Thanks Rebecca! I've been looking for your posted review or pics (we love PICS) from your PPR wedding. Are you going to post any of that? We honeymooned at PPR so I am always anxious to see what other people think about the resort and how their pictures look. Especially since you did the garden wedding!!! POST POST POST!!!!

You should definately try to do a review under Wedding Reviews section because we dont get that many PPR brides on here. so a review would be greatly appreciated. Did the resort photog shoot your wedding? Your pics are great. you look gorgeous.

For those that have gotten married or will be getting married at PPR - Did you/or will you be getting your hair and makeup done at the spa there? How was the experience?

Thanks

Hi Danille,

I will definetly take some time and post it. You have so many great photos- looks beautyful!! We booked a photgrapher from Canada Josh Brown. It's so funny on how stressful the planning is and then you miss the day so much after it has passed. As funny as it sounds, I told my husband that he will come home one day and find me wearing my Vera Wang Veil. It's a matter of time!! LOL

Diane i got my hair done at the spa but did my own makeup. I did a hair trial a few days before the wedding which i would recommend. I brought some pics of what i wanted and showed it to her, definately bring pics. I also wanted to make sure the style would work in my hair, my hair is thick but really fine and doesnt always hold a style like i want it too. The stylist i had was great. i forget her name off hand but i know i put it in my review.

 

You could probably do a makeup trial if you wanted. I never had my makeup done for anything so i just went to a Laura Mercier counter a few months before the wedding and had a trial done there and the girl walked me through how to do everything myself. So i spent the few months before the wedding doing my makeup every weekend to get used to it, i dont wear much makeup normally so i needed practice.

Thanks Danielle - that's a good idea! Did you have to book much in advance for your hair trial and the real thing.. (I think I'm gonna go back to your review!!)

Diane - The WC should be able to book your hair appt for you - and for any BM's that want theirs done as well.

 

I told my WC how many girls were getting their hair done and what time I wanted to get things started and she had it all set up for us.

Hi Ladies!

 

I've been reading this forum all day! And im taking notes. I am getting married 4/30/2011 at PPR. I've already had one hiccup over location and i am trying my best not to turn into Bridezilla. At any rate I really just want some helpful tips about what to expect from the staff. I chose the fantasy package, we still have people making their reservations but to date we have 30 ppl booked. We think we will end up with about 50. Ofcourse I want it to be really nice but i am so super afraid of hidden costs.

 

HELP!!!!!!!!!
