Thread: Getting married jan 2012 in cuba

Hello everyone, my name is Laura and I am getting married in Cuba in January 2012 and I have to be a size 10 by then (currently a 16) because I have bought a size 10 wedding dress!!! I started on exante and lost 15.5lbs and now have switched to low carbing as exante was becoming too difficult for me. I am really happy low carbing and feel great...just have to drop the pounds now

Cuba! How exciting Well done on the weight loss so far and good luck with the rest!

Thanks margarino!! I'm really excited already I have my dress and sorting out hairstyles :-)

Wow that is super organised! I haven't even booked the venue and i am getting married this July!!

I never thought I'd be like this but I'm super excited now to the point of boring everyone with all the talk of it lol I've even looked at jewellery for the day! Oh god kill me now!

hehehehe ditto!! I come on here to talk about the wedding now because otherwise i'm sure my fiance will kick me out the house

Yeah my fiancé switched off at shoes lol I've been looking at irregular choice ones!! I even bought a wedding ideas magazine can you imagine!!! I never thought id be one of those girls! I've still got ten months to go so I'm sure people are gonna be really tired of my taking about my wedding so I've stopped talking about it on my diet diary lol

I just find there is so much more to think about when you opt out of the "traditional wedding", which equals so much more to talk about! So what is your dress like? I wasn't brave enough to order mine in a 10 so i went for 12, i went today to do the final measurements and have only got a couple of inches left to lose to fit into the 12 - was so so pleased

Wow that's brilliant!!! You must be well pleased... Mines is actually a two piece but very simple and ivory, I wanted something light too so it's chiffon material. I guess I don't really have that much to plan in the broad spectrum of things but it's nice to start somewhere and feel like I'm doing something lol I think I will buy our rings next...

I made the mistake of falling in love with a ring that i absolutely cannot afford! Its a beautiful antique looking ring from the US which is perfect as the whole wedding is vintage (and so is my engagement ring).
Here are the ones i liked the best:

Wow!!! They are amazing!! How expensive is expensive tho? I'll just be having plain White gold band to match my engagement ring... I'm not really a flashy person and I like simple things. My fiancé is really outdoorsy too so I think it's best to get something cheap incase he loses or damages it.

Well i think they are about £700-£1000, which is much to much to be spending on a ring! I've budgeted £500 for the both of us.

We are getting titanium rings I've just looked online they are very cheap and last forever/ very hard metal and very scratch resistant lol ever the practical person I am!!

Hi teetiefunk

just having a look at your diary due to the cuba reference. we're looking at getting married abroad, but have no idea where to start (i.e. shipping my dress, how to organise at a venue i wont see until i get there, eeek, which country???) any advice would be appreciated...did you get the wedding in a package with the holiday? thanks
