Ok. I thought I had everything set. Our BEO was done, and we were happy with it, and then I get thrown for a loop yesterday.

Barry got home from his parents house (he'd gone there for thanksgiving) and calls me to tell me that his nephew is now coming to the wedding too.

I'm like WHAT? We already were scrambling figuring out what to do with the Pontoon boat cruise, and now this puts us way over. Then Barry informs me that his Brother and Sister-In-Law might come too.

Sure it's nice that they're going to make it. But we counted on them not going. They had sent their reply card back stating not attending.

I called Kona Cafe to bump up our reservation, and the girl informs me that we will be sitting at multiple tables, and they can't guarantee that they will be near each other :scared1:

I was on the phone with Karen yesterday scrambling as we now have to book a reception room. Karen couldn't find any immediate availability for that date, and said she'd try to get back to me late yesterday or today.

I haven't heard from her yet, which I'm taking as not a good sign. I don't know what to do. I'm thinking maybe I'll rent a 2 bedroom or Grand Villa at one of the DVC resorts and have something catered in. Does anyone have any experience with this?

Sorry you are having so much stress!!
As a DVC owner I have to say that renting a Grand Villa at this late stage will probably be out of the question :sad2:
Perhaps the other girls are right and a restaurant may be the answer
Good luck!!!
 
That is great you've got something sorted and even better that it is something you like so much.
 
Oh yay! I am glad you got something sorted out. A former co-worker had an escape wedding with a dinner at Flying Fish and raved about it!!:goodvibes
 

The flying fish looks so pretty! It was one of my top choices, since the decor inside looks so amazing! I'm sure it will be wonderful for you!!

PS. Did you participate in Oktoberfest? I couldn't make it this year...:sad1:
 
I am glad you found something you like!! Good luck with every thing its so soon!
 
Your new dress is lovely. I think it was sensible to put the other dress behind you and to move on with just 3 weeks to go.
 
oh its lovely:lovestruc Maybe the dress just wasnt meant to be? Look at it from the bright side, you have a new dress now, and you are leaving in 3 weeks. At this time the last thing you should be worrying about is the darn shop who made a mess of your dress, you have a new dress, it will be perfect. I hope that from this day now, you will be happy and nothing will go wrong. You dont deserve to be going through this right now, so you have to be strong.

Oh and yeahy for the flying fish! that place looks wicked!!

show us some piccys of you in your dress when it comes if you can!

I just stumbled across your PJ- don't know how I missed it before:confused3 Anyways I can't believe how close your wedding is and I'm excited to hear about your experience at Flying Fish... we have never been but I've heard nothing but good about it:thumbsup2 I'm sooooo sorry about the dress drama but I have to say that the new dress is STUNNING, I really liked the other one but this one is jaw dropping:goodvibes
 
I love the new dress! I can't beleive how soon your wedding is! You must be getting so excited!
 
I love your new dress!!! Your wedding is so soon can't wait to see pictures
 
Thanks everyone!

Wow! I haven't posted in awhile! I've been so crazy busy with overtime at work and wedding plans!

I picked up my dress after my final fitting yesterday. I LOVE it! I did not want to take it off, I felt like such a princess in it. My mom was just gushing. The song "Your Beautiful" came on while I had it on in the shop, and my mom was like "how appropriate".

7 more people have now been added to our guest list bringing our total to 19 (including us). Quite a change from our original plans of just the two of us getting married on the beach in Jamaica!

Barry's work transfer came thru. He'll be working just outside of town in Cambridge, so we're we're pretty excited about that. Today was his last day at work in Saskatoon, and I'm leaving shortly to pick him up at the airport in Toronto. He'll officially be here for good tonight!!! I'm so excited! :goodvibes

I can't believe we're leaving in two days! I swear tomorrow will be the slowest day EVER at work. I'm not quite sure how I'll make it thru, lol.

In less than 48 hours I'll be at Disney!!! YAY!

Ohh, that is so exciting! I can't wait to see pics of you in your dress!!

I feel so connected to Barry! I was born in Saskatoon...and now live 10 mins from Cambridge :rotfl:

That is so exciting that he will be in Ontario tonight! You must be so happy! And yay for 2 more days (and yes, tomorrow will probably be slow at work, lol)
 
How exciting! It'll be here before you know it! Love the new dress, it's stunning! I'm sorry you had to go through all that with your old dress but so glad it worked out for the best.
 
I cant wait to see your new dress! I bet you look amazing in it!!!

Everything will turn out perfectly. After all you have been through, you deserve the most wonderful magical day ever.

If you dont get the chance to get back on here, i hope you have the best time of your life and i cant wait until you get back to share all your happiness with us! (and photos!!)
