I really like the way it looks on you and my theory is it is the one day you get to wear WHATEVER you want beachy or no beachy If you love it GO FOR IT!

You look great in all of them but I like #4!

Congrats!!!! Your going to love this forum! Happy Planning!!! We are leaning towards Azul Sensatori in Mexico! Check it out

Ladies - From the US I have a quote of $1100 for Airfare and 5 days/4nights in Cancun Hope that helps!

I was a tad torn between my step-dad out of obigation or my brother. Ultimately I picked my little brother (Not so little 28 years old and 6'3") and I am very happy with it. I think it's perfectly fine as well to walk by yourself and own it Good luck!

AWESOME Review! Your looked so pretty!

Just checking in on the Houston ladies I know Leigh is off getting married this weekend but how is everyone else? I am still in resort limbo between Azul Sensatori and The Royal Cancun. Hoping to have the damn thing done by July 15th !

CONGRATS and go have the time of your life!!!

Meredith - Did you see your up for Member of the Month?

Since we are doing AS for the wedding, I thought it would be fun to go back to one of the adult only places if we return. I have taken 2 of their webinars and they are great

Welcome! I am hoping to close my deal with AS for a May 30th wedding soon. See you over on the AS thread! CONGRATS

Lately I have nothing of substance to talk about unless it involves the wedding (sad, I know). But now I have you ladies for reference. I may mention one of you and what you're doing and my MOH is like, "who are you talking about, you're new friends?" It's kinda hilarious. I talk about you guys all the time. Everyone is confused and thinks you guys are all in Houston and that I talk face to face with you. I have to explain in's on the forum. My FI finally realizes that being on the form makes me calm and happy so I leave him to his video games and he leaves me to the forum. It's a great arrangement.

Too bad she's been talking about what she's gonna do for 60 for the past 2 years. So, I, in no way wanted my wedding to interfere with that. I got sick of fussing about it so the cruise is officially off. I still tried to look into keeping my site visit appointment but flights are more expensive than I expected. Sorry to hear that

We've sent out our save-the-dates and I have my dress and that's about all we've done so far. We're planning on a beach wedding at 5, dinner/reception at 6 with DJ or iPod and having Caribe as photographers. I'm excited that there's so much information in this thread-- I feel like I have real support here and it's great not to feel alone (or crazy!). Thanks again for allowing me and everyone hear to share in the fun and not-so-fun of planning your celebrations. I look forward to learning more about you and your big day! Welcome! I know it seems like it will take forever to catch up but i learned so much from reading from the beginning! It was super helpful! WELCOME!!!

Amy, Just looked at the Photos on your photographers Facebook! AWESOME and so Vintage and Vegas! WELL DONE

I am deciding between Azul Sensatori and The Royal Cancun! If Mexico is on your list! Welcome and Congrats!!!

I just have to rely on all the reviews and info I've found on this forum I am not doing a site check either but this forum makes me feel SUPER confident in my choice!

The moment of laughter and ring confusion in the middle is this... BM had both rings, MOH was freaking out because she didn't have ring so when I turned to hand over my flowers, she is laughing and red and pulls off her engagement/wedding band and hands it to me and I'm like what are you doing? She goes "I don't have his ring!!!" Good times Send it over! [email protected]

Our travel agent, The Wedding holiday, was super nice and got us a private cocktail reception (not at our expense) so that was a lovely surprise when we met with the wedding coordinators today. I will keep you updated as to how everything goes...I am in my room as I have had a little too much to drin'k!! lol it is my bedtime. . Sending awesome thoughts your way that that pesky storm passes and you guys have AWESOME WEATHER!!!

Congrats and happy planning! You are going to love this forum
