  1. I would very much love to have a group photo done right after the ceremony but I have been told by a few DBs that it's hopeless trying to get everyone assembled etc. How many of you did it at your wedding? Can you post the pic? For those not yet married, do you plan to have a group photo done? (sorry if this has already been covered and I missed it, I searched!)
  2. Welcome to the forum! It may seem far off, but you won't believe how fast time flies....enjoy your planning

Plus, with 5 restaurants you're sure to find something you like I have the wedding menus, let me know if you'd like to see them.

    Congrats and welcome - we are getting married at Iberostar Laguna Azul too!
  6. Our wedding coordinator has also told us that not much needs to be decided until a month before - it's scary waiting until so close!
  7. My FI's one request for our wedding was that I wear my hair up, but I can't find a style I love yet...I definitely want a stargazer lily pinned in somehow, my girls dresses are fuchsia and white so it will match perfectly! StargazerLily.pdf

There is plenty of photos and info now on Trip Advisor - just search Iberostar Laguna Azul and the reviews and photos will pop up. You can also go to Diaporamas - Voyagesarabais.com for some great pictures.
  9. We are paying for our photographer's travel expenses for the week (around $1300) and he is bringing his fiance at his own expense. He is a good friend so I know he will be taking photos all week of our group and will be available whenever we need him on the day of the wedding. He is giving us the edited CD of photos and even threw in our engagement shoot as well!
  10. Great bags, your guests will definitely appreciate them! I would love to do something similar but I am worried about the cost of getting them all there....let us know what you decide!
  11. Welcome to the site! I'm from Ontario too, engaged to a guy from the same small town I grew up in and having a Cuba wedding so we have lots in common! Happy planning
  12. I ordered them from Netbride and truly wanted one for myself...I just love them! TheDress.pdf
  13. Just joined Fit Day and think it's really going to help! Thanks for the link. I tried your recipe LDeeken - it's delicious! Not a fan of mushrooms so I left them out but it's still very filling. I'm going to try Midnight24's morning exercises this week - thanks everyone! There's nothing like sharing a common goal
  14. I bet the photos are amazing....still don't think I can do it to my beautiful dress though!!
  15. Gorgeous dress! I am thinking about getting my bm dresses through Netbride, so it's good to hear you are (mostly) satisfied with your experience!
  16. Welcome to the site, I think you will find everything you are looking for and more!
  17. We are definitely having a jack & jill/stag & doe. Pretty much everyone has one where we're from! It's a great way to get everyone together for a fun party and we know people who have raised as much as $15,000 at their stag & doe. It is a lot of work though, there are prizes to buy (we plan to get a Wii to raffle off, golf clubs, that sort of thing), tickets to be made up, a hall to rent, food to oraganize, liquor and beer to pick up (along with the licenses)...it's not something you can throw in a month, that's for sure. But the hard work is worth it! We are having ours a few weeks before we leave.
  18. I would love to be a part of the APRIL BRIDES GET FIT! Great idea!!

    Hi

    Welcome! I have heard great things about St. Lucia, but never been...good luck, deciding is the hardest part!!
  21. Congratulations, welcome to the site!
  22. For those who haven't seen it yet, there are lots of great photos posted here! It's finally open! I'm Going to Cuba !!
  23. Hi Ladies, Glad there is a thread just for us! I am getting married at ILA on April 27th, 2010. I am dying to see the first wedding photos from the resort, so it will be interesting to see who that first bride is! So far, we have exactly 60 guests booked, inluding my fiance and I. My good friend is also getting married the same week, same resort as us so between our groups, we will be travelling with about 100 people! I'm wondering if anyone has been able to get specifics on where exactly their ceremony and reception will be taking place? Thanks!
