the dresses all look great, but I love Dress #2. I think you look great in a halter! I'm not sure what else you've tried on but that dress is by far my favorite!!! LOOKS FAB.

Does anyone know if I have to contact an officiant on my own? or does the resort do this for me? they told me they didnt' know who it would be!

1 hour step class!

Oh I love that dress. Mine isn't beachy at all but I got it anyway because I loved it : ) If that is a dress you love... It's perfect for the beach!

I don't mean to sound tight or stingy when it comes to doing little extras for my guests, but this is mainly the reason for my wedding get away. I love the fact that you all have the knack for this, and really wish I did. I stress so easily and over think things. So really I'm trying to eliminate some stress for my FI. I guess I'm asking for someone to tell me it's okay not to go all out?!? I'm going simple also. We have 7 family members 3 with photography and US.... : ) I'm not having a reception, I didn't have invites, and I'm not having a AHR. I did make some small oot bags. Just a few things in them. I also did rafia fans because it will be hot, and welcome letter. Thats about it. Other then chair sashes and a few decorations. I'm going simple. My thoughts about weddings is that they are all about what you want your day to be. Not what anyone else thinks : ) So if you want your day and planning to be stress free, make it simple... thats what I'm doing! : ) Good luck planning! : )

They turned out great! I love picture with railroad tracks

Pulled pork sandwiches and a salad. YUM.. put the pork in the crockpot with a pork mix and after several hours... YUM YUM it was done. I love easy cooking!

Wow awesome thread. I only had two songs for the ceremony.( one for when I was walking in and when we were walking out. I better think of another for my bridesmaids at least. This really helped me to think of some others.. : )

I would go Monday and if they aren't done... take them and leave. Find someone else!

I'm having trouble finding earrings at a reasonable price. I would love to see your earrings. Please post a picture of your earrings and where you purchased them. Thanks!! : )

Wow Everything looks great! What a wonderful job planning. I hope your day is perfect!

YOur date is coming up very soon, WELCOME

If you don't want gifts, don't advertise where you are registered. maybe you could only tell people who ask. : ) Just a thought. If you don't register, you may get things that don't need and can't return. That we be a waste for the people who purchased them.

zumba for 1 hour and I cut the grass with a push mower.. (1 hour) does that count?

I'm so sorry to hear about your loss. Please hang in there. Missing him won't get any better but it will get easier to cope with. I"m thinking of you and your family during this difficult time

Lisa I was thinking about it I would need to know the size of the tables, round or square, or rectangle. This also means I would probably need to know what restaurant I would go to .. Oh goodness, that is probably more than what I can know until I get there : ) I'm probably not taking them because of all of the things I would need to know prior to arriving. Just my thought. : )

So cute. I was thinking about doing something similar. Looks great

I like both dresses, but I would need to see either you in the dresses or just a picture of you may also be helpful. Different body types look different in different styles

I think it sounds like a great idea

WOW everything looked beautiful. The pictures look great. I can't imagine how great they look in high res I wasn't able to open the video
