Any 2011 brides?!!

[Treenbean2011]

I am so upset!! My wedding date is not available at our selected resort. We tried several times over the past year to reserve the date and were always told that we would have to wait until at least a year before the event. I tried one last time to book thinking that i would again be told to wait. Now the day is completely full. To make matters worse there are no days close to this date available. ARGH!!!

 

Hopefully, this will be the first and last mishap.

February 2011 here! FI and I are hoping for the 26th, but we the judge won't confirm availability until April. My dress has been ordered, and my save the dates that say Punta Cana, Dominican Republic February 2011 have been mailed (the local ones have already been received, the overseas will take a bit longer). I'm so excited!!

Hi Ladies,

I need your help. I am very stressed about how to pick the resort without knowing what the price will be for our guests. Prices are just starting to come out and I've gotten two quotes that are too high but have been told by the TA that prices will drop down after the summer. Do I just book the resort now and hope that prices come down then and send to my guests when we lock in a good price? I don't want to lose out on the resort that I want. Right now I'm leaning towards Grand Palladium Bavaro. We are getting married the week of March 12, 2011.

How did everyone pick their resort without knowing what the guests will pay?

ashley - the bridesmaid dress is really cute I like it

 

sonyaR - I just estimated based on this years price and figured it might be a few hundred more. I secured the date and time with the resort and will wait until the packages come out from the tour operators to start working on group rates. I plan on booking aprox 6-7 months before the date.

I'm a happy 2011 bride I know I may be way ahead of the ball game, but my last semester of school (Spring 2011) will be hell-on-earth so I figured it really all needs to be planned by this December!

Hi Ladies,

 

I am also a happy 2011 bride. I can't decide between Jamaica and Mexico. I'm currently looking at both and this site has been a great help. I want to get married in June. Hopefully I'm planning well enough in advance that I can get the date I want.
