Speaking of freeze dried petals, did the customs allow you to bring them in Jamaica? I am not sure if Mexican customs would let me to bring freeze dried petals into Mexico.

Another way I see it is that if they fail to RSVP then they won't get a plated dinner...simple like that. I know it sounds mean or whatever but is it so freaking hard to RSVP? Just send the RSVP card back! We plan to call people if they RSVPed yes to make sure they actually booked their trips. That's another whole thing!

Every time I called she never knew who I was and got all the info wrong. Along the lines of "oh hi yes your the wedding for 20 people on July 4th" "uhhhhh nooooooo November 12th for 100 people" It was terrible. I was also always sending e-mails with questions and they were never answered. Does anyone know of someone in that office who is competant? Kimberly is! She's my WC and she has been fantastic.

I hate feeling like a nag asking rest of my bridesmaids when will they book. I just told them that there is a $318 roundtrip flight and it was the cheapest i've seen! let's see if they will take action on it. you just have to know that in the end, it's you and your FI. i've been putting that in perspective and hey, we won't have to pay so much $$ if not a lot of people come! i hope you have a better luck with your wedding party.

May feels a lot of closer now! I haven't started on my invitations. I really need to kick myself in the butt to get started on it. At least, i ordered my RSVP post cards. Everything else, I just need to decide at the resort. I don't think I am doing OOT bags but we'll see how many people will go. 4 of my bridesmaids have not booked and R's 5 groomsmen have not booked either. Blah.

they will start up this thursday! woo woo!!!!

From what I hear, the resort's coordinators are not supposed to be communciating with the brides. That is what US coordinators are for. So maybe that's why there are lot of issues with the cordinators at the royal. They are supposed to get in touch with the brides two weeks before their wedding.

So, needless to say I am slightly frustrated. I was also quoted $350 vendor fee to bring in outside vendors, is this the same fees others are experiencing? It seems high? Thanks, Jen Yikes, $350?? When I put down the deposit, it was $100. I'm gonna be bringing every single email to make sure they WILL honor their previous polices when I put down the deposit. This is a major bummer for you future brides. Quote: Originally Posted by Lisa DSO Yikes, I just noticed the 350.00 outside vendor charge, too. Insane. Is it typical to add 400.00 for the judge too on a Luxury package? I guess I assumed it would be included in the 3700.00 :-(. Yeah, the fee always was there.

Happy wedding day, Karla!!!!

I had already faxed her that info...grr. Called again today and was told they have problems with their email system... poop what the heck? I'm so glad she is not my US WC or I would have flew over there and demanded her to do her damn work! Why isn't this person fired yet? That just baffles me.

I avoided this thread until I finished reading all of books...I just finished Breaking Dawn over the weekend. Whew, that was a long book! I am going through withdrawals! Meyer totally can write a few more books going with Nessie/Jacob storyline!! Like others, I didn't get into Twilight madness until this past October. Omg, I can't believe I missed out!! I watched the movie first before reading the books. I had told one of my friends that I watched Twilight and turns out she's a die hard fan and had all of the books so I borrowed them from her. By far, Eclipse is my favorite book! I was originally Team Jacob because I felt Edward was too "cheesy" for me but now I'm on team Switzerland! I liked the love triangle between Bella and two guys...I mean if there wasn't no love triangle then it'll be boring! How cool is it to have a vampire and half werewolf fight for you? I totally loved the part with all of them in a tent. That was hilarious. I felt so bad for Jacob that Bella kept blowing him off for Edward...I guess i'm one of few that like Jacob even though he was a brat in Eclipse but he meant well and he loved Bella very much. Breaking Dawn was just another whole story. I wasn't too thrilled with the storyline but then I went with it. I didn't expect that Jacob would imprint on Bella's daughter. In the end, I'm glad Jacob will be always in Bella's life like he originally wanted. As for the movies, Twilight was cool. New Moon seemed too slow for me. Kirsten Stewart really needs to improve her acting. I feel it's one sided. I just LOVE Ashley Greene as Alice...they got that part down perfectly. She's just too cute. Nikki Reed is pretty but they could have picked another actress for Rosalie. I like Jackson as Jasper...everyone else is great! Taylor is JAILBAIT YUMMY! Thank god I'll be too focused on my wedding...Eclipse comes out few weeks after my wedding! Haha. Anyone know what's up with Breaking Dawn? It would be really great to have it split in two movies. Two 2 hours movies are good with me!!

aww, that's so sweet. congratulations!!!

Aww, he is adorable! I recommend crate training when you are at work or you can't watch him so that way he won't touch anything he is not supposed to and it can help with his housebreaking. I am STILL working on housebreaking my 3 month old boxer puppy. He never soils in his crate but will pee in the house occassionally. Arg! Thank god he doesn't poop in the house anymore. Have fun enjoying the puppyhood because I will be!

LOL, I felt that way last night when I had it with my puppy when he was humping me and pulling my pants. I'd never want to give him away though.

He shouldn't have got married in first place if he wants a different steak every week! Poor Elin but hey she's going to get millions so she's not going to walk away with nothing.

Nads!! Don't barf/pass out/hyperventilate or anything! Lol! Have an amazing wedding and i'm looking forward to your pictures! You're going to be a beautiful bride!!

Do they give you a formal receipt or confirmation of your date, time, and location? Thanks for your help, ladies! p.s. Lady_Di, I am soooo in love with your puppy!! I have a boxer too and he's a riot. Welcome to the forum! You should email her again and kindly request for a confirmation. That's what I did even though I don't have her as my US WC. Yess, I love my puppy but he's a devil sometimes!

jesmcan, Maybe the lobby bar at Gran Porto will be big enough for you.

Love your planning thread! You're going to have a beautiful wedding! Woot!

Thanks for the review!! You looked fantastic! Did you have to pay a vendor fee to get the lounge furniture?

Baaah, could anything else go wrong? Oh girl I feel you on that. My grandparents are not going and I am sad because my grandma was my nanny until I was 9 years old. I am trying to figure out how I can include her in the wedding. I'm even thinking if we should get married at the court and have her as one of our witnesses. My big thing is that I want that moment when the justice of peace say "i declare you husband and wife". I don't know. I understand how you feel!

I'll definitely check that website out! Thanks!

I love your thread! Love the details...

Omg, I so love your planning! I orginally wanted orange & fuchsia but my fiance wanted black so my colors are hot pink and black. I love your "I Do" cake thingy! You had a beautiful wedding!! where did you get all of the starfish? could you share where you got the chair sashes and table runners? thanks!

omg your ring is GORGEOUS!!!! congrats!

that's super sad.
