Here is the link to all of our wedding pictures!! There is pictures on there from the entire week too...so you could probaly sit here all day looking at them! But all 80 of the proff pictures are on here! http://scottandnicolewedding1222010.shutterfly.com/

i was nervous about the spa too because i had hair extensions, but they put them in perfectly and she didn't even use all the extensions i brought with me. the wedding night was interesting with my "husband" trying to get those extensions out though!! we had a good laugh!

Yes I got my flowers through the resort also. they were awsome. michele met the groomsmen and put their boutineers on them...and delivered our flowers to my room when we were getting ready.

We just got back from our wedding. My wedding cordinator actually wrapped the sand ceremony up with bubble wrap and packaging tape. (my sand ceremony also came with a cork) and we put it in our carry on. When we went through customs in mexico, they did make us unwrap it to see what it was. After they looked at it the used duct tape and put it back together and told us we are all set.

We are back from our GORGEOUS wedding!! Everything was sooo perfect (except the first flight being cancelled). I told my hubby at one point, I need to tell the girls on that website the stress alllll year is not necessary!! I was so worried and stressed for a year, we met with Michele the day before the wedding for a half hour and she totally had everything set the exact way we wanted it! I would have not done one thing different. SPAzul was AWSOME!! My hair and make up was perfect. I know the stereotypical thing to say is that you feel the prettiest on your wedding day. But I must admit whether it sounds tacky or not, I truely felt the prettiest on my wedding day then I have ever felt in my life. And I believe I will never, ever, feel as beautiful as I did on our wedding day. Thank you to the lovely ladies at SPAzul. The photographer from the resort was awsome! He brought us all around the resort and did tons of pictures. They called me the day after the wedding, with the website to see the pictures and select the amount I purchased with my package. I emailed them Friday night with my picture selection. The album was at the front desk waiting for me Sunday at 5! The photographer made me feel awsome, he just kept saying "Wow Nicole you are beautiful, you make my job so easy, you are such a natural!" lol now I know they say that to everyone, but it worked and made me feel so great! We did a semi private reception at Albatros. The food was AMAZING! It was the best meal I ate all week. We had a garden salad, and a beef tourpedo...it was basically 2 small filet mignons. They were good better than I've ever had! The service was awsome, and the cake looked and tasted great. We missed the cocktail hour doing pictures, but just about every guest made a point to tell me how great the food was. When we met with Michele the night before she asked if there was specific food selections we wanted or if there was any allergies. I asked how many we could choose, and she said they would send all hot and all cold on the menu, unless I want different. So of course I told her to send them all, if someone doesn't like somthing they don't have to eat it! Michele was great. The day after the wedding I went down to pick up my stuff and she was there. Another lady talked to me and gave me the items. Michele had all of my extra stuff all set up in a bag behind her desk for me. She wrapped my sand ceremony up with bubble wrap and packaging tape. I didnt open it until we got home and all of the sand stayed put. (Although, customs in Mexico made us open it up to show them what it was) But the TSA person felt bad when he realized what it was and taped it all back together for us. We saw about 5 or 6 weddings going on within the 7 days we were there. The resort was gorgeous and all of our guests had an awsome time. Nobody wanted to leave!! Weather was awsome, it rained one day for about 10 minutes, but it was still sunny out anyways!

Well we were supposed to leave this AM for Mexico, wedding is thursday...didnt our flight get cancelled due to mechanical problems!! We will try to leave again tomorrow AM. I had a meeting sched with Michele tomorrow at 10AM, so I just called and spoke to Lily, she re booked it for me to meet with michele tomorow at 5pm. She said they would really rather meet ASAP and can't wait until the day before the wedding to meet with her. Great!! So I need all the prayers I can get that we get out of here tomorrow and get to Mexico on time!!

I'm working with Michele, I really haven't had much to really ask her. But she took care of everything I needed. I meet with her Tuesday when we get there. I did email her and gave her all the bridesmaids appts and she responded within 10 mins and confirmed they have been set up.

So I looked up the forcast and it says showers for wedding day!!! I'm waiting to see the hour by hour forcast!! I just want pictures on the beach....

oops lol see whats on mind!! not the tsa wedding site lol....their "website!!"

Great!! Thanks guys! Now I see on the TSA wedding site that the garmet bag for a wedding dress can only be 45 inches??? I feel like mine is bigger than that...

I was going to email my WC- but I figured I may get a lot quicker of an answer here!! Does anyone know did they have a dry cleaning place that could steam my dress?? I don't really want to have it steamed here and then travel with it and it be a mess again. I bought a steamer but I'm afraid to do it myself if they have a place!

