The date for our honeymoon trip has been set. We will be leaving for Hawaii on Thursday May 27, 2004. We can't wait to spend 13 days of relaxation in Kauai, Oahu and Maui.

Finally our engagement photos have been published. For a little surprise, place the mouse on top of the engagement photo that is located in our home page.

Keep checking our website, wedding photos will be published soon.

We are back! We hope everyone had a wonderful time, Darren and I had a blast; what a terrific time we had. We enjoyed our wedding celebration from beginning to end. The ceremony, the food, the drinks, the flowers, the centerpieces, the linens, the candles, the wonderful location (the beach, the ocean, the sunset), the cake (it was delicious), our wonderful guests (close friends and family) and the music - we danced, and danced and then - we danced some more. We could have not asked for anything more.

So much love!!!! The good wishes, nice notes, messages, and the generous and thoughtful gifts that we have received. We are so grateful for everything.

My mom looked so beautiful and so did the entire wedding party: the bridesmaids, groomsmen and the kids: Megan, Paula and Dallas.

The flower girls dresses were so beautiful, the girls loved their dresses and our bridesmaids looked so great - each one of them on a different dress. All dresses had the same color (that wonderful deep sapphire blue color.), same fabric and were made by the same designer. Click on each bridesmaid name to see their dresses: Evelyn, Daya, Laurie and Lorraine.

They also changed the time of the non-stop flights - from The Dominican Republic to Boston - from 1:45 PM to 5:25 PM.

We wish you all a safe and pleasant trip.
