I'm an April 2010 bride too. I'll be getting married April 9 at RIU Emerald Bay in Mazatlan.

We have stuff going on almost every night. My new job is recruiting for a small biopharma company. I like it but it's a long commute and I just don't feel like i have much time to myself.

Oh No.. really you didn't like the bags from Vista print? may I ask why? I just ordered 10 today from there!!!!
I have a huge list of items you could choose from it if would make it easier for you. Off the top of my head... I say the #1 best thing every bride on here said was a big hit was the travel mug (I'll just list what i am putting)
Spanish for dummies, lip balm with spf (I even order return add labels and put 2 per on the lip balms so it has our name and date, got they labels for free just paid shipping) first aid kit, aspirin,shot glass for men, fans for girls, brochure with all the info of restos, wedding time line, events planned for the week, Guest room #'s , resort map, hand cream and sanitizer, klneex, Aloe.
I was thinking of putting a deck of cards, but I think it's enough. I still have to transport it there!!!
I am sure after the holiday's not having to worry about Xmas it'll all fall into play, plus we are all here for support!

Sounds like an interesting position. the last job I had was far from home, a lot of hours never saw the FI friends or family (turned to be very depressing) so I can relate, but I hated the job, so if you do keep it up I am sure it'll get better when you get a little more use to it.

Awww... thanks guys! I had an awesome birthday, thanks. FI made me dinner and surprised me by baking me a cake (he's no chef so this was a big surprise) and it was great. I was very spoiled.

tesha - welcome to the site and to our thread! I can't remember who it is, but I know that you've got a wedding date twin on here somewhere! The reason I remember is because that is also my dad's birthday (and coincidentally one week before my wedding!).

 

You'll find absolutely everything you need - and more - on this site so have fun!!

I bought my at avon, I had gotten them at $2.49. I am almost positive you can go to wal-mart and get them pretty cheap for the travel size (I saw them there for the same size, maybe a few cents more $$)
Do you know of a avon dealer? I can try to find you one in our area.

caribbean lover- great ideas!!!! def throwing aloe in my oot bags.

 

Here's my list so far, but I do still have to do some pricing so we'll see what actually makes it in!

hand sanitizer

applerum sample

Thank you so much for this.

It's not that I don't like the Vistaprint bags. I've just done several different designs and I don't know which one to use...I have a giant box of vistaprint stuff I've done for free and I don't know what to do with it!

I haven't even thought about an event timeline or anything like that. when I come home from work, I eat, go to the gym if I'm home early enough and pass out. In the next 3 weeks I have 4 holiday parties, 2 dinners and 3 doctor appointments. I'm taking off between Xmas and New Years so I'm hoping I can get some stuff done/ordered, etc.

I just keep looking at the ticker and keep counting down the days. I just want the wedding to be here!
