They aren't going to be using Fernando anymore??? At least you had a trial and they're good!!! Thanks for the post, it makes me feel better about planning and new planners!!!

Has anyone else heard anything from Kelley about the new planner??? I thought we may have heard something by now... no??? Only 15 weeks left until the big day for me now

I hadn't heard about the hurricane!!! My sunny warm, dry thoughts are with you and the other 2 brides!!!

Just curious where you got the bags from? I may try my hand at making some of these myself!!!

Now, I've heard so much about this zumba it has me curious... can I get videos to do this at home??? And any suggestions for which one????

Well I am 3 and 3 for staying on track again!!! Have no choice now... it's crunch time

I would have to say it depends on your level of fitness now? If you're coming off the couch... definitely Shred, but if you are fairly active P90X will do it and if you are highly active and in fairly good shape already I would go for Insanity. My advice is start slowly and build yourself up and you will likely succeed! Good luck and keep up the motivation!!!

I never thought about an iron, you probably could... just put the tags in a folded paper and iron both sides of the paper??? Might actually work! That or I think you might be able to get stuff laminated at like staples or office supply stores, you could look into it. I only have a laminator because I used to be a program teacher at a daycare and did ALOT of laminating in my day

I do have a laminater and I actually made my own templates for the Info side of the tags and I printed them on full sheet sticker paper and will be putting that part on after they are laminated so everyone can fill them out themselves. I was torn about how I was going to do this too at first... I was going to write everyone's name and info, but decided I really didn't want to do that because not everyone wants all their info out for anyone to see and so on. So this was the easiest way I could think of.

Manda, I copied the link below for the amazon seller where I got them from. They were like 15$ and they are still the same price! If it doesn't work let me know and I can try again!!! http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0006HXLMG/ref=cm_cr_rev_prod_title

mllek1986, I LOVE the changes you made!!!! It really does look amazing!!! Now I am starting to get into the whole.... only 3 1/2 months, getting closer and excited, especially having seen my dress again and almost finished!!!! Yay ladies... we're getting closer and closer now!!!

OK, just had my first dress fitting yesterday, and it's butt kick time!!! Wish I had Tommy from Bulging Brides to kick my butt for the next 6 weeks!!! I gotta lose some back ass and tighten up my arms!!! No more messing around now!!! I'm going to be doing the 30 day shredd and back, arms and shoulders from P90X with a few ab workouts!!!! Wish me luck ladies it's crunch time now!!!!

Alright.... had a very long weekend. My cousin had a baby girl which she was born after almost exactly 72 hours of labour. Had to share this becaused it played into my long weekend and 1st dress fitting. We live in a small town that wasn't prepared for this kind of labour, she she was flown out to Winnipeg where I was heading for the dress fitting. Long story short I had to leave a few days early and do lots of running around in the city for them, which I gladly did. Anyway... on to the dress fitting, the dress shop opened late and I waited outside the store, downtown, with my 2 year old, had to bring him with my BUT when I finally got to put my dress on again and then see the modifiaction I requested, I totally forgot all the craziness and fell in love with the dress all over again!!!! So as promised I have a pic to share with you ladies! On another note, I am torn about how many favours to order!!! I know how many I have booked and RSVPed, but I know of about 10-14 more people that MAY last minute book. It's driving me crazy. I don't want to wait too much longer to order them because it's going to take 6-8 weeks to get them in and I don't want to be pushing it too close to christmas. I'm thinking of ordering a bunch of extra, but I don't really want to have too many if these people don't end up coming :S Ahhhhh... I don't know what to do. Everyone keeps telling me, well they waited to let you know they can't expect anything if they wait like that, but I know I will feel pretty crappy if a bunch of people don't get favours or OOT bags. Help... what are your thoughts?????

I actually got luggage tags from amazon.com that have loops and are laminating pouches. They were pretty cheap too... I think it was only 10-12$ for 50 of them. If you would like specifics about them I would love to share!!!

Wow... sorry this took three posts, I'm still learnign how to attach photos and stuff. It's a little frustrating :S Here are the luggage tags, hope they work. Luggage Tags.pub

Oops the front of the brochure didn't work!!! Here it is

We are also sending out a pre-travel brochure, I'm thinking mid November before the christmas rush as well. Also I am making luggage tags to mail with the brochures. I attached my visita print projects and my luggage tag cards as well.

Oh yeah... and my dress came in yesterday!!!!! SOOO excited to go to the city next weekend for my first fitting!!!!! YAY!!!!

4 months today until our wedding!!! Wow time is really flying now!!!!

No, no, we're giving the OOT bags out at the welcome dinner and the shot glasses with tequila at the reception. I am thinking about the maracas again too, but yeah just one each also. I have a little time to think about. Just trying to get some different ideas to look at all the options! Thanks for the ideas!

Alright ladies, I've been thinking about place cards and have no idea what to do. I think we are going to have one large table for our seating and was thinking of having everyone's names on something at their seat. I thought about the maracas, but I think it might be too much with having shot glasses, tequila bottles and the oot bags. What are you thoughts or suggestions??? I'm lost on this one...

I am waiting to hear back from them about cost and I will let you know as soon as I do. And they do have both, I am not sure of the larger bottle sizes, but the mini ones are about 50ml or 2 oz.

Thanks for the suggestion and the seating chart!!!! That is really helpful!!! Empty Seating Chart.ppt

OK my questions are starting to flow now that I am back in weddind planning mod again. Sorry for so many ladies... I was just thinking about the seating and was wondering how many people had one long table and how many people comfortable sat that way. I really like this idea, but we're at 32 adults and 2-3 kids including us, but I am guessing there might be as many as 40 of us with the last minute bookers. I was just trying to figure out if that would be too many for one table????? Any suggestions or advice???

http://www.tequilamamalucia.com is the web address and I did use the "contact us" section for emailing, but the email address is [email protected]. They weren't super fast replying at first, but have been really good. I do believe their english is a little off, but not too bad, can still understand what they are getting at. Good luck!!!
