I'll sign you up for the "My BM/MOH Backed out of my Wedding" Club! There are quite a few of us, myself included! (At least it wasn't 4 weeks before your wedding like mine) I'm in that club too! We should definitely start a club to cheer each other up

Thats really unfortunate. Seems many MOH/BM's are doing this a lot from other posts I've seen. These women need to be honest up front instead of putting friendships on the line. *hugs* She'll come around.. she's acting like a child.

I am trying to decide between Le Meridien, Fiesta Americana Aqua and Paradisus Riviera Cancun... I guess my biggest question and dilemma is AI or non AI! I am so confused!! Did you have same problem, thoughts? What made you choose non AI? Oh, by the way, I finally got in touch with someone from Le Meridien, Jessica Pantoja. We just booked (literally like 3 minutes ago!) to go site visit!!!! So excited! Finally I feel like we are making some progress! We will be there from June 13th-16th, so let me know if you need anything I can help you with! I've never heard of Jessica.. I've only dealt with Clara.. I guess Clara's getting busier. We had been looking for a AI as soon as we decided to do a DW. We went on 2 site visits and saw these resorts: Riu Cancun Riu Palace Las Americas Marriott CasaMagna (My fave) Aqua Avalon Grand Avalon Baccara Oasis Cancun/Grand (its where we stayed but I didn't even wanna look) Grand Caribe Real The Royal in Cancun Great Parnassus Golden Parnassus LE MERIDIEN When we got back from our first site visit, we realized we wanted something we could personalize a little further than some packages we saw. We really wanted the Marriott Casamagna but at the time we didn't want to change our date. So instead of looking at just AI, we kept our options open across the board. Our #2 choice was Le Meridien, #3 Hilton. (None that we had seen lol). After deciding on a non-AI, we decided us & our guests will be staying at an AI called Great Parnassus Resort which is about 2 miles away. Their sister resort, Golden Parnassus is right next door to Le Meridien so I don't even need to pay for transportation! They have free shuttles every 20 minutes! So I get a gorgeous hotel without the crazy hotel rates.

One actually scared the shit out of me! Yea I mentoned Gettysburg.. sounds like such a cool town regardless of the paranormal stuff

welcome to the forums!

welcome to the forum! We're heard good things about your work!

The wedding co-ordinator has been absolutely amazing and she get's back to us within a day or 2. She also has obtained outside quotes for us for our specific needs (such as tables etc etc that they may not have). I continually hear amazing remarks about the hotel. Good Luck! Thats great! I'm also paying $200pp but couldn't be happier with my choice of hotel. I can't wait to see your pics! Can you post your package rates for girls looking into Aqua?

I live in south and i've never seen a shoppers world. i might have to find one if they have such great deals! I live in Central Jersey (Freehold.. down the street from Great Adventure lol) but I work in North Jersey right by the store that has the dresses.. Alyssa, I'm calling them now to check on the dresses just to make sure!

Quote: Originally Posted by Alyssa That looks so similar!!! did they have it in black or white or teal? $4?? i may ask you to get me a bunch for my BM's too? Yea I'm almost positive there were other colors. I'll check it out tomorrow and get them for you. How many BMs you got?

this one is kinda close: Cotton Pocket Dress from VENUS Dresses

did you watch it?? Me and FI were arguing last night so I missed it.. I DVR'd it so I'll watch it in a few I mentioned to the FI that in August I have a week off of work (my boss closes the salon since it's kinda slow for us in the summer months) and I wanna go somewhere and stay in a haunted hotel thats within driving distance like PA or something..

If you like it, I can run over to that store tomorrow after work and get you one. Ya know how much I got it for? $4! hehe
