We didn't have the choice of a lobster dinner, must be a new choice. We had seafood salad, tres consomme, fillet mignon with potatoes and vodka 1000 leaves. It was all amazing. I'm sure the lobster will be excellent as well.

My STD cards went out this weekend! I just had to tell someone because I was so stressed over them and I am so happy they are mailed! I am excited to see who I hear back from!

 

I joked with my FI when I had all the stamps on and we were standing in the post office lobby, I said, "Are you sure you want to mail these? There is no turning back now, if these go out you are stuck with me!"

 

Lucky for me he wanted to mail them, lol.

Was there ever any Doubt?!

Congrats...that is a big step in the details!!!

[Shay2679]

I missed you guys...and just needed to post!! LOL

 

I've just been planning the last little details for decorations at our AHR the weekend after we get back from Mexico. I bought some fake diamondy things for all the tables (we're having a Hollywood Romance theme - and I thought these would glam it up a bit)!

 

The RSVPs are starting to trickle in for that event...but the suggested deadline in the invites was March 20th...and we've only received...well, less than half! I guess I start calling next weekend!

 

I've also taken a huge step towards...fashion (?) in the sense that, after wearing glasses for 20 years...I've gotten contacts! For our wedding pictures, I will wear my glasses during all the getting ready shots and such (as I've had glasses my whole life), but the main photos, I'll wear the contacts! I think in 20 years when I'm looking back at our wedding photos...they won't seem so dated this way! Am I lame?!

 

Anyways...I just needed something to report to my girls (and boy)!

 

Hope the rest of you are doing good! VERONICA...only 10 more days...no 9 more days!!! What day do you leave?!

 

xoxo

Hey Everyone,

 

We leave on Tuesday!! I am so excited that I started packing last weekend. Haha! I bought some fun new bikinis and some cute sundresses. Yay!!!

 

My FI's fam is flying on the same flight as us to Mexico. We are going to divide all the wedding stuff (OOT bags, etc.) in all of our luggage. Hopefully we won't have to may too much extra $$.

 

Zulma has been great about emailing me back within a few hours everytime I have a question---which is a great change.

 

I'll be sure to post a full review when we return. And, of course, I'll be around until Monday. If anyone can think of specifics that you need me to scout when I get there, just let me know.

[Shay2679]

Hey V...

 

I'm sure I could come up with a list of 100 Questions...but I would never waste your time like that!

 

One of the things...if you think of it...is...if you're on 5th Ave...could you just note the price of Maraccas for me?

 

I'm so excited for you, and I know your review is going to be nothing but stellar!

 

Good luck with everything...and I anxiously await your return (and envy every moment you're in that warm weather)!

 

[Oscar_Ernie]

Oh! All the excitement around here is making me really wish we were still having our wedding this summer! *sigh* Right now, I'm guessing it'll be more like 2011! *fingers crossed*

 

Well, in the meantime, I really do hope you all will come back and post reviews and pics so I can live vicariously through you! Wasn't there someone who got married in January? I searched for a review but couldn't ever find one. I'm really excited that there seems to be so many more of "us" choosing The Royal because there really aren't many reviews on here that I've been able to find!...ANYTHING to help hold me over! LOL

[Shay2679]

HI girls! Just doing my update...if I have missed anyone, please let me know!

The bride who was married in January was Sarah (SarahandTrevor), but she hasn't posted to the forum, I don't think, since just before they left.

 

Hopefully she'll come back and fill us in! I'm sure things have just been busy with them getting back and returning to a life NOT filled with Bridal stuff!

[tchuchuca]

I'm sorry I've been MIA lately! With the legal ceremony details (4/3), Mexico (4/17), and the AHR (4/25) planning- I've been SWAMPED!!! I promise I'll be more active once I get all my details ironed out!

[Shay2679]

NO worries darlin! Sounds like you have quite the handful there!

 

I'm in the same boat...sorting out the legal day details...Mexico details...and AHR the week after that...its a lot!
