  1. I'm on public transit too at least out to a go station where I'm parked but if I can't drive we live 6 min from the station so Doug can pick me up and I can get my truck tomorrow. Sent from my SGH-I337M using Tapatalk
  2. Or maybe a couple..... oh I just thought of something! What if all the girls ask us to have a drink for them? We'll have to "share" otherwise some of us won't make it home..... lol Sent from my SGH-I337M using Tapatalk
  3. I will have my iPad with me. If WiFi is available (it's not on a plan but I could sync it to my phone) I could Skype anyone in that wants to Sent from my SGH-I337M using Tapatalk
  4. @perianjay yes - just the little hanger card. I don't need very many so I wanted something fun and silly but when I look at it, it just looks..... blah. And when I print it, it looks horrible! The colours are all wrong.
  5. Looking forward to it!! If I bring my door card @ could you take a look and maybe make recommendations on what I can do to it please? If you don't mind!! I don't want to add extra work to you while you're wedding planning but maybe just a couple of suggestions or thoughts would be so much appreciated! Sent from my SGH-I337M using Tapatalk
  6. Thanks! That's a huge help!! I looked around at the Shelli Segal dresses - quite a few really pretty ones! I'm going to go looking for veil weights I think. Another bride here also got them. I think it just might be a worthwhile investment.
  7. @@snswedding2016 @ I saw it!! I watched it!! I saw Sofi get married!!!! Woohoo!!!!! OMG She's gorgeous!!!
  8. i love your photos! Your BM dresses are gorgeous!! Where did you find them? And i love your hair down. How did you find it 1) in the heat and 2) with your veil? It's what I would like to do but I'm worried it's going to be really hot. Also, how did hubby find it being in a suit? Was he overly warm? Thanks!!
  9. I just signed up and I'm looking!! But yes, all I see is the one tagged 5 days ago. I think Sofi won't mind as long as nobody here was to post anything. I mean if I see it I'll say I saw it, but there is no way I would try to post any images or anything. Oh wouldn't that be exciting if we got to see her get married!!!! Too cool! So now @@snswedding2016 we'll get to do the same to you!! lol I don't know why but I just realized that you're getting married on my brother's birthday! And @@veryvalentine got married on Doug's birthday in June!
  10. I got married in Jamaica almost 4 years ago at the Gran Bahia Principe Jamaica in Runaway Bay. it's a fairly large resort but we still felt it was small enough that it wasn't overwhelming. However it does belong to the Bahia chain of hotels. Definitely find a good travel agent and tell them what you're looking for. They're the best ones to help you with your budget, your must haves and the budget amount for your guests. Good luck!
  11. You could start by checking on the internet to see what the rules are about brining pets into Mexico. There might be something special required that might not make it worthwhile to do. Secondly I would strongly suggest talking to a travel agent. I don't think I've ever seen anyone here mention taking a pet with them but a travel agent would be able to help out with resorts that do allow pets and what the rules are. Good luck!
  12. I haven't seen anyone here mention it at all. We're renewing our vows on October 20th and the coordinator that I have (we're doing it off resort) hasn't asked me once for our marriage certificate from 4 years ago. @veryvalentine Did you have to prove you had done your legal ceremony before you got married at GSP?
  13. Oh that's so sweet! The places you're thinking about are all wonderful but do you want somewhere private? Those places at this time of the year will all have a lot of people around. There are beautiful gardens in a lot of places but everywhere I think of will have other people. Could you go away for a night maybe? Somewhere that it can be just the two of you?
  14. This is going to be so great! I'm excited to meet everyone! I should be down there about 5:15 or before if I can. Camera will be at the ready!! @@snswedding2016 what did you get for a final count? And it's still Oliver & Bonacinni at 33 Yonge St? you should definitely have a sign that says BDW! there is no way anyone else will have any idea what that means!! lol @@deecol I'm certain there will be at least one more date! @@beckys98 my feeling is that there will be more than one camera so there should be quite a few photos to add here!
