November 2012 Brides?

[shan0487]

I believe you can as long as you let them know beforehand.  I plan on doing that- I'm a Sun Palace bride. 

 

I am unsure of the events though- I haven't asked my WC as I haven't even thought about doing my programs yet!

I am skipping the programs...executive decision as unnecessary. I know, I'm a rebel!

 

We received our confirmation today that we are PAID IN FULL. Let's have a wedding!!!!!!!!

Same executive decision here!

 

BTW Vistaprint is having a great deal on Groupon: $17 for $70 worth - we ordered the thank you cards for the local event we had, as well as 1 part of our favors (we're writing a cute note to describe one of the favors, that's gonna be attached to each favor and used the Vistaprint "business cards" to create it... super cheap idea btw since you get 250 cards for like 10 bucks or so and its under $10 bucks to add a fancier card stock or a series of other customizations).

I have a feeling I'll be doing the same, haha!

 

Tomorrow is 1 month from the big day and I still have so much to do!! Bad idea to buy a house and move in a month and a half before our wedding, lol.

Has anyone at Aventura Spa heard from their on-site coordinator?  I'm waiting to hear from mine and I leave in 17 days - HOLY S!#T!!!!

[AllieH]

I'm getting peppered with final questions from our WC. We still have 3 guests we aren't sure about too.

 

We leave in 9 days...and get married 2 weeks from today. so I 100% agree with your HOLY S!#T comment lol

We've been in contact w/our WC since 2 months before the big day, but it's been a week since her last response and I've already sent follow-up questions, kinda annoying!

 

We also have a few people that are undecided, or undecided about their kids....but if you order extra favors, a few extra plates of food, and hold off on seating arrangements until closer to the day, it should be OK

[shan0487]

Annoying- I don't get how people can be undecided about a trip to Mexico or any other country less than a month before they leave.. I could never do that, lol.

 

I've yet to hear from my on-site coordinator...as long as I have a meeting set up with her before I leave, I am fine.  I'm not going to worry too much.

[AllieH]

you aren't kidding!!!

 

Steve's dad is now apparently going - money issue. Noooo he hasn't had more than a year to save up or anything. he's such an ass!!

 

The other person is a notorious "last minute lady" - a friend of his mother's. apparently has enough money and doesn't worry about planning.

 

We aren't paying for anything extra, we can't get a refund for it. So I haven't paid for their meals and such... and didn't put together bags for them. If they can't be bothered to plan, neither can I.

His own father is bailing last minute?!? That's absurd! I'm sorry!!

 

That's a good mindset- that's how I feel about everyone that isn't coming- I invited you- it was your choice not to come, so too bad so sad!
