Has anyone used Zentropia Spa for their hair and make-up?? If so, what is your review?

I was told it is $10 per person without chairs.

What did they charge you for the cocktail reception and dinner reception? How did the evening go?

Is it free for meals even if you do a private reception in La Laguna???

Thank you so much for the info. Have you made any other decisions? We get married in 41 days!

Yes. I bought it. It came in a the beginning of July. I love it! It fits perfect, no spanx needed (I'm a size 12). Great built in bra and sippers up the back with the little button thingys.

What is the heal size?

Do you still have these?

Here is my dress! We get married on October 3, 2012 at The Grand Palladium. I am trying to decide if I will wear a veil for the ceremony. If I do it will definitely be mantilla (long).

Do you by chance hava a picture of what yours acually looked like? What color did you order?

Do you by chance have a picture of what the maracas looked like??

Were you able to go into town and find them cheap?? If so, do you remember how much they were and what they looked like?

Thank you Caterina! You have made me so happy to hear your review!

Caterina, My guest list is dwindling down some. We were at 43 people now we are at 38. I am sure a few more will back out. Is the food covered at La Laguna if you have less than 40 people? I read that on someone else's post. I am also using Graciela & DJ Bob.

Ladies, Has anyone decided where in the resort you will have the following events: Welcome Party? Rehearsal Dinner? Cocktail Hour Between Ceremony & Reception?

So nice that you are going ahead of time. Very envious! I hope you have a wonderful time and please share your thoughts when you return! Safe travels.

Darya- At this point I only have 3 bridesmaids and groomsmen, so it is a little more affordable. Trust me sometimes, I wish I had kept my mouth shut!! LOL. I love the cooler bag idea! Very cute! i am not sure if we are doing OOT Bags yet. I just can see them adding up like crazy. We are already over budget- NICE!! I really wanted to get the boarding pass invites made by one of those awesome companies, but they would have been around $800. I just couldn't see it. We ordered our boarding pass invite from weddingpaperdivas.com. Now I am just trying to figure out whether or not I will make the sleeve for them, which would be VERY cute. I think I am going to do my own hair since it is short. The girls actually requested to do their own, which is very nice. I still need to pick the photographer, decorations, favors, and who knows what else. I am trying to wrap all this up by May 15th, so I can enjoy the summer. We live at the beach plus I am a realtor and things are getting very busy. I just want to be able to kick back relax and work. I love reading ideas. Keep in touch!

Would you mind sending me pricing he sent you?

I have Graciela and she is AWESOME!!

Darya & Samantha, I have finalized a ton of details recently. We will stay for 9 days and guests arrive on our 3rd day. This will give us time to unwind and get the wedding stuff done before the guests arrive. We changed our ceremony location from the gazebo to the church at 4pm, cocktail hours at nearby bar (tbd) while we do photos and reception at La Laguna from 7-11. We are doing the cocktail reception which is $14 per person for 2 hours and then $5 extra per person for each additional up to 4 hours total. We are doing the 4 hours at $24/person. We got to pick 12 hourderves. I am still doing tables. Deciding on centerpieces still. I am deciding on decor now. I think I may incorporate color by the hanging paper lanterns and string lights. We hired DJ Bob as he was only $575 for 4 hours! We spoke with him on the phone and he seems awesome. I am deciding on a photographer now. I just received pricing from just about every photographer known to man there. So if you need any pricing info just holler and i will email it to you. Are you using hair and makeup services at the resort? Bringing in someone or scratching it? Is the disco every night? Just in case we extend our party. Are you doing anything really cool during your reception? Do you know if sky lanterns are allowed? Sparklers? What are you doing for favors? I was thinking maracas, but it seems like everyone does. Are you giving OOT bags? We are buying the girls dresses and the groomsmen suits, so we are beginning to go over budget soon. I would love to hear all your ideas if you want to share! I hope all is going smooth!

Thank you! I will definitely double check. Do you have any pictures you can share of your wedding or reception?

Does anyone know where to purchase the boarding pass invitation sleeves? I am looking but not finding them.
