Let me know if you have any ?'s

IT WAS PERFECT!

Neen, when are you going down?!

Was wondering if there was still time to add some questions.

I've noticed lots of brides are taking down the table linens for the wedding. I was just planning on "renting" theirs.

You would have to check with them to make sure they have the exact color you want (if you are picky). That's probably why some people bring their own. Brining overlays wouldn't be too bad, the material is very light and they are much smaller than tablecloths. And if you bring your own stuff, DT doesn't usually charge you to set it up (although it might cost you more to buy the linens than just rent the DT stuff).

Sunbride, do you remember how much they were? And do they give you samples when you meet them the days before your wedding? I'm not terribly picky but I would like nice ones. It would be easier for me to pick one from their selection I just want to make sure they have a good variety of options.

 

thanks.

I didn't use the table linens so I can't help you, sorry! But I did want to use their chairbows and they didn't have turquoise, luckily I had happened to bring a role of small turquoise tulle for the gazebo and they just used it for the chairs instead. If I didn't have that I would ahve been disappointed about the bows.

 

Neen - Could you get a list of what colors are available for both chair bows and table linens? This question has come up before a few times so I think this would be really helpful. If ever you were able to see them and take pictures that would be AWESOME but if not I'm sure future ladies would really appreciate a list of colors.

FH and I's colours are the same! Turquoise/blue.

 

I love the idea of putting the tulle around the chairs. Your set up looked really amazing!

 

Where abouts did you pick up your tulle

Hey Ladies, Someone mentioned a while back that Landy keeps a separate spreadsheet for each of our weddings. Does anyone have a copy of one of these? It seems like it would be easier for both the bride and the WC if we could both be working in the same format. Right now I'm just keeping a punch list of things that I want but I would love to work off one of her speadsheet templates. It just seems like it would remove the margin for error and give me more of an idea of what's available.

For instance, there is nothing in the wedding guide about bonfires or renting lounge furniture. I'm interested in both of these but would not have known it was even an available option if it weren't for this site. Just a thought

I don't think things like bonfires or lounge furniture would be on their spreadsheet anyways, since they are not things that are normally done. I don't have a copy of the spreadsheet, but I did see Landy filling mine out during the meeting. It's just a one page document and she will go over each element (ceremony location, reception location, flowers, music, cake, etc) with you during your meeting when you arrive at the resort.

 

I ordered mine from idearibbon.com. I ordered the 6" wide spool for like 3$. One spool was enough for 10 chair ribbons (although really, the ends of the ribbon were super long, they could have cut them shorter and made maybe like 12-15 chair bows).
