Married or going to be married at Grand Palladium Punta Cana?

[Nonnie]

there are lots of resort photographers wandering around trying to sell their services, so finding one to do your TTD is as easy as laying on the beach, literally, they find you

[sungoddess_08]

Are they reliable though? I just would be worried about giving some random person on the beach cash and hoping they come back with the pictures.

When are you leaving to go to the other resort?

Because I am also doing TTD and Arnaud is coming over the very next day of my wedding to do them.. and I don't have to pay another pass. Maybe you can consider this if your not leaving the very next day.

 

Congrates on getting your date confirmed!!!! yaaaaaaaaaaah :)

We're leavint he next day!! But I guess depending on what time my guests leave - and when we have to check out by, we could always extend checkout maybe!!

[caribbeanLover]

Check out is 11am.. but you can stay longer.. I am sure Arnaud can make some sort of arrangment for you. Just e-mail him I am sure he'll work something out for you!

Great Advice - thanks Tracey.

 

Unrelated -- I saw a post earlier about someone saying Dreams does not have wristbands which are better for pictures. I know GPPC does, but do they interfere with the pictures much? The whole reason for going away was to NOT stress, lol...but I'm just curious.

[caribbeanLover]

your allowed to take the wristband off for your wedding, so can all your guest. Make this a point in your meeting with Carolina when you get there.

 

Nonnie, thanks so much I wont worry about dinner music either

Which restaurant did you use again? I ask to book La Uva (which means grapes btw.. just learned that LOL!!) I am not sure it'll happen.. we will see I guess... trying not to stress about these things.

Carolina emailed me back, and catholic weddings ARE LEGAL -

 

"Thanks for your email, regarding your questions, no we will not have a judge there, but you will receive your marriage certificate back (after 6 or 8 weeks) legalized, and then your marriage will be legally in the US.

Regards from DR"

 

Side note: Is anyone doing a TTD / having arnaud come on Friday, April 16th? I thought cherrybomb was also using HDC, and personally, I don't think we both should have to pay for them to be there if it's the same block of time!

 

I was worried about the wristbands too, glad to hear that's taken care of!

Regarding Wrist Bands

 

This is what Carolina told me:

 

The Bride and the Groom can remove their wristbands for the day of the wedding. You ust keep it, and then exchange it at the deck for a new one

 

If your guests remove their bands, it is a $35 fee to replace them

 

My hubby forgot to remove his band, but it was black (Air Transat Imperial club) and did not look odd. My mom, MOH, etc bought some thick shell bracelets to cover the bands

like this: http://www.youpearl.com/images/shb/s...t-shb103_m.jpg

that worked well, in fact if you know what your female guests are wearing in terms of colour (and you find a good deal) something like that would be a good OOt bag item. Otherwise maybe consider getting one for your bridesmaids
