My Mom is still looking. I told her to keep it in our wedding colors and send me pictures. She wants to have a knee length dress as opposed to a floor length one so I guess it will be more on the casual side of things, which is totally fine.

Great call on pintrest. I feel better about the long veil on beach after seeing it in a few shots. I suppose I'll see next week when I go for my fitting if I stil like it.

Can any brides share if they had any form of entertainment at their reception? I know someone earlier on the thread had fire dancers... is anyone else thinking of doing anything unique? My FI and I were contemplating fireworks but the prices seem quite high for the length of show. Not sure if its in the budget quite yet..

Hahahah! Love it! Its ok to cheat once and a while! I had a bunch of sushi last night! Yumm! Now off to a full week of classes at the gym and NO carbs this week!

I have not recieved them yet, but I ordered the 15"x16" Teal Cotton Tote Bag but they were on sale when I ordered for 79 cents each. I will post pics as soon as they arrive!

I like them!! They are perfect for the beach, and as long as you are fine with the color then you are good to go! I also tried forever 21 in Calgary and Vancouver but they didn't have our colors

I also ordered my bags from: http://www.ingreetings.com/onwholortot.html Minimum order is $25 and they do ship to Canada. I paid $0.79 per bag. I am not going to put anything on the front of the bag, but am thinking of adding a tag or something like that to personalize them. Hope this helps!

No I tried. It wouldn't let me I am going to try to use FI's sis' credit card and address in Seattle to ship to...sorry for the false advertising.

I know! I was so distressed about putting the GM and BM in contrasting colors, but now that I've seen it I feel so much better!

Sorry ladies I just realized they only ship to the states and you can only use a US billing address

Hey Ladies! I started my own version of the Atkins/Low Carb diet after not having any results with what I considered to be a "Healthy diet" and fairly regular exercise. I lost 20 pounds so far but have basically hit a plateau over the last month or so. Summer definately doesn't help as my FI and I have had lots of friends and family visiting and going to a lot of dinners out etc. I have been trying to get back into exercising 5 days a week doing different classes at the gym all the time. It has been too hot to run outside lately and I get way too bored on a treadmill. Hopefully I can overcome this plateau and loose another 10 punds or so before Jan. I am also worried because I have my dress fitting this month so I cant loose too much after that right? I guess I could always have it altered again if necessary? hmmm...

Jan 17, 2013 at Now Jade in Mayan Riviera, Mexico! So excited!!

I ran into the same issue when I was looking to book our ceremony at the Pergola. The calander shown on their main website appeared as if several days were free. It wasn't until I emailed Pilar to book that she told me there was already weddings being held there for the time I was looking for. Mine is at 4pm. I think their calander fills up pretty quickly and they are just a little slower when it comes to updating the website...

Thanks so much for the great tip! I just emailed them. Fingers crossed!

Does Deisy have a different email contact? I am going pretty much one month between Pilars responses and it is KILLING me!

Oh no definately didn't know of a coupon! What coupon??

Great find!! my shipping was $12 though!

Dollarama had a bunch of tumblers at $1.25 each and they are turquoise! Super cute. They also had a few other colors.

My shoes. They are actually a bit darker turqoise in person.