  15. @vancouverpetunia Sorry - I've been having computer issues at home with this free Windows 10 upgrade and no matter what I did last night I could not paste a link. It's the same as here at work I can't do it and seems to be connected it IE somehow. I thought I had typed it out in a separate enough way to make it easy for everyone to see. My apologies!! I just had a look at that website that you posted. They have some really cute things!! Is there a specific one you're looking at? I really like Lulu's except I did find the sizing a bit small, and I think there was one dress I really liked and when I looked at an XL I think it was, it was the equivalent to like a size 10. That is so not happening! lol But there were one or two that I did like. We just booked our trip out to Vancouver for November 17th. My dad turned 94 on May 11th so we're going to have a visit with him in Langley. At his age you never know when something could happen. My son is there too but he's right in downtown Vancouver. I'm looking forward to seeing them both. It will be a year since the last visit.
  16. Woo-hoo today's the day!!! Happy wedding day to both you and Juan! I hope it's everything you've ever dreamed of! Can't wait to see the photos!! Sent from my SGH-I337M using Tapatalk
  17. It's the same online site where I bought my dress. They're doing a thing for the whole month of August called Hot Summer Nights. Every Tuesday they post dresses then Thursday they post accessories - belts, veils - so if anyone is still looking for anything to add for your wedding it's worth a look. They're based in the US but with shipping the dress came out to just over $100. Still not a bad deal for a TTD dress. Here's the website: www.thelastminutebride.com. Oh and @@vancouverpetunia I looked at the Lulu's website and they have some really pretty dresses. Did you look? I'm going to try this one with the strap and see how it works but I suspect it will come off. Sent from my SGH-I337M using Tapatalk
  18. I did something really goofy today. I bought a dress. I'm thinking I just might do a TTD. Maybe. We'll see.... The thing is the dress was just so pretty and so CHEAP!!!!! It was just too good of a deal to pass up! I think I might snip off the strap and make it strapless. It's ice pink and blush so something a little different. You wont believe what I paid for it.... Try $49 Yep - forty-nine dollars. If you're curious about any other deals.... just ask.
  19. ha great idea on the bag! Never even thought about it. just might ditch my whichacallit bag (you know, those black ones) in favor of a DB bag! Still have mine from 2011 but I'll tell you - it took a beating! lol Since my shoes are supposed to be ready this week I might buy one when I go in to pick them up!

  20. roflmbo OMG! You really do have the worst luck, don't you!! I'm sorry - I don't mean to laugh (I'm sitting here chuckling!) but it's just so typical of AC first of all; and so typical of AC second of all..... and - well you get the idea. I've had the same thing happen on a flight to Saint John but with Jazz. My sis in law is a flight attendant with Jazz (small world). I heard about the cold weather in NL. Weird summer on the east coast for sure. The important thing is you did your ceremony, the important people were there and you have a great story to tell!! When all is said and done, if you don't find a way to laugh about it, then you cry and that's no good. Glad you're going to make it Friday!! Looking forward to it!!
  21. Yay!! you're back!!! Congrats Mrs!!! Bring pics Friday! !! Sent from my SGH-I337M using Tapatalk
  22. do they really move?? crap (sorry). what is this tape you're talking about? I'm also going to email the vendor and see what she suggests. I'm sure she has had someone else mention it. just wish she had said something! Sent from my SGH-I337M using Tapatalk
  23. Oh where does the time go??? Are we really almost the middle of August? I haven't done much - I'm up to my eyeballs in financial and regulatory reporting for second quarter. I've been stalking Etsy though a bit in the evening and had pretty much decided on certain vendors for a couple of things. So here is the earrings and necklace set I decided on (and this is the actual set): Then I found this really cool site for cake toppers that are totally out of the ordinary. Because of our age and the fact that we're looking at retirement in a few years, plus the fact that this isn't our wedding, I saw these toppers and thought "yeah. that's us" Totally and completely us. So this is a close photo of what ours will be. We're doing white chairs, 2 flip flops (pink and brown) and a glass of wine on one chair and a bottle of Corona on the other (which is Doug's beer). I opted out of the bucket of shells - we aren't shell collectors really. But I thought it was something just plain cool to put on the cake and different. Opinions?
  24. We did an AHR but we only had 30 people so it was just the size we wanted. We had a sit down dinner for it though. It was held in a restaurant on lake ontario with one wall of floor to ceiling windows and when it got dark it looked beautiful with lights from the bridge over the lake. Really pretty. We were just the two of us in Jamaica so we decided before we left that we were having something when we got home. It was really giving in to some people since they had decided not to make the trip but we still had a great time. We had a DJ and danced until 1:00 am I sent invitations before we went to Jamaica so we knew the numbers even before we left.
