thanx savs! i actually had a long veil and ended up not wearing it. i was never 100% certain i wanted to wear it and since the whole morning was spent worried about rain i ended up going to get my hair done without the veil lol afterwards we thoguht we could just stick it in but my hair was a little too high for it and lorena brought me 2 flowers and i loved how it looked so i just went without the veil... i guess i was meant to be veil-less lol

I believe I paid 100$ for the cake.. i dont remember how much extra it was per person and i dont have the break down infront of me. we also had a table of desserts come out at the end so i wasnt too worried about the cake .. i had almost 50 people but i think i got the cake for 35 or 40 people. also she charged me $40 for the flowers on it because otherwise she said it would just have been plain white. The cake was honestly DELICIOUS. i have pictures of after my groom fed me the cake i just kept eating it lol it was REALLY good ( we had chocolate ). i thought the flowers were nice but like i said i did pay for them.... if you want you can bring some fake flowers and they will put them on for you and then just remove it when its being cut.... i actually think you can make it prettier with fake flowers because mine looked nice but the flowers werent anything extra special. If i did it again I would bring my own to be placed on it.

I still have not received my slide show because they are waiting for me to send the song I want on an MP3 and i have no idea how to do this LOL.... i was thinking of putting a fast up beat song or using my wedding song in the backround but i dont understand why i cant just tell them the name of the song and they do it.... also i didnt realize the photos all just come on a cd.. im a little dissapointed because its not cheap and to still have to go and get the pictures done is a little crazy. maybe an outside photographer is not a terrible idea even though adventure does great work.

Hey Girls, I paid for my bridesmaids hair to be done and they DID NOT let me use the 15% discount. They said it only applied to me, but my hair and make up was already included so I actually didnt use it all. we did the massages that were free also... so i never actually used my 15% discount. Come to think of it... i ended up getting fake eye lashed put on ( $15 and looked extremely natural- highly recommend ) and i dont think they used my 15% discount! I also paid $6 for a lip gloss because after she did my make up i felt like my lip stick would be off by the time of the wedding so she let me purchase it since I liked it.. but yes be careful becasue they do know how to charge you for everything. I paid 50$ for the microphone during my ceremony because i had a saxaphone player so i didnt have or need the sound system. but that really annoyed me also... $50 for a microphone so my guests could hear the ceremony... seems like that should be included.

this is gorgeous. -
sharing some photos with all of you the light up dance floor really does wonders and i strongly suggest it. even though my table runners were lavendar and ended up being too light against the white and the same for the chair bows... it doesnt really matter. i basically had a white set up with a light up dance floor and i think it was really cool

Hey ladies, So I have a question..... i was emailed a link to my photos and told to pick 180 i think. now once i pick them what happens exactly, do i get regular sized prints of them or do i get them blown up? is that all an extra charge? This has me totally confused because they didnt say to pick which ones i want made bigger etc.... of course i want some to be larger than others to be hung up and so forth... they also told me to mark the 150 i want in the album. i was thinking of getting an extra small sized photo book for my parents... did anyone do this and know the extra charge? im wondering if i should do it myself or have them do it? just confused about this whole aspect.... ALSO any suggestions for good songs for the slide show? they just asked me to send them my song I want and im at work and really want my slideshow lol so im trying to think of what to use

Savs, thats cool that u used the 30 minute rehearsal dinner coversage for the wedding day. i had an outside videographer ( mike cantarell ) and they told me i had to use the video coverage from them, but not on the wedding day. So the day before we all met at the lobby bar for "welcome cocktails" and someone from their video service came and recorded. he was just standing there with the camera and i felt like it was going to be silly so i asked him to take my guests aside and have them wish us well on camera. he is mailing it this week i cant wait to see it

Hey Lori, I did whatever package comes right before the one with the TTD.. i believe it was 3. my fiance is not a wake up early and take pictures in the water in his suit kinda guy LOL i wanted the pics but looking back now at everyones pictures i have a lot of fun pictures on the beach and at the pool with my guests that i guess it doesnt even matter. i am waiting on my slide show... so package 3 does come with the slideshow unless somehow i am wrong and i actually did package 4. my pictures are great i had Santiago and he sent me about 350 and told me to choose 180 i believe. i am going to write a full review but my advice is to have some ideas of the pictures u want to take. i say this because i love my pictures but afterwards i started to think of other cool pictures we could have taken that would have made me feel better about not doing the TTD. like i honestly would have sat in the sand... etc even on my wedding day but he didnt suggest it and i didnt think of it at the time. i also wanted a picture on the swings at the swing bar but when caught up in the moment i forget to say it and he didnt mention it.. just a few other shots i sorta wish i took and if i had to do it again i woulda had a list of pictures i really wanted and brought it because u tend to forget when ur so excited and having fun lol. also my ceremony started at 4:30 and my cocktail hour didnt start until 5:30 so i had time to take pics and still get to most of my cocktail hour. looking back i would have actually taken even more pictures and then went to the cocktail hr but we didnt want to miss it and we wanted pictures there as the photographer didnt take too many with our bridal party on the beach... i say just have an idea of what u want and dont just assume u'll remember on that day lol thats my advice

If you want to see pics before I get a chance u can request me on Facebook at [email protected]... I also want to say that my color scheme was supposed to be pink and purple but looking back nothing really had pink in it and I regret using lavender for my table runners because they basically weren't noticeable at all on the white table cloth.. I should have asked what it would look like first cause it was basically a waste.. I wish Lorena woulda advised me on how light they were. Does anyone know how long the pics take to come? We did package 3 and I'm not sure how long till I get to see some pics
