I think it's important to give him a list of people to ensure he gets as candids. That way you don't end up with 50 shots of your hot friends and none of your grandma or your Great Uncle Joe....

Details of your hair from the back before it gets wrecked by the wind or dancing and before you put your veil on if you are having one (if you are having it up - it's cool to have those photos, because YOU don't really get to see it).

Can he take photos during the ceremony? I love pictures of people in the congregation, as you are saying your vows.

That's all I can think of!!

I would love to BUT on June 21st I'm flying to Saskatoon. Hey baby!! Freedom!! lol

Canadians Visiting the USA while undergoing the visa process, my free advice:

1) Always tell the TRUTH. never lie to the POE officer

2) Be confident in ur replies

3) keep ur response short and to the point, don't tell ur life story!!

4) look the POE officer in the eye when speaking to them. They are looking for people lieing and have been trained to find them!

5) Pack light! No job resumes with you

6) Bring ties to Canada (letter from employer when ur expected back at work, lease, etc etc)

7) Always be polite, being rude isn't going to get ya anywhere, and could make things worse!!

8) Have a plan in case u do get denied (be polite) It wont harm ur visa application if ur denied,that is if ur polite and didn't lie! Refer to #1

So we were just sitting out on the patio and talking about being in Florida - and I said to my Husband that I still look at people here as 'different'. When a person would walk down the street in Calgary I was comfortable with that person, I 'knew' that person.

Here I see someone and they are 'different', they are .... hard to describe.

So he says 'you are an American'. I say no, I am a Canadian with some American paperwork.

It's funny because when I was a teenager I went to an American School overseas. Then - I wanted to be an American - now I am a Canadian.

Anyway, I then broke in to song, singing O Canada, which was really really lovely :lol:

If I could post a .wav file here i'd sing it for you guys :hehe:
