Azul Sensatori Brides - POST HERE!

Side note: On the webinar they even said you can rent the donkey under several circumstances. It didn't have to be the cocktail hour and they said to rent just the donkey for an hour was $100

HAHA, don't you mean you don't have the yearS, paranoia and Type A obsession like me? Lucky you
I'm embarrassed to say, much to my DH's confusion I brought back everything I could possible bring which was a lot.

BTW, if you want to keep things like your cake topper etc. They threw mine away which devistated me... it was custom made and I had her paint our wedding date on the bottom specifically to keep So just have someone make sure to grab stuff after the wedding before they clean up.

Vent away girl, this is where we do it!

Yeah I had a few of these, found out weren't coming NEVER told me, the best was 2 groomsmen did this. I finally had to confront them both on this. Anyways... lame. People don't take into consideration you and all your going through sometimes and it's unfortunate.

Has anyone used octovio montes photography out of mexico?

Not I, jazz. I haven't heard of him/them either and I just completed all of my photog research and made a selection. Have you done a search on this forum to see what you could fine. You might also search wedding wire and the knot as well prior to making a selection. Out of all three, this site has by far been the best for my DW photog search.

Thanks Amy....as always you are a wealth of info or a great source of things to keep in mind!

Sooo sorry you are having to deal with that. I think many of us know how that feels, and it's real crappy. I have learned which family and friends are really important in my life from this wedding planning. I think that is completely ridiculous that they ask why you are willing to "sacrifice them being present at your wedding". Why don't they answer why they will sacrifice not coming to your wedding?! Feel free to vent away....you need to!

FI and his groomsmen got a great calvin klien khaki linen suit from Mens Warehouse. They are on sale right now too! Good luck

Thx! The sage sounds pretty, I'm gonna have to look it up.

We keep getting the short end of the stick for some reason but hopefully it will just make us stronger and allow people/businesses to learn from their mistakes. I feel for people who are just getting some sense of normalcy since Katrina and are going through this now. One of the pharmacists I used to work for always replied when someone asked how he was doing, "Oh, you know I'm good, you can't kill bad grass!" So, like bad grass, we are here to stay!!

Any good tips on food options? FI and I are trying to decide about all of that now. I hate I missed it.

It's almost your turn!!

If you don't mind me asking, what is a pre-wedding meet and greet? Is that for the bridal party?

Once again, more people that don't think before they act. I'm sorry you have to go through this. I just had someone else do this to me just this past weekend and too bad she was my wedding singer!! So, I completely feel your pain.

Very good advice!!

OMG! After all of the trouble I went through to get my toppers made, I would have a mini fit!! Just our cake jewelry was over $300! And I know you put a lot of thought and time into your details. Did you flip out or what? After all of the nickel and diming they do, I'd want a refund for it expensive or not!!

Yeah, this is happening to us monthly it seems. We have people who swear they're coming but still haven't even called the TA (groomsmen included) and we have people who decided not to come and not tell us. Two of my cousins sing, so I was going to ask both of them to sing at the wedding. The older one told me she had to check her schedule since she's getting to be all big time now and the younger one is still on the guest list as we speak. Too bad their mom had to tell me that both of them weren't coming. I've only seen the two of them like a hundred times since planning began. I even brought it up at dinner the other day and the younger one never said a word. Guess I should change my siggy.

Does anyone know where we can find videos of the music options? My WC sent me a crap link that has one video. Music is very important to me...I don't understand how they have nooooo videos!!

 

I forgot to MQ but r something...lol...hang in there. I don't understand why close family and friends go and talk about your wedding with other people and not you. I would have so much more respect for some that did this to me. Not to mention the stress the complaining of relative put on my mom...its not fair.

 

oh well. PS Amy gorgeous BM dresses...AmyKH great advice about the cake topper...my sister just finished making mine and its great and both of us would be upset if it was trashed

 

PPS Today's the day we supposedly get answers about getting more rooms, construction etc. fingers crossed for good news

 

ppps my hair iron just broke! bad hair day!!

During the webinar they talked more about the food in general. Nothing particular but they interviewed the chef and they talked about the wine a TON and the alcohol choices. Also ladies I am working on something in writing about the donkey for you! I emailed the peeps that put on the webinar to see if i can get you something.
