So far, Carolina has been super thorough and quick to respond. Sometimes, she responds within minutes!

Thank you very much! It’s nice to have control and know exactly how you want to look on your wedding

You must looove saying "my husband"
What youtube videos did you watch... I watched a few last week but didn't find any really wedding specific ones

He said he was going to email me my new WC's info but I have not yet received anything. I tried to call today and was on hold for 30 min with no response. My wedding is in October and I need to make some decisions and FAST but can not do so due to the change in WC.
Oh, what to do?

I suggest calling first thing in the morning - this is what i usually do and have success every time. Good luck, stay positive, its all going to work out

His name is Baby Grinchmas (Baby..cause that's what he came with...and he looks so much like the Grinch). Actually his full name is Baby Grinchmas Theodore Pugglehead....we call call him Baby G
Love Him

He is cute! I LOVE the name. He does look like happy Grinch!

Love him to death and think one may convert me into a dog lover....we'll see! LMAO at his name too!! Very creative...and long. Everyone thinks my FI's name is Theodore because his nickname is Theo.

I want english bulldog. I am in love with them. Just not ready for a dog yet... but I like the idea of it.

Has anyone else started working with Faye? What do you think so far? I am still waiting to hear back from her about reception locations.

Thanks girl, I was concerned too about having to do it over and over again but it worked out great. My practicing all the time really helped. I took my time to make it perfect and got used to it. I also wrote it all down in the order I was to apply it in AND I watched wedding makeup video tutorials on YouTube.

Yes, Lady Di here on BDW used Mac down there I believe and her makeup is stunning! Sheâ€™s also a very naturally pretty girl but you should ask her.

Woo hoo!!

Thank you very much! Itâ€™s nice to have control and know exactly how you want to look on your wedding

HAHA DUH!!!! Sorry about that! I contacted Lady Di! Thanks for your help

I'm not working with Faye, but for what it's worth finding out about the reception locations was the one thing for me that took AGES for a response. (well, felt like ages anyways... probably only a couple weeks)

chong · July 22, 2010

silly question... does the resort provide beach towels for everyone? if so, how is it provided?

bigboponthebeach · July 22, 2010

I stay away for about 2-3 days and it takes me two hours to catch up here! Ummm, yeah....lessoned learned and I won't let that happen again! LOL You ladies are BUSY! :-)

Before I start responding, I have a couple questions for you previous brides:

1) How far away from AS are the local markets/vendors in order to purchase Mexican trinkets and such for the OOT bags? Are they within walking distance or is AS smack dab in the middle of the jungle as I read elsewhere?

2) When and how did you ladies chose your reception site, especially since they say there are two weddings per day? Did you get to select the site or was it chosen for you based upon your party size? Also, how do they decide which wedding party gets first dibs on the reception site?

Thank you so much for helping me sort out the confusion that is settling in about the details. :-)

I bought a pair of spanx last summer for a wedding I was in at Nordstrom's. I'm not sure if that is near you but I know I paid less than $100 retail for the one that goes down to right above your knees and connects to your bra. Hope that helps you some!

So much to say but will have to go back and do it some other time. I just got home from work and am baking cupcakes for my son's 1st birthday tomorrow. So bittersweet. The birthday, not the cupcakes:)

In terms of looking for updated packages...I really use this site as my measure. One of you girls mentions a sweet deal, I try my luck and ask for it. Sp far almost 3k saved. Hoping they will let me downgrade to free wedding package which (after adding on flowers) should be at least another $500-600 saved. I know I'll spend it elsewhere, but better than throwing it away on "extras" I will not use.

Happy Birthday to your baby! What a memorable milestone!

I too am BEYOND appreciative for this forum and all that it has taught me! I haven't tallied up how much we are saving, but I imagine it is a pretty penny! I am a frugal girl, so I feel you on feeling great about all the girls here and their invaluable help and tips!!!

I am so happy to be able to talk to other brides from A.S. My date would be April 25, 2011. I thought things would seem easier once I picked a resort lol, now we seem to have many more things to do, wedding packages, getting guests to pay on time to get the right rate etc. I feel like I might start driving my friends/co-workers and family crazy with wedding talk so i am happy to have this forum, you all know what I am going through!

Welcome and Congrats!!!!

I'm sorry....this would have made me let out a loud obnoxious sound at him. LOL Not a curse word, just a peculiar sound. LOL Hopefully you guys can come to an agreement on a nice color scheme. I've actually recently seen a really nice blue and green beach wedding that I never would have thought of but loved. PM me if you want the link and I will scrounge it up again!

We've all pretty much got the scoop on this now if you haven't got it covered yet. My TA said to qualify for that package you need to book a minimum of 7 nights for you and FI and also have 15 additional nights booked by your guests in any room class and you are golden for the Free package. Hopefully that helps!

lynds x

What day will your wedding day be?

I don't dress them up very often but the Dog Groomer will do it during the holidays and take their pics for a small fee. She is going to take a pic of them in Tuxes for my favor card!

Your story of your doggies just warmed my heart.

There are a few of us in this same boat. Several of my emails have gone unanswered by Fabio about who we have been reassigned to since Cecile has departed. As I told another bride, I will be happy to share as soon as I hear who we've now got. In the mean time, I hate to say it.....but we've just got to excercise the virtue of patience as much as it sucks. :-( It will all work out, we will just lean on each other until the kinks are straight! :-)

Giiiiirrrrrrrrrrrrrrl, I am a Nikon feen!!! I refer to my DSLR as my second child. LOL I am very protective of it and I keep it nearby at all times. My daughter will tell me to kick back and relax with all of the photos of her. ;-) "Mom, enough please!" is pretty common for her, especially around soccer season when I deploy the rapid shot on her! LOL I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE cameras and even tried to enroll in a JC course this past semester but it was full. :-( Do not get me started on my love for DSLR's! LOL

I am at the stage of trying to figure out where our reception will be held. How did you decide or arrive at your selection? Also, have you already had your reception location confirmed by your WC?
