Does anyone know how many can be seated at the long tables? Also has anyone used the sound system?? Is there someone running it? Can you tell me anything about it? Thanks! I'll be leaving soon....I'll try to answer whatever questions I can when I return...

maybe a silly question but do I need just 2 different colors of sand for the sand ceremony??

about the video...does it have music to go with it?? Are we suppose to bring the music? Also a question about the rooms....is there a belcony in the tower rooms? And has anyone stayed in the pyramid building if so how are those rooms?? Thanks a bunch!!!!

Can anyone tell me about the sand ceremony?? Did anyone do this and if so did you bring your own stuff? How many differrent colors of sand are you suppose to have and when is it done?? Thanks a bunch!

You do have to have a dry cover up on at the least. Ok that's good to know...thank you!!!

Congratulations!!!! I have a question about dress codes..alot of my guests are asking about the restaraunts..do you have to wear long pants?? Can they wear nice shorts?? If they have to wear pants can they wear jeans Also do they have to wear closed toed shoes or can they wear sandals?? Thanks so much..I e-mailed Claudia a couple of times with this question...but I'm sure she is busy!

To those who have been to Dreams....What are the dress codes like in the restaurants? Do the guys have to bring any pants or closed toed shoes? Or will they be ok with sandals and shorts?

I emailed her, and she said she has to get it by that time. Sigh... They have a new WC? Claudia is gone? I've been trying to e-mail Claudia for months now and no response..do you have the new WC e-mail? thanks~

How are you guys getting your dress there? Are you putting it in a suit case?

Are you guys doing a sand ceremony? Or any readings? If so where are you buying your sand? Also at the reception are you doing a garter/bouquet toss? If so when are you doing this? I'm having my reception in the club tower but want to do dancing outside on the terrace..anyone else doing this? I was just wondering how I would have them set up the sound system? Past brides....can we leave the doors open so we can hear it and set up outside? I'm so clueless to all this stuff!!! Thanks for your help.

So glad to hear 3 or 4 is a good time...friends were just telling me it might be too hot..but what do they know..ha!

November is after or at the very tail end of hurricane season and it rains during the month but Jilly and others have said that its a quick 10 minute down pour and then beautiful again. You will be just fine!!! (and by you, I mean 'we' :-))

What time is everyone getting married? We're getting married at 3pm in November..that's not going to be miserable is it..weather wise..?

He is willing to help ... but the stuff left to do is all stuff I need to do online -- design more hang tags (and get them printed) finish selecting and downloading our playlists (we are finishing this together this coming weekend), designing/writing/printing the welcome letter and wedding day timelines, completing centerpieces (Mom is helping with this), etc etc. It's a lot, but it's not a lot. It's just I don't have enough hours in the day leading up to our departure date. Maybe I should just drink some wine... lol (instead I'm listening to Tom peacefully snore away in the bedroom as I am out here online surrounded by boxes of wedding stuff). There you go! Have a glass of wine..that'll make you feel better! Good luck!!!

I posted this over on Ana's site review, but I will do so here too if anyone is interested... For those of you looking for information on the catamaran trip we are booking - contact: Guadalupe León Wedding Agent Amstar DMC México Phone 52 998 881 95 63 Fax 52 998 881 95 85 [email protected] www.amstarmexico.com Guadalupe is excellent... Hans has been emailing him back and forth and he is a riot (but very helpful) - tell them we sent you. The trip we are booking is 10-5, includes snorkeling, stops in Isla Mujeres and for lunch (included), drinks, etc. It is a private trip so you can customize somewhat.

Also I know you have been busy..but if you get a chance can you e-mail me the info on secrets? Thanks alot!! [email protected]

Jilly..I was looking at your pics...they're absolutely beautiful by the way...just wondering where you found your garter...I love it!!!

Hi Kristen..thanks so much for the review! They're always so helpful. Just wondering where you found the little mat under your center piece? Your reception loooked beautiful..congrats!!

So does the dj set up during the ceremony as well? I have the sound system..but he's cheaper..i just want to make sure he plays music during the ceremony. Thanks!
