I chose Clayton after reviewing the other photographers work. He seemed like the best fit for us.

I am so glad to hear that everything went smoothly. I am also using Clayton from SunGold photography. How was he to work with? You were a beautiful bride and it looks like you had a blast. Congratulations to you and your new hubby!!!!

I will let you know what the prices are looking like. So far the bouquet that I like which I saw on Floral Fantasy's website is $85. We have decided to get married next door at the Seawind Beach Club which is a part of Secrets. I did not want to be in the sand (go figure and I want a destination wedding) and I am expecting 30-40 guest so I figured the ball room would look gigantic with a small amount of people. Seawind recommends that we use Jans flowers but if we decide not to there is a $100 vendor fee.

Yes I received a quote from them it was pretty pricy. I also have a partial quote from Floral Fantasy who appear to be a little more reasonable. I am going to have fresh flowers I just have to scale back to make it more affordable.

Those will look amazing and that is such a great idea. My colors are red, turquoise and a hint of hot pink however I wont have any turquoise in my bouquet instead it will be tied with a turquoise satin ribbon. I am still deciding what flowers to use. I am thinking of using ginger blossom along with some other tropical flowers. Are you getting your flowers from the resort or are you using Tai Flora or Floral Fantasy?

I love your colors. Are you using the same flowers for your centerpieces?

How exciting!!!! I wish you and the your fiance the best of luck. Can't wait to see the pictures.

Yes I did get a quote from the Seawind. They want you to pay a venue fee which is negotiable. Then you have a choice of menus which vary in price from $40pp-$80pp. If you would like pm me and I will send you the information that I received. The way I see it I am still sending about the same amount of money and it gives us more flexibility as to what we will and will not use. I will also try to post some pics in a few.

I am having the same issue deciding where I want to have the ceremony and reception. The funny thing is even though we will be in the Caribbean I do not want to be in the sand. Go figure!!! My wedding planner has been in touch with the WC on several occasions trying to figure out some alternatives but of course they are not being that helpful as the wedding is not until August. However my wedding planner has reached out to the Seawind Beach Club which is part of Secrets and inquired about pricing. At this point I am leaning toward using that location. This way I am not obligated to use their package and I can tailor things to what I want. I love that its not on the beach nor a conference room. Oh yeah I think that the beach area can hold up to 70 people and I can imagine what you may be feeling with the extra number of people.

I am using a wedding coordinator who is absolutely amazing. She truly has your best interest at heart and will go the extra mile to make sure you get what you want. You should check out her website it is http://destinationweddingstore.wordpress.com/

I am so excited for you. You must keep us posted and let us know how it is working with the WC. It is so hard to plan certain things when you have to wait for that two month window.

Everything looked absolutely beautiful. Congrats and thanks for sharing.

I believe that you need to get a certified copy from the vital statistics department because from the research I have done birth certificates can not be certified in any state. If I find out anything else I will post.

You look stunning in your dress. Congrats.

Thank your for sharing. I have been thinking about attempting to try to make pomanders myself. Maybe I will give it a try.
