Hi I'm Planning on April 2015 haven't got conformation yet just started planning

So far I have a budget of 13K as the "most I could possibly spend number" and since I don't know how many people are going I have one spreadsheet for 50 people and one for 100 people just to make sure. The more people go the less extras ( Flowers, Decor, Etc) I can get. I'm just in the beginning stages of planning yet and working with averages so I'm actually hoping that once I have real numbers to work with it will be less...I tried to over estimate.

Hi Everyone! and HI Tami8424 Congrats to you too.. sorry for my late response....I had a really busy few months and am only now about to get back to the site and start my wedding planning

This is a very Helpful thread!! Now I can start my budget

Jessica1005; jenmheadrick; Gene Martin; CONGRATS!! Gene & Jen your pictures were beautiful! and very helpful! Did you guys bring any of your own decorations? if so how did you get them there? Did you use the resort photographer? or did you hire your own?

Hi Everyone! This is my very first post, I just got engaged on April fools, two weeks ago. I am planning on having our wedding at Grand Palladium Punta Cana which is where we had our first vacation together. I am doing a little research right now as our wedding probably won't be until 2015 ( I need to Save up!). My wedding will probably have somewhere around 50 guests more or less. So far I am finding the Palladium wedding website very confusing, and slim on information. There is no info regarding having cocktail hour, or a reception party with dancing and not much about the dinner itself. I have written an email to the wedding coordinator but I've received no response yet, which is understandable, I imagine she is very busy. Hopefully someone here can give me some inside info. 1. How far in advance should you reserve your date? 2. What is a reasonable budget for 50 people? ( I realise that price/packages will probably increase/change by 2015) 3. I notice most people seem to be doing a symbolic ceremony, why is that? Is that an easier/cheaper way to go? 4. Can you only have a beach party with the Karen Bussen Packages? I have tons of questions but these are my top 4 right now...Thanks in advance!
