I am blond and fair (sounds like I'm giving my stats!!) but the colors are pretty neural.

Your looking at around $13 per color for eye shadow, 20-30 for foundation/blush etc. go to the website the prices are listed! M·A·C Cosmetics BUT with that being said.. the quality is totally worth it!. I didn't have to re-touch my make up once that day. Good Luck! My make-up for the wedding is mostly MAC. (eyes, blush, lips etc) I use MAC now and got a trial done with a 1/2 face to take down with me as a template with #'s so that the gals know which product to use and in what order. Its good to know Rain that it stayed on all day! I use smashbox primer too.

Anyone know what the HM package entails? I emailed Jacy again today and haven't heard back if its free with the wedding packages, an upgrade or you have to pay for it. Thanks!!!

5 more posts and i am no longer a Noobie!!!!

Although they say its only 45 min from the airport and that is in exceptional condtions. No traffic and no drops offs. My brother said its more like an hour and twenty minutes to hour and half. should be fun after a 5 hour play ride. But its 13 days today. YAY. I too wanted Tulum but given the overall distance after the plane ride and the guests we were inviting with small kiddies, it was too far. The location to Playa also made a difference if any of our guests wanted more "to do".

"Yes, we can also offer this color (blue/yellow) for the napkins. The extra cost is $5usd per napkin." Hi all- this was the reply from Jacy so I guess they can do colored linens.

S2 brides on 11th is where I bought my dress and Sonia's is their sister store off of Edmonton trail. Really friendly places. What are you looking for Dee?

I found the DLC forum where the gal has a bonfire, pinata and smores after the reception. for additional $$. I LOVE that idea.....good find Dee! What a way to have a memorable party for everyone!! Bonfire on the beach you can't do in Calgs!!!

Now I have to go back through 12 pages of posts to do it all over. Arggg. hey janna are you guys having dancing etc after your wedding reception dinner? 14 days today!!!! Its snowing with freezing fog??!! Can't wait till sun, sand and coronas!! Dee- we aren't. I'm bringing my ipod and ipod dock for the ceremony and the dinner. If anyone is up for dancing etc, we'll go to desires. What about you? If you want to borrow the docking thingy, let me know! Its super slick and easy. And here's hoping that Jacy will throw in the sound system for free!!!

Have you asked about this yet? I just sent off an email but was thinking maybe your ahead of the game with it. TTYS. I have asked my private wedding planner to ask Jacy about this so I'm on it. Haven't heard anything back yet.....I'll let you know when I do!! So glad that you are the only 1 on your day. (sorry other bride whomever you are....) I am the only bride on the 27th too!

You may want to check what time Barracudas bar closes, it's fairly quiet over there and on some nights when i was there it was closed early. I think it closed at 9 on my wedding night. Desire was a nice place, I had my welcome and fairwell drinks there, Alfrado & Rene and awesome bartenders! -Rain Thanks for the info Rain. Congrats again Mrs!!

Place to be in these the majority of the time. Wont be doing much touring until our second week when the kids come home. See you soon Janna. We will both the crazy brides with haggard looking fiances following in our wake. haha. See you soon Dee! Chris said he wants to sleep the 2nd week to get over his pre-wedding planning!! Haggard is right!!

19 more sleeps till we leave. I still havent received fiances band, my local jeweler is super freaking slow. 19 sleeps!!!!

My favorite bar was Barracudas. It's the one by the wedding gazebo and was by far my favorite one on the resort because it had chairs and swings! I had my cocktail hour there. Oh great! I'll put Barracudas as a place to meet. Great idea!!

Hiya gals- Is 5pm too late for a sunset wedding? DPA is an hr ahead of Calgary and right now at DPA, its dark!! Help!! Oh, and anyone know if there is a lobby bar where you can meet up for drinks and the name of it? Thanks!!
