  1. I totally understand!!! You will find you think thru all that stuff when naming children as well. I had really considered naming my daughter Olivia, but her initials would have been OLD and I couldn't bare it
  2. @@travelgal78 Ditto, I hope your wedding day was beautiful. Please post pics
  3. Always love to hear why some change their name and not others? I always grew up hating my last name, so it was a no brainer for me HAHAH! If my children had my last name I wouldn't have changed it, but since they don't anyways it wasn't a big deal. It is a pain in the butt to change it and also costly! ugh! But you are right, saying husband, using your new last name, using your new signature, etc. is quite an adjustment.
  4. Beautiful style. I can't speak for your resort, have you read reviews in the threads and/or review section about the salon at your resort? All I can say is that, from my experience, those ladies know their stuff. I have shorter hair and she was able to do it in an updo! I had a hair trial more for me to see how it holds up in the heat, but it was totally unnecessary. Could you do a trial to help calm your nerves? But I would probably just read thru your resorts thread's to find some reviews and try to trust in those
  5. Also quite weird using my new last name. I once said my maiden name and then quickly said I mean 'bourque' hahahah!
  6. LOVE!!! I enjoyed reading your thread! I also got engaged on April 1st I am glad thru all of the things that happened to your and your family that you were able to come out the other side with a wedding date!!! November is all that far away now, yay!!! Your grandma is strong. Cancer is just so awful and it's enduring to hear that she is alive and kicking and well, kicking it's a$$ by the sounds of it. can't wait for more! and ps - your ring is gorgeous!
  7. I think the Catamaran is also more than enough - that is so awesome! your guests will love it. Have you considered putting the glasses on their ceremony chairs? Unsure if your ceremony is on the beach, but ours way and it was SOOOO bright. I brought some for the bridal party for 'fun' pictures and noone took them off because of the sun! Is the Superstore Wholesale just the 'real canadian superstore' ? or are we talking the 'canadian wholesale'? I also agree that Costco can be a hit or miss for this OOT type stuff.
  8. haha me too!! Mine is all spread out, but the girls encouraged me to do one before the wedding! I am guilty for opening an old planning thread and only looking thru the first page! gasp!
  9. I only know I was in Akumel because everything at the resort said so heheh! Is Akumel Bay just a bit farther? Like closer to Tulum?
  10. Good to know! I have many Fossil watches and haven't had an issue. We got the men Fossil shaving kits, so will see how fiance's holds up. EDIT: I mean my HUSBAND!! omg kim!
  11. Beautiful . Haha the arm fat. A fear I had as well. My seamstress said if it's the right size it won't have that -- I wanted her to take my bust in some and she said if she did I would have the buldge!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  12. Oh goodness I know . I'm just not coming out right with what I was trying to say. Sorry if that was taken the wrong way! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  13. Awe such a great story. That treehouse is the craziest thing - so romantic. I've never been to Ontario but could follow some glad you got the resort you loved in the end and your price from TO is awesome. Congrats Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  14. I just know how much work they put in so if you know you only intend to use one, I would feel bad to drag it out. That's all. Of course it's name of the game. I just wouldn't get them doing months and months work for nothing And of course this is none of my business lol you do need to feel confidence in the one you choose.

  15. Akumel has some large ones - grand sirenis, baha principe, grand palladium. All considered Akumel Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  16. Lots of people do them after they return. It's a good idea cause it's all there up front and not mixed among maybe pages Relax and just take it all in. It will be over before you know it Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  17. I'd pick one ASAP and advise the others. It's a lot of work to not get your business. Just to be fair to them. Maybe that's to sweet of me hehe. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  18. Immunizations was one I left way to last minute! If you need any. For receipts I had two envelopes. One for OOT items and one for decorations incase customs stopped me I could prove their cost. The wedding documents could prove it was for a wedding Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  19. I gots lots of ideas off here too Awesome on the shell. It's nice cause the holes are there for the ribbon and you don't have to worry about the glue Can't wait to see your thread. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  20. Hey I printed it off the internet. I googled 'map of Mexico' and chose that one based on the color. I just measured the inside of the box and then cut the paper. I used double sided tape and had the lid flat on the table ( spouse held it down so it didn't flop around) and I stuck it in. Haha was stressful but placed it on the first try Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  21. Everything looks great!! A $2000 Armani suit, he better have looked hot! hehe! Glad he found something he loved and can wear again! We bought the same nail files but I could only use the small ones as the large ones didn't fit in the cups. I have a tonne of them left over. I have saw those table number holders and you are right - they are like bricks. Will work great to weigh them down, as I did have some of my frames topple over until the wind settled!
  22. Even with the dollar? The outlet store is super cheap compared to the regular store. I almost fell over at the difference in price when I browsed a full price store. Honestly I've been to many outlets in USA and have never found a deal, when you factor in exchange it just isn't cheaper. This is in Vegas and seattle so maybe I'm missing the rock bottom outlet stores. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  23. I had a beach wedding but since it was the private beach there was large rock between the sand and the water. - ie wasn't the beach where you entered the ocean. Given that, it wasn't a concern for us. Our resort though did a good job of cleaning it away as it was never an issue when we were at the beach using the ocean. They left if on other areas though so I know this seaweed you speak of. I would assume all resorts would be good about cleaning it away. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
