Those are super cute! That's such a great idea!!!! Program Las Caletas.pub

Merry Christmas all my fellow January Brides!!!! Hope you are not stressing about wedding stuff at the moment and are enjoying the holidays I finished my placecards this morning and now I'm having a glass of wine and enjoying the holiday season with family and friends Happy Holidays Ladies!!!!!

I was just wondering if any past brides had last minute guests book and decide to come to your wedding and if you were able to add them in after the 30 day mark??? I hate this but we "may" have 2-4 more adults and 2 children coming but are waiting to hear if they can get it off work. It drives me nuts, but I don't want to add them to the count and have them not come and be out that much money. I dunno was just thinking about this and was wondering if any of you had some insight for me Thanks ladies, I cannot believe my time is coming up soo fast now!

Yeah our groomsmen and dad's and my brothers are wearing bouts., but dad's and brother's are different from the groomsmens. Our mom's are also going to be wearing pinned corsages that are similar to the dad's but more elegant. Also if sister-in-laws to-be end up coming, still don't know :/ they will have the same ones as moms. I'm starting to get excited about the wedding now that it is so close and I have a better idea of my final guest count. I finally made my FMIL call the family members that I've been hearing are "maybe" coming and tell them now or not for wedding. I may only have a possible 2 more adults and 2 children if sister-in-laws to-be end up coming! That was stressing me out so bad before. I guess I just have to figure out placecards and table number things now and I think I'm done!!! Yay!!! How is everyone else's planning going? Oh yeah I did have a question for any past brides that had the massages on the wedding day, did you arrange that with Kelley? I'm hoping to get massages for all of us girls going over early as part of my BMs gift. Ok maybe 2 questions lol, did everyone do the site inspection??? We were thinking of skipping it as we have been to LC before and we don't want to miss a day with our guests to go over there.... any thoughts on this??? Would you recommend doing it or could we go without???

Just thought I would throw this out there. My wedding is 5 1/2 weeks out and I've been doing all my planning with Kelley and Annie. Annie is going to be doing my wedding and from what I have gathered from emails from her and Kelley, Kelley is done as of this past week. Don't take my word for it, because they never said a set date or anything, but as of Thursday I've just been emailing Annie alone now. I've never even had any contact with Dennise so hopefully they have 2 now???? I'd have to say Annie has been pretty good and gets back to me within a day... 2 at the most. I'm sure Kelley would have emailed you before being done to let you know as she did for me so she's probably just working on it.

mllek1986, for my mom I'm paying to have her hair done on the wedding day, but the day before I'm taking her to this spa in PV that's suppose to be really good. Also I was thinking of taking her to swim with dolphins, it's something she has talked about my how life and she has never had an opportunity to do so. Something that just the two of us will do and also after the wedding we're making wedding books for both sets of parents as a gift too. Just thought I would share what I'm doing. Does your mom like jewellery, you could still get her something like that to wear anytime?

Well now I need to come up with a seating chart and what not. I originally wanted to have one long table with everyone, but we have too many people to do that Oh well, you ladies have any ideas or suggestions for the table number things??? I will only have 3 tables, 4 tops so thought it would be nice to do something a little different if I can figure it out I already bought the folded business cards for placecards so I'll probably still use them and just add the table # to them. What you think???? I was trying to get this stuff done before the holidays, but oh well it's a wedding planning holiday LOL Do you ladies think I would crazy to start packing some of my luggage???? I've been itching to pack my OOT and reception stuff to see how many bags I'm actually going to need Getting too excited.... only 37 more days until we leave!!!

Thank you ladies for your suggestions, I'm thinking My Wish by Rascal Flats, but some of the oldies are good too!!!! I'll have to talk it over with the fiance and see what he says! Thank you thank you for your help!!!!

Our ticket sales have been ok. I wouldn't say tons, but some. Around town at the local businesses the tickets haven't really been selling yet, but my fiance has sold a few tickets at his work. He works at a large gold mine with over 500 employees, so he's been hitting everyone he knows at work up. Personally I think I've sold 3 ticket LOL. A lot of my friends have been reminding me and telling me that most people will buy them the week before, that's when we usually buy social tickets. Are you in a big town??? We're in a small town where I grew up so most of the town know me and are coming to support us.

Holy crap!!!! I LOVE your flowers!!!!! I want them!!!! Tehehe

Ok ladies I need your help!!!! FML has been going on and on about some special song she HAD to dance to for mother-son dance and had to be their own song.... BUT time has ran out she could never find the name of the song and now we get to do the father-daughter and mother-son at the same time... YAY... But now I have no idea what song use for this dance now that will be both of us. I was going to dance to Daughters Father by Gordie Bramford, but thinking probably not appropriate for the "combo" dance now. do you ladies have any suggestions for a good "combo" dance??? We like country, but aren't stuck to anyone genre of music. I have declared this to be my getting the planning done week!!! LOL I'm gonna try anyway now that I'm off until the new year!!! I'm going to have to take a pic of my TTD dress and get your opinions also, I'm super torn if I like it or not and if it will be a good dress for that purpose. Decisions decisions!!! January is coming faster and faster now!!!!

Well I would have to say that today so super frustrating for me in the means of planning.... got home from a 5.5 hour drive after being woke up by my little monster at 4:30 in the morning to be bombarded with questions, phone calls and emails from WC, Travel Agent, FMIL, Fiance.... it was nuts!!!!! Turns out we have 4 people cancel out today, possible 2 more and a few of the tings I wanted for the wedding I can't get!!!! Oh well right life goes on.... and on..... and on LOL!!! I would have to say the most stressful thing for me thus far has to be the amount "disrespect" (not sure if that's the right word to use) people have in not replying or deciding to come last minute or just not saying anything at all. Nobody really knows how much planning and work goes into a DW until you do it yourself!!!! One last rant and I'll be good I promise.... we were told by someone not even attending the wedding that 2 of RSVPed guests were no longer coming, so I called them to ask, I don't want to pay for someone who isn't going to be there!!!! and nope sure enough not coming anymore. I don't care that they aren't coming anymore (it saves me $$$) but can at least tell me your not!!!!!! Ok rant over.... sorry had to get it off my chest!!!! Now onto the fun stuff I just got my second dress in for a TTD if we do decide to do one, but I'm not sure if I like it and really am running out time. This week has been like my, "holy crap, the wedding is only 7 weeks away" week, really starting to set in that it's coming faster now. I can't wait to go on vacation now.... getting pretty excited and it's getting pretty cold out here making me even more excited!!!!

I LOVE YOUR DRESS!!!!! I'm also have a short dress and love it.... I have a pet peeve of sand on pant bottoms and the though of sand on the bottom of a dress scared me LOL

Ok JayKay.... totally had to share this with you!!! RIGHT after I read your post and comment... my phone rings... ok who is this I don't really recognize the name on the caller Id. Hi it's so and so, your dad's friend, he told me to call you about the wedding, me and my wife would like to come too!!!! BAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!! Seriously?????? I cannot help but laugh, I'm still laughing. Of course the person that I am... not wanting to feel ackward and say no.... SURE why not, here's the info. I normally would have been pissed, but I'm passed caring about it. BUT I did call my dad right after and tell him he owes me 100$ for the addition to the wedding to cover the 50 per guest charge and STOP inviting more people!!!! I luckily have over kill on OOT stuff so they will probably get a bag, but not everything will be the same as I do not have enough of everything to go in it. LOL I had to share this with you, it was too ironic and hilarious after I thought about it!!!!! Here's to the big day and holiday season of the more the MERRIER!!!!! Hope everyhting works out for you and your "surprise" guests!!!!

JayKay.... That's a hard one!!!! It is super close and last minute and I wouldn't even think twice about the OOT Bags, they would not be getting one and the weddding... well, I'm not sure what I would do. I always feel bad about stuff like that and would probably try to get them in for the actual wedding, but anything else probably not. I would be having words with mom about that one too and how upset I was about the whole situation. It's really hard because it's not even your friends, it's your parents... so I dunno.... just gonna be what you want to do and feel comfortable with. Good luck!!! Everything will work out in the end and you'll be getting married!!! YAY!!!!

Well... I was so excited for my soon to be sister-in-law and her kids to be coming for the wedding, and having a flower girl, but her work won't let her have the time off now I was soooo sad when she told us, but I guess if I have to look for the upside, I don't have to re-do the programs now to add a flower girl. I really wouldn't have minded doing it though Now I'm just waiting to hear back from the WC so I can finalize and pay for everything. Guess I could work on the placecards next, that's pretty much all I have let to do now.... I think ; ) How is everyone else's planning coming along??? I pretty much have a daily panic attack about one thing or another for the wedding :S It will only be 50 days until the BIG day on Tuesday!!!!

Oops... I forgot the DND signs on the contents of the bag. I got them from vistaprint, they are rack cards that I cut the hole in!!!!

I just decided to email our photog the other day, just to get some info on finally payment (cash/credit/cheque) and meeting before the wedding when we get down there to meet and talk about the different shots I would like and what not. I would probably just find some easy question or something to email them just to reconfirm everything.... that's partly why I did becasue we hadn't spoke in months.

I have no idea!!!!! LOL I just want them, I've been emailing my photographer about getting them done and he's going to try and work with my fiance and do them in a "short" amount of time. He was saying something about some beach that starts with an M... I can't remember the name, I'll check my email later and get back to you ; ) I really want in the ocean ones, like pretty much just in the water and on the beach. Getting pretty excited about them though!!!

OMG SOLD!!!!! I love your photos!!!!! I want to do it sooooo bad.... gonna have to have a chat with the man this evening!!!! Thanks sooo much, I do realize it's the no regret thing and I no matter what some people just have these feelings... it's remembering to breath through them get pass it!!! I CAN DO THIS!!!!!! LOL *breath*

Almost done.... Photo Share Info (I also have to add the Guest Room # List page- which I haven't decided if I'm going to add one page with everyone's names and a spot for the room # or if I will do a right up on each guest/couple/family with pictures and add a room # sticker... depends on home much more energy I feel like putting into these And last put not least, the Back of the Books I bought the books from the Dollarama, they are photo albums, if you haven't noticed yet. I originally wanted to get the small single photo ablums for these, but with my luck when I was in the city to buy all this stuff, I couldn't find them anywhere!!!!!! Actually not right... I did find 5 at Zellers, but they were 5$ each and I needed 25 of them.... way too much to spend, so I went back to the Dollarama and got these ones. Hope everyone enjoyed this and maybe got some ideas also. I know I have borrowed a few ideas, if not all, from other brides on here!!!!! Let me know if you have questions about anything!!!!

To Trash the Dress or not to Trash the Dress????? I'm sooooo on the fence, I want to do it so bad, but my fiance is like, "another day of photos.... I hate taking pictures!!!!" They look so awesome though and I'm really starting to realize I only get to do this once and maybe I do want some of those things I never thought I wanted out of a wedding I dunno, last minute stuff is really freaking me out!!! I know what I "thought" I wanted and now all of sudden I'm not sure of anything I wanted anymore... please tell me I'm not the only one and this is normal???? Please????
