How long is that iPod set up for?  Why are they charging for the ceremony when there is a system you can use?  I know you can use your comp nights to pay for approved vendors if that helps!

Yup.... same boat. Lucky us... we fly out on Thursday (the day Hurricane Rina is scheduled to hit). Wedding planned for 11.1.11.... We're calling our group to start discussions on what to do. As we only have a small group going, we want it to be a group decision. It's not easy to reschedule everything, days off work... airfare... photographer... Geeze, I forgot about throwing the photog into the mix. We hired a very nice and professional photographer, hopefully he'll work with us if things have to change. 

 

Seriously praying for everyone right now - brides, locals... the whole 9.

Thanks to hurricane Rina the past couple of days have been quite stressful having to change all travel arrangements that will work for the entire group. We were supposed to leave today for our wedding on Saturday. Now we are scheduled to fly in Friday and Saturday for our wedding we rescheduled to Sunday. What a mess, but we are trying to stay positive.

It did count for us. I have DJ and photograpehr booked for only one night each and both those rooms were counted towards our group booking and incentive. Our wedding is still 3 weeks away but I already received 7 complimentary nights and free room upgrade (we have exactly 75 nights booked)

How stressful! Yes keep a postitive additude! I keep telling myself if things don't go as planned I will still be in Mexico, relaxing at the beach with a drink in my hand and married to the man I love. It keeps me going when I start to stress about it all.

Good Luck, you will have a great story to tell later
