I know where hondon is, it´s about 30mins from where i live! How very bizarre! Let me know if you come out, we can have a sneaky sangria! Ha!! Small world! Glad I asked now about your flight! God we'll take up a fair share of the flight! wonder how many other brides will be on that fight too! Thats hilarious! And if I make it over to spain I sure would like a sneaky wee sangria! at this rate we'll end up in the same airport hotel too!! Have you been to mexico before? Do you ever venture into hondon? As far as I know there isn't much to the town really but think my MOH is working in one of the restaurant/bars the now to get by while she's visiting! Jodie.xx

woodsylou : Congrats on dropping a bmi category! Thats a great achievement! And thankyou for the advice on the invites! Think I will go with the original choice! They will be more us! yup I've counted in a few extra to keep! Your planning thread is great and I love all your stuff!! your so creative! well done!! And no wonder you cant sit still!!! I cant wait to be that close and excited!! There will be huge sighs of relief when i finally get my butt on the seat of the plane! Im so excited for you! JOSIE : It really is shocking how much they spend on weddings! $70,000....I couldn't believe it!! Some of them are amazing though! I love all the little extra touches! Joanna: It's a pitty we are getting married in different resorts!! However we fly out n the 5th of January too!! are you flying into cancun? we might be on the same flight! We're heading to manchester on the 4th and staying the night and taking the night before check in because it takes away so much stress, used that facility the last 2 years in a row and it's well worth it! Who are u flying with? We're booked thru FC and flying with Thomsons. Ther will be 16 of the 24 of our group going on that flight! Ha would be great to say hello! And just another strange coincidence! I mentioned my MOH is out in spain the now, also near alicante! I don't know the exact spelling of the town but sounds like 'Hon don'?! My work is closing down for a refit soon so if I have time and funds think I'm gonna hop on a flight and go visit her for a day or two! Just surprise her and show up! She stays out there 3/4 months at a time then comes back here, her family moved out there a few years back. Nicy : Aw I cant believe we are at 6 months already! we started or countdown at 18 months!! Aw 9 years congrats!! Kerry : Thats a fab idea doing a surprise party for FI!! I agree invite everyone!! haha!! you'll fill that hall up no problem!! I hope you have a blast and everything will be organized before you know it!! Jodie.xx P.s can someone please tell me how to use MQ as I obv dont know how to!!

Go with Island princess!!! Your stuff is fab and I think it is amazing for you to be opening your own online store!! You are very creative!! Good luck!! Jodie.xx
