Lol She actually offered it to us bc I emailed her asking about a fully private reception

Ok well thats a little better! I have decided that I am going to wait a little longer before I start with all of that I just am going to focus on getting my invitations done and sent and then start to worry about all that!!!

 

But the pictures on facebook all looked so nice! Are you ladies bringing down decorations and other stuff?? I don't know what to do there!

[jolene028]

Ladies,

 

How is everything coming along?? Any one have Save the Dates or invitations done yet?? I am almost done mine and I will make sure that I share as soon as I finish!

 

I was at a bridal show on Sunday my bridesmaids arent big fans of me not wanting to do all that bridal stuff (biggest reason I am doing a destiantion wedding) so they made me go, nothing applied to me but I got to watch a fun fastion show! Now I know for sure that I am going to have a hard time finding a dress they all look the same!!!

 

Can't wait to hear how the planning is coming along.

Hey!!

 

Honestly i havent done much since my wedding isnt until 2014. But I'm planning on sending out Save the Dates in january and invites in June. What kind of Save the dates are you doing? I cant wait to see them!

 

Omg, I totally understand. There were some bridal shows here the past 3 weeks in Edmonton and I didnt want to go to any because It will make me more confused! I agree that all the dresses look the same!

I am not doing STD I just couldn't wrap my head around sending them and then sending invitations so I am sending just invitations! I ran into a snag though I had pricing from my TA and then she had a death in the family so I am working with a new girl at the same place and she just informed me that the originally lady quoted for November 2012 not 2013 so the pricing has gone up $500 pp I am so mad right now about it, I dont even know what I am going to do, she is looking into different tour companies but I may write an email to head office... that price is not going to work for us and I already have my date confirmed and everything

 Oh wow!! I would be soooo ticked off too! What travel agency did you go with if you dont mind me asking? they should honor the quote they sent to you. Its not your fault that she messed up. If I were you I would talk to someone higher too! Grrrrr

Maritime Travel, and the worst is that I have used them for my last 3 trips and had no issues... I am going to give her until Tuesday to come back with the other quotes and then I will take it higher and see what they will do for me, my guess is that they won't do anything but I guess I can keep my fingers crossed and hope for the best! I have also gone to another travel agent to see what they come back with!!! Just mostly annoying and frustrating because I have already done all this so it feels like I am starting all over again!

Keep us posted. I'll keep my fingers crossed that they will honor the original quote they give you. You should get out Marlin Travel and Geo Travel. They were the most helpful and the fastest get getting back to me when I was getting my quotes.

Thanks, so far I havent heard any good news from her, I promised to let her try to get it resolved before I go off screaming to head office, and I have another request for quote into Romantic Planet, but I will try the two you suggested as well!
