  1. Thanks for this. Didn't realize you could cut the cake during dinner. Although I have booked the Wet Bar, the jury is still out on how many ppl will be joining us and I am not sure if I am having a reception.
  2. We are having a symbolic ceremony as well. (we are renewing our vows) I am extremely excited. I thought I would have a simple something but planning has consumed me. It is all I can think about. LOL
  3. I do believe 7-8 months is fairly early to start panicking. My travel agent gave Nov 30, as a deadline for a down payment. I am not expecting a lot of ppl but I will use that to gage how many ppl I should expect. Happy planning ladiessss!
  4. I think a Facebook group is a good idea. You wouldn't think of that as a tool for a traditional wedding but that's a good idea!
  5. Hey Nikki, you are probably still away but how did things work out with the last minute bookers????
  6. The flights are currently in the low $400s but I am hoping they stay reasonable and go up to $500. My biggest fear is my guests paying $800 for flights which happened to a girlffriend of mine attending a destination wedding in DR last year.
  7. I definitely agree...a travel agent is the way top go. I am so happy my guests have a central place to make payments and someone to assist with all the travel arrangements, etc.
  8. I traveled to a wedding in another state and was offended when asked to pay for the rehearsal dinner. I def wouldn't have ppl pay for their own dinner especially with the distance they are traveling. Decisions, Decisions! I do believe it is YOUR day and should be planned YOUR way soooo "Whatever floats your boat". LOL. Happy planning!
  9. Congrats to you! I'm jealous! j/k LOL. Enjoy those templates...I'm right behind ya! Happy planning!
  10. I would think chiffon or organza would be the best fabrics but I keep falling in love with satin and taffeta dresses! My plan when I start trying-on is to only go for the lighter fabrics!
  11. Hi Nicole, Welcome aboard. I am renewing my vows at the Majestic Colonial. Although I have not been there, my mom has and she raves about the resort. The decision make for me was the price for my guests. I figured if I wanted anyone to show up, I would have to make it reasonable. Happy planning!
  12. I am navigating this site very well. So well, I am up to 2 and 3 in the morning every night. LOL
  13. I AM ADDICTED TO THIS FORUM!!!!!!! ENJOY! Happy planning!
  14. Wow. Makes me want to get married in Mexico. Elizabeth Medina does a good job. I love how she snaps shots of details.
  15. I haven't done much planning. LOL. I sent out electronic save-the-dates via pping.com because I was press for time (10 mos. for guests to make payments, etc) I planned on sending save-the-sated through the mail or maybe just skipping straight to invitations. I booked Tropical pictures for the time being. Booked Pastor york. Booked the Wet Bar for our reception. Wow, I guess I did do a lot...lol. How bout you?
  16. I LOVE this step by step DIY thread! Makes me super excited to attempt it! Thanks for this!!
  17. I love the natural looks, I am going natural and looking of different ways to deal with my hair in the heat and humid! THANKS! Happy planning!
  18. I love the idea of convertible dresses. I think that BMs of all sizes can wear them and that's the beauty of it!
  19. I love pictures and love the idea of a TTD session but my husband is the one who will not go for it.
  20. Not being a downer at all! I thank you for your honesty. I'm not doing TTD so I figured I would need someone for 3-4 hours max. I was considering using the photographer at the Majestic Colonial. Bringing someone down would mean their travel but also the $300 resort fee. I guess it is still something to look into. I will def reconsider. Thanks again.
  21. Hi KaynMike...I am getting married at MC on 8/11/12. Yay! Happy planning!
  22. I too chose the Majestic Colonial because it was cost effective to my guests. I have also had a great experience with my wedding coordinator. My WC promptly responds to my emails. I am pleased thus far. Happy planning ladies!
  23. These are gorgeous. I am grinning from ear to ear and cannot wait to get the chance to post my happiest moment! *tear*
  24. I am going to their sample sale in November in hopes to see something I like and return for the blowout sale. SALE is my middle name!
