also, the 100 search results is hopefully only temporary. we are working on updating the server AGAIN so hopefully once that is done we can up the search results back to 200.

We wanted to add some of the traditional filipino things into our ceremony.. wondering if rev. Marco Arechiga is available for a symbolic ceremony.. thanks in advance for any info! melette, i did a symbolic ceremony and then the legal ceremony at san francisco city hall. it was really easy and also i did not have to deal with paper translations etc. i am sure marco is available for symbolic ceremonies...you can contact him via email or pm him on the forum.

i just did a blog search and it worked... please be detailed about what you are doing so we can test.

jingles, we have a few TAs on this site...i would recommend pming TA muareen if you want any help.

we changed the number of search results down to 100 and it fixed the search issue

i have been searching all day without a problem...

they had a chocolate mousse at dreams that is to die for...it is so good...we would go around the resort looking for it. if you can get that for your wedding...you should...YUMMY!

hi tirica, this thread might be helpful to you. http://bestdestinationwedding.com/forum/t5588 i have done groups to cabo of more than 100 people so they can accomodate larger weddings...i had 56 people at mine.

i usually help my clients book their golf excursions or you can contact the hotel concierge (but that usually takes alot more time).

My thought is it may require 2 payments and your upgrade verbiage suggests that each "vendor" must upgrade... Any thoughts that might help? Gracias, mateo Hi Matt, unfortunately the set up is automatic for vendors so 2 paid accounts would be necessary unless you want me to merge your 2 accounts and maybe rename is "Del Sol Photography" or something

erika is right...i try to negotiate a free site visit into room blovks or at least a very discounted rate.

my DH and his GM's went surfing the day of his wedding...they came back sooo stoked and he still talks about the best day of his life...waking up and going surfing with his friends then marrying the girl of his dreams. one of his gm also said it was the best day of HIS life because the durf was so good.

thanks mods... martin, they are correct...we only have a limited amount of space for platinum members but we think that this will really cut down on the waiting list we had for promotions.

If you can't trust huge companies like Expedia and Hotels.com what should we do? the thing with big companies is that they put so much $$ in advertising and very little in training and customer service. Quote: Originally Posted by CaboBride2010 wow i also thought Expedia would be great to use....do you travel agents think this is common problem with most travel companies? or is this an case where it is extremely out of the ordinary? sorry if those questions sound ignorant, I have just never travelled where i book the travel myself so I am not aware of companies reputations... when a problem occurs with my clients, they know how to reach me...i am def. not going to put them on hold for an hour then hang up on them. there are actually 3 websites dedicated to expedia and their issues so this is not an isolated event. their are also complaint sites that have hundreds on complaints against expedia/orbitz/etc....if you do a search they will come up. these are actually big complaints, like being charged for a trip they did not book, paying for a package that they did not get...

ok, did you do a room block because usually it is written in the contract? also, i am surprised your TA even used pleasant for dreams because they do not have the best dreams rates...i use pleasant alot but never for dreams. but if it makes you feel better, the $200 resort credit is just ok...most people do not end up using theirs because they break it up like $40 for wine, $20 for this, $50 for romantic dinner...it is not one dollar amount that you can apply how you want. for your upgrade to honeymoon suite, pm me and i can see what i can do.

hi sandra, you may want to click the link above and fill out the form...that way a TA can get back to you with some rates. it is hard to tell the rate you got because we don't know the category, if it includes air, etc.

the first thing to do is to figure out where you want to get married then narrow it down to the resort then pick a date negotiate group rates if you have a larger group/if not then get an idea of what prices will be for your guests if you are going to do STD, website work on monogram put together website with travel information, booking information, resort info etc. send of STD with website information after you have that done, you can slow the pace down a bit...and do the fun stuff like dress shopping, picking out colors, flowers, wedding details...

i have always said this about the internet sites...if something goes wrong, who are you going to contact? how are you going to get the proper resolution? this type of thing is not uncommon: Quote: I had been a loyal Expedia user for years until just recently. I had a flight booked through Expedia to see my parents over the holidays. They live out east and I am on the west coast, so the flight was over $900.00. The flight was cancelled, and the Expedia rep said I would have my money back in 7-10 business days. I checked my account after a couple weeks, and no money. I called Expedia back and the rep said that it takes them 7-10 business days to get the money back from the airline, then it takes 2-3 "billing cycles" to be posted to my account. I said that that made no sense because I had used a debit card (goes straight to checking - there are no "billing cycles"). That rep said then that I should have my money as soon as their refund department processed it and it should be "any day now." I even booked the replacement flight to see my parents using Expedia in good faith that Expedia was being honest. That was a month ago, I called again this morning and I have been on hold for over an hour after a verbal battle with a rep who insisted that it was the responsibility of my credit card processor to post the money to my account. I bank at a local credit union, and they have said that the money will post in real time as soon as they actually get the posting file from Expedia. I explained this to her; three times - she kept insisting that I was wrong and asking "Really? Are you sure? You actually talked to them" The rep then said she would talk to their refund department and put me on hold. I wrote the above 15 minutes ago then waited. The rep just came back on. She said that the refund department told her that it actually takes 4-8 weeks for them to process a refund and then asked that I please be patient. I think that I have been extraordinarily patient. I have been out of work since June of last year; I cannot afford to have some scammers working under the guise of a legitimate business hold on to my money for an indefinite period of time. That money does not belong to Expedia; it belongs to me. If I told my landlord that it takes me 4-8 weeks to process a rental payment, and asked them to please be patient, I would quickly find myself homeless. This is completely ridiculous. I asked for contact information to be able to lodge a complaint. The rep said that she has documented the call and to call back after 4-8 weeks if I do not have my money, then whoever answered the phone would file a complaint for me. It has been six weeks since the flight was cancelled.

ETA: both the brides above were given a 1 month ban. can i say this clearly enough to people? i own the forum. i am allowed to make decisions for the forum as i see fit. giving me attitude is probably not the best call unless you want to be banned. if you do get banned, DO NOT email me asking why you got banned because the reason is usually listed on the ban notice.
