the long distance fees for the 10 minutes you talk to her, is totally worth your sanity! trust me!

you have way more planned than I do! I'm waiting to see how many of my bridesmaids get pregnant between now and then before we go shopping and I pick one of them to be my maid of honour

I called and we got the day!!! YAY YAY YAY i was so excited Tameica prolly thinks i'm nuts haha.

So glad I called. She said she tried to send the confirmation e-mail the day before and it crashed her computer? I hope that's not a sign ! But I got the e-mail now so it's all good.

I think I have too much planned. She said they contact you a MONTH before to start planning details? My wedding isn't for 11 months I can't wait 10 months to plan stuff i'll go nuts. Do they really not contact you until then? I guess I still have to find a dress and i'm also trying to decide if I want 2 or 4 bridesmaids. My FI is only having 2 groomsmen but i'm having a hard time choosing only 2!

Congratulations!!! Thats so awesome you got your day!!!!

I am sad to say we are not able to get our private reception or a have a separate area on the patio of @ UncleTony's ...We will do a cocktail party after with a band... I am a bit bummed and sad that we won"t have the reception we expected... boo

I saw that breeze 616 had 4 bridesmaid and her hubby had 2 groomsmen...the pictures looked awesome and very balanced! I am sure the guys didn't mind either LOL!!

I send Temeica emails all the time and she prob thinks i am a bridezilla LOL .... but if you have a Q you will likely find the answers on here!!

aw that sucks you don't get a private reception! Where can you have the private cocktail party, and are you still going to cut the cake and give speeches during that time? A cocktail party will be fun too!

Do you know if we can stay at the suites even though our wedding is at the beach? I asked Tameica in my e-mail when i sent my date request but she didn't answer me.

Vaneska · February 21, 2011

hmmm not sure... i know people staying at the Beach have to pay extra to visit the Suites or Grand property's.... i was under the assumption you are to host the wedding where you stay?

We are going to spend the last 4 nights at the Grand.... its too expensive for our guests but at least it will allow us to get a mini honeymoon try asking on the iberostar rose hall forum... i haven't heard of anyone asking this prior.....

let me know what you find out

i heard the location is the Bob Marley terrace...its sup to be the most private:) we are going to do the cake, speeches , first dance there:) should be fun with a band

only now i have to try and figure out what to do for decoration there LOL

Lizk23 · February 21, 2011

Thanks, i'll ask on that thread too. We're going to Couples Swept Away in Negril for our honeymoon! It'll be nice to honeymoon at the Grand cause it's adults only, it looks sooooo nice.

Bob Marley terrace sounds cool! I like the idea of the cocktail party after dinner I think it will be just as fun and special as if you rented out a restaurant. You'll have to let me know how it is and take lots of pics because I might end up doing the same type thing! More to decorate yikes I don't know how i'm going to get all this stuff to Jamaica haha

LizK23,

So happy you called and got your date! Don't worry, my email crashed when she tried to send me all of the contract and booking stuff too. I'm not going to worry about bridesmaids until about 6 months before. I mean, there are potential pregnancies in my bridal party, and that might leave me with only 2 of 4 girls!

Lizk23 · February 22, 2011

Yes i'm so glad too thanks for the advice. I have a potential for pregnancy in my bridal party too, and I have to wait to see who's all coming for sure. One of my 2 sister's has baby twins and her husband is a vice principal at a high school here and a work-aholic so they might not be coming. But if they are coming, I feel obligated to make her one of my bridesmaids. I asked my best friend already accidently because I was showing her the bridesmaid dresses I liked and just could not keep it a secret lol oops. I'll probably wait until people have booked the trip to ask anyone else though. I have to wait another month for flight prices to come out for next January!

It's nice that destination weddings are so much less work (at least it seems that way to me), so we don't have to rely on our bridesmaids to help plan all the small details.
