for flowers in cabo

congrats michelle! can't wait to hear all about Fiesta Americana and see your pics!

yay!! i miss the wedding but i get to see her in a few days.

court, you look stunning, radiant, gorgeous!! your mom looks sooo happy and sooo cute! just like her personality! thanks for the awesome review!

i don't know why yu wouldn't to help negotiate your group block. i know 99% of the time i can negotiate a lower group block that a bride on her own especially since i book multiple times at the resort. also, the resort pays us a commission so it isn't like you or your guests are paying the travel agent.

TA dina, that is great news! it really helps to have a TA that has some "pull" help get answers faster.

just bumping this thread...remember the member has to write and intro and make 5 posts to count so it is still anyone's contest.

dh is awesome...makes enough so i don't have to work if i choose not to...actually he'd prefer if i did not work...and we live in an expensive neighborhood...

Hi Salomeh, i was going to say that just have the WC at dreams follow up. tammy

i have made 6 figures since i was 24. i was in real estate in a very porminent area and it was booming but the hours were long. i decided to open my travel agency so i could work from home. this year with the pregnancy and the baby i am still able to make six figures...less than i was before the baby came but enough.

they will do a pasta dish or some vegetables...my guests had a larger order of the cheese/spinach ravioli... they said it was really good.

hi trish, wow, your plate is full right now...you are a great sister but if this is causing an issue with you and travis you may need to set some boundaries with your brother...maybe the nights he has the kids, can he get a hotel room or go on a trip. why would his wife kick him out and make him couch surf at your house and make the kids spend the night knowing you do not have the space?

thanks for posting such a great review...i am sure it will be helpful to other el dorado brides

Quote: Originally Posted by Dreamgirl08 Hey, my wedding coordinator just got back to me today and confirmed that yes in fact EDR's photographer policy has changed. It is now a $500.00 fee ONLY. No additional 3 night stay. In my case, I have my photographer driving in from outside of the Riviera Maya, therefore I have to book her a room for my wedding. But at least now for me that means $500.00 + 1 night stay. Not so bad I guess. i was told it was a $500 fee IF they were not staying at the resort as a guest. not $500 and staying at the hotel....

if you go to the vbpicgallery (see nav bar) there are some floral arrangements and ideas... http://bestdestinationwedding.com/fo...p?do=big&p=234

sarah, sarah, sarah...(said in a jan brady voice)...just kidding..great job!

if you contact your WC about the policy and they send you the old one, tell them that you heard that Faith Wishnie (head of wedding dept) recently changed the policy...at least that is what i was told by their pr company. if they respond differently, let me know and we will re-instate the ban.

here are the latest stats...it's still quite tight of a contest. Morgan 6 JennyK 4 soltamargo 3 kristendotcom 1 Heidi 1 Tammy 1 AnnR 1 daryl currie 1 jean-marcus 1 twinkletoes 1 Tlseege 1 Melissa R 1 MsShelley 1
