Moon Palace 2011 Brides

[Bride KSmith]

Okay Ladies, they worked out the room situation.They moved us to a room in the same bldg that has a king size bed. It also has an ocean view (very rare in the Grand Section). The room is perfect. I am so happy. They did mess up our room block. Our guest are spread all over each section but it isnt that big of a deal (none of our guest really care about stuff like that).

 

We had our welcome dinner today. Afterwards we went to the fire show and nightcapped at the disco! We had a great time and I am so exhausted. I am glad my wedding is not until 6pm tomorrow.

 

Tomorrow is the big day. I would have never made it without you guys. This time tomorrow I will no longer be Bride KSmith, I will be Bride KDavis!!

My invites are going out today ladies!!

I hope that I am not too late.  We are sending out 80+ invites and I'm already getting many verbal "we don't have the money" excuses.  

Looks like it might just be my "immediate family" my FIs family won't fly.

 

UGH

I'm getting nervous now!!

 

We wanted a beautiful beach wedding and to avoid all of the family drama we were having here BUT we wanted SOME people to come!!!

Oh my gosh Mocha you look absolutely gorgeous!  I saw the details on this site before you left and I was very impressed by your planning.  It looks like from the pictures it all came out well for you.  Congratulations!!  So beautiful:)

 

I'm just hoping that mine comes out as well as yours.  Love the Just Married umbrella just not sure if I could pull it off quite like you.  Unfortunately I have waited until the last minute to do a lot of my planning and now I'm worried.  I get married on August 13th and I still haven't picked out my colors.  I really didn't think it would be that difficult and now I'm having problems getting in touch with Kalena, my wedding coordinator.  I've heard others complain about the same on this forum so I'm trying not to worry. I dont' even know what sites are available now for the ceremony or the reception at this point.  I'm getting daily responses from my Miami coordinator, Michelle Farinas, but still no response from Kalena.  I'm trying not to be too frustrated but a lot is riding on whether its a beach or gazebo ceremony, particularly the colors I will choose, how I will have my dress hemmed and whether I will be wearing high heels or not.

I was thinking the same thing, because we really don't have that many guests, so we will probably only have one long table as well.   Plus I feel it makes for a more intimate wedding reception which is the reason why we chose a destination wedding in the first place.  We're not sure yet, but we probably won't go the traditional route by having placecards.

Terpgurl I have Kalena as well but I haven't heard from her at all yet and I am very concerned.  Any suggestions?

Overall she got everything booked that I wanted pretty early on and even called me once to go over the details and send me a follow-up email. I hadn't heard from her since mid April but she emailed me last night and pretty much she is aware of my updates and we're all set to meet next Wednesday:-)

Yayyy KDavis-soon-to-be!!  So excited for you!!

When you have your downtime, I have a quesiton for you (or anyone else)... does the resort have a fire show on Thursday night?!??? That's what it sounds like from your post... we're having a welcome beach party on Thursday night before my wedding, and I was going to pay for the fire show to come to our event... but if the resort already has one, I might not need to!

 

Any ideas?

Hi Wedbliss,

We're getting married in August also!

Don't worry.  I don't even have a wedding coordinator yet!

I still don't know the locations or ANYTHING.

 

How many guests are you having?  When did you send out your invites?
