Congrats on the big day! Glad that you had a wonderful wedding

Hang in there!!!!! Just keep focusing on the big picture - if things can't get done then they just didn't get done. Sometimes you just have to let some things go! Your day will be perfect, just keep in mind that in the end, all that matters is the commitment you two are making to one another! Have a great time!!!

Congrats on the big day, glad that it went so well!

Hi Jenny! A surprise wedding? I'm intrigued! Good luck!

I hope that your day got better and that it all gets sorted out for you! Hang in there!

Welcome to the forum! There are threads out there that will answer all of your forum questions. As well, I'm sure that you'll find loads of info on your resort by searching for it! Happy planning!

Seriously, what an amazing experience the entire time in Mexico was, I am so glad to have been a part of it all! p.s. your bouquet was to die for. did anyone mention that yet? Haha, thanks Michael! We just thought that you were awesome. If you haven't noticed, I think I'm used to people who just talk and talk (Travis). Quote: Originally Posted by taranyc Hi Magalie.

I found it on the internet, as a free PDF download. It was from an Australian wedding magazine called Wedding Style Guide - it used to be found here Wedding Style Guide downloads (still look at the site, they have great stuff!). Looks like it's gone though. I've attached the PDF, hopefully it works! Otherwise send me your email and I'll send it to you. LittleBitCountryLabel.pdf

Edit - just read your last post! Good to hear it's all good now!

Great photos! I especially love the "fashion shoot" ones. Your short dress was amazing!

Welcome to the forum! Glad to hear that the resort has been decided! It will be amazing, I'm sure of it!

ARE YOU KIDDING ME That's incredible!!!! You have talent, that's for sure!

Great website! I'm sure that it will help many!

I didn't do the OOT bag. I mean, I get that it's a nice gesture, but who goes on vacation without sunscreen or Advil or anything like that I just did a welcome letter in everyone's rooms. We also paid for the taxes for everyone's rooms. I get that they paid a lot to come to my wedding, but I didn't want to give people stuff that they didn't need. Do what works for you!

My mom was there for some of the dress shopping and it really ended-up meaning a lot to the both of us.

We paid for it out of our wedding budget. My wedding band also came out from that, so that was our reasoning!

What a great idea, I love it!

Wow, very detailed! I'm sure that it will help lots of brides-to-be out there. Thank you for sharing and I'm glad that everything was so incredible for you! I love the photos, they are really nice! The silly one at the end is awesome!

I'm so happy that I am also in Vancouver, I have already contacted Amber about destination wedding prices and engagement photos! Congratulations, and I'm sure that you feel absolutely lucky to have such cherished photos of your wedding day! You won't regret it, she's amazing!!!! I hope that she's available for you

Jenna, this is still fresh, so take a few days / weeks to see how it goes. Maybe in the end he'll really want to go along with it, or perhaps not. I think if he knows that there is less immediate pressure it could help. You're right, the importance is to be happy and I'm so glad that the session went well and helped. Keep talking and you will get through this stronger!

Congrats on the big day! Thank you for sharing your pictures!

Wow, you did so much! Thank you for sharing such a detailed thread! Your wedding will be amazing. PS: I LOVE your cake topper - too cute!!!

Sorry to hear that the pictures didn't turn out as you wished... sometimes though you can do magic in Photoshop. I've heard of other photographers fixing pictures for a fee, it could be an option! Good luck, I hope that it works out for you!

I didn't have a BM or MOH either, and I think that it was perfectly fine. I had friends come with me for the dress, but I never asked them to be in the wedding party. They ended-up not even being to come to the wedding. I din't have a shower, etc. I know that it means a lot to some people, but it didn't mean much to me, so I was fine with it. Just remember that the wedding is about the two of you, and not about if you have any BM or etc. In the end, what was meant to be will be! Good luck

Welcome to the forum you two!
