  2. hi all- Let me just tell you about my experience. We got married in Jamaica with close friends and family. A month later, we had an at home reception. Very casual, but still costs add up. If I could go back, we never would have had the at home reception. We had all of our close friends and family there with us when we got married. By the time we got back home, we were over all the wedding hoopla and didn't want to even have it, but invitations were sent out before we left for our weddingmoon. The at home reception was a lot of work and stress, which were two of the reasons we wanted a destination wedding in the first place. Plus we didn't need added stress as newlyweds!!!! We had so many people who didnt come to the at home reception because they had already been to the wedding and we had about 20 people who RSVP'd and then never showed up. Also, lots of "friends" and family who were invited to wedding and said they couldn't afford the trip, still never showed up for the AHR. Those people were the main reason we had a second party and they didn't bother to come anyway. This experience has shown me, if anyone truly wants to be at your wedding, they will find a way to make it to your destination. If anything, meet the people who couldn't come to your destination for a nice dinner instead (which is what I wish we had done). We tried our hardest to talk to everyone who came and I was completely exhausted by the end of the night. It made us realize that we made the right decision by doing a destination wedding because we were so happy and relaxed on our actual wedding day. Just my two cents, but unless you absolutely want another party.... save your money and take another honeymoon with your new spouse
  3. 1 silver tray 4 packs of purple water beads 14 raffia fans with purple wrap (slightly variable sizes) 8 square frames (some have glass some don't). Frames fit 3 3 1/2 x3 1/2 (approx) size photos (purchased from another bride) 4 fishing nets 1 package of 12 submersible LED lights (never used by me, purchased from another bride) I used the fishing nets as table runners with the square frames and a bottle of red stripe as my centerpieces. Willing to sell as a group or individually...best offer. Buyer pays shipping PM if you have any questions!
  4. Chrysta- Yes I did make them. I kind of went on craft project overload for my wedding and now I'm trying to clean my house out and officially be done with all the wedding stuff. If you are interested, please pm me and I'll get your address. Thanks!
  5. I made way too many of these wine charms! Used them as gifts in my out of town bags and favors at my at home reception. Have 50 sets packaged in white bags. 5 charms per bag (dolphin, starfish, palm tree, sailboat, seashell) with blue accent beads. $50 plus shipping

  14. @danielleandryan2015 who are you looking to book your catamaran/evening cruise with?
  15. cute! How'd you make them? How long did it take you to make each one?
  16. did anyone do a sunset cruise for their guests? Or did anyone have a dinner cruise as a reception for their guests? We were originally going to do one through our resort, but now we are finding out that we'd have to go in 2 boats, so we are looking at other options. We are debating having our wedding reception dinner on a ship (because it will be just as expensive as a private reception at our resort). But I dont want to book anything if there have been bad experiences. Thanks
  17. Have any recent Jamaica brides or future Jamaica brides used Club MoBay? I'm wondering with the stuff we are bringing down for our OOT bags/wedding/reception if its worth it to pay for this service. Anyone have any experiences with club MoBay or customs down there?
  18. so megan how did you work it out? my wedding is at 3 and dinner isnt' till 6:30.
