of course it's possible. If money is an issue would you consider 11-11-11? FI and I are doing it on our anniversary 1/6 and we wanted to do it next year, but after getting the prices for everything we might have to push it back to 1/6/12. good luck:)

Our colors are deep champagne (a tan or taupe shade) and black. We are having Callas I am getting black and a sprayed champagne calla for bridesmaiiiid.flower girl. and for myself I am having flame and peach callas.

Hey ebernard4985. Why dont you put a corsage on one of the seats on the grooms side? where she would be seated if shewas able to come. I agree that putting her with the deceased is not proper. You want to celebrate the deceased in one way (spirit lives on) and people who are unable to come in a different way. If she is sick or something you could put a poem that has to do with illness or ask the other members of your party for prayers. If she is just unable to make it, I think having a reserved seat for her would be nice. With a corsage or flower and maybe a save the seat tag or something.

Our photographer requested the final payment the day of the wedding. And everyone have have requested quotes from said the same thing. If a couple didn't pay then the photographer would be screwed because of the distance and so it is a regular thing for DW from what I gather.

Hey I can't stop thinking about you. Having been in your shoes, I know you're hurting. I just want to make sure you're okay. I'm sure you are turned upside down in confusion, I just wanted to say I'm thinking about you and hope you have found some sort of peace within yourself. Much love sent out your way. Please update us and let everyone know how you are doing. Hugs <3

I lost my little brother in e 2007, When he was 18 he was my entire life, and it just doesn't seem right not including him in the wedding This is what I have decided to do. I found novelty cuff links on ebay that have 'brother of the bride' written on them.I am also going to have a boutonnier and picture of him. All will be sitting in the first seat on my side. If anybody else has lost a male member of the family and would like to do the cuff links they had ones for fathers,brothers,grandfathers,and uncles of both the bride and groom. I thought it was a cute idea.

I wanted to add that things CAN change, it won't be over night but it can happen. Its in your hands to make it happen. As I said before I have went through the same issues. My fiance is 29 and I am 24. I took it for as long as I could and kept it bottled up, which kinda seems like what you are doing, and finally I exploded. I told him its gonna change or we are done. And stuck to it. He went out one night and acted like he was a kid againm I wouldn't answer/return his calls. Wouldn't see him. And he straightened up really quick. But you have to speak up. If he doesn't change at least you have tried, you know? I think once you voice your opinion he will understand better. And stay on his ass about it. It took awhile for FI to understand I was serious but he grew up and we are better than ever.

Ugh, I'm so sorry. I had the SAME problem with my FI up until a few months ago. I straight up told him, sh*t is going to change or I am done! There is no reason for you to feel the way you do. Tell him its time to grow up, he doesn't have to go out every night or whatever. Tell him how you feel. Good luck I know its a sickening situation to be in. Much love to you

Hey I'd like some of the canvas totes as well as the turquoise lanterns. And if anything falls through please let me know. There is more I want if you're willing to split it up thanks!

I shouldn't complain about this, FI has the best intentions. Sometimes to help me out around the house he will do the laundry. He washes my underwear, dries and folds them. This wouldn't be a problem,but I wear thongs and most of them need to be hand washed or put on a delicate cycle. I have gone through countless pairs, due to him washing them. But the kicker is when he is folding the clothes, he is unsure how to fold a thong, so he ties them into little knots to get them to stay put. WTF?... I love him though. lol

I also got mine from ebay. She custom made me one in ivory with black trim and swarovski crystals in black. love it!

Congrats! You picked a great place I'm sure the other places are nice too. I meant to add in my last post that when we went they had a wedding there. I didn't see a ceremony, but FI and I went out on our balcony to watch the sun go down and have a few drinks and dessert, they were having their reception out in front of the pool. It looked beautiful! They had a lady singing(amazing voice!) while everyone was eating their dinner. The staff was dressed really nice. I'm sure the lucky couple were very happy with how things turned out. I was happy with how their night turned out and I wasn't even part of the event. hee hee Good luck with your planning. Best of luck for you and your family.

I hate to hear you're going through this. The best thing to do is confront him. Demand the truth. I had a simular situation with my FI and one of his friends. She was sending really nasty messages to him and I told him I wouldn't tolerate it anymore. She is no longer in the picture. Just trust your instinct. Have him give you his passwords (if he has nothing to hide he will give it to you) Most importantly don't let him make you feel bad for not trusting him. I would suggest going into couples therapy. If you want to try and work it out. Good luck. I am so sorry for all that the have going on.

