I would definitely call the manager and ask ( or demand, if you know what I mean). It is extremely unprofessional that your TA would pick up and leave without notifying you, and then the company would not even attempt to contact you to make alternate arrangements? That is ludicrous to me.

Nevermind i assume those people are not from the US. Perhaps Canada or European countries...

That's so unique! I love the color. And the style is exactly like my BM dresses that I got from DB. I love it. I agree with Dmitri though that it may be see through when wet. Make sure you check it out!

How is it that some are allowed to marry there? I also have seen on other travel boards, people that have traveled there for vacation.

I think FI and I are going to stay in Jamaica but move to a different resort. We're getting married at the Iberostar and staying there for 5 days (June 15-20th?) with our guests, then moving the Sunday after the wedding to Couples Swept Away in Negril and staying there for 6 or 7 days. That's the plan for now, although it hasn't been booked yet. We thought about going somewhere totally new after the wedding, but it is more cost effective for us to stay in Jamaica. Plus we don't really want to deal with any more plane travel than we have to. We are planning on a big 1 year anniversary trip though:-) Greece or St.Lucia.

Great pics! I was contemplating ROR but have since decided on someplace else, but these would have been a huge help!

No problem! I wish they were already open...I hear the Excellence resorts in Mexico are pretty awesome so I'm excited to hear about this new one in JA...whenever it opens.

Hi gals, I found this info online about some new resorts coming to Jamaica pretty soon: Montego Bay, Jamaica Excellence Oyster Bay The Excellence Oyster Bay is set to open on a peninsula along Jamaica's northern coast in 2009/2010. This all inclusive resort will feature the first over-the-water bungalows in Jamaica.

Excellence Resorts expands their offering to Jamaica after great success with the Excellence Riviera Maya resort and the Excellence Punta Cana. This hotel will become the fourth Excellence property after the 2007 opening of the Excellence Playa Mujeres in the Cancun area. This all inclusive facility will cater to adults-only and honeymoon couples. Look for more information as the opening date approaches. Secrets Montego Bay Secrets Montego Bay is scheduled for a mid 2009 opening. This all inclusive resort will feature 350 suites, public areas with warm neutral tones and art selections reflective of Jamaican culture.

Speidi getting married? *rolling my eyes* These two make me sick. Gack.

Yes I've heard that the traditional way to wear the wedding band is below your engagement ring. I will probably wear mine that way most of the time. I don't think I'd be able to wear anything on my right hand though because my ring finger on my right hand is bigger than my ring finger on my left hand.

I have never had anything of mine stolen while traveling, but have heard horror stories from others who have. I've started bringing my own mini safe with me when I travel. It's small enough to fit inside my suitcase and not take up too much room, but big enough for things like jewelry & money. However it wouldn't fit my camera in there, but I usually always have my camera with me anyway. One of my friends who travels alot also warned me to NEVER put your valuables in the room safe for the very reason named here. Kinda sucks, but I guess c'est la vie!

I know! I have been obsessively checking email and stalking her blog. lol

Patience is a virtue...too bad I don't really have any (I'm working on it!)! I'm so anxious to see pics...1 pic...any pic. Still waiting! I'm sure Kamila is working her tail off though. *sigh*
