I feel very sure I'll come back and report nothing but fabulous news for you AB brides and hopefully I can help put you at ease :)
Thanks Taylor, that makes me feel better. I am just stressing over the little window our TA gave our guests to book. Why do they do thathuh.gif

Also, if by any chance more people come than you expected, they can stay at a nearby resort and get day passes for the wedding. That was our backup plan!

Then I realised, when it goes well, I'll thank him for it too, and I did also agree to it.) I know it's hard but do not let wedding planning make you stress at your FI - just remember why you agreed to marry him in the first place and that when you strip it all down, the only 2 people who really, REALLY matter on the day are you two. the rest is all just a bonus.

You're right - I am just stressed and losing sight of what really matters! Thanks for the support, everyone!

Some of my family is already there, and when I talked to them today, they just raved and raved and raved. HOOOOOOOOORAAAAAAAY! I guess we done good :)

Good luck with all the planning over the next couple weeks! AmyKH and Katie, I can't wait to hear where you're at when I get back! I think you're up next!!!

Thank you for keeping me sane, ladies. I wish I could take you all with me!! We'd have one hell of a good time!!!! grouphug.gif

Yay!!! Congrats! Invites for me was a HUGE thing, this is definitely an accomplishment!!!

I feel so bad for Stephen. I don't know why his family all the sudden can't make this happen. He isn't home right now but he is going to be heartbroken when I tell him that his cousin declined.

What should I do about this? Should I encourage him to invite more people. (He had originally wanted to but I discouraged him bc of size and budget.) Should I email some of his friends and tell them to start booking. Maybe that wil even things out and make him feel a little better. I totally expect atleast a handful or more of his friends to make the trip but with none of them having paid, make me really nervous.

Has anyone else experienced a lop-sided RSVp situation?
I’m gonna be totally honest with you, if your FI has people he wants to come from his side, I say absolutely let him invite them and don’t worry too much about budget. You’ll be surprised at the number that “say†are coming and the number that actually do, people fall off etc. and not everyone you invite will come. I have definitely been surprised at who we know is not coming but it is what it is. I had a lot of people fall off as well, in the end all the people that truly want to be there will be.

Most everyone coming are my friends… FI only has himself and his BM and I had to fill up his side with people who are more my friends but still his too. Between the both of us 2 we have only 6 family members coming and no parents for me. I think with a DW you really can’t rely on 100% tradition half your side half his. Travel and out of the country weddings tend to make things a little unique so just know that and plan the best you can.

I live in the UK, the whole point of us booking a wedding abroad was to avoid the rain!! hahaha! Oh well, what will be, will be :-)

Thank you all for the posts - Kittenheart- thanks for the photographer recommendation, Chris is flying out on Sunday!! :-)

I will post a review and pics as soon as I can ( I always loved the reviews and pics) :-)

Thanks once again!! :-)

OMG!! How exciting!! I was talking to Chris on the phone the other day and he mentioned leaving soon for your wedding, I’m so glad you booked him and I am literally twitching with excitement to hear about it and see your pictures (if you want to share!!!).

DON’T listen to Trip Advisor, people complain regardless and everyone is different. There will always be complainers out there and AS isn’t exactly the crème de la crème of hotels so what do they expect, The Ritz??

You’re so welcome, can’t wait to hear back from you, have a fabulous wedding!

I would let him invite as many people as he wants. We invited over 130 people and we have 45 coming. Plus, a lot of people say they will come, but don't actually book. We had probably 15 more people say that they were coming, but have not yet booked, or have changed their minds.

Hi! My name is Theresa. I am knew to BDW, and am trying to find a location with my fiance. We have looked at a number of places online, including Azul Sensatori. We have seen mixed reviews of the venue so I thought I would look at this thread. (I tried reading all the posts, but there are 670 pages! :) ). We like what the resort has to offer, but would like some honest reviews. Any tips, advice you have would be appreciated!

 

Thanks!
