Hey girls!

FI and I had our engagement photos this weekend, it was so fun! We brought the doggies with us and had a great time... puts me back into the wedding spirit!
I've been so busy with work I just haven't had time to think about the wedding and planning, etc... but we had more fun than we thought we would.

 

MIL is also having a shower for us in a couple of weeks so that should be fun! A little daunting because it will be all of his family and I don't know them all very well but it's for both of us so he has to be there and a couple of my girls are going to come with so it should be a good time.

 

Capecodder: Your dress is beautiful! Congrats!!

Any photographer recommendations of someone you are bringing with you?  Are people paying photography fees and travel fees?  I have heard some photographers waive the photog fees but am curious as to what everyone else is doing?!

Us and another couple who will be getting married at the same resort bring photographer who took our engagement pictures. We pay 1300.00 each. Pretty much we pay for her and her hubby's travel and resort for 4 nights.

We're bringing 2 photogs (husband and wife) with us.  They're doing engagement shots, welcome dinner, unlimited wedding day and full day TTD.  We're getting all of the images with printing rights.  We're paying only their travel with our all inclusive group, and because of our numbers got one of their trips for free.  Pretty good deal!

PS, I had two people in my group cancel today due to "work issues".  When your group is only 18 people total, 2 people make a huge difference!  And now I have all this OOT stuff personalized for them, and nothing to do with it!  Of course they're all the way in Europe, so its not like I can just drop if off and at least make use of it!  So frustrating that people are so nonchalant and don't realize all of the detail and planning that goes into a DW!  Not to mention I already paid for an excursion for the two of them that will now go to waste as well!  Now I know where everyone else is coming from with numbers going up and down.  Just didn't expect this 72 days before the wedding! :S

1300 includes travel?  That's really good! Our trip alone is $1500 and then photog fees on top of that! We are looking at over 3000 likely

No fees just travel?  That is awesome!

It is 1300 each, so 2600 between two couples!  she takes all my dress fitting pics, bachelorette pics, wedding, ttd. I got pretty lucky being able to figure that one out, specially with those tight rules for outside vendors at sandals
