Moon Palace 2012 Brides

Essential, I am so sorry! I know how difficult this must be. My thoughts are definitely with the both of you! Much love coming your way! Big hugs!

Hi Ladies, I hope your Thanksgiving holidays were well. I am asking that you pray for my family at this time. My FMIL passed away yesterday morning and my FI is an only child, so this is extremely difficult; especially when we are 5 months away from our wedding. He is handling this as best he can, but I ask that you pray (if you pray) for his strength at this time. Thanks in advance.  ~E

She said oh okay.. but I know you have tons more to give because the count on the printer was ULTRA high.. and she placed a strong emphasis on high.  LOL  Well, I told her that I was pretty much done with big jobs.  She said, well not quite.  So scratching my head, I said do tell.  Well come to find out, she is paying for her two daughters airfare to come to our wedding.  My work mom whose awesome, will have 5 people attending (her 2 daughters, granddaughter, her husband and herself) which equals 2 rooms booked for 4 nights each.. Her grand is one of my flower girls.  So with that she wanted me to make 2 boarding passes for her daughters as this will be wrapped and placed under the tree for them to open.  So, since this is my first project for someone else with one of her daughters being ultra critical.. I was racking my head to come up with a Hello Kitty theme that she loves.. So since we are both Shoe folks, I decided to go that route.  I will post the cover once I complete it.. I have to print print a copy to see what I need to adjust.  But for now, please give me your reviews for the boarding pass.  I will be wrapping/packaging these as well (once I give it my once, twice and several once overs...) 

 

 

 

 

 

I pray that everyone will have a wonderful & Blessed Thanksgiving!

Definitely! I tried one on and thought I had to buy it but then (my first wedding dress shopping experience) I went back a second time and ended up picking a different dress so I am glad I didn't buy the first one I loved!

I am sorry to hear about your grandfather and bridesmaids. I totally relate because my two "best" friends have bailed on me. They said it is way too expensive yet they agreed and assured me they would come the day I got engaged (a year ago)..what have they been doing this whole time? shopping..going out to eat..partying lol. Oh well as long as our FI's are there for us we will have the time of our lives!

Hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving.  Something I'm definitely thankful for this year is all of you on here.  You've helped me SO much during this crazy process. Your support is unbelievable.  Thank you.

 

It's been an interesting time for me during these last few weeks.  You all have been SUPER busy bees sharing incredible things for your special days.  LOVE the DIY projects that were posted!  WELCOME to you newbies!  Hope you find everything you're looking for.

 

I'm still in the process of making our flower arrangements, and I started making my Bachelorette Favor bags.  Hope to post pictures somewhat soon.  Although a monkey wrench was thrown into my plans ---- my Maid of Honor may be bailing on me!!!  I was very upset about this and let her know, and she even said some hurtful things.  She knows that her decision will impact our friendship if she decides not to come:  #1, she accepted this important role in our wedding, #2 I called her up (with everyone else we were wanting in the wedding party) before we started planning a destination wedding to put the idea out there and ask if she'd be willing to go, and she said YES, #3 a few months ago before I sent out the invitations to everyone, when I was freaking out about cost, she assured me that she would definitely be coming, #4 she can definitely afford to go, even with deciding to buy a new car last month. 

 

On top of this, another of my bridesmaids have decided not to come.  So, l'm putting flower arrangements and some other things on hiatus until we know who exactly is coming.  So far, we only have 6 people booked total!!!!  Our deadline is Dec 15.

 

My goal: keep DIYing and focusing on the people who are committed to celebrating with us in Cancun and make it extra special for them and us.  The good news --- if not as many people come, it will save us some money!!

 

I got some info from Zuniga as far as their options and pricing:

 

 

 

 

 

I hope to be back on this forum more regularly now and posting some DIY pics soon!  I've been quite sick for a while, and my Grandpa passed away. It's been a bit hectic around here!  Hopefully it calms down so I can DIY more.

 

Love you all.  xoxo

Sorry about your MOH- I'm sure thats frustrating and hurtful.  Its sad that something so joyous brings out some people's selfishness!

Any girls booked under a palace membership and using the palace resort booking link for guests?  We just changed our reservation to a palace membership and received our new link but now its saying guests have to pay for the entire stay rather than the 2 night deposit.  I never received a new contract and the group contract that I have says a 2 night deposit- I emailed Geraldine and I'm awaiting her response.  I'm just nervous people aren't going to come if they have to pay the entire stay all at once!

Well, today's Michael's stop was successful! Bought the Crop-A-Dial tool (extended arm version) and ended up paying only $6 instead of $40 after my 50% off coupon and return credit were applied!! Now I can punch holes through lots of hard materials, including chip chipboard - which is what the special booklets I make for the OOT bags will be made of! Super psyched!! Also, putting the finishing touches on the bachelorette favors. Can't wait to post pics later! Happy Sunday everyone!

Beatyea, this is exactly what we're doing - guests are booking through my Mom's membership, and they're using the link MP provides. I emailed Geraldine several times about guests needing to pay in full instead of a deposit, and she wouldn't budge for me. I had the same fear as you. I hope your efforts prove more fruitful than mine! Happy to answer any more questions if you have them!
