December 2011 Brides

[morgan7]

my planning has been going pretty good. My travel mugs just came in from oriential trading. I just have to design the inserts to go in them and get them all together. My luggage tags also came in so i just need to design bussiness cards to go into them. lol wow i have alot to do. both the luggage tags and the mugs are going into a pre-trip bag that we are going to hand out to everyone who is going. (so far we habe 22 people booked!!) we figured that handing out the bags before we go will save us from having to take all of the stuff down with us. also in the bags will be a pre-trip brouchure on jamaica, the wedding timeline and what to pack (all that jazz). ok so i have alot to do still. (and i havent started anything for our AHR, all we know is we want to host a brunch in january)

 

so what i have done so far:

-all invitations sent out and already getting rsvps back

-contacted wedding co-ordinator (trying to work out a price for bonfire reception)

-booked boudoir for october 13th (i have most of my outfits and acessories)

-got my wedding dress and have gone for one fitting

Well, I can update you ladies on what I have left to do...

 

-Im getting back most of my RSVP's. I gave everyone a deadline of October 15th.

-my first dress fitting is on Friday!! I haven't had the dress on since I bought it in January!

-I need to figure out favours ?  (Im not doing OOT bags, too many to do!)

-I'm sure we need to courier or fed ex our birth certificates to them....

-finalize flowers!

 

Im starting to get excited about it all!! It's coming so fast!

Marlena, we had a 60 day deadline for our birth certificates, so I would definitely look into that, I guess it depends where u r getting married too ...

they have not mentioned anything to me about birth certificates...... should i ask them?

[kat2012]

Wow, that is weird!!!

We had to send our birth certificates 60 days prior or we would get 150$ fine.

For canadian some resorts ask for long version of birth certificates, ours did not.

Here is our document requirement. I am sure you would have something similar since you are getting married in Jamaica too.
 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I know it is for Sandals, but you would have same requirements. So I would contact your WD right away. Good Luck!

I had a 10 week deadline for birth certificates.  So you should definitely check on that !

I just emailed the coordinator, and she said they only need documents 4 weeks in advance. So luckily I have time! I do have the long form birth certificates already, we just have to get to Fed Ex and ship them.

That's good news

So I'm still debating on the whole BD shoot thing. I KNOW my fiance would love it, but it just makes me nervous!! Around here the two hour shoot and a 20 page "little black book" is $200, which is not bad, and I know I should just go for it.... 

 

On another note, I got a bunch of wedding related decor, etc, last weekend. Time to get down to business! I'm making my guestbook as well as a bunch of my other paper related stuff currently. I need to get in to get my dress altered yet, as well as order my fiance's suit. Those top my list of to-do's right now. I also got my flower ordered finalized last week. Whew!
