    The wedding is still in the planning. We were going to go to Mexico to get married because neither one of us have a mother (they have both passed away from cancer) and to me that will just leave a huge hole in the wedding not having a mother or the bride or groom so planning has been hard. But after all the drug lord stuff we would rather go to FL so my daughter can come too! I want a nice relaxing wedding on the beach with a few friends and my amazing daughter giving me away. I want a simple wedding gown with my rock and roll hubby wearing his white shirt and bandanas!  But plans are still in the making  :)

    So you don't know where or when your wedding is... but you have a photographer?  I smell fish.

    Hi. I'm Laurie and we are working on getting married on 11-11-11...its easy for him to remember. My soon to be hubby is in a rock and roll band in Dallas. They had a show at City Taver (a bar in Dallas, TX) on NYE and in the middle of his show he called me up to the stage and proposed in front of the whole bar! It was pretty amazing and sure not something i will ever forget!

    You may want to get the ball rolling on planning as 11-11-11 is one of the most popular wedding days and most who have it booked it last year sometime. How did you book your photographer if she doesnt know where or when she will need to photograph your wedding.
  • edited December 2011
    If it's on 11-11-11 you best get on the phone.  Most places and vendors are already booked for "specialty" dates like that.  Good luck to ya.  Also, you are less than 6 months out - go dress and invite shopping like yesterday. :P
  • edited December 2011

    Just so you know, I went to Mexico on my HM last year and also about 2 weeks ago and the drug war thing is blown way out of proportion.  Unless your planning on getting married in a border town then you really have nothing to worry about.

    Is Suzie going to travel to Florida with you?

    I meant to comment on this too.  I am in Mexico right now and have been since Sunday.  We even walked around downtown Cancun for about 3 hours yesterday and have not once felt endangered or unsafe.

    Laurie, I sure wish you would have started with THIS! Sometimes, when we have new faces to the board and a certain vendor is shoved down our throats it is difficult to see past the publicity to the real person. It leads us to believe that you are not who you say you are...
    But welcome. I wish you the best of luck planning a wedding from afar, and hopefully your magnificent photog will be traveling with you to Florida to capture the festivities. Cheers!

    We are always willing to help. We have a convenient sticky note at the top of the board with vendor recommendations, although if you are getting married outside of the DFW area it may be of little help.
    So far, based on your post, I'm really not sure what type of help you are specifically looking for...

    Very sorry about your loss.  I lost my mother too, so I understand. I sure hope that your friend gives you encouragement too over this situation.

    No one is giving you greif.  Your intro and timing are just really fishy with everything that we've had going on lately.  If you're real, please stick around - we are a friendly bunch.  But if you're a vendor, please move on.

    Also, I can ASSURE you that no one is "here to be mean and hurtful."

    We don't mean to be mean or hurtful.  If you will read a few threads down, we have been having problems with vendors (namely photographers) posing as brides to promote their business.  So can you see how your first post could be misconstrued?  Everyone is just a little on guard and feeling a little obligated to do a little super sleuthing.  Plus the girls on here stick pretty close together so forgive us if it seems like we are ganging up on you.  We are super friendly and helpful I promise!

    Welcome and Congrats! Your engagement story sounds exciting!

    Ditto this. 

    In any event, welcome and if you need help you can always ask.  Most people introduce themselves first and not their photographer.
