That's great that you are including them in the ceremony.

They have been included in everything from the theme, to the colors, the destination to the resort; my daughters 1,8,10 picked my dress and vail and the BMs dresses... The have a stamp all over the place.

Aww Jackie, you're getting married on my mommy's birthday!!!! That's why i decided early March lol. I haven't had difficulty in getting quotes...they're just ridiculously sky high for the rooms when I know good and well what the rooms really should cost! It's so annoying, I've enlisted my family in DR's help to get me "dominican" prices on this resort. If they can't do any better, I'm letting people know to wait until like October and just book air/hotel packages on one of the many websites. I thought having a TA would be helpful b/c there's payment plans and stuff but I feel like my guests are going to be cheated.

Ya I managed to get mine for 1475 which is still more than I wanted people to pay but a lot lower than the other quotes I had received. The only problem with early march is that is when march break is for the public schools. Good luck and I hope you get your family to help find lower prices.

But Easter 2014 is in April. It doesn't make sense, schools here in NYC go on break whenever the Easter break is.

Oh in Canada elementary and high schools usually go around the second week in march.

My biggest headache right now are the room quotes I'm getting back from certain TAs. I'm about to just tell everyone to book their packages through bookit.com or cheapcaribbean.com when they can. Seems like too much work! I'm Dominican so I know there's no way that charging over $200 a night for a room in DR during March when Holy Week is in April next year is ok! SMH

 

We are looking at places right and will prob use the link below for help planning because even looking is giving me a headache ha ha:

I will look into this resort too but I might use the website I just posted to help me plan! 

 

Congratulations to you too
