Ladies - are you getting married in the wedding gazebo or on the beach? And I'm thinking about the pool deck for my reception but would it be too dark? Do you know what kind of lighting they have near there? Rdsjcr - I'm thinking of going with Real Touch flowers & have been looking through people's wedding pictures on this site & browsing through wedding pictures by color on The Knot to get inspiration for my flowers & just saving any pictures that look great to me. That way I can send the pictures to the florist

Thanks Princess! Is the pool deck you're talking about the one by the infinity pool? I remember seeing pictures of a reception with the blue lights of the infinity pool.. which I loved.

Im trying to get my FI to wear shoes for our ceremony pictures - but that's only because we are very close in height.. so I want him to have all the extra height possible! But the flip flops look nice as well

My vote is for #1!!

Welcome to the forum I'm sure you'll find plenty of ideas here!

First for both of us

outside : Sunshine

Oh good! Thanks so much for filling me in I'm definitely reach out to her and get a quote then!

Love.. Cheeseburger?

haha okay! I finally found it - since the forum is going so slow it took forever to load the pages! I see what your talking about with the chairs now I like the brown ones! But I would prefer white chairs.. so maybe i'll be going with the included ones And now that you ladies mention the reception I better get in gear and put in a request I guess for where I want my reception!

Oh good - I'm glad it's not just me dealing with it! Carly thanks for the link/info

Hello & welcome to the forum!

Good Luck! ~ Erica Meyer2010 - Thanks for posting your pic. I'm debating the idea of using some of the "real touch" flowers and was wondering what you thought of them? When you see them in person can you easily tell that they are faux flowers or do they look realistic?

Boo - I hate to be a pain but this shows me that we have 29 pages, do you happen to remember around what date those pictures were posted? I can just look back that way if you do!

Welcome Kendra!! Congratulations & best wishes for your wedding planning

Tonir - don't be bummed! It's different for every situation, like you said you don't really have elderly guests coming, the cost is high, and your ceremony is short! Im sure it will be great... chairs or no chairs!

And now that you mention it I never even thought of the cocktail linens not going all the way to the ground! I'm thinking I may bring some stuff down with me.. like sashes for the chairs.. not sure yet though.

Thanks for the advice Roxyqt!! I'll definitely call up the bridal shops before I go to make sure they have some of the Mikaella dresses - and if not I can always try on the Paloma gowns

Boo are you renting linens through the resort or bringing some down with you?

Well, personally I wouldn't wait to start planning it until a couple of months before.. especially if your not flexible about when you're getting married. If I were in your situation I would probably get in touch with a travel agent now.. just to get the ball rolling and book a resort. And a travel agent who is experienced in destination wedding will be able to help you with the overall time line of when to start doing things. Also if you know what resort you want to get married at check out that resorts thread on the board - the girls on it will be able to offer you advice/tips If you want to use a travel agent from here just go to the top of the page and click on the button about looking for a destination wedding travel planner! Hope this helps...

Welcome Jennifer! Best of luck with your wedding planning
