  1. Are you kidding me? what a jerk!!! You know he's dating someone else... Tell her to not even bother giving anything back to him. She should take everything to a pawn shop.

Once we have the initial meeting with the wedding coordinator we will pay for everything then, so nothing gets charged to your card today unless you cancel. That's absolutely right!
  3. I've met Richard Gere, Placido Domingo and Kevin Costner.
  4. Sorry to hear that. I hope you get better soon.
  5. This is horrible! I had to read it twice to believe that it was true.
  6. Danielle, I'm sorry you're going through all of this. I went through something similar, you really find a lot about people when weddings come around. Now I understand why sometimes friendships are broken. Hang in there, put your foot down, make decisions and don't look back. Good luck!
  7. Congratulations and welcome to the forum!
  8. Remember since the beach is public, people will be staring and watching. Especially around 4pm, there are a lot of people on the beach and in the pool. The pool is open till 6pm everyday so if people see a wedding going on they're all over it. I loved having the mariachis, that's one thing I really wanted. They were fantastic and played for about an hour. But you can obviously extend the time and negotiate, we paid 500.00 for the hour.
  9. Jen, these are great photos! I enjoyed looking through them, everything looks so nice. Congratulations!
  10. Alyssa, I'm so so sorry to hear about your Aunt, I will keep you and your family in my prayers. Whatever I can do, please let me know.
  11. I don't think so. We had a welcome dinner, a rehearsal dinner and a glass bottom tour that we paid for. We had the same feeling about it as you, but since we invited guests to other things we didn't feel bad about having the wedding dinner at the resort.

The we can have our own music with us, and have a couple hours of fun before other people get to the disco. i understand where you are coming from. BUT like i said, I am a control freak... and $500 is nothing if it means i KNOW we will have the time and privacy for that stuff. Oh goodness... what to do! my FI is not much help, he just says his usual.... "whatever you want dear". Oh what to do! We were going to have the cocktail party basically to kill time before dinner... but i think people will enjoy the free time to freshen up in their rooms before dinner. July is going to be scorching. So maybe we can scrap that idea! This is the way cabo flowers is going to set up our arch... picture it with white and hot pink sheer fabric... (just the arch not the chairs) http://www.bluehawaiiweddings.com/ha...ing%20arch.jpg We are not ordering flowers from caboflowers, so had to rent the whole arch. This was fine by me, cuz i like the look of the wooden arch..... OK it is starting to sound like i WANT to spend more money than i have to... its no wonder my fiance has started calling me "Holly McSpendsalot" LOL Sandra, thanks for your advice.... I may ask more later. You looked so gorgeous and happy in your pics, and it sounds like everything was so perfect.... I wish i could just 'go with the flow'... but like a said...MAJOR control freak. Thank you, that's very sweet of you! Now I'm clear on the disco. You should do it if you want a private place for speeches and cut the cake. That would be your best option for what you want to do. I do like the picture of the arch that you sent, it's very pretty. What are you going to do with the chair ties? Remember Erika only has purple and gold. Are you taking your own?
  13. This is a hard one, but even though she did a collage you didn't like. You might want to just let her have it at your shower. Otherwise, she might feel as you are not being appreciative of her efforts. I know, I know you want things perfect but I think sometimes you have to lose some battles. Remember she's excited about your wedding and she's doing the best she knows how.
  14. Wow! That's crazy, I wonder if she even knows what that word means. Did you tell the Dad? Was he mortified? I would be.
  15. It'll be interesting to see what happens with this.
