I have tried calling churches (no response), emailing prists (no response) and our wedding planner at the resort will not help us with this. Any advice would be so helpful! Thank you!

You two look so adorable - who wouldn't want to go to your wedding!?! =) The magnet is super cute too - you should have an etsy store. These are fresh and modern. I hope you'll also share your invitations! Oh my Gosh – those might be the cutest save the dates I have seen!

Such beautiful pictures! I wish I had seen your post before our wedding. I've never heard of that suit but it sound perfect! We really struggled with picking outfits for the men. I think they ended up in Tommy Bahama shirts and khakis which was 'ok'. My husband wore a jacket for the ceremony and then changed into a Tommy Bahama for the reception. And what a great idea for the flower girl sash! I love that dress. Mermaids are still my favorite dress shape - I'm surprised you started so much against them. (Especially with a figure like yours - wow! I'd want to show it off!) Some get pretty severe but I think mine was kind of a modified mermaid. What a great post! Such beautiful pictures!

Are you looking to charter them privately or join a scheduled outing? If you are planing to charter them privately they may do Sunday. (I seem to remember a private charter making sense even if you have only 20 people.) If you want to join a regularly scheduled outing, it looks like Jolly Pirates might have a couple on Sunday. (Their ship is bigger and was a lot more expensive to charter privately.) I've heard good things about them too. I emailed them both when I was doing my research and one thing I remember is them both speaking kindly about each other. When I asked why I should choose theirs over the other, they insisted we would have a great time whichever we chose. http://www.jolly-pirates.com Hi Shana – looks like you’re right – I’m surprised Mi Dushi does not have regularly scheduled excursions on Sunday!

My bouquet I think was almost all cymbidium. I was not happy with some of my flowers but those were the best - I loved that bouquet! I'm glad you can get your peonies! I never thought to ask about those. October is probably the wrong season though. I did consider hydrangeas and was first told they were available and then when I wanted to order them was told they would wilt in the heat. I was a little disappointed but just two weeks ago my husband bought me a bouquet that had hydrangeas and they were the first to wither. I'm glad I didn't learn that at the wedding!
