Hello All, Wow! What a wonderful thread! It took me about a week and a half... but I have completed the entire thing from start to finish. With that said, my fiance and I were engaged December 25, 2011 and now planning a destination wedding for May 2013. After much contemplating, St. Lucia seems like the perfect destination... besides cost, bugs and humidity! I hope this official thread picks up for new brides and I will definitely be apart of it myself. Thanks St. Lucia brides, past and present, for all your input. I truly feel knowledgable and like I have many friends who validated and overcame some of our same concerns. Best wishes... and Happy Weddings! <3 <3 <3 <3
