I'm thinking of leaving a seat empty at the ceremony with a reserved sign? Is that tacky? What do you girls think?

that's sweet - maybe put a picture of him?

He came home from work like" I spent a few hours online looking at DW etiquette and AHR . Tell ,e what we should have in mind" . I almost burned myself cooking. Lol

 

Now as I write this he is sitting on his laptop reading out loud from DW websites.

 

Wooohoooo! Can it be? He just realized we are getting married and this is work!

aww! that's sweet and funny! glad he's getting into it!

I would rather hang a small pic of him from the bouquet.

I love that idea - I am going to do that for my dad. I wasn't sure how close Jali was to this friend to have him kind of "walk down the aisle" with her.

I am working with an agent whom gave me a few to resorts to pick from with the Beaches and Sandals being on the list.  I think the decision will be the Iberostar Rose Hall Suites. I will keep you posted I'm bout to take it in and rest my brain until tomorrow, or later on I shall say at this time. 

If Iberostar is your #1 choice, go for it. Even if Sunset is cheaper, splurge and go for the one with the better reviews - I wouldn't risk it. And it's going to be like a vacation - it doesn't have to be on a weekend - I think some ladies here getting married on a MOnday or Tuesday? My original date was taken too but I've gotten to like my second date ... it's all relative

Sorry to hear that - hopefully things will get better

ugh! I hope that doesn't happen! I'm about to send my Std out with the website info ... I even put on the Welcome page that "invites will be sent out but we hope you find everything you need to know here" and tons of booking travel info and a FAQs page!

Can I see your invites?  Oh gosh, these site makes me feel technically challenged! I can barely figure out how and where to reply. You want me to add a picture?? LOL If you can tell me how. I will try!!

Hello All, I'm very new to this site as of yesterday!!! I plan for a July 2014 destination wedding in Jamaica, but I myself have been started to feel overwhelmed with trying to pick a nice affortable resort!! UGGH!

Welcome! Congrats! !

in being fair to everyone i think we definitely need a sign up by date. of course we can all be friends and supportive but we need to find a last date to sign up in order to keep things in order with passing of starfish.

I totally agree especially with the group growing daily.

Omg!!! I think I'm gonna have a heart attack. So I guess me coming back from my site visits and throwing concrete numbers at my FI has lit a fire under his ass.

Amazing have him call mine

very thoughtful and a good way to honor your friend. I do not think its tacky....

I think that's a great way to honor too

So done here, I think Moody posted a site to organize all your address information for labels. Anyone know the site? Ladies I'm gonna start a FB page for us. Much easier I think

Great idea!

Well i was saving the photo for my bouquet for my grandmother. I was originally going to save the seat for my grandmother but I can't exactly save like 10 seats in the first row. But because this wound is so fresh and he's responsible for us being together and should've been a groomsman, i can manage to save him a seat, im not sure about photos, that's a bit much for me personally.

 

But I will include a flameless candle near my guest book table with a frame and a poem for my lost loved ones

[tyrebride2b2013]

LOL I know right! That link works.......   I'm a tad hesitant to join only because I still haven't told anyone (other then guest) that I am getting married....  Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Set up a separate account under rayndrop. Im trying to set up a separate account so I don't have to talk to my FB family

Its ok. I'm sooo fighting the urge shop today. I found out lastnight my mother will not be able to atten my wedding. Her dialysis is now going to be 3x week and vertigo is preventing her from flying. Maybe it will improve in the months to come

Praying for mom. All things are possible through prayer. .

I KNOW what I forgot....the FI stuff... So for the last 6 weeks I basically haven't even seen my FI b/c when we had a talk about how much money we still need for the wedding he's gone APE with saving.....it's ridiculious. I'm happy b/c we managed to just save $1,500 in two weeks because of it but it's summer time and I'd like to spend some times with him. He's worked so much overtime that I think I've spent one day with him in the last month and a half. I can't work overtime at work, it's only allowed if it's preapproved and for a special reason. Like in Nov I'll get some OT b/c of the budget books I have to do for the org.....which i HATE doing btw. But he seriously could pick up OT every day. His deductions from his check yesterday was more than I made in two weeks....that's sick.....anyways....that's all he has had input on for the wedding, other than the cost he could careless what goes on, except the crap with his father. We had another fight about that before I went out lastnight, think that was the reason I drank so much wine. I tried telling him if his father wants help that's great but he needs to tell him that we do not feel that it is healthy for an alcoholic to be in an AI resort.....he will not listen though and it's really starting to piss me off. He keeps swearing the man will screw up before and he'll have to uninvite him but my whole thing is what if he doesn't.......ugh......back to "working"

Love it saving $1500 that quickly. Maybe if he's better from now until wedding he'll be okay used to being sober. Or hopefully he screws up like FI says. But if he wants to atleast extend the invite to him I'm not sure how you can avoid that without fighting with FI

I'm sorry to hear that....that sucks! I've heard sometimes they can do dialysis off the reasort. My mother has paranoid schiz. and I'm afraid that her flying out of the country might "send her over the edge" so it's kind of hard. I'm hoping my grandmother comes so my mother can stay with her, b/c if she doesn't come idk what I'm going to do with my mother. Sometimes I wish only friends came to the wedding LOL

Hope your mom can be with grandma so she can attend. My brother has the same so I understand.

Good morning ladies. I made it. Off from work!!!!

Good Morning! Yay!

So I have been MIA..but I'm back!! Had some personal things to deal with. But in the words of Bob Marley...every little thing's gonna be alright!  I have A LOT of catching up to do. Last I read we were figuring out which starfish to buy for the starfish sharing! I am way behind haha

Welcome back.hope all is well
