  1. Hi Everyone!! I'm a August 2009 bride and just found this thread even though I'm on here all of the time. I'm also in school and have had trouble finding time to do everything. Here is what I've done so far: Booked Dreams Los Cabos and paid deposit Booked TA Bought the dress Picked BM dresses (I'm still waiting for their measurements. I'm at the point where I'll be threatening that I'll guess their measurements) Booked site visit (3.23.09) and plan to meet and choose all vendors afterwards Sent STDs Sent invites Sent deposit reminder e-mail Started and continuing workout plan (there's a former Army ranger in my class who has started a boot camp for some of us in my class so I'm hoping to maintain my weight and get more toned)
  2. Great questions! I would also like to know of any new policies recently implemented.
  3. I have the same concerns. Everyone says they're coming but you never know until the deposits are sent in. We originally booked 15 rooms at the resort but I was able to call and decrease our reservation to 10 rooms before any penalties were charged. I think I can book the 10 with bridal party and family and everyone else will have to hope that rooms are still available. Incentive for them to book ASAP I guess.
  4. I'm getting married at Dreams in August 2009 and will be sending out the invites soon, but have not decided on our ceremony time. Is there a certain time you suggest? 4 PM? 5 PM? I just want to see what others have done since we have to end by 10:30 and want to give our guests enough time for dinner and dancing. Thanks!
  5. This has been great. I was debating whether to have our e-pics done in MX or Chicago (where we met) but I'm definitely leaning towards Chicago now. Thanks for all of the links. They've been super helpful. Did Misha Media ever get back to you? Are you taking your pics soon? I'm not sure if we should take them in the winter or wait until the spring. I know, I know Chicago only has summer and winter : ) but I don't want to wait. I'm too impatient!
  6. Great Review. Are there other officiant options available?
  7. I'm using Mariana and she's been great. My wedding isn't until August 2009 but she has responded to my e-mails in about two days at the most. After looking at posts here I wanted to work with her and e-mailed her making sure to put "Attn: Mariana" in all of my communications.
  8. OMG!!! My fiance and I love the show. Especially Charlie. I bought my fiance the season 1 and 2 dvds for Christmas last year. Super excited for the new season.

  10. They sound great and willing to work within your budget. Definitely on my list to contact.
  11. I'm in the same dilemma. Most of my family is coming from LAX or SNA. I've been using farecompare.com and farecast.com to get e-mail alerts but I feel like I'm looking too soon since my wedding isn't until a year from now.
  12. I'm also interested if info is available. Thx!
  13. This has been one of my main worries. My hair is in a bob now but I have a year to grow it out a bit and I plan to put in some pieces so that I can put it up in a nice bun/chignon. My main concern is the weather/pool. I don't want to exclude myself from water activities to preserve my hair for the ceremony.
  14. Great website. I definitely want to use weddingwindow.com and love your layout/music
  15. I'm in the same predicament. I'm booked for Aug. 22, 2009 and know the weather is unpredictable. Look on the bright side, rain is supposed to be good luck
  16. I just booked Aug. 22, 2009 for my Dreams wedding. I contacted Mariana by e-mail and phone. My first e-mail was to question if my date was available and she responded within two days (I put the subject as "Attn: Mariana"). After I found out that my date was available, I e-mailed her to confirm but I didn't hear back for a few days so I called on Sunday and left a message. I received my confirmation from her today. I'm sure they are extremely busy but luckily I was able to get pretty fast responses. I'm planning on doing the Paradise package since most of the vendors I want to get myself and I'm sure I can get 10 rooms booked and have the package for free.
  17. OK so I'm in Chicago too and the Bears game made SYTYCD delayed until 11 PM. I'm barely staying awake to watch it (15 minutes to go!). Although I already know who has won, I can't turn it off and go to bed. I concur with all of the previous posts: *the guy from FL should have made the show instead of Gev (I almost boycotted) * Will was my favorite and I almost cried when he left (almost boycotted again) * Where was Sabra when they brought back the past dancers? * I liked this season but I still think last season was the all time best (choregraphy and dancers) I'm so mad I didn't find this thread until the finale but better late than never : )

  19. Another e-mail request. I am not able to open the attachment with prices. Can someone e-mail it to me at [email protected]. Thanks a bunch!
