Tam

Thanks for all the info.. I look at the pics of DPC every chance I get... I like how your pictures of the terraces aren't staged just for photos. I only saw a small bit of the beach, what it as bad as people say it is?

Ok Erin, I sent it to you...

I would love to see some pics of the beach, the terraces (not made up for hotel pics!) and anything to do with weddings.. chuppah, etc. Have an awesome time and take lots of pictures.. You know we'll be after you!! (in a good way, not psycho)lol

Ok Erin, I will send it to you right now... Just gotta vent for a minute, not too happy with my TA... and apparently some of my guests are not too happy with her either.. just lots of little mistakes which thankfully I am catching, but come on, I am paying for her services and she keeps asking me to contact people for her.. WTF, last I checked, it's her job, not mine...I am giving her over $40 000 of business..anyway had to get that off my chest as I just hung up with her. :S

I said before I couldn't upload it, so you said you would post it...but don't worry as no one really said anything anyway about wanting it.

Erin black, white & pink are our colours too!! Guys will be wearing black pants, white short sleeve shirts. BMs will have black cocktail dresses, flower girls white/pink dresses (haven't decided that one). My dress is ivory too, and I'm going to have a hot pink bouquet... haven't fully decided on what the BM flowers will look like... bought some, but not sure what Im going to do yet. I find it difficult to co-ordinate right now! Maybe just b/c I'm tired.

Erin, did I send you the wording? I can't remember as I was away up north all weekend...let me know and I will send it to you

I am interested in the white board, I will take one or two (if roo66 wants one that's fine), I will take the other. Do you have markers for them? I will PM you.

I am interested. My postal code is L4C 5K7 (obviously up in Canada). Let me know about shipping costs and if it's not too bad, I would love to take those.

Sorry Stacey, I sent you a pm a second ago without seeing you had just posted today!! weird. I was backtracking to see who else was buying stuff from her.. How can people do this ?? I am so upset, I sent her over $120!

HOly crap!! I just sent a message to Stacey asking her if she received the pants because I never received the bouquets I paid for on paypal.... WTF!! NOw I want to go to paypal to and ask for my $$ back... I tried numerous times to contact her with no response... I can't believe this whole time I was trying to give her the benefit of the doubt and I am not the only one...

I got Deyanira to send me the wording for a typical ceremony at the hotel, but I don't think my status allows me to upload.

I'm going to order a set and see what it lookes like when they come in. Thanks a Bunch Let me know too... since my flowers have yet to arrive from almost a month ago, I can refigure my colour scheme if I want to ...

I know exactly how you feel.... I pick up my dress next month, only tried it on once and when I bought it, it was from another store from where I tried it on... Now I am worrying about not liking it. And, I see soooo many other dresses out there that are so nice.

Good to know as I was thinking of ordering some organza ones from them too.

El Patio's terrace is ground level quite close to the main lobby area far away from the ocean. The Bordeaux's terrace is on the 2nd floor of a 3 restaurant complex close to the ocean, but the bar used for that one is open to the public as well. The Hmitsu terrace is a 2nd floor one again close to the main lobby but fairly private as they set up a private bar just for you and your guests (that's the one we chose). Hope that helps out!! that totally helps. Do you have any other dos or don'ts... maybe a wedding review?? Did you have a civil or symbolic ceremony?

what is tea length? I PMd you... sorry for the material question..just realized you said it already.

I did pay through paypal, I have all the PMs saying she sent the stuff, but now no response AT ALL to any PMs or emails.... I will have to contact paypal I guess. I have been trying to give the benefit of doubt, but it's been a month I paid her this weekend and nothing.

BTW, I STILL have not received my flowers... really starting to think I was taken

What welcome kit is everyone talking about?? OMG, I miss one day and I'm out of the loop! Toya, You did an awesome job!! Thank you very much, I added pictures after Gerry showed me how... just not tech savy ya know!

Nat, how are you going to work?? Lucky you, you miss a winter!

You make sure your Mom holds her head up high and looks fabulous... just not as fabulous as you. Enjoy your day ... don't forget the photographer is your friend!!

where did all my peeps go this weekend?? FYI, I sent Deyanira an email tonight asking about what kind of dialogue is in the symbolic and civil ceremonies as well as which terrace is on the ocean.
