Moon Palace 2008 & 2009 Brides - POST HERE!

[Dez921714]

Our OOT bags are going to be our favors. We haven't gotten too into buying anything yet (we don't know how many people are coming yet) but they will probably be pretty elobarte.

I went to Alfred University....so I have friends in Buffalo and Rochester (I'm closer with the Rochester people though and go up there a couple of times a year. We're acutally doing a Keuka Lake wine tour at the end of June )

That wine tour sounds like fun!!

 

I like your favors! Guests will appreciate that!

 

Sorry to ask again, but I can't seem to find Betsy... Do you know if there is another way to search for her? I would like to see the Moon Palace wedding pics because we are going with the photographer at the resort too and I haven't seen any pics yet.

 

Thanks again,

Melissa

I just used the advanced search and looked for threads started by her with "pics" in the thread title

For favors, we got personalized shot glasses that are big enough to hold tea candles, I got some LED candles for them, so we dont have melted wax in them. We will have them on the table as part of our decoration and then the guests can take them to their room and have fake candles and shot glasses. We're also doing personalized napkins, they're blue and will have each guest's name of them as place cards. This way we can get the basic white set-up from the hotel and add our own napkins. (I need to take pictures of the napkins, we just finished them last night and I will post a planning thread with all the pics.) Everything we're doing have a dual purpose to save on the amount of stuff we have to bring. We're also doing palm fans from the Oriental Trading company for the ceremony with our program attached with ribbon.

 

Still haven't been assigned a wedding planner, GGRRRRRRR.

Your favors sound awesome!!

 

Sorry, I don't know your name. I'm Melissa.

 

Have you called to see who your wedding coordinator is?

I called yesterday and they gave me Nancy Aruza's name and e-mail address, so I am waiting to hear back. I hope they get a move on!!

Hello Melissa, my name is Eugenia, but everyone calls me Pookie. I haven't called, I was hoping one would magically get assigned. It has been OK up to this point, I was talking to one of the Florida ladies, but she disappeared and I have not heard from her in over a week (forever in bride time). So now I'm stressing. I think I will call tomorrow, I was actually planning on getting some work done today, for the first time in months.

Thanks for posting my pics! Sorry I was MIA for awhile after the wedding. Anyways don't stress about not getting a WC yet - they usually don't assign you one until 2 weeks before your wedding - and believe me that is perfect timing. Mine was Elisa and she was so awesome. She did a great job - from emailing me pics of the reception locations to coordinating everything for us. You guys will have a wonderful time there!

Nice to meet you Pookie!

Sounds like we should be OK with the wedding planner. Betsy's post made me feel better about it!!

I was telling Dez... I am doing the free civil ceremony and then we are having dinner in one of the restaurants... maybe Los Caporales.

We may get a free cocktail hour before dinner, so that would be cool.

What are you guys doing?

Happy Planning!!!
