Hot pics girl!! Thanks for sharing. You all have such great advice so thank you thank you!! I have about 16 pages of photos I like that I saved to show her. I think that should be a good start, right? LOL!! Just need to get some new lingerie. Went looking yesterday but didn't have much time to really look....more of a browse. I am moving into our new apt tmrw so once I am settled in next week I'll go shopping with sis to see what looks good and what flatters me. I'm getting really excited now. Can't wait!!

Very helpful thread. I plan to take bits and pieces from different ones to make it unique and special to us. Thanks to everyone who shared.

This is a great idea. I was thinking of just doing a photo frame but an album with lots more pictures from the vacation would be even better. Would it be cheesy to give a little card to each parent telling them we are creating photo albums for them as a wedding/thank you gift?

Aww your pictures are lovely. You have me re-thinking about the picture thing too. You looked gorgeous!!

Thanks for the suggestions Joanne. I plan on doing the spray tan (actually trying airbrushing this time), I plan on bringing a few sexy lingerie outfits and booty shorts and something I really want to do is steal his huge Manchester United (soccer team) flag off of his wall and use it in some of the photos with a soccer ball. I am racking my brain on how I can take it without him getting suspicious. My sister said to tell him she needs it....but for what?? LOL I don't think I'll be too nervous...I'm just more worried about "trying" to look sexy. I think I'll put in my hair extensions, get my makeup done and definitely put on fake lashes and just listen to the professional. The package I purchased comes with a 10pg album....no digital photos which I wasn't too happy with but I think I'll be happy with just that. Thanks for the compliment. I know Insanity has really helped me lean out which is what I needed. I am a veggie so no Big Mac for me but trust me I want to eat a whole tub of cookie dough, a warm brownie sundae and whole pizza once I get back....or maybe on the honeymoon HAHA!!

I know. How exciting!!! I absolutely love it. It was the first dress I tried on and I just kept coming back to it. I am so glad I got it. I know its the one!!!

Thanks hun!!

Here is mine. Purchased from VP.

YAY the pic of my dress is running across the board on the home page. How exciting!! So ladies....I gave in and decided to book a professional for a boudoir shoot next weekend. I contemplated it for weeks and I had a few people offer to shoot it but I just knew they wouldn't turn out good. My engagement pics were done by my mom and another session by another friend and I wasn't happy with either. So I figured I should go the professional route for these to make sure I look absolutely friggin amazing. So maybe I need to start doing double Insanity days next week LOL!!! I should get the album a week after that. I hope its worth every damn dollar I'm spending!!

Well ladies I decided to give in and book a professional for the BD photos. It better be worth every friggin penny!! LOL I really think I'll be happy with it and I know FI will love it. 2 hr photo shoot, 4-5 outfits and just a 10 page album - $450 Doing it next weekend. Telling the FI I am going shopping with my sis for the bridal shower which is the next day hehe!! Great cover up.

16 1/2 inches. They are perfect size.

No I was mistaken. I've just seen way too many TTD photos recently. Your pictures truly are gorgeous and it really makes me want to do it.

Oops nope I was wrong. Guess I saw your pics earlier and I confused them with the other ones I've been looking at. I've been hounding tons of TTD slideshows looking for pictures I want captured. The photos are all starting to become a blur LOL.

Gorgeous pictures Megan!! Was Jonathan the second photographer? I've been sent some of your photos by La Luna to see the type of work Jonathan does. What did you think of him?

Great point!!!

Aww thank you!! Alterations suck but it will be so worth it when it fits perfect!! And you are right about the parents. If they can't do it for a few minutes now how are they going to do it for 5 days? i better handle it now instead of when we are down there on vacation. Ugh!

Thanks so much girls. You are all too sweet. Can't wait to be tan, have my hair and makeup done and have all the accessories. Then it will all come together. So excited to wear it....twice LOL!!

Thank You!! I love how the detail runs along the corset...it was one of my fav things about it. Insanity is no joke. It really has helped. Lost 2 inches around the widest part of my legs/hips....and all over the rest of my body as well. I have only 3 days left of the 60 day program. =)

Thanks ladies!! Haha they sure have. I feel so good in it and it just hugs me in all the right places. Except when I put my arms down I still have some back fat that has decided to stick out over the edge of the dress. I wasn't too happy with that. Oh well...still got 5 weeks to make it better.

Here they are!! Its just gorgeous!! I am so happy with my decision. It only needs a hem, bustle and some cups.

Yea same here....and when I rush or I get excited or nervous...I SWEAT.....A LOT!! I hate it but I can't help it. Even yesterday when I went to try my dress on for the first time I was just dripping and dripping....down my back, down my front, down my legs. So in addition to trying to relax and get ready slowly I am also bringing a small but very powerful fan with me that will I will put under my dress once I put it on LOL. The lady at the bridal store told me to put cornstarch all over me!! Maybe I'll just roll around in it haha!!

Pucca - cute picture. Congrats!! Mine is next week with our parents - which means my mom and dad and stepmom all in one room. I am so scared!! LOL So the dress fitting went very well. Just need hem, bustle and cups which still ended up costing me so much. What a shock!! These were taken on my phone. My dress is so beautiful and I am so happy with it. It just flows when I walk!!

Glad I could help. I love the ones I got and I can't wait to surprise my guests with the luggage tags and pre-travel brochures in a few weeks.

DEFINITELY!!!

Based on the reviews I've read from past brides most of them were quite calm, relaxed and just enjoyed the day. They got massages, pedicures, room service and other stuff the day off and just hung out with the girls and had a great relaxed no-stress time. Well at least that is what they come back and tell us. Maybe they are all trying to hide the fact that everyone freaks out haha!! Totally kidding. I plan to do the same thing. Meet up with my girls, relax, get my toes done, maybe a massage or do yoga that morning, order room service and have lots of great laughs with my friends and family!! =)
