After getting pricing from the florist in Jamaica... definitely going with real touch flowers for bridesmaids and centerpieces!!!!! My bouquet is included in my package, but I think I'm going to bring extra flowers to put in my bouquet. Just got the okay from mom! LOL

I love the orange!!!! Any ideas/thoughts on what else to surround it with on the table?

As much as I hate giving up my last name 'cause it's so unique and I've had it for 28 years, I will be taking his name. Though I have to say... I grew up with a name NO1 could pronounce and of course I'm marrying someone with another unusual name!! LOL WTF all my girlfriends with the easy last names got new easy names. Oh the luck! LOL

oooooooo I love the one shoulder!! Beautiful! Yea San Patrick!!!

Love the idea of adding it into the ceremony!!!! Thanks clgriffi!!!

Kristy- you're right. It's definitely made me second think the friendship... sadly.

Everything is going to turn out perfect! Like everyone said... just breathe!!!! Try to live the island mantra... No worries!!!!!!!!

Ooooh such a great question!!! Haven't even thought about that!!! Interested to hear what people did and plan to do!!

Love the idea!!!! Just need more post to view it! LOL

Definitely "stealing" the Oh Sh%t bag label!!! LOL Too cute!!!!

You guys have been wonderful!! Thank you!

Thanks...

Great Site! Martha always knows what she's doing! :-)

Beautiful! Thanks for sharing!!

I see your points, however... 1. That was her first time visiting the venue 2. I'm looking forward to the other wedding. It's a weekend away to a place I've never been, but always wanted to go.

Loving Verse #2 and the frame!! Does anyone know if the frame comes in black?! Thanks!

The other wedding is my fiance's good girl friend (only friend that's a girl), and she asked us if we were available that weekend back in August. She's having a very small wedding (30-40 people), so the fact that she asked us before booking months ago, she trumps.

Okay, so I'm warning you that I'm writing this as I'm still pissed off.... I only have a few girlfriends (as they tend to drop off as years go by), and one just got engaged 2 weeks ago. She's only been dating the guy less than a year prior to the engagement (which doesn't really matter), but she's always been the one who has been dying to get married. So of course, she wanted to have the wedding asap. I got engaged mid-July and we're having a destination wedding in June. She's no longer coming to my wedding and wants a summer wedding. She's upset she can't do June 'cause of my wedding and doesn't want to do August for some reason, so July is her only option in her mind. She only went to one venue and the only date they have available is July 30th. When telling us this, I informed her that I will be out of town that weekend due to us already having a wedding that weekend 4 hrs away. That was last week... found out today that she's keeping the 30th. She was planning on asking me to be a bridesmaid. Is it just me, but if you were going to ask someone to be in your wedding, wouldn't you make sure they were available?! And seriously... only checking out 1 venue! I'm sorry, but if someone I was going to have in my wedding couldn't make the date, I would definitely check out other places to see if they compared and had other dates available!! I know, I know, it's her wedding and she should be able to do whatever she wants to do, but still!!!!! AAAAAAAAARGH!!!! We're suppose to go out to dinner Thursday to celebrate her engagement (me, her, and 3 other close friends), is it wrong that I don't want to go now?!?!
