I agree.. Im going to do a Legal ceremony in DR and then have Legal ceremony here in NY as well....Silly to some but it does'nt matter to me or FI.. I want it to Be real and feel real... I will remarry on 01/10/11 which is the anniversary of when we started dating... It will just be 2 months after our DW...

Your Hollywood Glam Wedding in MD is gonna rock! and Im sure you can still use tons of ideas from the forum to make it Super Hawt!! Love it and Enjoy!

Whats cheaper? (joke)

I got it on a Saturday and left on Sunday for Mexico, the wedding was the following Saturday. It did the blue wax. It was horrible. It basically left bloody holes that stayed for several days down there. The armpits weren't too irritated. Then it started growing back within about 5 days. I had to shave under my arms by Thursday and down there by Wednesday. I had more than 10 days growth under the arms and WAAAAY more down there. When it started growing back in I had terrible ingrown hairs. I am very prone to these anyway but having them in your bikini line and having them EVERYWHERE is very different. I did everything they told me, exfoliate, use a calming lotion...... I used pumice cleanser, glycolic acid, hydrocortisone cream, neosporin, bikini zone. Basically everything I could find. I was so embarassed by the mess below I didn't even want to consumate the marriage on the honeymoon! A good friend of mine said she always had problems with ingrown hairs when waxing so now she gets laser hair removal. Way more painful process but no irritation after. Moral of the story, don't try it right before your wedding and if you are prone to irritation and ingrown hairs, waxing is not going to improve that. And if you are a hairy sascquach like me, don't expect it to last weeks or even one week. LOL.. thats all... And sidebar...I still plan on trying waxing once....Just to say Ive done it... " hairy sadcquach"...ROTFL... U girls are silly on here...Love it!

I think it will work either way...because it can be a keepsake for when they are leaving the resort to put on their bags or can be given before hand with the Brochure or any Pre travel gifts/items...I am thinking about doing Luggage tags as well but I am giving them in the welcome (OOT) bags when they arrive at the resort.

I will def. be trying this out...Did you get the hole puncher @ staples also?

aboard Cyara! soooo happy to hear your Soldier will be home soon...

Yeah they can be, I wanted to use silk Lily's for my Engagement party centerpieces to submerge in water with the floating candle (realy cute) went to michaels and they were $6 a stem...I ended up using real Lily's but I am in the same boat with you for my DW centerpieces...I want to use silk flowers but not sure I want to spend a whole lot...but the good thing is that I only had to use one full bloom LiLy and it looked great so depending on how many center pieces you are doing...it may not be that bad and the LOOK SOOO REAL! good luck and let me know what the outcome (price wise) if they have them at michaels...

Congrats Sarah! and good luck with the house...
