so excited, I bought my dress today! These next 8 months cannot come quick enough! What I would give to be in Mexico right now instead of the cold!

@@lynne1609, that is a great question about the lights! @@JenniferH114, is there any sort of lights at the top of las olas? This way we know if we need to bring something!

So, I joined weight watchers today. I had a friend who convinced me to go to a meeting and this new program they are doing seems to be pushing people towards proteins and away from sugars/bad things which is EXACTLY what I need. Starting a new place tomorrow for spin classes- can't wait to get back to it! Have a great weekend everyone!

HI ladies! I just stumbled across this board tonight. This website has been a godsend! So, I'm going to join in on all this! I really need to get my ass back in shape! I want to feel comfortable in my clothes again! My overall goal is like 50 lbs. Its amazing where it hides! I signed up for spin classes at a new gym and I have my first class Saturday and I'm heading to a weight watchers meeting with a friend tomorrow. She lost 60ish lbs in the past and still goes for motivation, so she is going to be my moral support tomorrow! I did spin and MFP religiously for 6 weeks last year and lost 15 lbs and then met my now fiance! Lots of drinks and dinners out and the weight is back, so I'm ready to get my butt back in shape! If anyone is on MFP, my user name is vanessajfelice, so feel free to add me!

I would love to know that also! We just today confirmed Las Olas as the spot for our reception! Getting really excited! If only these next 8 months flew by! Ha!

Wow, thanks for the replies! We actually have a location and date booked. We are doing the excellence Riviera cancun on sept 22. Actually our guests should be able to start booking today or tomorrow! Now that it is the same year as the wedding, I'm starting to get stressed! It will be here before we know it! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I am so glad I found this forum! I read through EVERY page before I posted a reply just to make sure I read everything! We are getting married Sept 22 at ERC. Just got our contract back the other day for our group rates, so guests should be able to start booking on Monday! I cannot wait, once people start booking, it will feel more real. We are working with Weddings by Funjet so they will be our go between with the hotel. Hopefully now that this contract is done, we can start planning the fun stuff, like location, flowers , decor!

Hello there! My name is Vanessa and I'm super new here. Just starting to plan a destination wedding for September and we have our location picked out, but other than that, nothing! Any tips that anyone wants to share about planning a destination? Did you go down before for a site visit? Any websites to get welcome bag things, or anything you DIY'd that was amazing?? Thanks!
