Hello Ladies.......Soo...Three months to go and I feel like NOTHING IS DONE! I have my dress, I have the rings, I have venue, I have my photog (HDC), I have most of the stuff for OOT bags, I have some decor that I will be bringing, I just bought Fi's suit last weekend (which looks sooo god on him might I add ), sent STD's, sent Invites, got some RSVP's but many stragglers which is annoying... and also last week I found out that I AM PREGNANT!!!! I am super excited but Now I feel like everything has shifted to my new exciting baby news....PLUS I decided to try on my dress of which I knew was a little snug ( because I lost weight, then gained it back) but apparently I gained a little more so Now I will have to get my dress let out a few because by the time of the wedding I will be a lil over 4 Months!! OMG.... I am tired and I dont know what to do....I actually just want it to be over.... Am I the only one who actually doesnt enjoy planning...But knows it has to be done?....

Hello All! ii think I may be the next DPB-er...Im getting married there in 3 months!!! OMG! exciting...I will try my best to take notes and lots of Pics and such! Wish me luck!

Hey D! just wanted to say Congrats!!! and Happy Wedding Day!!

And to answer your question, she is 2 years older than me, and I think you called it right on the jealousy thing, but I'm not even going to launch into that drama right now! And I LOVE that YOUR sister is soooo there for you, newborn baby and all -- if anyone is jealous here, it's me that you have that type of unconditionally supportive, touching relationship with your sister! Lucky girl! Oh, and although it may seem a little desperate, I am planning to contact those that we haven't received their reply yet over the course of the next week before I have to turn in my final numbers to the venue on 7/29, so I am hoping there are a few more stragglers that will be coming after all, too! And if not, SCREW EM, right?! I'll just be like, "Hey, where's my drink?" all stumbling around, and screaming, "And turn up that damn 'Funky Chicken' already!" LOL! HOLLA!!! Girl when there's drinks and good music involved..There's always a way to turn a frown upside down and have a Good ole' time! and I think its a good idea to call. Its not desperate at all! Its being Efficient!

Are you flippin Kidding me?! is she an older sis or younger? And a 13 year olds party? seriously?! U gotta be kiddin me?! she has her Loyalty all screwed up! " Once in a lifetime" ? Oh please...I dunno...I have a sense of Jealously coming from her.....It may just be me but she is doing alot of BS in regards to YOUR special events! Your Only SIs at that? all I have to say is MY ONLY sister knows better...although it may seem a little bridezilla ish...She is supposed to drop everything and be there for you...I mean although my sis is GIVING BIRTH in the next few weeks...she is very active in my planning needs and fully intends on bringing her NEWBORN to DR for HER ONLY sister's wedding.....Don't know where she will find the time/money but if all goes well with the baby, she said she is on the next flight out! although if she dosen't Ill absolutely understand because there are some things you have no control over... But YOUR dearest SIS... I tell ya...she is a mess! all I know is she needs to be at that Reception if she know's what's good for her!! Im sure it will all work out in the end, but im More sure that you will be glad when it is all over. U still have some time for Late RSVP'ers...But whats done is done and Just try and Enjoy it...Get drunk and bust out in the Funky chicken!

and Congrats...I think Just the two is Just perfect for a DW! How romantic!

I feel your pain/annoyance.. That's exactly why I scrapped the AHR..I feel as though I will be putting alot of money and effort into it an I wont even get to enjoy it....I think it sux that these people are dragging their feet on this one. Its alot for you to even think about (planning/coordinating) & inviting people to share in this special time of your life and they cant even respond?! so what you are already married! the point is that you want to do something so everyone can enjoy and show their love and support. I mean its a flipping party! who doesn't like to party!?...FOR FREE! its not like you are asking them to contribute...Selfishness is one of those things that I cant get used to.... And I don't want to even start on your SIS! did she come to the wedding?

We have had a VERY stressful last month with wedding planning and yet everytime something goes wrong, we are in it together, just him and I against the world... Even when we were dating and knew we wanted to get engaged, we never felt the level of devotion that we now feel when our families are giving us hell, or everything is going wrong. It is an unspoken bond between us that is now there since we got engaged. This whole experience has affirmed, and reaffirmed a million times over that I am marrying my best friend in the entire world, the one who will be with me through anything and everything and stand by me at all times. He has been amazing and I know there are so many of us that get caught up in all the wedding details we tend to overlook that wonderful man sitting across the couch from us or waking up next to us each morning. Girls, we are the lucky ones. To have found our life partners, and to be comitting our lives to these people that we are deeply connected with. Many people are not that lucky in life, and we are. Just thought I'd take a second away from the craziness... (*sniffling*) I almost cried reading this one...because I was actually thinking the same thing just Today! We are the Lucky Ones and I make sure I tell My beloved as often as I can that I heart Him and they we are a team, with that being said we can conquer all....Although we are consumed in wedding stuff and life stuff, I know that I am not alone and I def. feel I am lucky to have my soulmate right by my side...looking over at me through the glare of the computer screen (im a BDW Junkie) lol.

I think it will totally be FUN! I also want a really small " Intimate " wedding, I think only about 15-20 ppl are coming to mine as well and Im totally fine with that because I really want it to be about Me and FI, No planned activities (except a welcome dinner/Breakfast and a Halloween costume party at the disco the night before our wedding...) I initially wanted a big wedding Home but I thought about the costs, and the fact that I wont really get to enjoy it because Knowing me, I will be doing alot of meet/greet/entertaining....NOT FuN! As long as your close family (Mom, Granny, etc.) are there, that is all that really matters I think. And it will leave more time for you and FI to enjoy your weddingmoon! So no worries, it will be great!

I was wondering the same thing...I wanted to ship some stuff but im afraid it will get broken, but still Ive seen the way they handle luggage at these airlines so it may still get broken!...I may ask my mom or some other relatives to help bring some stuff down for me....

Thanks! For some reason I dont think they come bigger than an 8.....I needed a 9 but I bought the 8 anyways cause my dress will cover them....LOL..my heel is right on the edge... P.S. Thats why I havent really thought about wearing them before the wedding because I think people will notice they are almost too small..LOL>..

What are you all doing to get in shape? Are you just hitting the gym or using trainers?? I was considering doing the P90x but I think a live person might be more effective... Tried p90x...It work's but it is sooo hard to stay with it, I abandoned it after 2 months..Lost 15 lbs but...after I stopped, gained it all plus 3 back!! smh...

Good Luck! I envy you for staying with it..Hey, he loves me curves and all...Oh well, I just figured loosing a few would be a bonus.... :-(

Love Love Love them! I also love how close they were able to get with the natural surroundings...The ants were sooo cute!!

OMG! congrats! It will be such a special reunion. This will truly be a day/time you will never forget! Have a wonderful Wedding!

Awesome Job! they are perfect!
