Hmm...that is confusing. Maybe she was in a hurry since they're supposed to be off for awhile and just sent you the wrong person's forms or something? I hope you don't have to wait too long to hear back!

Congrats!!! That is so exciting!!!! After I sent mine in, I emailed Kimberly back a few days later to get a 100%confirmation b/c she didn't send me one. Just a heads up that you might want to do that Quote: Originally Posted by jesmcan Hi Ladies interested in the bachelorette part info.

They just went straight through the resort. I am going to ask my TA stay tuned and I will let you guys know. Thanks jesmcan!!

Oh how adorable! That is a really sweet idea. They're going to love them!

WOW your pics are beautiful!! Y'all looked like you had such a blast! I'm doing glow-in-the-dark necklaces, too! It looks like they were a success, lol! Congrats! Hahahahaha! I love the pics of "McQueen's estranged Mexican uncle", too! That's exactly what he looks like! Too cute & they did a great job!

I'm not a mom yet, either, but I'm SUPER modest about naked body parts so there's no way I would do that in front of anyone. Not because its sexual to me or anything just because I don't want to see other women's boobs and I don't want them to see mine, lol. Plus honestly, no matter what people say, someone (esp. preteen/teenage boys) who sees it is going to sexualize it if there is a boob hanging out. Plain and simple haha.

Hahahahaha! that's too funny & cute! I'll def be using this tip thanks NaM!

Quote: Originally Posted by SillyGirl Thank you, Fi and I have been considering it, but were not showy ppl. I think were starting to lean toward not having one. I'm feeling you there! We're kinda counting our engagement party as an AHR-type thing, if that makes sense. Also, I know I would be one of those who would regret an AHR for the money reason. Both of us have quite a few family members coming to the DW, though, (18ppl out of the total 25) so that's prob another reason we're not gonna do one.

Thanks so much for bumping this back! I had seen stuff about the receipts but didn't really think about how big a deal it could be. So great!!

For those interested there's another thread w/links to cheap key card holders and the elastic bracelets! http://bestdestinationwedding.com/forum/t48641

Quote: Originally Posted by Chelymo It seems that my future step daughter decided it was more important to be at the wedding than prom. It definitely makes things so much easier to deal with. FI and I decided that we will let her invite one of her friends and ask the friend to pay just for the airfare. Thanks everyone that was a great idea! So all worked out at the end. Yipeeeeee!!!!!!! Excellent!!! What a relief for you & FI! She'll have a blast & get to be part of the day so everyone wins! Yay!!

Desties all the way!

I would've got the horizontal ones (b/c I think they would get in the way less on the bracelet), if they were as cheap as the vertical, but it didn't matter to me enough to pay the extra $20+.

Quote: Originally Posted by jesmcan Hi, I am doing the same I have been to Playa many times and it is the perfect place for a bachelorette party!! In the past for $60 per person all you can drink they give you a bracelet and you can go from place to place. You get to go VIP style it is a lot of fun. They offer a list, I know Senor Frogs, Zenzi, Mammitas, are on there. Quote: Originally Posted by Lady_Di how do i find out about that?? i would LOVE to do that!! me too! me too!

I love the option of giving guests the choice of the less expensive gran porto resort too! Unfortunately, I'm a long way from setting a date...I'm hoping for April 2011 (however we may have to wait even longer, depending on FI's work! boo!) All your posts and reviews have been super helpful! I'm also excited to find out how the a la carte weddings will pan out! Welcome!! It's never too early to start planning. Picking the resort seems to be one of the hardest part so you're way ahead of the game!! I'm so curious about those a la carte weddings, too! You'll have to fill us in when you get the info!

thanks for bumping this thread back up! those books are totally adorable!! What a fantastic idea!

Aw man, that stinks big time! I'm so sorry for your situation You're very sweet to be so concerned but definitely should not feel bad. I agree w/the other ladies on the choices since FI already decided no date change again, let her bring a friend or two to the wedding; or let her decide which she would rather do. Good Luck!!
