I have not!!! I e-mailed her twice yesterday, so obviously, I am not surprised I haven't heard back from her. I hope everything is ok!!!! Keep us posted!!!!

(((HUGS))) It will be the best. I am just so ready to go, be there and be married! HAHAHAHA!!!! Totally addicting, FI had to stop me!!!! lol!!!! Welcome!!! I will PM you about flowers. I am using PSAV, but we are only having 20 people, so a DJ would have been too much. It's for the speaker itself and yes, for someone to run you I-pod as well as a mic, etc...If I were having more people I would have gotten a DJ. It just depends on your preference and if you crowd will want all the fun that comes with a DJ??? It sounds like you should invest in a DJ since it is important to keep everyone movin'

It's all good! Everything is working out how its supposed to! The week is going to be so much fun, we won't care anymore! I'm just ready to go! :-) uote name="shan0487" url="/t/66759/moon-palace-2012-brides/4390#post_1749406"] Sorry to hear that Jamie- if I could give you a few of my room nights- I would totally share! Your day will be amazing with our without the additional room nights!!

And I know we will still have a great time. Everyone will!!!

Believe me, I do remember that. I wish I could go back and just elope with him instead!

Hi ladies! Hope you are all doing well!!! I had my shower this past weekend and that was good And yesterday everyone's payments were due. As it turns out my step mom is not going now, which means we lose 7 days as my youngest sister is now staying with my dad instead of in her own room. We had convinced one of my friends that we would pay for 2 of 3 nights for her, if she could come. We did this as that would put us at 61 nights and the benefits of that outweighed the little bit of money we put forth for it. But now we are at 51 nights with NO hopes of reaching 60, which we had planned on for so long. Long story short this alters so many of our plans of what we wanted to do. Crazy how one person not going can change things so much! I am at a point where I just want to get the show on the road! On a brighter note, everyone that is going should be fully paid now! YAY!!! Oh and my BM dresses are finally in!!! Can't wait to see them!

Everything looks great! I am partial to May 8th as it's my bday!!! YAY! So excited for you! Hope your wrist is ok!!! I decided I am done skiing for the rest of the season. The snow is pretty terrible here now, anyways! Your story always sticks with me when I am on the slopes! YAY YAY YAY!!! congrats! Can't wait to hear all about it! AWESOME planning thread!!! Welcome! I would just keep checking in to make sure they have everything. I would also keep everything you have in writing, print it out and bring it with you down there! I will hold them to everything they said! HAHA!! I am also Jewish and I would not want to have my ceremony (if I were doing a Jewish ceremony) in their catholic chapel even though it is beautiful, it's just their "catholic" chapel. Congrats!!! So happy to hear and I can't wait to hear more!!! I know it was stressful for you before you got down there! I would have had a heart attack too!!!

OH Coco!!! Everything looks amazing, as I knew it would! I still die when I see those little girls in those dresses! PRECIOUS!!! But your dress is absolutely amazing! Thank you for all your help along the way!!!! I'm gonna miss you on here! Can't wait for your review!!! xx

Love the shoes!!! Both of them!!! OOHHH! Cant wait to read!

YAY!! We will have to see if we can arrange a meet up for a drink if you are going to be there around the same time!!!

Oh Summer! I am so very sorry for your loss! My heart goes out to you and your family. Lots of prayers coming your way!!! (((BIG HUGS)))

Thank you! But I have a question...when I hear of juicing, I think of steroids. I assume that is not what you mean??? So, can you tell me what it is, not to sounds completely dumb! HA! Is that just drinking liquids?? I will try the not eating after 6. I made the decision that the only thing I will eat after 6, is salads (with protein) or a protein shake, but no carbs after I work out. I just don't know if I can work out and not eat afterward, since I do it at night. I need to get serious. Only about 2 1/2 months to go!

You did an amazing job! Everything looks great!

Girl, I feel like I am going through the same thing!!!! I have lost NO weight whatsoever and my clothes feel the exact same! I feel that working out and eating healthy actually hurts, rather than helps me. I know, I know, that's not possible, but for me, I think it is!!! I have been completely discouraged too! I tried on my dress a couple weeks ago and I was less than thrilled with how I looked in it. It's a really popular dress, so when I see other girls in it, I think "I am totally not as cute in it". With how the works out are, I keep thinking there is NO WAY they won't eventually work, right!?!? So, I will stick with it and come to you girls when I need it!!! That's why we are here!!! Keep up the GREAT work! And know you are building muscle and it will eventually you will lean out!!!! You are doing amazing!!! We are our worst critic and I am sure you are looking good!!!

