I started emailing Yamina back in December, but that was only really for package options and such. I have been accumulating my questions/pictures and emailing when I have a bunch or if I need to know so I can start working on a project (ie welcome booklets!) She has been pretty amazing and I meet with her Saturday when we arrive. Any how, if I were you I would email her pictures and such now, just to see if it is an actual possibility and then finalize everything there! HTH-Jess

Hi ladies! I have a question for those of you who have been to EPM... Yamina confirmed by reception/dinner will be held at Agave restaurant. For the cocktail hour I have the Agave terrace or Revive bar. Which do you think would be best? Thanks for your help!

pink & green!

Thanks Thope!

These are awesome! Especially the book! Would you mind sharing the template?!

Thope- your pictures are absolutely beautiful!!! Congratulations! Question- were the chairs included or did you pay an upgrade for them? (Normally I see the white plastic chairs and I don't like them, I would much rather have the chiavari (sp?) chairs like you did!)

Thanks so much for sharing Autumn!!! You are so amazingly creative!

Thank you SO VERY MUCH for sharing this!!! I will be sure to post pictures of my finished project! Thanks again!

Hi Ladies! I hope planning is going well for everyone! Has anyone made a welcome book for their guests? I am thinking about making one and wanted to see if any other EPM brides already had...

My dress has ruching and can't be ironed either- Yamina emailed me that they do have a steamer.

Hi Ladies! Has anyone put together a welcome/guest book for when the guests arrive at the resort? thope- I don't know what I'm putting in my guest bag yet- but I will be sure to post when I do! I did NOT want to do towels either. I bought them from target and only 16 took up a lot of space and were super heavy. They weren't that great of a quality and I decided it wasn't worth it. I want to put a welcome/guest book in each bag, but I haven't really gotten anything else. There is a thread on here about what people liked/used and didn't- you might want to check that out. All I know is whatever I do- I have to keep it cheap! FI is upset right now because I ordered custom hand painted maracas and he does not like to spend money!!! As for the bags, I ordered a pink/white beach bag for each the girls and a green pull-string backpack type bag for the guys. On the girls I will iron on my logo (below) but instead of our names I will put the girls name- I won't be doing this for the guys- I don't think they'd like it. On my bag I'm going to put "Mrs. D***" instead of "Jessica & Adam."

Congrats, Rebecca! I can't wait to see the pictures!

Ladies, I am so sorry, I have not been on here for a while to help you out! Diva- it looks like you solved your problems- your monogram looks great!

Snickers- congrats & welcome!
