Cool! thank you for doing the review! Looks absolutely amazing!
Quick question for you Julia, or any LC bride that might know....
In the room/changing area for the guys (FI and his crew when they arrive for the wedding) is there a shower and stuff there for them as well? or is it just a bathroom and changing area?
Again thanks for the awesome pics Julia! |

For what I remember, it's really none of the above! It's an open-air space, but it is connected to the bathrooms (just a toilet). It's basically an open louge-like area, and then the bathrooms (mens and womens) are in that same area. Is that right, ladies? I wasn't in that area much other than to walk up and use the ladies room. I think if he needed a shower, he'd have to arrange to use the spa, and just make sure you know not to go over there if you don't want to see him. I could be wrong though ... I think Jamy would probably know!

Ahhh ok, I see. That helps! I was just trying to get more of a picture put into my head of it just in case my FI wanted to use the shower facilities over there. Such a minor detail really I know! Especially since I have not really even "officially" booked LC!!!!!!!

I am pretty sure that there's no shower facility where the guys get ready but there is at least one shower (and i'm pretty sure there are actually two) at the spa that the guys could use....you'd have to be careful and have some help if you didn't want to see the groom before the ceremony since the spa and bridal suite are right next to one another, but this could be easily worked out....
I actually have pictures of the area where the guys get ready that I'm going to post below....
You can see it's a very open air space...
But there's lots of room for the guys to spread out and get themselves ready...not like it takes them all that much anway...
And I think this last photo (which has Kelley in it peering around the corner next to my fiance) with the door in the back left corner leads to a private change room and possible a bathroom but I'm not 100% positive...I'm almost certain it wasn't showers though....

Also, I realized I have two more great pictures to share...one which shows just how calm the water was (for those concerned about the boat trip).
I know that the currents can change very fast and that the water is not always like this but you can see from the photo below that the water that morning was literally like glass....it made for beautiful sailing!!! :-)
Those guys were entertaining to a point! One actually got mad at me and Kelley and used his microphone to tell us in front of the whole boat that we needed to stop chatting amongst ourselves (and I swear we were not loud at all!!!) and pay attention to him -- apparently he didn't like that we spent the whole boat ride talking while he was trying to dance and entertain people...so FYI -- the entertainment is not an option on the day trip!!!! :-) No joke! He takes his job very seriously! But he does do it well!

Does anyone know if this is the same place that you go to on the 'Rhythms of the Night' tour?
