Will do! Thanks! Any tips for customs? Normally I always went on my ESTA (always could use a computer at the airport) but since its not the case I have to go to the guys in those boots right?

Just get in the line you normally would go to, ESTA/VISA. Once at the booth, show the K-1 visa and the brown envelope. Stay calm, don't ask about connection flights! lol. It varies how long it takes for them to make copies etc, and they'll ask some standard questions sometimes like "You know you have to get married within 90 days?" Mine even asked how we met. Oh well, I think they skip the interrogation at AMS Airport once they see your K-1, at least it did for me.