I really don't have a preference of short or long. It will need to be a size 6/8 or larger though. If it's a larger size I can have it fitted. I've checked the vases on ebay and can only find them in large lots. I only need a few. I'll check out that other site. I'm looking for black heels. (any kind slingback, gladiator, peeptoes...anything) thanks for the help

Ok so I need 1 maid of honor dress 1 flower girl dress. (Deep champagne, a taupe kind of color or black) anything turquoise or fuschia for a reception. eiffel tower vases. 2 tuxedos or deep champagne colored vest/tie monogram cake topper "Y" also looking for shoes. size 6 1/2 to a small 8 if you have anything please let me know, or if you know where I can get it for good prices.thanks!

I think I need everything you have! whats left?

Well my FI is insane about sport bikes. He has an 07 and wants something a little faster. So what I was planning to do was get him a new bike, do a BD with me on the bike. and when we got home give him the bike. A little bit on the expensive side, but hopefully I can pull it off

Can u put up a pic of the card holders? I am interested in those as well as the I DO transfer. I wish the shoes were in my size.

I agree with your FI. This is YOUR day. Nobody else's. When we told our families that we were having a destination wedding, we had simular reactions. Everyone is so upset because they can't be there and making me feel horrible while they are pressuring me to do it at home, and even close family have told me they would NOT attend unless it is as home. I told them all that is fine. My wedding really has nothing to do with anyone but myself and FI. Anyone who can come is just a bonus. I think you should look at it the same way. My family is also wanting to do a fake wedding and reception when we get home. Like you, the funds are not there to do that. So what we have been talking about is to have a little dinner at the house or go out to dinner. For the close family/friends that can't make it to the wedding. (maybe you could do that) All in all, you need to do what makes you happy. A wedding is suppose to be a once in a lifetime, and we all need to treat it as such. You and FI need to do this for you. Good luck!

Hello Mrs. yuri! Okay we stayed at the Hilton in september. (We have also decided that to be the destination of our wedding.) As for them charging a day pass, I don't believe they do. We have been told, I think it may also be on their webside, that outside guests are welcome on their property. I haven't heard about a required day pass. When we went the ocean was really bad and we weren't really able to swim, there is a place off to the side that has rocks, blocking the bad waves, where we kinda splashed around and played in the waves. The waves were bad the whole week, so even though they say it is swimable, it wasn't for us. So you might want to consider that. 1 thing I was happy about with the beach- okay you know how you have the locals that try to sell you blacelets, and random stuff? that will NOT leave you alone? They aren't bad at the Hilton. (I've heard they are really bad elsewhere) And when we went to the Arch there was about 100 people at the beach trying to sell us bags, jewelry, etc. Also when we went there may have been 20 other people staying at the hotel. They have two pools. a main one and another one off to the side. Everyone went to the main pool out front and we went over to the side pool for more seclusion, we had the whole pool to ourselves the entire time. I think 1 day there was another couple at the other end. So I don't think you will have a problem witth over crowding at the Hilton. I am working with Tathiana, the WC at Hilton and she is helping me out any way she can with the food and drinks for the reception (they are a little pricey) he food is amazing and well worth the price, it that puts you at ease any Also even though it isn't AI, we spent most of our time at the hotel. We left only to go to the Arch, swim w/ dolphins, mall, and to go to Todos Santos. We really had no reason to leave. The food was amazing, they had a little deli that doubled as a little convenient store. If there is anything you wanted to do outside of the hotel you can call front desk and they will call and make reservations for you and your party. We really loved it there. I've looked at some other resorts that are cheaper or are AI, but to be honest we can't imagine going anywhere else but the Hilton. I hope this helps a little bit. Good luck in your search!

I've seen some of their cakes. I am going with Cabo Dessert Diva. I liked her style a little more.

I'm sooo glad you posted this! I haven't heard of "real touch" flowers until your post. I was going to get eal flowers and then have them freeze dried. (if anyone checked into that, it is about 700+ usd) and I was pretty sure I would have issues getting the flowers to the place to have them freeze dried. And they charged you if you needed to have any of the flowers replaced. So I have decided to do the real touch flowers. I wasn't able to get in touch with the lady you used, but I found another lady (designsbyjan) The price was AMAZING! It is gonna cost about 250 before shipping on the wedding bouquets, and I haven't recieved a quote on the reception bouquets yet. Thank you so much for posting this!!! you have saved me about 5000 migraines and 5000 dollars. lol You're a life saver!

I think orange would be beautiful. I'm doing the orange flame callas, as well as champagne colored callas. And my dress is a deep champagne color.

Hey I will take the other 2 polka dot bags, so the other girl can have third the one. Also if you will separate I would like 3 of the lotions and 3 body sprays. And are the towels turquoise or a true blue color? thanks

okay so I have talked it over with the luckiest man in the world (the fiance.) lol. and he liked the idea. We have decided to do the wedding in the champagne and black. And do a quick change in outfits to go along with the turquoise and pink reception theme. thanks for your input everyone!
