Wow, you should not be on this site....LOL Glad to see you are keeping us all updated though (selfish message). Can't wait to read your review and see your pics. I love your welcome packet. Happy days....2 days left!

Congratulations on your engagement!! This is such a happy time. Use this site and the other brides, they are beyond knowing and have the most cost efficient tips! I absolutely love this site and I hope it is indeed helpful to you also.

Congrats on your engagement. I too decided on the Dominican Republic after changing from Jamaica to Florida. I can't recall how I stumbled across this site but like previous posters, boy am I glad I did. Welcome!!!

Wow, congrats on the early planning!!! You have more accomplished than me and I am a little over two months out. It helps that you made your decision so early ( I switched back and forth three times...) Good luck with all the planning and please continue to keep us updated.

Wow 30 days and counting...how exciting!!! Thank you for keeping us in your planning process. Your thread has been absolutely breath taking and an idea generator. Can't wait to see how everything blends all together in Jamaica.....I will be counting down with you!

Gotta love this thread? This thread along with all the others continue to get me in trouble, LOL. All of the ideas from the other brides (you included) keeps my DIY list growing.

First ~ your oot bags are beautiful. I love the huge tote, I am searching for orange one's myself (without much luck). I have some questions for you, first your tags on your bags, you say you got them from Paper Presentation, yet on the website it says they are printer friendly, how did you get your names on the tags? Secondly, the petal enclosure, maybe I am not looking hard enough, yet I don't see that on their site. We do hav a store right in town, yet I'd like to know what I am looking for. Any help would be appreciated and thank you for sharing!! Wedding Survival Kit.ppt imodium AD envelopes.ppt imodium safety info.ppt survival kit bag.doc pashminalabel.doc

Casablanca lillies, wow I have never heard of those (time to google)...I like the ivory, may look into orange, don't need pink at all. Thanx

I really love that idea, by any chance do you think the flowers are tiger lillies? I am preparing to order my flowers to make my bouquets and I know I need to focus on my centerpieces also.

Oh EMM GEE This are beautiful....your wedding is looking awesome already!!! I really can't wait for your final thread and your review thread, sitting on the edge of my sit patiently waiting

But of course I love your entire thread....I have been following and duplicating (okay copying, LOL) a lot of your projects. Thank you so much for sharing... My question, is the postcards, I would like to do those also, how did you go about doing that? Is there a template or did you just wing it. Do share

Date Twin ~ I finished my luggage tags! WOOHOO!!! Next up - my pompoms for the gazebo decoration. Have to wait on a final confirmed guest count to order my bags and t-shirts. How is your planning coming along?

I will indeed. I will probably cry like a big baby when I see it the first time!

Hi Jessica, My date is 11-12-11 and no my dress is being made. So, I have not seen it or tried it on. Yet I am confident in the person who is making it, so I know I'll love it. Just really anxious to have my first fitting.

No I don't have any little kids around me, my youngest cousin is now 18 and my oldest second cousin (my cousin's daughter is 7, LOL)....I can google or youtube it. I think it's a wonderful idea!!

Wow that's gorgeous, how do you plan to get it to your destination?

I am on eBay right now searching for both machines!!! Thank you for sharing.

We are flying JetBlue also and my dress has a full tuille skirt also, yikes!

I agress with bmadzia, I would be a bit offended if I was already paying to travel to a destination for a wedding and then to have to pay for my meals at the wedding. Other meals that is find, yet my wedding meal, I am not sure how I would react to that. If anything, if you could word it so that they are paying for other meals or that the transportation to and from will cover it. We are going to an all inclusive resort, so the price of their stay covers their meals and everyone is okay with that.

Your pictures are wonderful! Congrats!!!

Your wedding looked awesome!! I really like the bracelets, can I ask how they were made? My grandmother passed and I would love to have her as part of the ceremony.

No it isn't nuts. My daughter is 14 months, she has 8 teeth and those came in with no issue. She is teething once again and have had fevers as high as 105. We do the tylenol/advil combination, the cold rag, frozen teethers, frozen eggo waffles and yes we do the Camilla tea. I usually make a pot of tea, take her medicine syringe, use 1.875ml and a cup of 4 oz water and gives it to her. Of course, I have adjusted this because of her age and size, when she was smaller I would use less tea with the same amount of water. It kept her calm. Also, if you have a Whole Foods they have a teething medicine, drops, that works wonders!

I guess I'll probably be ordering from CheapTotes, all the other brides are so much further in their planning than my procrastinating ass, LOL
