J-me

Love this dress!! Beautiful style!

WOW - appendectomy surgery?! Perfect timing! (note sarcasm)...I'm so sorry to hear, but glad you're feeling better! I know it's easier said than done, but try not to stress - all your planning will pay off and soon you'll be in paradise marrying your best friend! Good luck with the move too!!

Thank you! Honestly, I had looked at their work but was still debating between them and a few other (less pricey) photogs....it was actually YOUR slideshow I saw on here that completely sold me!! He did such an amazing job on yours

Beautiful, beautiful, BEAUTIFUL!!! Juan Jose is so talented!

Congrats and well deserved Del Sol!!!! I can't WAIT to have Juan Jose cover my wedding!

Such cute & creative ideas! Thanks for sharing ladies!

Wedding cake martini!! Ironically, this has been 'our drink' since we met years ago when he was bartending Feel free to mix up the yumminess: 2 shots Stoli Vanilla 1 shot pineapple juice 1/2 shot Frangelica Splash of cranberry juice (I like to throw in a maraschino cherry in the glass as well!) *Shaken, not stirred - should have a nice froth on the top. Enjoy!

He is 6 years older than me - maturity-wise though, we're probably on the same level

I did this too!! I just found them at BBW and put two (vanilla coconut and island nectar) in a white organza bag! Great minds think alike

What a great thread!! I'm working on my invites now, so this is very helpful!

Much appreciate you sharing!!

Such beautiful pics!! Congrats!

You did SUCH a great job!! It's all so beachy, yet classy

Congrats on picking your date!!! My website took forevvvverrrrr I feel like to get it the way we wanted and adequate travel info uploaded (and that's using a template), but I'm sure yours will look great - I like the trivia - sounds uniquely fun! I did a LOT of research on photographers - Ivan Luckie and La Luna were among the top picks, but we ended up going with Juan Jose from Del Sol! Good luck with whoever you choose!

Thanks for sharing such great insight! We are trying to decide where to go as well....

We are using Juan Jose from Del Sol! I will say they are pricier than we initially expected to budget, but we decided to splurge and cut back in other areas. For us, pics are one of the most important things that will last well beyond the dress, the cake, decorations, etc...so after MUCH research (picking the photographer was one of the most difficult decisions!), we booked them. Juan Jose is VERY talented, but he's the least expensive of the Del Sol pros because I believe he's the newest to their team....others I looked at & loved: Elizabeth Medina (comparable price to Del Sol), La Luna (any of them are great, but I esp. like Rachel's work and it's less pricey than Del Sol), Juan Navarro (very reasonably priced), Ivan Luckie (LOVE him and also reasonably priced), and Sascha Gluck (again, with the good price). I was torn too, esp. when factoring in cost, but just take your time and look through the galleries of your top picks until you feel confident in a decision. I'm sure you'll love whoever you pick - best of luck!!

Awww congrats - so exciting!!! By the time mine rolls around it'll be 15 months too, so it's nice to know it actually WILL come eventually I hope the time flies by for you!

It's beautiful!!! Very unique

They're all super cute - but my vote is the 3rd one!! Quote: Originally Posted by tammy 2012 I made these up on Powerpoint today and need some advice on which one to use. They are all the same monogram except for some differences in color. Which one do you like?

Congratulations!!! And your date is the day before mine My friend just got back from her honeymoon @ the Paradisus PC and RAVED about it!

Proti007 - love that they were able to customize!! It looks great & definitely is unique! I'm going with our monogram in simple bling

Love it!! It's so chic, yet simple

You did such a great job - your guests will love!!! Thanks for sharing!

Halfway there & then I can open this!! I'm bookmarking it though, because it sounds like you did a great job!!
