Thanks, I love this idea!

Love it!

That's awesome, you did such a great job!

Thanks JB, I will def have to try to that when I get home today AcutieRN, thanks, I would love to know how to set up flight alerts, I usually look at Kayak to begin with but I tried looking for the alert thing and couldn't find it. Congrats Sarah on all of your progress.. I don't think any of us can open attachments yet. If you can, can you post pics???

I like the one shoulder Allure dresses, but I haven't started to look at bridesmaid dresses in person just looking online Sorry I am not much help

It took me forever to figure out how to make the monograms but JB and I both made ours on our own. I tried posting one of mine but I guess I didn't save it correctly.. it's under a word document I will post my Save the Date Boarding passes when they are done... I AM GoING TO BE A NOW BRIDE LADIES!!! My FI and I finally made the decision! Now I am working on my group rates still, she is still trying to tell me that I can't get the 6th room free reinbursment until afterwards which makes NO SENSE to me.. it's kind of bs!! I am going to fight it and hopefully get it once we are paid in full. I need to send in my deposit to secure our date! I am sooo excited ladies!! Thanks Moni.. they turned out sooo cute!!!

How do you set up flight alerts?? Quote: Originally Posted by AcutieRN She did not say when we would be credited, but I will ask her right away. We were planning on paying for out mother's rooms anyway so that is why I didn't ask ahead of time, it is just a bonus that it worked out that we will have 2 free rooms. Also, are you guys hearing about the free room upgrade with every 10?My TA said she would ask about that too. JB, thanks for the info on the kids. She sent me back the same quote as you had for kids. She said I won't have an actual contract to sign for about a week or two. She is going out of town. I spoke with her by phone too so I don't even have an email to send you. So sorry. I will send it over as soon as I have it in my hands. I hope you can stay with NOW too, I really understand about pricing though. It is very complicated! That is good to know about flight pricing coming in May...I will have to set up some alerts to keep me advised of pricing. I hope to find some for around $600 closer to end of summer, right now they are 900-1200 out of KC and Denver! It is cheaper for us to fly to Chicago the night before and leave from Chicago, but that uses up another day of vacation:(

Also, gas prices suck right now! I really do hope that the prices go down!! My TA also did say if we pay for the insurance, which most of our guest prob will since it's hurricane season.. she said that if the room rates drop, they will rebook us at the cheaper rate and give us that money back. JB I am going to have to ask her about free 6th room again.. because it's kind of pointless after the fact. I am really leaning towards NOW!!! I don't want to leave you girls! I really want the DJ!!! I hope they will let me switch it back

Wow AcutieRn, maybe she just misplaced it. It will workout! As far as rates go, they won't give me daily rates so I don't know if I am getting a crappy rate or not, but I am going in August which should be lower since it's hurricane season!! I am averaging about 135 a day if I calculate it but that is including taxes also.. Is your 117 including taxes?? If so do you mind sending it to me also???

Are they saying you can get the 6th room on arrival.. Yall might want to double check, because my TA and saying they won't credit it to me until I get back.. boo!!! I wonder if she is just saying that???

OK ladies I got my rates!!! NOW: For 3 nights, 4 days for Adults it is 407.16 and kids are 236: That's including transfers, and taxes as well. I just recieved the contract so now I have to read over the policies and make sure I am not going to be ripped off!! I am also getting the 6 room free deal! My TA said they don't credit you till after the travel, so another words you don't get the money back till you get back?? JB what did yours tell you about that? JB, Yea I have started to read that forum, and it is sooo much!! It's kind of funny, some of the arguing going on though.. I was like wow!! Also JB I don't know if your travel agent has told you but as for the Ocean resort, my TA told me that the resort is great if you are going to have TONS of kids, but if you are going to only have a few she wouldn't recommend it. I am only going to have a few kids with us so we want to make sure that we are going to have something for both the adults and kids not just the kids, you know. I just thought I would let you know about that. I also got the group rates for the Barcelo Palace but I think I might be booking the NOW!! I am going to compare the wedding packages in a few and see what fits our needs better. Does anyone know if the Devine package includes the DJ in 2012?? I would perfer the DJ!

JB, I love your dress. I am seriously considering that but I am still scared. Let me know how it goes when you get your dress I am still waiting to here back from my TA on group rates as well.

Thanks for all the information on the resort. I fwd it over to my TA and we are working on it now to get group rates

I used http://www.ayleebits.com/2006/06/10/diy-boarding-pass-save-the-date/ for a templete and it was really easy!

Well maybe they sent me the wrong one because they didn't send me that. Do you mind sending me what they sent you?? I can send you over what my TA got from them also. [email protected] Thanks so much

Thanks for all the pics and info! I am starting to design mine now and this is VERY helpful!

JB how did you post your monogram, I can't figure it out. I tried to post one this morning and then just about 5 mins ago and it won't post

Hey ladies, thanks for the complements about the message in the bottles. Everyone has loved them, my sister actually started crying because of the note that I wrote to her, I honestly think that was the best feeling ever JB I love your dress!!! I am still up in the air from the two resorts also. I kind of just wish my FI would just pick one for us.. haha!! I am also ready for airfare to come out also just so I know I am making the right decision also. Ocean sounds like a sweet deal, my TA raves about that resort btw! I am working on my monograms also, I have made about 4 now and I still am making more. I just am having too much fun. AcutieRN I love your dress also!! The dinner cruise sounds like a lot of fun since you aren't going to have that many people. I think we are probably going to have about 50 people so that would be crazy expensive for us.

I just discovered this forum!! I am so glad because I just started looking for my dress! Thanks ladies!!

Love these!! I am actually in the middle of making mine and trying to figure out what all to include on them?? As of right now I can't open any templetes because I am not a full member.. Do you mind telling me what kind of information you included on yours. Thanks!

Great job! I am about to start to design mine also!! YAY!!

JB, no I haven't gotten rates yet but I am hoping that will happen today! I will let you ladies know as soon as a figure things out! I wish I could find out my airfare but it still isn't posted and probably won't be till August or September. I hope I can find as good as rates as you Moni or Sarah. congrats Sarah and welcome to the forums!!! BTW I made my message in the bottle, asking my bridesmaids to be in the wedding and so far everyone has LOVED them!!

Hey ladies, I am starting to wonder if they sent me the correct packages because on the website it is giving me the same packages that you are talking about but that isn't the packages they sent to my email. It is A LOT cheaper actually then what they have online. I need to make sure that they sent me the correct things!

Thanks so much!!! I have been having a really hard time finding out how to make my own monograms!!
