Heidi

I just went out to Barnes & Noble this morning (no, I was not one of the people who waited all night in line for it to be released at 12:01!!!) and have my Harry Potter book in front of me. I'm logging off & will probably be reading all day long!

I have been doubting my decision to go with Beaches since I booked, and wishing I had choosen the Riu. I still wish I had done that, but at least I can see that I am not the only one that is getting surprised by hidden fees! Carly- you are definitely not alone on this one! and OMG! an extra $1,500 to have your wedding at sunset?!?! WOW!! though, you wouldn't have even had that option at the Riu - so I guess Beaches is perfect for you!!! (the Riu's latest ceremony time is 4pm)

I LOVE THEM. Thank you sooooo much Heidi. no problemo! Glad you like them!!

The only thing is, I sound so picky, they look perfect, but when I print them out, they are really small. Can we make them a little bigger? If not, no worries, they are perfect and I love them. sure - what size? right now they are just business card size (3.5" x 2"

Quote: Originally Posted by Julesr Oooh, I love them both, so I might do half and half. Is there anyway to send them to me so that I can edit them? I would like like to move our logo down a little and maybe make the outside line (the one you changed the colour of) a little skinnier. And, I do not want you to have to keep making the changes, you have done more than enough already. (sorry everyone for posting these so many times - for some reason they're un-openable via email, so Julie & I are trying to do it on here!!!) well the edit-able version would be in Publisher... how's this- luggage tags-Julie.pdf luggage tags-Julie2.pdf

I definitely agree - using the lines is MUCH easier!!! Julie- here are 2 verisions - 1st with brown outline, 2nd with light pink (personally I prefer the brown!): luggage tags-Julie.pdf luggage tags-Julie2.pdf

Quote: Originally Posted by Julesr I can!!! Yay. I love them. The only thing I would change is the pink border around the logo. I say either make it brown or a much lighter pink. What do you think? Other than that they are perfect. Thank you so much. Girls, Heidi made these for me and she ROCKS!!! Thank you so much. I'll re-post in a couple mins for ya! And you're making me blush!!!

Julie - let me know if you can see this!!! luggage tags-Julie.pdf

Happy, Happy Birthday!!!

I absolutely love these Kelly!!! They're so special!!!

good point Jerzzygirl... I heard back from the florist (Kreations Flowers)- here is the email she sent me with a picture of a bouquet (I emailed her my colors & asked for her suggestion on types of flowers,etc): Hi Heidi I have attached a bouquet with roses and white orchids, this I would suggest for the bride US$73.00. The same for the brides maids in the hot pink (rose) and green orchids in a round bouquet (not cascading like yours). US$66.00 each You have the option of including the coloured roses and orchid in your bouquet For the boutineers pink roses mixed with the green orchid US$6.00 each. You have the option of givng the groom the white roses and white orchid if you choose white for your bouquet. I hope you like this one. Of course we can look at others. Best wishes Kerry Ann Still haven't heard back from Riu yet - but this company's prices are SO MUCH BETTER!!!! oh, and here's the picture she sent me of the bridal bouquet that is $73US:

YAY!!! Have a fabulous day!!!

YAY!!! WOOHOO!!! CONGRATS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Happy Birthday!!

CONGRATS DREA & ERIK!!!!!!!!!!!!

This was their response: Hi Ms. Moran Thank you for your interest in using Kreations to do your wedding flowers. Our bridal bouquets start at Ja. $2500 up depending on the type of flowers used. We do boutineers, balloon decorations(arches, clusters columns), decorations with lights and tulle.

So yay!!!! BTW - this company also emailed me back with pretty much the same thing.

FYI - still waiting to hear from Riu about outside florists. I emailed Carolina, the wedding sales coordinator as she is quick to respond!! First, I wanted 100% guarantee that I CAN bring a professional photographer as a guest and the photographer will be able to work! Second, I asked about the florists. This is her response to me: Thank you for contacting RIU Sales Wedding Department Yes, you can use the photographer you are bringing as a guest for your wedding. I have sent your inquiry about the florist to the coordinator at the Ocho Rios, I will for sure get back to you with the information that the coordinator will send me. If you shall require further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact me.
