Anyone Else Overwhelmed With Cost?
calgarybride2015 replied to kcole123's topic in Wedding Etiquette, Traditions, to dos
^^ or if she means local to the wedding location you have to consider what your fee will be from the resort from using an external supplier Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Grrr nothing like typing out a long response. Hitting send. And realized you lost cell service. Boo Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -

I said on our website it was an informal beach wedding and a nice pair of shorts and top or sundress was appropriate. I personally don't mind them in anything but speedos lol Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Wedding Dress Prices?
calgarybride2015 replied to gkashmira's topic in Destination Wedding Dresses, Wedding Attire & rings
Mine was $1300 and I spent $500. It's possible Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -
Per another msg above 30 for a destination wedding is not pathetic. I think it's a great number personally and just think... When do you get to spend a week in paradise with 30 of your friends and family. It's going to be fantastic and those who didn't go will look back and regret it. That said, wow, what's with people and the guilt trips. While it's his sister I expected more I just don't understand why people can't just say ' we really can't make it work, we are so sorry' then make you feel like a piece of crap. I know she is family but don't waste another breath on her ok? Hugs. It's her loss and she will regret it. Whoever tells someone they are selfish for having a wedding of their dreams is the selfish one. A married bride should know better.

how are you including your step kids
calgarybride2015 replied to wallabymeisje's topic in Step-family
It's certainly tough with teenagers, especially boys (hehe) My middle sister declined being a BM, which relieved me some to be honest, but I guess they have the right Good luck and let us know what comes of it! -
Shoes! Shoes! Shoes!
calgarybride2015 replied to Lilian84's topic in Destination Wedding Dresses, Wedding Attire & rings
Interesting! I ordered some blingy sandals from Spring, but have considered just getting myself a pair of the sandals my BM's are wearing as they are only $9.99!! hehe! -
@@KAT2015 Picking a resort was super stressful!! Then you move on from that and stress out if people are going to put down their deposits and commit! Sounds like you have a great TA working behind you. I loved Sunwing, wish we could have used them. I have never been to the DR, so unsure of direct flights, but that sucks you have to transfer! Good luck!

@@VegasBride121314 I always said I would marry in Vegas, but alas it's Mexico lol Nonetheless when I was looking at places in Vegas (Paris/Bally's would have probably one), I was noticing A LOT of the chapels said they were 'sold out' for 12-13-14 heheh Seeing your username makes me think of this!

Dw Airplane Games/activities
calgarybride2015 replied to 081114OVCUBA's topic in Destination Wedding Articles
That is what their website says, I read that too.... but my travel agent has assured me on numerous occasions that my dress will get hung if there is a closet or go in the overhead bin and noone will question it whatsoever. We are also using ACV... Calgary to Cancun... we are a little ways out to know about seating arrangements but I was told I got an upgrade to first class. Do you? I think most flight attendants will be helpful even (I HOPE!!) to help make sure you get it in the overhead bin safely. I have kids so get to board first, my BM's have already told me that they will guard the overhead bin like the plague if that is where mine is going. I have already accepted the fact it may wrinkle. Where do you live that it takes 3 transfers to get to Cuba!? -
What's Your Hidden Cost(S) So Far?
calgarybride2015 replied to linaco80's topic in General Wedding Planning Information
I found out because we upgraded to the private location - which in turn includes NOONE for free - that price we are paying for the dinner includes it all (extra chairs, toast, appetizers, etc.) So I feel relieved about that. Had we have stuck for the ala carte that was in the package we would have paid extra for all of it. -
How Hard Is It To Order A Bridesmaid Dress
calgarybride2015 replied to Mrsktobe's topic in Just venting or funnies
We did our RSVP date the same day as our deposits were due because I couldn't decide on another date! lol! We had a few people say 'it's just too early to know forsure but we will keep you posted' which I totally appreciate but some just flat out ignored it. We had ALOT, like almost all, book in the last week -- so should be interesting for you! Honestly at one point I really believed noone was coming! -
Any Other Calgary 2014 Brides?
calgarybride2015 replied to Mrsktobe's topic in Canadian Destination Wedding Group
Mine was $523 after tax Needs some alterations (hem, bustle) but can't complain I saw the info on Facebook - my news source JK! - but I wasn't really sure I would go. I am by no means close to my wedding in September but have bought almost everything so kind of thought 'what's the point?' If we knew eachother we could all go together!!! -
Alright! I read Andrea's email that when we pay for the upgrade and pay for each person to have dinner that includes everything - 'that includes already dinner, toast, appetizer, chairs and everything else' Safe $375 pesos which is about $31 canadian Wifi per week $455 pesos which is about $38 canadian

What's your first dance song?
calgarybride2015 replied to DRbride's topic in Wedding Music & Entertainment
I think my BP will walk to Everything by Michael Buble -
I think you've done a great job... and personally since the bow tie is fairly small even if it is slightly off you won't notice.... We got all our dresses at DB as well, I LOVED the one you have above, but the girls chose a different one. We are doing the bright pink - begonia as they call it - color. Hindsite I wish I would have done a mix of colors but ah well. great colors and choices!
