Dreams Punta Cana Brides

Hey Cristine,

Just popping my head in cause I was thinking about you and your BD shoot today. I really hope everything went well. I expect a full report on Monday. LOL.

Have a great weekend and Happy Mother's Day ladies!!!!

Hey ladies, I have a question! I can't remember who mentioned this (I think it was Erin or Tam) but someone mentioned using gorilla epoxy to seal the top of their sand ceremony vase. We have an opening on ours of about 2 1/2 inches diameter... could we use this to seal it? Or could someone suggest something else?

Jenise!!!! O M G!!!!!! What an AMAZING, AMAZING time I had!!!!!!!!! I can't even describe to you how awesome it was. Jen was incredible!! Oksana made me look like me but just as a movie star! When I sat down to look at the photos, I thought she had somehow quickly edited them because they looked perfect AS IS! Shocking to say the least because I am FAR from perfect. I swear, you and Eliana (and every other woman on this board) NEED to do this and DESERVE to do this. I wasn't even nervous because Jen makes it impossible to be scared or timid.

I can't wait to the photos so I can show everyone (and that's NOT a statment I would make about any other picture!)!!! I should have them sometime this week since she's going to get them to me before we leave (in 9 days!)...

Hi Cindy!! Welcome :-)

There are soooo many things you're going to say "I had no idea" about after finding this forum. I had helped my friend "plan" her DW three years ago and all we did was go through some pictures and check off boxes on a piece of paper. I expected to do that...then I found this place. (I also never got the same paperwork she did, but we're staying at their sister resort for our DW, so they probably do things differently anyway)

I'm sure you've read this before (http://www.amresorts.com/wedding_gui...ding-guide.pdf) but it's the DPC wedding guide. On page 10 is the "wedding extras" section which lists the dancers as a "Fire Show". They basically come in costume (think belly dancer costumes) and dance around with fire. Every show I'm sure is different, but I'll certainly let people know what happens at ours!! The show itself is about 10 minutes long from what I'm told. It's a pretty penny to pay for 10 minutes, but I think there are 3-5 dancers, so it gets spread around.

The "dessert hour" I know is something they've never done before because the WC had to get permission to see if they could do it. But I, too, would like to hear about all the little extras we might otherwise not get to know about until it's too late!

9 days until we leave!!!!!!! Ahhhhh!!!!

Eliana,

The last time I emailed Carolina was a few weeks ago. Her assistant emailed me back saying that Carolina was on maternity leave. Her assistant answered my questions perfectly. She answered from Carolina's email too.

nat, you'll be just fine if you use the gorilla glue epoxy (or any other epoxy) to seal it. we made sure to pound on the vase so the sand really settled. we filled in the top of it and continued to settle it until it was pretty full. once we put the epoxy in it took forever to dry (darn humidity) but the vase was in one of our checked bags on the way home and it didn't look like a single grain of sand moved!

so We would just fill it up to where we want it and then put the epoxy right on it? I will get a picture of our vase and tell me what you think we should do... hahaha

Hey ladies, I feel like I miss soo much we I don't post for a couple days lol... welcome to the forum to all the new ladies ! How is everyone ?

I have been super busy for the last 2 weeks and had finalized alot of my DIY things to print, and you guys will not believe what happen to me today, everything I saved and completed on my thumb drive got corupted and I lost everything I did, and now I have to start all over again. all my emails, guest list, invitations, programs, table cards, menu cards, inspirational picutures, everything. the only thing I was able to save was my pre travel packets and thats because I already printed those out and saved them on my work computer. so word of advice ladies save everything in 2 places lol......

other than that, my original update was going to be pics and post of everything I did lol... welllllllll guess I have to post that later. surprisingly I'm pretty calm I guess its because at least I know what I designed and I don't have to figure that part out again. sooo tonight I will be working my butt off getting everything back
