Default Fun Times

Hello everyone. I have been looking around and reading all the posts on here. There are so many of us Riu brides, but they do seem to have the best pacakges for the price.
So anyone have photos (I have looked at tripfinder) that they have seen or took there themself while there? I am also wondering what are you all taking as far as decorations. I am trying to decide what I should take.
Also anyone have good ideas for favors? I have found a few sites that have some good stuff, but just not sure how far to go. Any input would be great!! I love that I have a place to talk to everyone about this now!!!!!

Hey girl! I'm a ROR bride too! I havent really decided what I'm taking as decorations yet, but something small and light would work best (since we are limited in how much we can take). I think the additional cost for additional decorations is very high so I am going to doing a lot of DIY projects.... Once I have more info I'll show you. There are alot of good threads about the Riu Ocho Riu decorations and such on here.Lets see.... try:

Also Jerzzygirl just had her wedding in Oct. Her review has tons of good info (and I think a link to her pics)

If I come up with anything I'll show you! If you come if anything be sure to show me too

Hi! Check out our other threads for detailed info about weddings at the Riu Ocho Rios. Jamy (starchild) was there for her honeymoon a few months ago, and Jerzzygirl just got married there. We're using the decorations that come with the package...just adding centerpiece things I'm bringing from home (pink & green tea light candles and luminary photo frames).