YAY!!!! So excited for you!!!! Doin' my happy dance! I love when I get home and there are boxes waiting for me!!! Per usual, everything looks absolutely amazing!!! Your guests are in for a major surprise with all your wonderful ideas, OOT bags, decor, etc.... Can't wait to see how everything comes together! So TRUE! I'm done cryin'. Moving on to happier things! I can't wait to marry my best friend and that's all that matters now! (((HUGS)))

Congrats on the weight loss!!!! My wedding is May 31st and I have one of my dress fittings scheduled early April and the last one is early May....I would ask where you are having your alterations done, they would be able to tell you if they are super busy, etc...and when you should schedule. That's what my dress place did.

Hello Ladies! We finally started month 2 after doing month one forever is seems like! So glad we did, I was pretty sick of month one. I actually really enjoyed yesterday. It was definitely harder, but I felt I did pretty well considering. I still had to take my breaks, but I also pushed through a lot! I am afraid of what else is to come, but I decided month 2 will definitely whip me into shape in no time! Another vacation!-FUN!!!! Welcome back!!! It sounds like you are doing soooo amazing! YAY!!!

Thanks for all the kind words My biggest problem has just been that this has been a long time coming with a lot of people and I just need to deal since I haven't dealt with it up until now! I am totally thrilled our families are coming and I am sure I will not think twice about those "friends". It goes deeper than these people not coming to our wedding, it's about what kind of friendship we have anymore, period. Thanks for the love and support!!!

WOW!!! Everything looks amazing! I am loving seeing more of your pix!!! you looked so beautiful! BTW-I e-mailed Katie and she actually sent me a picture of your reception set up! I loved the bamboo lanterns and the candle steps and I recognized the pic right away (from your pix) So, thank you for the inspiration!!

So, I think I may be losing it a little bit. As you all know I don't have ANY friends coming to our wedding. Their reasoning (excuse), MONEY. Ok, so how could I be mad at that, even though not one of them tried to save, but the kicker is...I keep finding out that more and more of them are still going on their vacations this year. I told you about the "friend" that was in Costa Rica, another is going to FL in a week, another one going to FL over my wedding week, I just found out that another one is going to FL the end of this month, one friend stated he couldn't come because of money, but was just in NYC for a week and told me he was headed to Seattle for 1 1/2, but that we should get together when he gets back (all in the same breath). One told me she was going to come, but spent all her money going to Michigan!?!? My feelings are severely hurt by these people. Why is my wedding not a vacation they want to take??? And why am I supposed to accept their reasoning for not coming and be happy that they are going on their vacations anyways? Everyone, that I try to talk to tells me, that I should not be surprised no one is going, but my feelings are constantly being hurt every time I find out another "friend" is going somewhere else. I know you all will say the same thing, but I just had to vent, as I can't really vent to my "friends" about this. THanks!

Much love to you Coco!!! You have helped me more than you know, so THANK YOU!!!! I can't believe you leave soooo soon!!! You will have an amazing wedding!!! Big hugs to you all! YAY!!! So excited for you!! These look absolutely amazing! You did a great job!!! Funny you mention that. What is the difference? YAY!!!

The dinner reservation is there for people that will have 35 and under and do not wish to purchase a private function ( and who do not have unlimited free events). If you have unlimited free events, NO you will not have to pay for those extra people. That reservation is solely to be used at a restaurant. It's included with all wedding packages. Just think of it this way, if you have unlimited free events, they are free except to extend the hours, decorations, music, etc...You will not have to pay pp. Just for the extras. Hope that makes sense!?!?!

As part of any wedding package you choose, you have the option of a dinner reservation for up to 30 or 35 people in a restaurant. If you think you will only have 12 people there, then you can absolutely use your reservation for that and you WC will be able to make that reservation for you. We chose to have a private reception because we are not having an AHR. We are only having 20 people, and if memory serves me correctly, you have to have a min. of 20 guests to book a private function. Good luck!

OMG!!! I used to love EXPOSE~!!! I love that you had them on your song list!!!

You are doing sooo great! I am probably not going to order P90X, but I do have another beachbody DVD that uses weights while working out, so I think I will try that too! I could definitely see how you could get bored with INSANITY, I am feeling bored right now! Probably because I took a 2 week break in month one and am not trying to get myself back up to par again before doing month 2. Welcome and good luck! We did not renew our gym membership once we ordered INSANITY. It is a great work out, but it is tough, which I like because I would never push myself like that at the gym!!!
