Wow, everything looks amazing! All of your hard work paid off, everything came together beautifully. Congrats on the wedding, you must be so happy!

Congrats, that's super exciting!

Great shots! You must be very happy with them. You two looked gorgeous!

Oh wow!!! I love how everything came together so well for you. And I love your bouquet, super fun! I like the contrast of the gorgeous shoes and your tattoo on your foot! You must be really looking forward to getting all of your shots after seeing these

Oh wow, stunning! You two look incredible! I love Michelle's work.

Wow, it looks great! The lounge was such a great idea, and it looks like everything came together nicely. Congrats!

So sorry to hear that, it does not sound like fun at all. I'm sure that it will all work out in the end though! I'm not sure how big the deposit is, but if things don't improve could you possibly move the wedding elsewhere where they may also have a nice chapel? Hang in there!

Very helpful, I had the same questions! Thanks!

Welcome in advance to Vancouver! You'll love it, especially with all of the cherry blossom that will be in bloom by the time you get there! Feel free to ask if you have any questions!

Crystal, that dress is amazing!!! You will look incredible! Wieseelliott, congrats and welcome! I am still in STD madness, I won't go into details but it has entailed going to Kinkos 5 times, having 8 conversations with the staff, sending the files over 3 times and resulted in a 30% discount (and lots of gray hair?). I'm pretty annoyed about the whole thing because I thought asking professionals to print & cut would make my life easier, but it has done the opposite and is costing a ridiculous amount of money. In the end they couldn't even cut anything - I should have done it myself! It should be done "soon" though, I'll post pictures!

Wow, great job Bree! They look amazing.

Hi Kodi! Nice to meet you, I was wondering who was getting married just before me! I will be dropping by one of the days to do my walk-through and tasting, so maybe I'll see you! Sounds like you're more organized than me! I really need to get more stuff done.

I also found the dress on lightinthebox (A-line Sweetheart Chapel Train Satin Tulle Wedding Dresses for Bride (HSX221) - US$ 129.99) - they have it at $129.99. Should give you an idea! It's a pretty sweet price!

We're flying out Amber Hughes. She's diversifying her wedding portfolio and so we got a great rate for being her first destination wedding! She has really affordable rates for engagement sessions, you should look her up!

Wow, that resort looks incredible! I can totally see why you two fell in love with it.

Great idea! They will be a hit!

This looks a lot like a dress that I tried. I looked at the website from the place I tried it on and the dress is a Pattis (from the Pattis website, spring 2009 - Estee). There is no beading but the rest is very similar - they might have modified it a bit in making their own version, I'm not sure. I don't know your budget, but it was a pricey dress. Maybe someone knows another designer who makes a similar dress? Best of luck!!!

It's really up to you... do you feel strongly about only seeing your groom for the first time when you are walking down the isle? Either way, it will be very special. If you are having a cocktail hour, it may be good to do some photos before, so that you can enjoy the food and drinks as well! An alternative could be to shoot the photos with your mom and BM, MOH before the wedding, this way you still get some photos out of the way but keep the tradition intact!
