Thanks! That's what we are trying to coordinate because we are in TX, but all our family is in IL. Did you go with a travel agent in your town or a big chain like Apple?

I need help! I am getting married at DRC January 25, 2014. 

 

I had a lot of contact with Claudia when I first reserved the date but have not heard from her in two months. I'm getting really worried that I won't get everything done. All the posts are great but I've been unable to find some answers. I'd really appreciate any insight to these questions:

 

- My reception is at Oceana, what decorations do I need to have? I'd like to bring as much as I can but I have no idea what the restaurant looks like with no decorations.

- My cocktail hour is at the Jacuzzi, we have 45 guests and it looks really small, do you think it will be okay?

- My rehearsal Cocktail Hour is on the beach, any idea what decorations I should plan on for that?

- My friend is coming as my photographer so we did not purchase an extra package but we did get the Dreams Ultimate package that comes with photo and video. Did anyone use just the video that comes with the package? How did that turn out? Does anyone have contact for a videographer and how expensive is that?

- I haven't received any planning documents from Claudia except the Budget Planner, is there anyone else you'd suggest to contact? 

 

Any advice would be great! Thank you!

This is the best site I've found for linens as well, but I'm scared of what the duty will be since the order will be coming from the states. Do you remember roughly how much duty you were charged? Thanks!

Hey Ladies, This is probably a dumb question but when the technician was playing your cd or ipod before the ceremony, how did they transition from song to song. The song for my bridesmaid is not going to be close to over by the time I'd be wanting my down the aisle song to start, so do they just do an abrupt stop of the first song and start playing the other, or is there some way to fade between? Just not sure how this works!
