We are staying at the same resort the whole time but we get there about 3 days before all the guests come down which will be a nice little break.

9 months!!! That is so exciting!! I just got a new planner/calendar last night and I started filling in all the wedding dates and it go SUPER real!!

 

Have any of you ladies booked you plane tickets yet? Also, how long in advance do you plan on starting the alterations process on your dress? I only ask this question because I had my first "dress nightmare" last night!!! I hope they don't become an every night thing!

I will need some major alterations as well, but I'm still hoping to "tone-up"! The boutique I bought my dress from said it wouldn't arrive until November too and it came in last month, so maybe yours will be early too!! I'm not sure if I read this or not but are you using a TA?

I've been looking at flights, figure we'll book our around 6 months out.  Just going to keep aclose eye on pricing.  Many of our guests have never traveled int'l so they'll need a lil assistance on when to book too! 

 

As for my dress, I ordered closer to the end of June, said it would be in in 3-4 months but they will hold until my first alterations appt on April 4th.  Unfortunately (but fortunately) I went to the flagship store in NYC to order my dress, it's a 5 hour drive each way so I can't just swing in to see it.  No nightmares and fingers crossed they don't mess it up, don't think they will...
