Congrats and welcome to the forum. I can't help you much with your destination but I hope you find what you're looking for the search tool can sometimes bring everything right to your fingertips. I hope you find what you are looking for...good luck and happy planning!

Congrats and welcome to the forum. Sorry to hear about your grandmother's passing but hopefully your wedding will be a cause for the family to reconnect and celebrate and of course she will be there in spirit. Happy planning!

Is there any way for the two of your to compromise on something like say perhaps tea length instead. I went shopping with my FMIL but had no requirements as to what she wore I did however ask if she would mind me paying for her to have her makeup done for our wedding. She generally doesn't wear much makeup but I do want everyone to look great in the pics so just for our wedding day she has agreed to let the makeup artist put something on that looks light and natural. Â

Do you plan on having any sort of welcome dinner or cocktails with all of your guests. Some ladies opt to give their bags out at their welcome dinner/cocktail hour since it is the one time that they will have all of their guests together other than at the wedding ceremony itself. Good luck! Â

So good to read this I have been a member for so long and didn't know that each member has their own blog. Thanks!!!

Mgslave I created it right on Vistaprints website. Simple easy and fast!

Awww, thanks ladies!!!!

Hi Jennimai, welcome to the forum. In terms of the resorts I can't suggest one from the other but I do know that under our vendors section you may be able to connect with a TA that can serve your needs there. Good luck and happy planning!

Hi ManTy congrats and welcome to the forum. Have your tried calling the resort and asking to be put in touch with the on-site WC? Or perhaps you can look on their website and there will be an email address to contact them. Try locking in your date first, that always helps so that you can make sure it is available and so that you can ask the WC any questions you may have right now. Good luck getting in touch with them and happy planning!

 Congrats and welcome to the forum. You'll find alot of useful info for the planning of your DW. The more time that you are able to give your guests and family to plan is always good. Some ladies start planning 2 years or a year out some start planning 4 months out. I don't think you're too early at all, so dive on in. Good luck and happy planning!

Congrats and welcome to the forum. You'll find alot of useful info for the planning of your DW. Good luck and happy planning!

The underwater pic rocks!! And I love the way your shoes came out...such a great contrast color against all the rest. Can't wait to see more. Congrats!

Thanks Mistibuard! It was so super easy to make and best of all I got to incorporate my colors, my monogram and it was all FREE!!!!!!

Great job and thanks for sharing so other ladies can use.

Once again Vistaprint to the rescue....I used Vistaprint for my welcome cards which I will be attaching to all of the OOT bags and so I decided why not use them for my pre-travel brochures.....I really like the way they turned out. I love how they turned out!! Sorry the pics may look a bit blurry.....thats my shakey hands.....lol! Â Â Â

My vote is in....good luck everyone!!!!

Boo I totally understand you feeling blah. Welcome to my club I have been feeling blah for the last month or so.....just too much stress from everyone. I am literally ready to just show up......thats it! Not to plan any more nothing just show up. MysTea knows some of my hell. Anyway, within the last day or two I have decided to just pull myself together. No one or thing is going to spoil this for me. I deserve to be happy right now planning and I am not going to let overbearing family or nonchalant friends rain on my parade. Every time someone tries to annoy me I just say "listen I have to go I have too much stuff to do". In fact my mom recently said "I haven't even had a chance to tell you how I feel about everything and some things I think you should change". I very flatly replied in my sweetest voice "yes I know I am so sorry I have just been so bombarded by 39 other people sharing what they think I should do too....I promise I will call you tonight and we will talk all about it". I think she was so taken a back and didn't realize just how much everyone puts in their piece that by the time I called her back she had nothing to say.....which is great cause we are paying for our own wedding. Boo your wedding should be the happiest time of your life. DO NOT LET ANYONE STEAL YOUR JOY!!!! CAUSE YOU DON'T GET IT BACK!! Ignore the outside forces (if it is ppl talking in your ear...if its deeper than that, well I hope you guys can work through it and sit back and enjoy some part of the planning process). PM me if you ever need to talk girl, we are all here to support each other. Giraffexx I recently got into to running. I run probably only twice a week. Usually I bike ride on evenings then hit the gym (except Tuesdays when I bike ride then head to yoga). Never tried pilates though I think next year I will take it up. I've heard its fun. Mimi73 what color did you dye your hair? MysTea.....Whatup shawty???/ LOL! Hugs and Kisses! Â NOW EVERYONE GET GOIN'!

Krys I didn't realize that you and Andy owned Tropical Imaging. In fact I didn't even realize when you have said Andy in your posts in the past you were referring to Andy TI Andy......lol! Its like a light bulb just went on. Talk about bridal fog.

Lol! I love it "Now get going"! I went for a bike ride today. Usually I walk to the gym but this FL heat is killing me. Tomorrow I will hit the gym. Tonight I am gonna do a few laps in the pool. I have started to switch up what I am doing cause I have hit a wall with my weight gain and I think its cause I need to change up my routine from just lifting heavy weights. I'm at 108.....4 more lbs to go!!!

I have my programs done on the computer but not actually printed up yet. I haven't done my menus yet. MysTea you could have been chillin with me sippin on margaritas...well I would do the sippin, you could eat some quesadillas and we would be having a ball. I feel your pain with the WC though. Mine set up a phone meeting with me for today...never called, didn't answer my email to her and is again MIA!

Good job Brandy!

Excellence Playa Mujeres is the only one I have been to but I loved the fact that it was secluded (like literally you go through like 3 or 4 gates before you get to it) but the property is well kept, we loved the restaurants and the stuff to do....although most days I just lounged all day in the lazy river. The beds were so large and oversized and the staff was friendly.

Happy planning and good luck....welcome!

Welcome to the forum, you'll find lots of great info here. Happy planning!
