OK Ladies,

 

So I got the email from my TA that Monday is my 90 day mark (biting nails) and if I do not want to have to pay the 1 night penalty fee I can release 30% of my rooms 5 rooms.  Now I reserved 20 and sent out my save the dates back in Feb, and my invitations end of May.  So why do I feel guilty about releasing these rooms.  My family had plenty of time to put their deposit down which was only $100.00.

 

Just wanted to vent.

Wow penalty fee that stinks. I had the same issue but My TA didn't give me the option of keeping the block of rooms for a fee but I'm also a Mexico bride so maybe they do things different. I asked my TA if she could hold the rooms until the end of the week, which she agreed to and then my FI and I sent out mass text messages and emails telling people if the plan on coming they need to book or else I sent out 150 invites at the end of April w a June 3rd RSVP date and I only got half of my rsvps bak so I figured the rest of the people were no's and we called all the "probablies". Maybe your TA can stall just a few days to give you time to figure something out.

We sent out a massive email and text message as well.  My main family has already booked their rooms, the rest are just friends and FI people.  So we will see.

 

Are you guys doing an OOT bag? If so are you going to give it to them at the resort or mail it to them in advance?

[hdinsmor]

I'm doing an OOT bag and I will give it to them at the resort.  But, I am SOOO NOT the creative type!!  I need help coming up with cute ways to do the welcome bag.  Suggestions?? 

[caboose]

We are giving our OOT bags out at the resort as well. In my head I know what I want to put in them but it's about time to start making some decisions and ordering things. Starting with Bags. LOL
