Anon - you only choose one colour of sand? Hmmm I didn't know that. I thought we have to bring our own sand?

We were told to pick one color and our excel spreadsheet indicates "Unity Sand Ceremony with pink sand." It seems strange that we would both pour in the same color sand (the whole point is the joining and mixing of two separate sands/people!). Maybe the second color is regular sand -- which better be the case! I asked Tiffany for the details. Anyone else know more?

lol wow I should really get on some of this. My wedding is before yours and I haven't picked anything yet. I would assume that its pink and regular sand. That would make no sense to me to both be pouring the same colour. Let me know what Tiffany says... no point in me sending an email to her too!

Okay; no problem. I will post the reply when I hear back! Have you requested a copy of the ceremony language? If not, you should definitely do that. The sample that we were sent was totally off from what we wanted it to say -- so, we need to go through and re-write it...

Meghan, thank you!!! I go to try in on this Sunday, I'll update it if I end up buying it

I'm doing a legal ceremony.... I didn't think you could change it.

Oh wait, you're talking about the sand ceremony still. I have a script already prepared so I guess I need to give it to Tiffany. Wow I'm just realizing how unorganized I am lol!

I don't have the text they used for my sand ceremony, although I remember it being nice. Here is a pic for you to see, it's two colors of sand. You can bring your own or buy it onsite from the wedding coordinators for $5/color.

 

 

Hope that helps!

Sorry -- I was talking about the actual ceremony (so no worries for you!). I think Tiffany will tell you to just bring the sand ceremony language to your onsite meeting, but not positive.

Katken, thanks for the info! It's weird that Tiffany originally said to choose one color (and didn't include any more info), but maybe she'll include some of these details when she writes back. Did the cost of the ceremony include that pretty vase with your initials? Thanks!

Just heard back from Tiffany...

"For the ceremony, the minister speaks then towards the end of the ceremony, the minister explains what the sand ceremony is and then you both have your own vases with the same colored sand and you take turns filling a separate vase. I will find out what the cost will be for an additional color for the sand."

I will let you know when I hear the cost for an additional color for the sand - though, I think Katken said it is $5.

Happy Saturday everyone. I thought I would share some info that I am trying to laugh about it, though it probably isn't funny. I finally got a long email from Tiffany with some responses to my outstanding quote requests.

 

Bows for chairs---I have to purchase them for the beach ceremony for people to sit for 20 minutes, and then have to purchase another set for the reception 2 hours later. Come on, how hard is it to move 30 bows 150 feet BTW, they are only $4 each.

 

Champagne---Grace told me I could ship my own in. I don't mind mark ups but $150 for a bottle of $40 Vuelve is ridic! Anywho...yesterday Tiffany tells me that Grace wasn't aware that the Mexican postal system is not good and that it would probably end up lost or late, but if I want to take the chance I can!!!! How funny is that! I wasn't aware that Fed-Ex changed its policies and that Mexico has turned into Colombia ala 1979. So, my question to the gang is, has anyone shipped anything to the resort? I'm thinking of sending a "test" empty box down there next month to see what happens.

 

If anyone wants the list of other gazebo related prices, let me know and I will post it.
