... I hate the cold and it is already started dipping below zero at night... I can not stand it. Thanks!!! I am happy about my dress.

I knew the bride when she use to rock and roll... several versions of it, a blast to dance too... you both will be laughing

Friday 3.15pm i am home, finished work for the week, just got out of the hot tub and enjoying a glass of red wine... my guess is shiraz FI poured and is picking at me because i will not commit to an answer as to what i think it is. Such a pest!!!

Can't wait to see more of it when it is done! For the RECORD: I think I have an addiction to this website. I am in a hotel in Vegas and instead of being outside on the strip I am on here check it! Yeah me too "total addict"!!! Ok you're in Vegas now get out and win some money... Sending you Susie's luck... i always win... not anything to write home about , sometimes up to $2500.00 . We don't gamble much once a year we go to the cascino for a charity event I organize every year. Good luck hun and thanks... i was really worried about my dress, it took me two weeks to call her back and go try it on. She thought I had cancelled my wedding or something bad had happened. I felt guilty, I was really scared i was going to hate it and have to tell the poor lady her dress sucked...lol

Does anyone remember the name of the stylist that they were happy with? On the photographer note - I'm bringing a photographer from home and he's staying the week with his wife so he's a guest so it's a non-issue. For any of you who still have time to do this, I totally recommend it. To save on costs, you could try and find someone who's just starting out and wants a DW as part of their portfolio. Happy planning everyone! When is your wedding date, mine is Feb 2/10 will he be there at this time

They are so cute!!!! amazes me how creative you ladies are.

What a great idea and super lean on the wedding budget!!

I am going without a veil, I just couldn't deal with it blowing around. It is my second wedding so I am going for less traditional as well.

I like it and think it is very flattering on you.... You need to feel it though!!!! If you don't keep looking and get the dress that does it for you

For everyone with the whole WC switch....it sounds like this is going to be for the better. She seems to respond to you guys so much faster and that has to be a good thing! Question for anyone who has stayed on the Tulum side. Is there only the one a la carte restaurant there? Jazmin has told us we have to have our dinner in the gourmet restaurant and I just want to make sure that is our only option. Ah NO!!! there are like four there!!! I have been there before and I am getting married there and I wa given at least two options, the Mexican or he Steakhouse. I'd be sending Jazmin another email asking about more options. Don't you love this fourm... No secrets or pulling the wool over anyones eyes... We'll find out lol

Good Luck and keep in touch with us. You'll have a beautiful wedding no matter where it is.

very nice rings... Good Luck on your wedding day

oh!!! the meds they give them are so strong, i know my granny was seeing things and saying things that just blew me away. One day she asked for my mom, her oldest daughter, I could barely breathe, my mom had died 15 years prior. I just held her hand and said "granny your the only one that can talk to her now". She then says "I suspose I'll go see her then if she isn't coming to see me". I just couldn't find words to respond. Another time she woke from a day and a half of semi coma state to say " I want to come back as a flower you know, not a rose, cause they don't last no time, i want to be a daisy". I am like hell she is stone out of her mind and she is dreaming about daisies. After she died and year later I had a tiny daisy tatooed on my very lower back. it's my way of bringing her back. Stay strong girl...... laugh and be happy even though you feel sadness and tears. Thinking of you

Holy smokes girl can I hire you!!!!!

yeah that really sucks.... Some of us are just trusting and get burnt... I really hope it wasn't a huge amount... I hope you get it resolved

Can you hear me clapping? Yeah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Baby!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I was built for comfort and not speed.... It's my junk in the trunk.... Keep your opinions to yourself!!!! I really hear you on this one, whenI was looking for a wedding dress, I went to a small shop local and the owner (YUP the owner) told me when I walked in she would not have any samples to try on because she does carry my size because it would hidious on a hanger and no one would want to try it on..............wasn't giving that place a second thought, I hauled my huge ass out the door with whatever money I was considering spending on my dress. Whatever!!! We're all made different shapes, sizes some people need to get over themselves and realize there is no such thing as perfection. I would have told her, you can't shake what you don't have sister. Queen "Fat Bottom Girl" I have yet to hear a song about some skinny ass chic!!!! Oh yeah I could go on lmao.... You rock girl

My dress is similar with it being split but in the side and I love how the Chiffon flows in your dress! Good job girl!!! Good night. It's only 11:15am here so while you are sleeping I'll be working! Booo.... boring! Here is my dress (but picture it in ivory and a size 16 not size 2 like on the model) lol I will have better pictures when I try it on again! ~ Erica I love that split on the side, someone mentioned to me that the side spilt is very slimming. I just couldn't find anything that wasn't a formal gown with a side spilt. I know we're both going to be very happy to have a light fabric gown when its 35 degrees. You look very beautiful in your dress, great choice, very flattering.

Morning ladies, Erica, I should have my dress in about two the three weeks. I found this lovely seamstress that has a shop on the side of her house and I swear she works 24/7. I met her at a fabric store where she works part time for the deals she gets on fabric. Being an employee she get 50% off. My fabric was $38 dollars, and the material and labour together she is charging me $250.00 for my dress. I have to admitt last night driving to her house which is a hour out in the country with no street lights, i was shaking my head and feeling a little sick. When I got there my dress was on a bust in the window of her shop and I could see it when I pulled in her driveway, it was a sigh of relief. My gfriend came with me and she was admiring fabric in her shop and now she is having a custom dress made for my wedding. It was a celebration glass of wine last night.lol I was really freaked out about my dress as many brides talked about the flowy fabric making them look huge and pregnant. I had not tried on a flowy dress I had just took a picture and had it made. I am sure Erica your glad you went with this style, it just feels beachy. Anyway ladies i have to head off to work... i have a smile on my face and a skip in my step... Oh forgot to mention headache from the wine. lol