I actually gave my OOT bags out! I have a couple to give on Thanksgiving. I wanted to give them out so it was one less thing I have to travel with...and people can pick and choose what they want to bring with them!!

Thanks ladies!! That makes me feel so much better! There has been so much drama with the aunt, she was fully paid and then backed out because it wasn't something "she really wanted to do" she told me!! So I've been kind of hurt about it for the past 4 months, and now last night she calls and says "Ok I'm booked I'm going!!" And I say Ok great...thinking in my mind, ok now I need to get one more OOT bag together, I have to get a hold of the WC to add her and get her a day pass to spend the whole day there....ughh I'm glad she's going but I guess it will all work! We leave November 29th!! 2 weeks from tomorrow!! I just picked up my hair extensions today!! lol

So my aunt just called me last night and she's decided to go to the wedding now!! Well we only have 3 weeks before the wedding. I've already made my final payment and contacted by an onsite cordinator (which won't return my emails) How am I going to add one more person for the reception...has anyone experienced this?

I was OK with Ana not responding to me right away, but I figured the on site cordinator would respond within a week atleast since my wedding is 2 weeks away here!! LOL But I'm sure the on site cordinators are a little more busy because they are also dealing with weddings going on each day.

I was contacted my Michele as my on site cordinator on last Thursday. She emailed me asking when we would be getting in and all to set up our meeting...I responded right away and still haven't heard back. Is this normal? Should I email her again?

I registered for a hand steamer for the same reason! Hoping I have room in my luggage for it!!

out of town bags

Did everyone bring a cake topper down with them? I wondering if I could skip the cake topper, because the cake I picked has alot on it...and I'm trying to pack as least as possible....well I guess I could just get the kind of topper that is the letter..that's simple. Â For our at home reception I ordered a topper for my FH- It is his college sport team themed. The bride is dragging the groom and he has the team helmet on his lap, it's pretty funny. But I don't want to bring that to Mexico it was pretty pricey to risk anything happening to...

Is anyone else working with Ana as a WC? She has been wonderful all along emailing back right away and even emailing me randomly to see if I have questions. But about a week ago she said she was going to set up my hair appt and let me know when it's confirmed. Ive emailed her a couple dys ago and asked if it's been confirmed and still haven't heard back.....

A couple of you guys replied back to me when I asked if there was a phone number to SPAzul at Royal. Thank you! Â My question now is...the only number I've recieved is an international number, which I'm not about to call and get charged crazy money just to set up hair apts...I was thinking of calling to resorts front desk, which I would imagine there is an 800 to, and asking to be transfered to the Spa? Has anyone tried this? I'm really nervous to wait until the day before the wedding when the bridesmaids get down there to make appts. The wedding is at 2 so we would need 6 appts to be done by 2....and if they already have other appts booked we will be SOL!! : )

Does anyone have the number for Spazul at Royal? I would like to set up hair/make up appts...

See Ana did not tell me they can call and set up their own appt!! I'm going to have them call on their own and if they don't call and set it up then it's on them...i feel like I'm babysitting 2 of my bridesmaids because its like they cant do anything for themselves and they still haven't gotten passports or paid for their trip!! Â

So I know many of you didn't/aren't using the SPAzul services for hair and make up....but for any of you that did or plan to... Â I asked Ana (WC) to set up appts now, and she said she was able to. So I let her know I have myself and 6 others to set up for appts for the day of the wedding...some want hair/make up some just hair appts. She said she would get them set up and would add it to my final wedding payment due...I told her that would be fine for my own, but I don't want to be adding 6 others to my final wedding payment. I know they can just give me the money, but I've been screwed over way too many times with money during this wedding I don't want to stress it! Â So she said they can set up the appt when they get there and pay that day for the appt when they get there....but to know it is subject to availability. And if I change my mind to let her know and she can set up prepaid appts? Â I would like my bridesmaids and mother, MIL to get their appts set up now so they don't miss out. Has anyone set up appts in advance and told the SPAzul that you will pay day of the appt? It's crazy to me that in order to book in advance it has to get added to my total due for final payment!

I'm checking out the special packages listed on the website to include in my pre travel brocure to my guests. I see golf at Playacar Golf Club is included if you book a certain type of room. Has anyone golfed here, and did you have to mention to them beforehand or while booking that you want the golf package, or can you just have them set a tee time while you are there? Â thank you!
