I can always do them for out SC AHR at our Oyster Bar -- will fit the beach/seafood theme fabulously!

Those are GREAT! I love all the lit umbrellas. Do they do that for all weddings there? It's beautiful! Looks like such a fun wedding and the flower centerpieces are beautiful too! Ya! Keep 'em coming!!

I only bought expensive stuff thinking it would give me skills but I wasn't good at it and I stopped. I can line the hell out of my lips when I'm feeling saucy though!! I can't use the liquid liner either. Looks great for those who can do it right -- but definitely not me. I use the liner pencils and can get pretty creative and good with those!

$159 for me. Wow ... I thought I'd cost ALOT more than that! lol.

Thank you for everyone's replies, I have a few good ideas now! Oooohhh!!! O&O Palmilla ... no wonder it's so much more ... that's an awesome resort! We were thinking about O&O Reethi Rah for our honeymoon ... but maybe 1 year anniversary instead .... because it's definitely way more $$$. Congratulations! Can't wait to see pics from your wedding!!!

Sure, I'll PM it to you!

Here are some pics of the Huppa Options that my resort offers. Prices are all about $250 and they are all fresh and handmade that day.

Cute song, and a fun blast from the past for me! To answer your question, I think any of those times you suggested would be great...what about the recessional? Do you have a lot of guests? hey Sarah! Yes, he is the frontman from DC Talk. I didn't even realize they were still around. I guess he's branched out on his own... We have 50 people booked so far, so now we are expecting at least 75 ... so it will be a decent crowd. I was going to use "I'm a Believer" for the recessional .. but this one is even more upbeat ... so I don't know...

I first heard it on a photographers website ... and it took me forever to find it online b/c I didn't know who sang it. I'd never heard of him before. He's a Christian singer and the song is actually about God, but I didn't realize that until I went to his website. I think it's the perfect upbeat, wedding love song. Kinda reggae-ish and totally a fun song.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE this song ... just have to figure out when the best time to play it is ... -Recessional -Entering Reception -Cake Cutting -Other Time? YouTube - Toby mac - Made to love

I think those are all good options. They are all on my playlist ... but I haven't figured out what's going where yet.

Ok, need a little help. I'm trying to upload a song for our weddng website ... but the largest audio file it will allow is 1024KB. So, can anyway tell me how to compress an .mp3 or .wav file so that the song will fit? I've shortened the file from 3+ minutes down to 1 minute ... but it's still too large to upload.

My hair grows s-l-o-w ... but I still shed a lot too. I also put in temporary extensions every now and then so when I take them out, I lose a bit more hair as well.

Wow, I was not familiar with the terminology ... but I definitely like this style. A little too pricey for me, though. Guess I'll stick to the DIY projects! :-)

Glad that you're here! You will become addicted to this forum in no time! The information is endless!!!

I hope it is! Can't wait for it to arrive!!!

WOW!!! Those are absolutely amazing!!! I can't believe its TP!!!!!

Wow... serious deals. Is it good quality/long-lasting? For that price, I feel like its a good deal regardless, at least to try new colors, etc. So, we'll see how it goes. Just ordered $20 worth so I could use the coupon. Thanks!!

Awesome. Going to check it out right now!

We got engaged in June 2006 and I immediately started researching places. We narrowed it down to the DR pretty quickly and from there I started researching resorts. I picked my Top 5 resorts without looking at prices. Then, I only looked at resort prices, not wedding package prices to get an idea of what guests would have to pay. I sent those top 5 choices to Tom and he picked his favorites. (Luckily, he picked my top 2 .... so we chose the lesser expensive one for the wedding and moxpensive one for the honeymoon.) That process took about 4 months. It was 10 months after we got engaged that we secured the resort and wedding date with the WC ... and not until May-June of this year that we were able to get 2008 wedding pricing. Hope that helps!

I'm having the Huppa decorations ... but it's not costing me $700. Wow! I think it's like $250 at my resort.
