How were you able to place "links" in your wording on your weddingwire website? For the life of me i cant figure it out. People continue to ask me how to get to certain pages or what the site for our TA is. ( even when the entire link is posted there) it seems easier to just have something for them to clink and get access too. Thank you!!!

I'm starting to actually have this issue now and I haven't even sent out the stds. How does anyone even go about this issue? ... i understand the entire idea of taking a vaca Since people are spending their own money to attend.. so yeah why not bring someone with you. But what if the added guest isn't someone you even know.. why should they be added to your wedding guest count? ... then in the other hand it seems so rude to state hey I don't care who you bring but have that person entertain themselves while u attend my wedding....I'm so torn right now... but really now how close you are to your wedding it shouldn't even be an idea to ask for a plus 1. If he now doesn't want to go cause he can't bring someone then he never really wanted to come to begin with. the invite he was suppose to rsvp to was to a wedding and not a group vacation. But most likely took the time to speak with whomever about it and they both decided to make it a trip for themselves vs. What u invited him for. Atleast it's the way I would take it rsvping super late and adding someone with him.

@@bodabaib I continue to read about that budget planner but haven't received it from David yet. Would you able to share it ? Im thinking of going with the ultimate package myself. I may end up doing things a la carte if it takes down the price. With the package not even including music for the ceremony I can already see how little things will add up.
-
Have any of you ladies decided to go with a package or deciding to do things a la carte? I believe i will use everything to the ultimate package but im not sure if it works out cheaper to do things separate. Im pretty shocked that none of the packages offer music for the ceremony..that is so strange. Anyone have plans to rent the stereo for the time or maybe bring their own in?

@@TinkerSofi we tried to negotiate it and state we wanted an extra day to think it over and look over reviews and share the information with our family and they didn't bite at all. lol when they stated they wouldn't give us another day. we then stated we wanted some extras for the pressure and the issues we just had with AF. They declined that as well.. we waited 48 hours to see if they would turn around on it and my TA called us and told us they declined on us. So that totally back fired on us lol. apparently we arent very good with the negotiating. So they didn't want our business as bad as they attempted to make it seem and Im ok with that. It just wasn't meant for us. I'm really happy things have been working smoothly for you guys and you will have the wedding of your dreams!!! I cant wait to read your review and see your pictures! The entire reason for us to want a destination wedding was to have it on the beach. So its how we got into the hunt. But when we saw the sky deck it changed our entire vision. I was just steered back to our original vision and Im really happy!! I have decided to look into AM resorts. I've been working with dreams and to be honest its been soooooo nice!! My friend is getting married there this sept. and Im going to be a bridesmaid so ill get hands on experience with the place and we have spoken it out with out TA that we will have a playa day, and we will pay for the transportation for our guest for the day to get into town since the location isnt close. Just waiting for confirmation on our date! So far we or better stated I feel less anxious and much more comfortable

Congratulations to everyone!! Fingers crossed waiting for my confirmation for Aug. 2016 wedding!! Im going this sept. for my friends wedding and going to be a bridesmaid . so I will get the full "wedding at dreams experience" I cant wait to start the planning and sharing all out tips and tricks with each other!! !! Have you all decided where you wish to hold your ceremonies already ?

@@acw271011 really stinks that we were given such a bad taste of the "top service" they offer when we both have gotten told things and then back tracked. I am from the US and thats why we decided to go with Azul fives because of the "extras" they were going to offer us but sadly when it came to actually making the contract they lied to us .. grr... but sometimes things aren't meant to be. so I'm taking this as my "sign" to leave it behind and move on. They even attempted to draw us back in and place us in with another Karisma resort but they wanted us to sign the same day or they would take everything away they were offering. With that my FI and I just decided Karisma wasn't who we wanted to move forward with.And we're happy with what we have decided Where are you having your wedding now offsite? If you don't mind me asking. We have started to see if it will be more affordable to do the wedding with the resort or just do it offsite. Ive attempted to contact kool beach club various times and have yet to hear back . But im not aware of many others. So we will see. Thank you for the suggestions!!

We finally made the decision to have our wedding at dreams and after seeing 2 of your pics I became so so sooo much more excited!! I can't wait to read your review!!

@@ashhtayy My TA broke it down for me ... They were going to offer us the wedding set up (950) for free because we were going to book 10 nights and have more than 5 rooms booked for 3-4 nights. and then we were going to pay for the sky deck (1700) When the contract got made up its when my TA noticed they weren't offering us the wedding anymore and the sky deck was now 1800... so just for the 1/2 hour its going to be 2650 without even decor. So that was a complete turn off. They told him they had to change everything and separate themselves from the karisma promos because they were becoming so popular with weddings they were starting to lose more money giving weddings for free to US residents.Plus we were suppose to get unlimited events because i was going to book over 20 rooms and they aren't offering that either. We had it all listed out but since we didn't sign off it all got retracted and we got placed into the new contract set. With them dropping the ball sensatori lowered rates ( by 10 bucks ) and is trying to get us to lock in with them today for unlimited events. If we dont lock in today then by monday they will rise all the prices and not offer us what they stated.Its like push and pull with them.. its either yeah u can have it.. but No u actually cant when u want it. Well we will give u what you want but you have to sign in the next minute or we wont . (can you tell im stressed just blabbing away LOL )

@@ashhtayy Ive looked into sensatori with my TA .. and my fiance and I feel so torn with it. Its not close to anything. Its isolated. They don't offer any suites ( as in sperate living spaces, ) i just feel like we cant get over Azul Fives . But sensatori is up in the air right now. but for sure Karisma is placing a bad taste in our mouths. with all the back and forth . changes and constant rush to either sign or move on.

I need help with suggestions on resorts in playa del carmen area. After Azul Fives dropped the ball with my fiance and I ....we are now back to square 1 on attempting to select a resort ( 4 months now ugh) any suggestions would be great. I just want to have a few options to pass over to my TA and just ask for rates versus the back and forth. Thank you!!!!

@@LisaAnthonyPoppy Im so happy to read your last post and see how talking it out and opening up has helped calm your worries. We all know we aren't perfect but when we can find someone to love us through all our imperfections that's when its worth it all! It's really great you were able to open up with your husband to be and him accept your thoughts openly. That's exactly what is needed, the open communication. This will help you move much further together. Im so excited for you guys and we are all routing for the two of you!! Cant wait to see read about your wedding and see the pictures!!

Kukua Beach Club-Punta Cana?

@@MrandMrsBonitto2016 thank you!! I just requested to get an entire list so i can come up with my own "quote" to see if this would actually be better than having it at the resort. Have you picked a resort for your guest? -
@@MrandMrsBonitto2016 Im still figureing out where to actually have the wedding and was referred to KuKua by my TA. I was looking intojellyfish but it was super pricey.. Im also going to be a 2016 Bride hopefully for Aug. if we can get the date. What other outside locations have you looked at to compare to Kukua?
