By the way- i posted a couple of other threads but they're being held for "moderation" because I'm new. I need ideas for LIGHTWEIGHT deocroations on a plane... it's a lot harder than I thought! Yes, we plan on doing welcome packages... but we also have wedding party gifts we'll be giving out. What kinds of things are you guys bringing for welcome packages? We really want to do Bubba Kegs, but we don't know if there will be enough room in our suitcase for everything. I also wanted to have a little "print off" of everything going on...not so much an itinerary- just something people can reference to and know what time everything is, and where! (rehearsal dinner, wedding, appointments, etc)

How exciting!! What time are you getting married on the 26th? Is it on the beach? It's coming up soon! You must be going down there for 2-3 weeks since you're leaving next week already. That will be so nice! What other decorations are you bringing besides placecards? I've seen the cutest ideas online for DIY crafts, but I don't know if I'll have room in my suitcase. Do you know how much decoration Barcelo provides? From what I can tell, it's just centerpieces.

Thanks for the advice Yes, I agree- placecards are a must. What other sorts of decorations did you bring down? I have a lot of ideas- but I don't want my suitcase to be overloaded! Did you bring any lightweight items that helped the decoration process? I am not sure how much decorations are provided except centerpieces that I pick out.

Hello!! I'm so excited about this website!! I wish I would've known it was here sooner. We're getting married at the Barcelo Palace on 4-28-12. It's coming up so soon but I feel like there's so much left to do! Does anyone have any suggestions about details they didn't think to do before the wedding? I am so nervous I'm forgetting something! We have a guest list of 29 confirmed right now. 6 are staying at the Palace, 2 are staying at Colonial, about 16 are staying at the Beach, and the rest are staying at a timeshare down the road. We're not having a "formal" cocktail hour either- I think it's kind of pointless since we're at an all-inclusive resort.. however since our wedding is at the Palace, does anyone know if the Beach or Colonial guests will be able to have drinks at Carey bar? We went with the Mint Breeze package, so we are going to need to pick and choose our extras since it doesn't come with as many extras as some of the other packages. Are there extras anyone thinks just wasn't worth it in the end? Or any extras anyone thinks was totally worth every penny? For the photography we're going with their Kodak photographer on site- we didn't want to pay the $500 to have an outside photographer. I've heard good things about them however! Did anyone (or does anyone plan to) bring any extra decorations or place cards down? My fiance suggested everyone choosing their own seats- so we're in disagreement! I think it's nice to have assigned seating, and less chaotic. Any other suggestions or last minute suggestions anyone has?! I'll take any advice Thanks!
