So sorry to hear of your experience! I actually heard a similar thing from a girl who got married in the Mayan just as I was starting to plan my DW... it really scared me at first. Her main issue was trying to make sure everyone was having a good time and everyone coming to her when they had an issue. I really hope I don't have to deal with this, but even already with our booking people have been coming to me anytime they have a problem instead of talking to the TA (and worst of all, it's my MOH/younger sister that stresses me out the most!). Thanks for the honest post. It's good to have a realistic outlook on what to expect!

I want: YouTube - Forever by Ben Harper but FI really wants: YouTube - We Are Man and Wife Michelle Featherstone I originally told him it was his choice, but maybe we'll have to have a 2nd dance song too

Here's ours.. I had a friend make it, I couldn't figure out the DIY directions :/

This is my MOH's dress as well. We supposedly got one of the 'last' ones as well Apparently Dessy had issues with the suppliers of the fabric. Too bad, it's a beautiful and vibrant dress!!

I love this!! Thanks for posting

Welcome, Peggy! I'm not sure which resort you're getting married at, but there is a great thread on Dreams La Romana: http://bestdestinationwedding.com/fo...-romana-39815/ Happy planning!

Welcome, Julie!! If you have any info that you don't see posted here that you think may be helpful to the group, feel free to share! Happy planning!

Well, I'm still toying around with ideas and admittedly these don't look as real as 'real touch' but they are as close as I'm going to get I think! My girls are all wearing different shades of pink/fuchsia/coral so I thought green would be most neutral and then the ribbon would tie in the colours.

Oh wow, that's super scary and very serious! Stay positive and focus on your health. Keep us posted! Sending big hugs and positive vibes your way!

Also, here is a link to a bunch of photos taken this week by the DR expert 'Baltobabe': Dreams LaRomana Jan 16 2010 pictures, photos, and videos, from caribbean on webshots Very detailed account of the resort.

Great suggestions, Heather!

My TA says the buildings shook and the pool overflowed, but otherwise they're fine.

Great job! I bought the same orchid stem to make my DIY hair flower/feather. They look SOO real and feel the same! I'm also making my BM's bouquets from Michael's. I wish they would get more real touch flowers in stock

Hi ladies, I think someone was asking about a menu for the SSG. Tiara just sent me the attached menu but said it's subject to change every 2-3 months. Not sure I'm too crazy about it, but I'm an extremely picky eater... I can see how/why they charge so much for the special 'wedding' menu now. What do you guys think? What would you choose to serve? Also, has anyone seen the DLR fan page on facebook? There looks to be a couple February brides on there - I wish they would come to BDW to share their experiences! SS GRIL DINNER[1].pdf

Ohh, that's right by my house! I'll check it out

I did my invitations with them and recently just ordered a bunch more wedding related stuff. There is a thread about all the things you can do with VistaPrint on here somewhere, try to do a search.

Heather, are you placing the lantern right on the table as the centrepiece? Hmmm...I actually think that's a GREAT idea!

Oohh, thanks! I'll be going at lunch tmrw!

WOW, this is incredible!! I'm exhausted just seeing all your DIY projects! Congrats!!!

What a great idea for shower favours!!

Awwww finally a GOOD story about a FMIL! lol Lucky girl!!

Ooh, I'd love to know the price as well. Anyone know if they do 'snuba' too? (snorkeling/scuba diving - you don't need to be certified, just take an oxygen line down)

hjack - thanks so much for posting Tiara's responses! SunandSand - Is the $1000 rental of SSG in writing anywhere or is this something you negotiated separately? Also, is there a specific type of speaker I should ask for, or just the portable ones? (That's a great idea btw! How big are they?)

Love that!! Super cute
