I will be posting my Pre-Travel Brochures shortly. Just waiting to receive them in the mail before I post pictures and my template. Still haven't finalized the Steel Band playlist. Actually, no where close! LOL All I know is Canon in D when I walk down the aisle. I think I will just have them play what they want to. Soft, mushy songs when guests are getting to their seats and then fun songs after the ceremony. Gotta have them play The Tide is High LOL. Have you picked out any yet?

It's amazing what sneaking around does on a website! I found the Pure Paradise details along with the names and prices of the others offered.... Pure Paradise - $1800 (colors: white or pink or blue) Waves of Love - $2400 (colors: blue or green & white) Island Pearl - $2900 (colors: white or pink) Pure Paradise: Marriage Officiant and all administrative costs Lovely Vow Space décor at one of your three ceremony sites (includes your choice of the Promise Pergola, Garden Gazebo, or Angel's Atrium, adorned with 4 Fresh White Flower Pomander Balls) White garden chairs Bride's Paradise Posy (A chic rose bouquet finished with white satin ribbon and pearl pins) in Simple Stunning White Matching Groom's Boutonniere Music/iPod hookup and mic/speakers for ceremony Signing table with floating white blossom Keepsake copy of your vows A sparkling toast to your love immediately following the ceremony One-tiered white wedding cake in your choice of flavors

Right there with you! I figure if they don't find it necessary then I shouldn't either. LOL Well to the extent of telling them! I will, if I haven't already, have all details ready for when that happens! Again, trying to live the island motto... No worries!!

I was on the site this morning as well, but I didn't see the Pure Paradise package. Do you recall what was included in it? I saw the new heading picture and the extras for the paper laterns. Fingers crossed all will be posted soon!!

What email address are you using for taiflora? I usually get a response same day or next at the latest. They are quoting me ridiculous prices! Which is why I will most likely be bringing my own real touch flowers unless the new packages are priced reasonably and include what I want.

I received an email from Natalie yesterday. She's thinks the new packages will be out by the end of the month.

I posted this question in a different forum, but I figured I would ask my fellow Midwest brides! I really want to put together an optional excursion for all my guest, but I'm leary of the timeline... Tuesday - ARRIVE Wednesday - ??? Thursday - ??? Friday - WEDDING Saturday - TTD Sunday - Off to Honeymoon With the timeline above, Wednesday, Thursday and Saturday are the only options. I'm going to throw Saturday off the list since it's the day after the wedding and I'm assuming after a night of drinking, sailing might not be the best thing. LOL Plus our TTD is in the morning. Wednesday would technically be the first day in Jamaica, so I'm thinking we would want to spend it at the resort. That leaves Thursday... my biggest worry on Thursday is that it's the day before the wedding? Do I want to be on an excursion the day before??? HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Same boat. Nothing really to do... currently I'm working on the OOT bags and Pre-Travel Brochure. I'm still waiting for the new wedding packages to come out. I emailed her late last week and still haven't received a reply. Have you heard anything about them yet? What have you already planned for the wedding? For instance, she has us for the Blue Lagoon with a DJ and the fire show, as well as Steel Drums for the ceremony. I believe I told her what restaurant we want the food to be from, but haven't told her the menu. I guess I won't expect to start working with her till about 2 months out. I just want to find out the new packages, so I know if I need to bring stuff down with me!

FYI for USA - Jamaica Bound Brides... I just called the Miami based Visit Jamaica office and was told that the "Jamaica Attraction & Tours" booklet is no longer in production. They were being produced by the Association of Jamaica Attractions Limited, but they are completely web based now. She directed me to their website http://attractions-jamaica.com/. This stinks! I was hoping to add this to their Pre-Travel Package!!!

First step is to figure out your budget. Limitless or want it to be as cheap as possible for guest. That will help narrow your list!

You're getting married the day before me! How many people do you have coming? Where are you having the ceremony at? Are you having a reception or dinner at a restaurant? LOL

You get swatches of all the colors offered for the $99 linen suit.

Thanks for the update!

Wedding party and family here. I didn't even have to ask, they've been offering. Love my family & friends! Some are even trying to say that my fiance and I shouldn't bring any of the items!

Hi Sarah! Congratulations! Your wedding will be my 1 year anniversary, well by adding 1 day. Close enough!

OMG I'm SO sorry to hear that!! Where were you booked? Were you working with the wedding coordinator at the hotel as well? Again, so sorry this is happening.

Very cute and original! Love 'em!

Very cute!

When I ordered the swatches, I did receive a tracking number.

I wish I would have thought of this for my STDs!! Sadly I found this site after I did mine. They look great!
