K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	July '08 filers	Sorry we've been MIA- things have been SO hectic lately! Congrats on the grandkid, Cham and on the wedding Juliette! You look stunning! We had our nonlegal Barcelona elopement last week. I only have two pictures to share, but here they are! The photographer said the rest should come in next week. Our legal courthouse wedding is tomorrow morning! Then I'm a Mrs.! Yay!	Terri and Seb	Not Telling	United Kingdom	2009-03-12 23:12:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	July '08 filers	Sebastian's POE was a breeze, although I'll let him type more about it later. I'm still in disbelief that the separation is over! We're getting our marriage license first thing in the morning- here's to hoping it all goes smoothly. Best of luck to all of you- I'm so glad it looks like all of us have at least passed the NOA2 barrier!	Terri and Seb	Not Telling	United Kingdom	2009-03-08 23:50:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	July '08 filers	Sebastian's POE is tonight and I am really, really nervous. I thought I would be jumping off the walls excited, but instead I'm petrified that he's going to be really sad about leaving home and I won't be able to comfort him .

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	July '08 filers	Phew, just got done catching up with this thread! Congratulations on the approval, PB&Jam, Mohammedwalks and anyone else I may have missed. Plus all the successful interviews and POE experiences! Yay! Barcelona was incredible and our nonlegal ceremony was stunningly beautiful. I'll post pics sometime this week. POE is on Saturday!	Terri and Seb	Not Telling	United Kingdom	2009-03-06 01:08:00

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	July '08 filers	In fun Terri-news, I have bronchitis and I leave for Spain the day after tomorrow. . Try to keep your head up, Cham. You two have come so far, and soon he'll be there to hold your hand through all of this.	Terri and Seb	Not Telling	United Kingdom	2009-02-25 21:23:00

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	July '08 filers	Glad you got your dress sorted- I'm sure one of the 3 will work! Our nonlegal wedding date is a week from today. Losing my mind!	Terri and Seb	Not Telling	United Kingdom	2009-02-24 12:47:00

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	July '08 filers	Our photographer's name is David McNeil. http://www.davidmmcneil.com/ He was willing to fly to California for around $1000 which included everything- his flight, hotel, plus a DVD with all of the edited images on it. He's young, and I think he's really looking to build his portfolio with destination weddings. I can post some of our engagement photos if you want to see more of his work, although we're on his website under 'prewedding shoots'. Good luck, TeeKol!	Terri and Seb	Not Telling	United Kingdom	2009-02-23 13:40:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	July '08 filers	My heart really goes out to all of you still in security checks . I check this thread every day and hope for your approvals- you're closer every minute if that's any consolation. (Ha, when I typed that I wrote 'consulation' instead of 'consolation'- a sign I spend too much time on VJ?). As for affordable wedding photography, I know some people have mentioned looking at local art schools to see if any students want to build their portfolios. If you don't mind me asking- what is your photography budget? Our Barcelona wedding photographer was going to charge us around £1000 to fly to California. He's amazing and I can give you his info if you're interested. We're having a small, intimate ceremony in the States too and we asked photographers for their hourly rates since we didn't need a full day's worth of coverage. Might be worth considering. We'll be paying $100 for an hours coverage and a dvd with all of the unedited images. Sorry to hear you're feeling down, Juliette. I don't think you're being complicated at all- moving to a new country is a huge life change and it's only natural to feel sad about leaving everything behind. America is a fresh start though, and I'm sure you'll be brimming with joy before you know it . As for me, my mini veil crisis is over. I found a gorgeous one at a consignment shop and although it was a bit more than I'd intended to pay- Sebastian offered to buy it for me! All is on track again.	Terri and Seb	Not Telling	United Kingdom	2009-02-22 00:38:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	July '08 filers	Thanks Corinthians! This is exactly why we're having the private, nonlegal ceremony in Barcelona with just us. I hate wedding planning. Unfortunately, Ebay isn't an option for the veil since I'll be on a plane in less than 6 days. haha. I'll figure something out! Even though it seems like everything is falling apart, I'm still trying to keep perspective. So what, my hair is a little short? We're very blessed to be where we are in this process and that's more important than all of this other nonsense. But we have to keep the thread going somehow, right?	Terri and Seb	Not Telling	United Kingdom	2009-02-21 12:21:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	July '08 filers	If you want drama, I'll give you drama! We leave for Barcelona in less than a week (yay!) but everything that can go wrong is going wrong. Or at least it seems that way. -I had a haircut yesterday and they made it MUCH shorter than anticipated, meaning I can no longer do my glorious updo and will now need a veil. I was astonished at how much veils cost! $200 to put a piece of fabric on my head? Give me a break. -My university messed up our housing situation for next year and now we are last on the signup list- meaning we're going to get a really crappy apartment next year. Great. -My little sister is refusing to come to our legal ceremony if her deadbeat boyfriend can't come. Family drama! -I still have that gum infection from 2 root canals last week, so my face is swollen and I look like Jay Leno. -Said gum infection smashed all of our bachelorette party plans since I couldn't go out and drink with the meds I was on. -We had a bachelorette party part 2 last night, now that I'm off the pain meds, and my cell phone got busted. Took me 3 hours in the shop and an unanticipated $200 and second contract to get a new one. -Not only do I have two exams next week, plus clinicals, but we still have to write our vows, pack for Barcelona, pack for our new apartment/move to the U.S. and attend my bridal shower. There's plenty more where that came from! I'm trying to keep my chin up, though. This time period is supposed to be stressful, right? Hope all is well with all of you!

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	July '08 filers	QUOTE (Cham @ Feb 19 2009, 01:54 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> HELP!!!! GRRR does he have to send in the noa2 WITH the packet 3 OR can that be taken to the interview OR does he need to the letter fropm NVC at all????????? I insisted that Sebastian bring the NOA2 with him to the interview, and they never asked for it or glanced at it so I'm not sure that it's a requirement at all. It wasn't for London at least. Deep breaths. It'll all be over soon!	Terri and Seb	Not Telling	United Kingdom	2009-02-19 02:01:00

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	July '08 filers	Sure thing, Koakland! I'm all about recycling wedding stuff. About the whole Vegas thing, I graduate in May 2010 and won't be able to travel too much afterward since I"ll be taking the NCLEX and doing orientation for whatever hospital I decide to work for. I won't be able to commit to anything for quite some time regardless, but I think May will end up being best for us. Just throwing it out there! Congratulations HY020 .	Terri and Seb	Not Telling	United Kingdom	2009-02-16 19:46:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	July '08 filers	Oh, and just a tip- I found mine at Gabriel Brothers for $19.99. It's worth looking there if you have one locally! I've even seen some full length JCrew gowns there for under $100. Alternatively, mine is a size 4 and I'll have no use for it after March 13th. I'd be more than willing to send it your way for the cost of shipping!	Terri and Seb	Not Telling	United Kingdom	2009-02-16 13:16:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	July '08 filers	Yep! The silk tricotine Sophia comes in a shorter version. AND- it's on sale for $60 on the JCrew sale site.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	July '08 filers	Oooh, Koakland! Go with the JCrew Sophia! I bought the short version in ivory and it is gorgeous. The silk is really soft and it feels like a dream. I'll be wearing it for our legal ceremony at the judge's office. Good luck Juliette! You must be so excited!
