I agree you look great in this dress.. it's beautiful..

Welcome Back Rayn, you are very lucky the board has been very quiet so you don't have tooo much to catch up on... Are you registering for the honeymoon registry? I am going to check it out..

Wouldn't it be great if they were paying for everything. Boy must have been nice back in the day when parents paid. But, then maybe not because that gives them too much say so Have you tried a TA they can help you narrow down choices. LOL!! I can imagine.. Heck any mother is probably gonna be a pain for her first and last born boys...

That might explain the family. .his first marriage and baby boy double whammy. .lol.. I'm not sure you can win this battle to easily

Congrats to you! Very pretty Dress! !

It'll come in no time.. this site is so addictive. Venting is perfectly acceptable here we support each other..as for FI family sorry you have to go through it all of us are in some way. You guys have to be stern your day your decision. Hard as I t may be. Is this FIs 1st wedding? You mentioned your 2nd. If his first maybe that's why he finds it hard yo say no to family. Hope all works out:-) Lol..so true

Yes two different people. The TA doesn't really coordinate the wedding itself just travel resort stay things like that. Talking to resort on your behalf. However some TA' s go above and beyond and help in all aspects. My WC was also assigned to me when i booked a date was set for a conference call with an on site coordinator immediately. If you are having on site once your date is set I'm sure they will contact you. If off site you might want to start looking for an off site coordinator. My island isn't very large and when I was thinking of doing off resort there were only about two I believe to choose from.

Make sure you share pics with us..

Yes that's good not all at once

I sooo wanted to go there too but didn't want to take the drive. .just being lazy.. you should get what you love..

LMAO okay

Did you post the template?

I wanted to do mine about a month after then realized I might not have the pics/videos back yet which I want to display so I have to clarify how long it takes to get back. . Don't tell him until you have all the money saving tips and ideas in place yet so you can say look honey it will only be this amount and look how much I saved doing this. Lol

It does seem like it's gonna be a blast. Is it going to be at your home? How soon after wedding will you have it?

Hell I wish too! !

I think your dress is beautiful as is. You should go with your gut. If you felt it was the dress than it is. Don't let other opinions tell you what you want. I am so sick of my family and friends telling me what type of dress goes with the beach and how I can't wear a traditional dress. I am going to wear what I want. You should too

Welcome! Congrats on engagement! Great group here

Love your AHR idea sounds fun. I would love that kind. Now now shug, I wasn't saying you only..lol.. My stay alone is running me over $10k with us and the kids but there are a lot of us. I am definitely do not have the financial means as a lot of you brides. So I have to cut cost wherever I can. I did pay for STDs because I wanted to get them out so guests could olan accordingly. I agree shug's plan is one to stick by. I don't think it's bad o invite who you want but it can go either way.because it is a DW not as man will probably come. But you know your friends and family so you have to do what's best for you. The boards have great DIY threads for everything that are very resourceful. They will definitely help out. Great job on the passport and confetti. Get to punching. .lol

Welcome Stef, and congrats! Do you have a month picked? Dw planning is more stressing than I imagined it to be but this board is great. We laugh vent scream hereto let out our frustration. Also help each other with ideas thoughts and opinions. DIY tough indeed im so not crafty. Trying to do invitations on my own now but don't no how great that's gonna be..That being said we do have talented ladies who are more than willing to help. Are you doing OOT bags. The girls are obsessing with those. Warning the shopping peer pressure beware. .lol We also want to do AHR but only if we come up with a reasonable priced event. Have some elder family on b oth sides who are pushing it since they won't be joining us. We would like to show the video and pictures

Wow, that's brilliant love the charity idea

Oh okay I like that idea

I love bed bath and beyond. What is a honeymoon registry?

I don't even have a registry. I guess I should have some type done. I am going to put those on my list as well. Gonna need all the help I can get packing up. Are all you ladies registered somewhere? if so where are you registered?

Love this too cute! Lol. Where did u say your dress is coming from?

I didn't think of anything new but guess my dress or shoes or jewelry. My borrowed is my cousins veil. Syill no old or blue That's beautiful love that from gggrandma. LMAO! ! That's so special he is gonna love that Very pretty and only $35extra. Great deal You will be missed
