I'm glad that you feel better about your contract. A one night stay made FI & I feel comfortable since many Miami coords go back and forth about day passes. We felt it best to factor in the cost now than to be surprised later. q As far as Marvin, he has been doing this for quite sometime and the reason that I felt comfortable with choosing him versus taking our own flowers which also proved expensive (going the real touch route). With someone in your wedding party meeting him, I feel that MP can't even begin to get into this one. But we all feel different ways about certain aspects of our wedding. I too love love love love Del Sol but as you stated they too are out of our price range. But I absolutely love our house which marks our 5th month in.... ;-) Have a great weekend

If you are talking about Power 90 yes, I brought bought and started with Power 90 as a way to prepare for P90x. It is a great starting but a little boring (love the ab section). So I quickly moved to Jillian's 30 day shred and Zumba love love love Zumba.

Congrats and Way to go!!!!! I'm holding steady at my 10 pound weight loss. Just toning and maintaining my loss.

PUCCA, Stay on that "soap box" because you made absolute perfect sense. And for the bride that is having a hard time or otherwise choose not to loose weight, this is what they needed to hear. Let's raise a glass of red wine to health awareness!

Hey Ladies, Michaels is having a crazy sell....20%off of your entire purchase (including sale items) these coupons did not appear on my app but on the michaels website itself and are date and time specific. Upon check out you will receive (State specific maybe) another coupon for 40%off a regular priced item which is good until the 24th. Since they only allow you to use one coupon at a time... I went right back into the store and used my app for 50% off a regular priced item yay... Had to buy a new cutter (while replacement is being worked on) and it only cost $21 buck... Gotta love Michaels

Krsmith, Initially that happened to me as well but I would email him again and make sure your subject line is clear (just in case SPAM) comes into play.

krsmith thanks so very much for your kind words....I am so so so exicted and equally glad that Friday is here so that I can mail these babies off. I need to run over to Target to finish our registry really quick (we added this at the request of some guest who were not going but wanted to get us a gift.) On page 6 I listed we were registered at Bed Bath & Beyond and Target so I need to finish that up. Rebecca does great work as well and I know that you are excited too. YAY ladies on the move. Marvin is doing our flowers as well ;-) What are you doing for centerpieces?

We are booking our photog a room. We choose this route as our TTD is early am the next day and our photog is taking us, so it just worked out better with getting him a room. For us (before smile market) onsite photography wasn't an option.

Thanks so much leenancy and I agree with what bondgirl0772010 stated about using these in a different way. We choose to use the passport as our invite as a fun reminder for people to get their passports so for us it serves a dual purpose.

I''m having my photog stay the night, he is a guest of the wedding party so no questions. I'm not sure how others worked out for the day pass but, it seems that MP has become more strict with allowing vendors but charging a hefty fee. Since our TTD is early the next morning and we are being provided transportation for it, we simply made it easier for all involved.

Muchas Gracias mrsjdh2b ;-)

Chelsea, Thank you sooooooo very much. This means the world coming from you....Big hugs from PA Gonzalo, Thanks a bunch bunch bunch. BTW, I just referered someone your way (another Philly Bride;-) She needs a photog for 4/21/12. Yvette if you are viewing don't forget to reach out. Boy I love this site. TeeHee

leenancy, Venando (per my Moon Palace on site contact) is between both the Tucan Gazebo and Caribbean Terrace. "it helps everyone locate the carribean terrace because they are able to see it from the Venando Terrace" So, it is leading them on their way.

ndvidul, Thanks so much on the compliments I really appreciate it. I can't wait to mail these bad boys -) We are praying that we get at least 7 more rooms booked for the unlimited events. We are 19 strong (including FI & I) not counting the guest that booked via travelocity. I'm claiming the unlimited events (not that we are going to add more on) but the fact that we would only have to pay for set-up versus the $400 per table. Happy Planning my Bridal Family

Thanks so much beatyea. I'm going to send you a PM

Simply Amazing! Your daughter is one lucky lady to have a talented Mom. Everything is stunning to say the least.

Thanks so very much. Just Paying it forward as other brides have. ;-) I have to pick up some regular stamps for the reply card tomorrow, so with that we will be able to get these in the mail on Saturday ;-) Thanks so much FutureMrsHammer

Drum roll please....with a little After having technical difficulties with trying to re-size the photos with my camera I decided to take the pictures with my phone (my apologies for the quality as these photos do not do the passports justice). Sarah from Sproullie Designs is absolutely amazing and captured Derick's and I vision in our STDs. These invites are an extension of our vision and we are so elated. You can view our STDS at http://www.etsy.com/listing/78651352/deposit-boarding-pass-invitation-or-save?ref=sr_gallery_22&ga_search_submit=&ga_search_query=sproullie+designs&ga_view_type=gallery&ga_ship_to=US&ga_page=1&ga_search_type=handmade&ga_facet=handmade. So without further ado, here are our Amazing Passport Invites: Addressed Envelope with our custom stamp from Zazzle Front/Back of Passports FI Signing his name to page 2 Page 1 and 2 Page 3 and 4 page 5 and 6

Thanks so much Chelsea ;-)

Uggghhhh darn pictures are gigantic and has taken a month and forever to try to load. I'll revisit tomorrow after I work on resizing ;-() However; to get an idea of what's to come check out our STD on Etsy: http://www.etsy.com/listing/78651352/deposit-boarding-pass-invitation-or-save?ref=sr_gallery_22&ga_search_submit=&ga_search_query=sproullie+designs&ga_view_type=gallery&ga_ship_to=US&ga_page=1&ga_search_type=handmade&ga_facet=handmade Talk to you gals soon

I have worked with Sarah for our STDs and during that time already set my date for invites. We contacted each other and that was that.. I wanted to change a few things even before she started so she would confirm receipt of my email and that was that. She is so awesome and had our vision down to a SCIENCE so I didn't bother her. As it drew near I gave a shot and received my draft... Invites were printed and received them today...

Ladies, My invites created by the famous Sarah Sproullie Designs came in today. After doing homework with the little man, I will definitely post. So exciting. These babies will go out by Monday ;-) Yahoooooooo

There's not a lot of wiggle room. i.e. some try to get the outside vendor line deleted (some to no avail and others success). However; if it is your group contract definitely the room nights and days perks.

Contact your Miami Coordinator, a lot of times your date is approved but they are waiting for the officiant/judge whatever to see if they can do it.
