Wow, you are an overachiever! You go girl! I love the shell with the rings idea! Look forward to seeing all your great purchases!

You're welcome! Glad I can help! Wow, that's awesome that you can reuse bridesmaid dresses! I don't think it will look weird, my friend was a guestbook person in someone's wedding and she had the exact same dress as the bridesmaids. So I say go for it if she fits into one of the dresses!

Also, I don't think you can use resort credits for add-ons you can only use then towards the wedding packages.

I have been told by other BDW brides that Palace resorts will not allow you to ship things to the resort for liability issues. Most brides just have other members of their family brings extra suitcases in order to get all the stuff down there and it's probably cheaper that way than shipping it.

How's planning going for the Sun Palace brides? Any hiccups along the way or advice? Thanks!

I don't know if you got any responses from the other thread, but from your description she's your "personal attendent" I am that in a friends wedding in October and I am just wearing a black dress (the bridesmaids are also wearing black dresses). She will most likely be my personal attendant in my wedding and I will like to include her in photos so I would like her to wear a dress in one of my wedding colors in order to coordinate. I couldn't ask her to buy an expensive bridesmaid dress when she isn't a bridesmaid, but if I just tell her to find a dress in orange, yellow or purple then hopefully she can find a cheaper dress. hope this helps!

yaaaay! congrats! can't wait to see pics and see your review! Enjoy your day!

If I do anything, I will have a BBQ or a fiesta type party, no real reception for me! The point of a DW besides the beauty of Mexico is that it is cheaper!

Congrats Katrina! Glad to hear another palace resort besides Moon has used Marvin and everything went smoothly! Did you have a family member put the centerpieces on the table or did the WC do them for you? Can't wait to see photos and hopefully read your review!

Congrats! Beatiful pictures and you were a beautiful bride! Can't wait to read your review!

cute! what website did you make the magnets?

Thanks for the tip! I guess I need to decide if I want to go with Teresa or a local TA who specializes in DW! I wonder how your parents have gotten $100 back when MPweddingplan was told they don't change their hotel prices. Have any other ladies been told they don't change their prices? I'm slightly confused now. Thanks!

Really? That is good to know then that the prices will not change. It's good to hear she can beat MP prices and that she offers a payment plan! Thanks!

Does Teresa do some sort of Price match? . if the price goes down, she will refund you the difference type of thing? Or are you locked in for the price that you put down your deposit for? Does she offer payment plans?

Does anyone know if Moon palace has some sort of "calender of events" regarding when they have conventions and other types of things happening? I don't want to choose a weekend when there is a big convention.

wow- 75% off!! I hope they are that cheap when I need them!

Very good point! No one wants a book of just the bride and groom- they want it to be a book of the vacation and be included in the photos!!!

Wow, that is awesome! I'm so glad I saw this because I am very excited to make them now!! Thank you!!!

Wow this is amazing!!! You did a wonderful job! I am so stealing this idea- but I will probably make the smaller books! How much did the books you made cost you to send in the mail? Thankyou so much for sharing!

Hey Jess! I lost about 6 pounds so far- I did the shred for 30 days and now alternating the shred with another one of Jilians videos. I am not really dieting per say, I just try to eat better when I eat and not eat out as much. I try not to drink as much either on the weekends. I have definetly seen defination in my arms and my thighs and stomach has tightened up and I would say I have a 2-pack now, haha. All of my pants are now baggy in the waist and the thighs! You will def see a change! Just give it about a week before you look for changes in your body!

Great! How easy is that for maracas! It will probably depend on how many people and how much room I have as to whether I'll buy then cheaper before or just buy them there!

These are so cute! Where did they come from? It would be so much easier to just buy the maracas in Mexico and not have to worry about bringing them down in a suitcase!

Yes you can repeat it. I did it for 30 days and I have purchased another one of her DVDS and I mix it up between the two. I plan to buy a few more and then in about 6 months do the 30 day shred again!

I assumed I would be getting different answers........ that's Palace resorts for you! I hope that if I have the "no outside vendors" removed from my wedding contract and have written in there that I am only charged for day passes then (fingers crossed) I will be okay!

Are you ladies just paying day passes for DJ Mannia or are they charging you the outside vendor fee to bring him in?
