Any brides from the UK

for the visa thing, it's just the advanced passanger information you need to do. your TA will give you details and you just have to email your passport details. it's painless and takes seconds.

 

for documentation all i've done is have our birth certificates appolstilled. that's all we need (and i've heard you don't even need that). i'll let you know if there's anything else.

 

i just had a presentation at work. the girls came over with a trolly with 5 bottles of champagne and lots of nibbles, all my friends at work came over for a glass or two. they got us £100 in mexican pesos, a zorbing experience from our gift list and a Bath spa and afternoon experience from our gift list! we're SOOOOOOOOO lucky!! had a lovely afternoon! now we're all off to a local champagne bar for more drinks!

 

i won't be on as much now girls, as im not at work any more! but i will pop on! have fun with the planning and i'll let you know how Mexico and the Wedding goes!!!! it's so real and so exciting! thanks for all your support and i'll speak soon!!! xxxxxxxxxxx

Woodsylou - Good luck!!!! hope everything goes amazingly!!!!!!!! cant wait to see your review xxxx

I think that is a wicked idea, count me in, although I am the last so far to get married but i'll send it back to you I promise.

I am loving the starfish bouquet and garter...thanks for the link i've seen a few things that I'm going to order.

wow didn't realise that there were so many of us

Woodsylou, your desk looks wicked.

Have a fantastic wedding and enjoy every moment of it...can't wait to see your review xxx

FAB.... Ive just come on here to do this... WONDERFUL you have saved me a job :-) And like the others have said didnt realise there were so many of us!!! WOW x

Yes im with Thomsons so have 23kg each as its "platinum" then 7kg as hand luggage each (thats for everyine flying with us) then we "bride & groom" get an extra 5kg each and we can use that either as hand or check in, were going to see what dress and kilt/suit weighs then decide :-)

The desk is fantastic... noway on earth would the people i work with do anything as nice as that, we'd be lucky if we got a card... But i put it down to the part of the world i work in (i think carlisle people live in a but of a bubble.... if your not from round there then your not really welcome.... SORRY if i offend anyone (dont think anyone from here is from Carlisle so i should be ok) but thats they way i have been made to feel)

But back to you Louise... FAB FAB work collegues and friends you have that is so so lovely, hope you enjoyed your champers :-)
It'll be more exciting for you now though that you have finished work :-) xx


You just get a small form to fill in on the plane, make sure you dont loose it though when its filled in so put it in ya bad safely til you get in airport as i read its $50 to replace it... BAH, anyway to make more money!!!!!

No problem at all, i think this is a great idea, concidering were all there for each other through the planning process it will be nice to know were sharing our wedding day too :-) x

good luck and im so so excited for you.... Will be thinking of you on sunday and even more so on the 30th...your wedding day!!!!!
Cant wait to hear all about it and see your pix and i wish you all the luck in the world, savour every second you can and dont forget to take at least 5 mins an hour or so out with your new husband so you can smile and be happy together with your guests :-) xox
lots of love xox

Hi All,

Not sure how I have previously missed this forum!!

I'm from Newcastle & we are booked for Azul Sensatori for May next year, can't wait! We booked with Thomson but are still waiting for our wedding date to be confirmed.

 

So far there are 40 of us altogether and most of us are staying in the same hotel. It's a mixture of family & friends. What about you lot? Have many people booked up yet?

 

The forums on here have so far been really useful so hopefully this one will be too! x x x

 

Hey Lyndsey welcome to the UK bride thread great to have another UK bride with us xo
Oooooo someone from this end of the country too, most on here are from down south :-)
WOW 40 of you, thats fantastic. I booked with Thomas Cook but were flying with Thomason as its a Thomsons resort were going to. They took ages to confirm date but when they did it was the greatest feeling :-) I have (inc us) 7 of us booked and think thats going to be it, we would like more but it just hasnt worked out that way.
What date in May are you hoping for? We are getting married on 6th May... CANT WAIT... cant wait to have you join in the planning :-)

xox

Hi Nicola,
We are flying out on 6th May and are hoping for 12th may for our wedding date.it's the earliest we can get married as we can't include the day we fly, then the weekend, then 3 full working days. The 12th is a thursday so if we don't get that we might get offered friday 13th! i hope not i feel like we'd be jinxing it!! 7 is still a nice number, we were shocked at how many people actually booked up for us!x

Nicy that is great luggage allowance. I am jealous. Monarch are crap!! We dont get any bonus for being the bride and groom and our allowance is minimal! Rubbish!!

 

Louise - good luck hun, i hope you have a fantastic time and your wedding is everything you dreamed of and more..) the first of the UK brides on this thread to get wed, it's soooooooooooo exciting x

 

Welcome lyndsey!! congrats and lovely you have so many ppl going with you

i'll have to check as not 100% sure but i don't think thomson have given us any additional luggage allowance. i think its the standard 20kg and we can pay for extra (which i will defo be doing as I struggle to keep below 20 on a 1 week holiday never mind our wedding!!) x
