Whatever you decide for your ceremony, I don't think you'll be disappointed at all. Either are great choices...

Hi Rosean,

I take it you did a site visit? If so, lucky you. I still have to decide on this one, but thanks for the heads up. Everyone seems so happy with the gazebo that maybe I think I'll go with that. Plus, your right I'll still get to take pics at the beach afterwards. What is your big day looking like so far? By the way, I just noticed we're just a few days apart..YAY!!!

I love the fact that the resort is not as large as the high rise properties and it has a secluded feel to it! If you need any help, there are a lot of ladies in this forum with lots of valuable info and insight! Good luck!

Hello Dbell,

Funny, July 19th, was my chosen date too when I was considering getting married in Jersey. Your right about the feel for the resort. I'm not certain yet on many things, but I knew Dreams was for us from the minute we discovered it. Well congrats to you too, Happy Planning!

Yeah, I visited Dreams in August and put my deposit while I was there.

 

So far, I've sent out STDs, bought my dress (still looking for BM dress) and secured a photographer and videographer. I'm now onto finding a DJ and possibly other form of entertainment like fire dancer (if not too expensive).

 

June is still a long way from now so I think I'm moving at an pretty good pace. I'm anticipating the last 4 months prior to the wedding to be the busiest since all the little stuff have to be done then.

 

I'm also slowly collecting stuff for my OOT bags and have tasked one of my BM who works at J&J to purchase items for my OOT bags (this is actually a great help). I've also been looking for invitations, which we plan to send out in late January.

 

How about you? How's it going so far?

Good for you Rosean, it's best to start early. I'm actually in the very beginning stages right now. I'm hoping to get my STD's out by next week, and I'm going on a Bridal expo next week to check out some dresses. I'm kinda going back & forth with invitations. I've also started collecting stuff for my oot bags. I've been lucky with drugstore clearence sections. By the way, I read somewhere that you need to show receipts of everything you have in your luggages, (oot bags), when you go through customs in mexico. I'm wondering does this mean every single little thing?
