We chose the riu in ocho rios because we heard they had great wedding packages and were fairly priced for our guests.

Only 4 months to go!!!!!!

I was planning on going barefoot but I am loving these barefoot sandals

Your dress looks beautiful!!

thanks for the tips!

I wanted to do fire lanterns before our dinner, however recently found out the Riu doesn't allow them, and no private beach

Peacock feather - i loves blues, teals, greens so it was a perfect fit!

My fiance's son will be our ringboy!

I remember at one time when I was young and knew "everything" I actually turned down dating a guy because he had a child. If I had made that same choice this time, I would not have met the man of my dreams, the man I will marry. On my wedding day not only will I become a wife, I will also become a stepmom to an eight year old boy. I first met Owen when he was 5. It wasn't always easy at first and I never wanted to force him into liking me. We've been through the phases were he wanted mommy and daddy to be married, despite the fact that they were not together shortly after he was born and mommy has moved on. Through the years I have learned to love this little boy and can't wait to be his stepmom!

I heart this show.Gives you so many different ideas and weddings of all budgets

working towards 150..so much more I want to look at

We invited 54 and had 24 book. I am more than happy with a smaller wedding considering I wanted to elope!

Chocolate- like Banana Popsicles?

I have the current price sheet if you want me to email it to you.

Two weeks before final payments were due we sent out reminder postcards. I had them made at vista print, free promo for other things I had printed. I just wrote "we're so glad you will be joining us!! Just a reminder final paymets are due Oct 25!!" All guests were paid on time

I found everything in Sudbury, except for the ebay items. I'll keep my eyes open for you

Thanks ladies!! We only have 24 guests so that helped keep the cost down. Also trying to be the stress free bride and stay ahead on everything. So far so good

All great tips!

We are planning on doing customized bobbleheads for our cake toppers! Don't have a pic yet.

These are super great!!

Proud to say I finished my OOT Bubba Kegs today. Instead of bags, I have stuffed the bubbas with items our guests may need. I prewashed and made name tags from beads to avoid confusion pool/beach side. Each payday I bought one item on my list so it would't be such a big expense!!

I bought one off ebay (just to try) I found it hard to use my camera. Whenever I would turn on my camera, the lens would come out and auto close as soon as it hits the plastic. It is managable...with patience!!
