Which one? Chinook? I've only ever been in the sunridge mall one. Thanks. Edit - lol actually you should just respond and tell me I'm out of time Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I found something like this but it was more expensive stuff. It is a smaller location so could be it . Thank you!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

We have very similar stuff I am packing now so I can let you know how it goes haha!! I believe I went fairly minimal too and I didn't want anything breakable.

We have Target's in Calgary but I went looking once for $1 bins and couldn't find any lol.... not sure if that is a USA thing or if I am just blind.

Thank you everyone.... everyone is so sweet Taking a break from packing -- I can be such a procrastinator!

I am not using raffia fans, but am using the white silk fans from Michaels. They are beautiful and an option for you if you can't find raffia fans but really want some sort of fan. I waited until Michael's had a 50% off coupon and I got 15 for $15 - so $1 each which is very decent!!! Here's a pic, excuse the ribbon - we ended up putting a tag on each fan.

LOL!!! he can have all the fun he wants back in the room. We aren't doing a garter toss, but I bought it as my 'something blue' before we decided that. I'll wear it and he can pull it off after he figures out how to get my wedding dress off!!

Cute!!! My garter is blue Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hey ladies, it was a big day!!! We are officially legally married... It was short and simple, but oh so perfect. Took all I had not to cry so I laughed some LOL!!! I had a hard time looking at Shawn. I can only imagine how emotional Mexico is going to be. I also picked up my wedding dress - LOOOOOOOVE it!!!! She did a fabulous job and I can't wait to put it on in Mexico I plan to start packing tomorrow and truly need to have everything done by Thursday... eeeeeeeee!!!!

Double digits!!! enjoy this time because it honestly goes soooooo fast!

I just wanted to say that I had my dress done at a seamstress outside of a bridal shop. It was Perfect Stitches in the Beddington Mall. She is FABULOUS!! I am soooo impressed with the work she did. She took my dress out which required a lot of bead work to be duplicated, she did a hem, and a french bustle for $325. I would highly recommend her.

I just got married with Lucy Miller and highly recommend her Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I truly hate to say this, but that is highway robbery! How do they get off? I was worried about sales tax but I emailed and was told all their prices include tax, so that is one email I will definitely print and bring with me!!!

$220 US or peso?? My resort charges $220 Pesos which is about $18 ish Canadian. I hope for your sake that's not US dollars cause wow Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

This is a slow thread but if you have any questions let me know I'll post my review in a couple weeks. Eek. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Welcome and congrats I sent my invites out to everyone at about 7.5 months out. My invite said where and when but directed them to our wedding website for TA info, prices, RSVP, and all other info for Mexico. We made the RSVP date the same as the booking deadline from the travel agent. After people paid their final Payment, about 2.5 months before the wedding, we sent a pre travel brochure which mimicked our webpage and had some extra info and each person got a luggage tag. That's all I did -- so everyone we wanted to invite got an invite but only people who were 100% paid and coming got the pre travel package. We picked our resort in may and are marrying in less 2 weeks. We leave in 8 days Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

They are on sale again at Canadian tire Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It's pretty darn close but not exactly the same. Maybe check to ensure you agree with me and/or it's enough but I think it's the same thing Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I am using the photography company affiliated with my resort, which is Adventure Photos. I did a lot of research into who their photographers were, I requested their work, etc. before making my choice and requesting a certain photographer. My other front runners, with very reasonable rates (I am a budget bride) were: -Bohemia Photography - Samual Luna I also loved the work of Bicoastal, Dean Sandersan, and Lancelotti These ones were in my price range...some more than others but for a budget bride they are all worth checking out.

hehe my dress has something like that as it's 3rd layer! I am such a bridal blonde with this stuff... Guess that is my tom boy side coming out!

What is a petticoat? I thought I knew but it isn't for under a dress

Wow I wish my resort's spa was that cheap!!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
