  6. wow michelle your nails look fab!! Gutted for you about loosing your wedding stuff but think positive you wil have a new collection soon of your 'actual wedding' and all the planning will still have been worth it to make it such an amazing day! (im sure most of it is in your head anyway if your anything like me, its all im thinking about!!) My wedding diet is not going well at all, so dont worry about not spending as much time exercising as you would have liked to, i have been exersizing soooo much and its not made that much diff to my weight, im gutted!! still got 7 weeks to go so fingers crossed something might change between now and then! x
  7. Hey ladies, great news, my travel agent seems to be making some progress with our booking agent after me telling her about some of the discounts/free stuff some of you on here have managed to negotiate. At the minute brides from the uk get nothing!! And as you can imagine with me coming on here and hearing about free cocktail hours and discounted rooms that you lovely american and canadian brides are lucky enough to have got I have been trying to get something sorted for us uk brides!! So if you get a spare minute to drop me an email to [email protected] with any discounts you have had, even something small, it all helps!! I will pass them on and see if we can get them to budge on the nothing free to at least something!! Thanks in advance for your help, will keep you updated with my progress!! xx

Not sure who made the personalised vest tops, but they are lovely., how thoughtful, may have to make some of my own.............i love making stuff too, just need to find the time.............. hope your all having a good week, should we start our own wedding day count down?? lets get dates and put it all together so we can spurt each other on!!x
  21. Hi Ladies, Well i have been reading through your post and all your progress is sooo good, its making me really want to crack on with things!! MIL stories are terrible, mine is lovely...........well for now at least ha ha I get married 9th June at the sensatori,Mexico - 16 weeks tomorrow ahhhhh! 23 of us going on the 6th June............most staying for full 2 weeks- will have to find hiding spots ha ha I have my dress, i had a bit of a nightmare but i wont go into detail-dont want to scare anyone who hasnt picked there's up yet!but its alll sorted now and i have my dress!! Im off bridesmaid shopping this weekend, i really want coral dresses..............if anyone has spotted any on their travels let me know!! Ermm on the planning front, i havent decided on flowers, or what meal were having for reception.........but have selected time, where ceremony is being held and where were having reception. Im not having a dj as it was soooo expensive through the resort, so im taking my ipod and hiring speakers!! Also i have not booked a photographer................still a bit unsure what to do about this as 2 of my guests are really good and have their own snazzy camera's and have said they would happily do the photos....but part of me is nervous just incase they dont come out well, mind you if theres 2 of them im sure it will be ok??? any thoughts?? Im also looking at hiring catamaran for the day...........need to do some research of any local one's.... I have booked AHR at local private caravan park, just need to decide between dj or band, have booked hog roast.......not made invites for that yet....ah soo much to do.... Anyway thought i would share where im up to and see if anyone else is at similar stage?? x
  22. Hi Herbie! Don't worry too much about not hearing from your wc, mine has just changed so im guessing they are having some kind of shake up at head office..........from what i have gathered from the azul thread this has happened to a few of the girls so im sure you will hear soon - if its really getting to u though let me know and i will give you my wc email address and see if she can be of any help! I have asked about discounts too, its so annoying hearing about all the free stuff and discounted group bookings the canadians and american's get but we are entitled to nothing! i have picked this up with thompson's but because its only them and thomas cook that book the hotel from this country they have complete control. They are really mean not giving us anything esp when we have large numbers going over!! how many do you have in your group? I have 25 (1 child). Plannning for me is going ok, i have requested the beach gazebo near pier for ceremony followed by zavas plaza for private reception. thank god for this site or i would not have know to request these prior to getting there! If you havent already requested i would recommend you do so as it takes a couple of weeks to get confirmed. Im almost decided on my private meal............trying to please everyone takes some careful consideration! I have decided just to have i-pod as music after meal as the fees for dj are ridiculous! and i think we will end up in the mojito lounge for a dance after anyway!! I need to sort out decorations for table and also decide what to do with the gazebo.................any idea's?? And the other thing i need to do is research a day out/boat trip for our guests. I like the idea of hiring a catamaran for the day and going snorkelling but need to do some searching on the net and see if anyone has any recommendations for this... How are you getting on with everything? Also on a diet and exercise plan!! slimming world and lots of zumba and gym for me! i need to loose 2 stone by june..................ahhh! Good job i have stopped drinking! fingers crossed i can stay off it at the weekends!! Have a good day, ceri x
  23. hi ladies! well i have been on this site for some time and have just come accross this thread for uk brides!! how excited and pleased am i!! Im getting married at the azul sensatori in mexico on the 9th june..........20 weeks and counting!! anyone else getting married there?? Im also doing zumba twice a week, gym, circuits, step.........and diet!! managed a weekend off the wine too!!
