Las Caletas Couples ~ POST HERE!!! (**All LC Brides...PLEASE READ 1st post, red text)

[adevnturelovers]

Hi Kya,

 

So I'm still a slight bit disappointed as well but as my FI told me, we don't know maybe the new coordinators will  be even better than kelley, who knows what their background is. Or maybe it's not as extensive as Kelley but I feel pretty confident that Kelley as well as the owners know they need coordinators as good or even better than Kelley. They know we have high expectations and that we talk on forums. Las Caletas has become so popular due to all the rave reviews so they know they need to keep that reputation up.

 

With that said , my FI also has not found his outfit, I know he will probably wait until 3 weeks before wedding if he can ( definitely against my will!!), and he wont let me pick out his outfit with him!!!! he says just like me and my dress he wants it be a surprise!!! can u imagine lol , we also are trying to figure out what groomsmen should wear, (we kind of have an idea of what pants to wear , but cant find the right shirt/guayvera) , and of course he procastinates with telling them what they need to buy .

 

I refuse to stress. So breathe easy , everything will be wonderful i'm sure.

I think my biggest problem was being disappointed not having Kelley after having started with her and hearing such amazing things about her. I am sure the new ladies will be just as awesome and our wedding will be just as amazing too. Thank you again everyone you have really helped calm my nerves and stress!!!! I would be totally lost right now without this forum and all your help!!!!!

Ok so on another topic, has anyone every used a band? I love live singing, but am iffy about hiring one or if a good one is even available to us?

 

Also how much difference is there in the the cost of flowers depending on how many flower arrangements one has? I love flowers so if i could have them everywhere like on the aisle runner, on tables, on chuppa, etc etc i'd love that

Yes I agree on to another topic, does anyone know how much extra it was to have a different color for table linens and/or chair covers? Also what colors are available??? I would really like to get some of this stuff figured out and if I can find out on here rather than bug Kelley with everything else on her plate, that would be great!!!

I'm doing loose flowers along the aisle with the straw mats and that is a couple bags worth ($25 each).  On the chuppah I'm having 2 color flower arrangements on each of the 2 front posts and they are $100 each.  The centerpiece is included in the package and that is used at the ceremony and then moved to the sweetheart table.

Did anyone have a "head" table instead of the sweet heart, my FI really wants a head table not just the two of us??? Any thoughts??? We don't have a huge wedding party but probably 8 of us total...

THEY ARE $1.20 USD PER BOW TO RENT FOR THE CHAIRS

You can do a head table.  Kelley suggests doing tables of 8-10 people.  You may end up having to do a regular table of 8 instead of a "head" table where everyone looks the same direction, depending on how many people are coming to your wedding and space issues, etc.

I am in the very middle of doing all my selections with Kelley so if you have any more questions just ask!

[laurinmarie]

For anyone who used Adventure Weddings Photo that Kelley has, how long did it take you to get your formal photos and video back from the date of the wedding?? We are trying to finalize the date for AHR and would need those done!!

 

Thanks!!
