Him I wonder if we would get back more in taxes if we did it this yr...since we plan on using tax money this might be something I look into and wouldn't have thought of it before this post lol

We will be getting married prior to avoid the added stress

I think the biggest factor will be getting people to book. Although I had a very hard time deciding on a resort.

I am may 6 2015 and also plan for bamboo room...we are having prob 35-45 guests

Hopefully this makes everything easier to pack. Anyone know if children also get this limit? I have my 2 kids coming and no shame in taking up their luggage space if needed lol. Their clothes are smaller then mine

Not sure how cruises work but I sympathize. We are doing an all inclusive resort and dinner for anyone 25+ guest is 53 a plate...for food we already paid for plus 15/hr open bar for any extra time. Crazy

Who is everyone using for catamaran. If budget allows I am thinking of doing this. Prices?

I like the flashlight idea! I always bring one but I noticed I'm the only one of our group to usually have it so I think I will include them

I am contemplating getting small bottles and making room bags instead of individual...not sure which would be cheaper though

Hey are great gifts...I'm struggling to find something more affordable as I have 5-6 ugh lol

Omg your bags look amazing

Following this thread for ideas cuz I'm clueless lol

I am unsure if I will do a registry...I guess if anyone suggests it I will like if my bm hint on a shower, but even when I had my daughter I was hesitant for a registry but was talked into it by family lol. We already have a house together so the normal registry stuff we already have

I'm just doing the white...I figure the background of the beach adds enough color and the bm dresses and flowers. Plus I'm trying to conserve funds lol

I cannot find anything coral locally, artificial flowers, ribbon, any decor really. It's either orange which I hate or pink which I love but not for my wedding really....I have coral in my head lol. We are using the spa blue color for bridesmaids but I wanted coral chair sashes and coral flowers...I'm scared if I do a bouquet from the resort they won't have coral and then my sashes would clash. Anyone else go thru this and it all work out? If I go with resort flowers it will cost me about 250-300....if I go to a website it seems it will cost more to have artificial bouquets made cuz my wedding package already covers bride, 2 bm, 2 boutenneires (spelling off I know), I feel like this is one of my last big decisions and in stuck. Advice and sympathy welcome lol

We are paying for ours too...my parents bought my dress though but that's the only help we are expecting

Good info to have...it's hard figuring out what to spend where so this helps

I was thinking of doing a BBQ too as I can't justify a big party. It looks like everyone had. Great time

acw271011 i'd be hesitant to have the gf involved like that because what happens if they break up and he gets a new serious gf...I feel like it would be awkward to have your wedding pics and album have her all over it but that might just be me. Since you want some coral or pink maybe your bouquet and then a flower in your hair. And then do chair sashes and flower petals in coral. That's what we are likely doing because the girls will be in spa blue

Staten Island bride...foundy dress at David's bridal in nj tho

Wish I was royalty lol

Lol yea I understand that. I am too scared I will fall inl love with something out of my reach so I cut myself off. The fact I loved something under 1,000 with alterations total bonus!

I plan on trying to conceive right after wedding. My son is 9 and our daughter 3 so I want them close in age. We miscarried before the engagement so now we are putting off trying for the wedding which at first bothered me but now I'm happy with the decision

I like your first choice best....I am refraining from even looking since we ordered mine already and I love it. I am not an easy person to shop so since I love it I will take it and move on to the next planning step lol

Vitamins to help with bait and hair growth...exercise...and trying to stop biting my nails! Lol luckily I have time bc my fingernails are horrendous
