Cherazi, where did you have your make up trial? I want to do one at MAC next week. I had my BD shoot this past Saturday. It was a lot of fun. Not sure how my pics will turn out since I think my "sexy" face looks ridiculous! Ha ha

Hey girls, Teira, I love your table decor! Looks awesome! Meggers, your gonna rock that shoot, sick or not! I had mine this past Saturday, and I know once I get the book I'm gonna want to give it to him! I have a feeling he knows something. He's a detective so I can't seem to hide anything from him, especially since I'm an awful awful liar! Brandy, can't believe you only have 16 days. That is sooo exciting! I still haven't gotten into the planning again, so I really need to get on it! Tris, that was so sweet of your fiance. All those little things that just make it "real" are so exciting! I picked up our marriage license and got all giddy!! )

Your pictures are beautiful! Congratulations!

Your cake is beautiful Brandy!! Glad you had a great shower!

Beautiful dresses girls! Love the ruffly allure!!

Meggers, sorry to hear that your family is driving you bonkers! That would irritate me too! And wasn't it you who was getting hair extensions put in last night? How did that go? Do you have any pics? I wish I could afford real hair extensions!

Awe, that's awesome!! It's always great when people notice the changes. It's sometimes hard for us to see them ourselves since we look at ourselves each and every day!

Ha ha, not stupid at all! It's a boudoir shoot, the ones where you dress in lingerie (a gift for fiance). )

Hey girls, I do my BD shoot this coming Saturday! I'm very nervous about it. Hope all goes well!

Okay, trying to play catch up here!! Chapa, yes, I included a dinner for the photographers in my final numbers.

Could you maybe do an hour and a half for pictures or does it have to be either 1 hour or 2? If you're only getting pics of the two of you as a couple, I would probably want to explore the resort and get a whole bunch of unique shots. So, that may take a little bit longer. I have a site through Shutterfly that I set up it. It's actually really cute. Well, your comment didn't post Marla, but I too have a little black and white dog who would be perfect for the wedding! I so want to pack him in my suitcase. I don't know what I'm going to do without my little baby for a week and a half!!! Like Maggie said, you could have friends take some photos before (and just set up some things like a photographer would). Do you want pics of the reception? I'm guessing you could probably get away with 5-6 hours which I know is still pricey. If you don't need any pics at the reception, you could go less but I'm not sure how you feel about that. Good luck deciding!!

Awe, thanks so much girls! It means so much to hear your kind words b/c I was so worried about this dress. I didn't love it, but now I think it's beautiful, and I can't wait to get married in it!! )

Here's my dress at the latest fitting. I chopped my face off since I realized my pics pop up when I do searches for my resort. Eeek! Don't mind the bump on the right side. We found out that was because we hadn't tucked the tie string all the way down.

Sorry, guess I should have clarified... I was asking if you're marrying on the beach, or another location? I would think if you are marrying on the beach, the later time would be better as people will have headed in for dinner and such.

I've heard that Azul Fives is great. I know there's a thread on here for them, and I saw pics from a wedding there and it was very nice. Have you checked a few different avenues for room availability?

What location are you getting married at dlarocqu?

Hey girls, Just dropping in. I don't post here too often (mostly b/c I can't keep up, ha ha) but I love keeping up on all your progress. You all are doing great. I feel like such a non-bride lately as I haven't done much, but I guess I better get on the ball! Tris, congrats on winning the gift card from BDW!! That's awesome, and you look beautiful in your dress!! Lisa, congrats on the weight loss! Keep up the good work! Michele, yay for the shower fun! Hope to be able to see your dresses online soon! Brandy, those dresses are just too cute!! ) Not much longer! Well, for my one and only status update, I had my second fitting and I do love my dress again. The dress I actually got in from the shoppe ended up looking nothing like the sample dress I tried on. But, the seamstress has saved the day! She made it more fitted through the thighs like I wanted and made it more of a sweetheart neckline. Totally transformed the dress!! I love it!

Hey girls, So, I had my second fitting today and I now LOVE my dress again! Many of you know that I ordered the same size as the sample I tried on, but the dress I actually received was bigger and looked completely different. I had some alterations done, and it is now perfect for me. ) I can't wait to wear it in 2 months!!

To the girls who have been to the resort, what items are included in your rooms, like shampoo, conditioner, hair dryer, etc? I started buying some stuff last night and wasn't sure what all I would need.

Awe, you guys look great!! Can't wait to see more. Thanks girls! I love it too!

Thanks girls. I'm sure it will be fine. As we get closer, I am finding that I am worried less and less about all the little details. Guess I'm not as "bride" oriented as I thought I would be. I think just the fact that our families and our closest friends will all be vacationing together is going to make it wonderful. Less is more, do you have any family pics? I'm so anxious to see!! Oh, and how far was Azul Beach from AS? How did you get back and forth?

Hey girls, Just writing to check in. Some of us are getting close! I don't know about you but I feel very unprepared. I feel like I have a ton of stuff to do still. I go this weekend for my second fitting and I'm a little nervous b/c I lost about 5 or 6 pounds. My fiance picked out the guys clothing. I'm not sure it meshes perfectly with what my girls are wearing, but I am not gonna make him change it. My girls are in turquoise (more greenish) colored dresses. FI is wearing a tan suit with a blue/white striped shirt (the blue is more sky blue than turquoise, and the groomsman are wearing white linen pants and tan short sleeved button down shirts. My dad who is walking me down the aisle is wearing khaki colored linen pants and a blue (this one more of a dark blue) but it is the same style shirt as the groomsmans tan one. I hope it all looks alright together but I'm a little nervous. I guess my dad doesn't have to match perfectly, and FI's shirt won't really show too much in pics. So, we should be good. I have my boudoir shoot next Saturday. I'm excited and nervous!! Hope everyone's planning is going well!!

Miriam, how did the little lights in your paper lanterns work out? I have just the flameless candles to toss in there, but there are holes at either end. Do they hang them from both ends so the light stays put, or how does that work?

http://www.mixbook.com/photo-books/wedding/wedding-guestbook-5175989 This link should take you to my guestbook if you all would like to see. It looks great in person! The words throughout the book are the lyrics to our first song!

Oh, and I ordered my guestbook from mixbook, and I absolutely love it!! I need to take some pics so I can share. It turned out fabulous!

Hey girls, So, I had my first shower yesterday, and it turned out great!! And I have a question and it may be a stupid one!! Lol. I have the paper lanterns, and I had bought the flameless candles to light them up. How do you get them to stay in there? There's holes on the top and bottom of the lantern!!
