Iberostar Brides....POST HERE!

nope, not staying at the maya we are at the grand... not so good news for us regarding our wedding we have alot of questions and it's a week away... it's sucking right now... especially cuz we had the brazlian restaurnat as our private reception rented out and ummm now not so much!

as far as anything at the del mar or beach everything is closed all restaurants and gazebo's you cannot be on the property (we asked) so as far as the tropical you are s.o.l!

Sorry Danielle, I'm with you I planned everything for del mar. Gazebo/tropical- don't know anything about lindo.

as for reyna, don't expect response- esp since moving everything- she will be focusing on upcoming weddings with in near future- which she should- since they f..... up all our plans

For those whose weddings are near, you gals are so upbeat!! I'm cracking up listening to your responses! I say we set a day and specific time and all do a large shot of Don Julio in honor of the wonderful swine flu media frenzy!! Just this weekend while we were up "getting" my dress, my future FIL was calling for a hurricane while we were down there too!! Too funny how all our minds are on the same track here! Gals, our days will be what we make of them and it sounds like they're all going to be fabulously fun and rememberable!!!

So, my "getting" my dress this weekend wasn't so fun ... actually, a little Bridezilla came out this weekend! I got a call from the bridal store Saturday evening at 4:30 ... half hour before they closed, to confimr my appt to try on my dress Sunday at 12. The gal said, well, it looks like your dress ahsn't arrived yet, so you can try on the sample again! The fumes started flying! They gauranteed me that it would arrive on Friday and I could come in Sat or Sunday to pick it up! Being 5 hours away, my FI and I decided to make a weekend out of it to visit our in-laws, who live an hour away from the store. My mom even took off work to come with us! Needless to say, there have been many phone calls and one face to face visit with the store! As of now, they're talking with a bridal store 15 minutes from our house to arrange for it to be shipped here and the alterations taken care of. The salon will be taking care of every additional expense for this dress. So, unfortunately, I have no pics to share with you ... Hopefully in the next few weeks I should though!

I'm about to do our final 4 pages of wedding details! Have some decisions to make! Thanks for all the help to make this process so much easier! If I have any questions ... they'll be coming shortly!

DEEKAN!!!! So glad to see you on here! Hey ... we'd love to have you and Colin join us if you two need a vaca!!! Then you can party with us and get some up front info!! Plus, prices are dropping like mad!!! Murph and Jess got an awesome price, and ours keeps dropping because of getting the insurance for guaranteed lowest price! Awesome to see you leaning towards the Iberostar ... you said yourself they were beautiful!!!

Wow, that is crazy that they are closing all of those properties and upgrading everyone to the Lindo/Maya/Grand.

I am going to check as soon as I get home what info I still have on my computer. I'm afraid that I deleted most of it but it may still be in the good ol' recycle bin.

I was working on my review on the weekend and I vow to have it done by this weekend. I may just be the slowest review writer ever. My apologies for those of you that have been waiting so patiently!

I will check as soon as I get home and will post anything that I have.

Maya: good thing they said they would shut down the italian rest. for us after they gave us some ham-hock cajun restaurant which i thought was just an insult. The FI isn't on board he wants to cancel (I don't care either way anymore seriously I can't wait for this to all b over with - on the real yo) he isn't digging anything about the maya/lindo we choose the del mar for the wedding BECAUSE of the gazebo. So we are throwing are last hail mary and telling them we want the wedding at the grand now HAHAHA and we are gonna have 5 kids there (this should be good), ohhh and if that wasn't enough they can f-off on daypass charges and we want a discount! Like I said I can careless either way I just want to get married on may 16 i don't care if it's in mexico or the county courthouse down the street... And the real kicker is I ain't even stressed anymore *i think i finally cracked* I was more stressed for the 2 years it took me to plan all this than the 2 weeks it took for all this b.s to come apart (is that crazy maybe i need some couch time anyone know a good shrink? LOL)

As for reyna, she finally called my ta back and actually all the managers and herself are bending over backwards to accomodate us. kinda nice for once! Just as much as they have us by the balls we got them too (since they are dying for any and all business).

so if any of you have any info on the GRAND or LINDO or MAYA... Once, again if you could please shoot it my way at [email protected] I will love you long time round eye!
