  1. Which now? They are both pretty big, but DPC is bigger and less 'pedestrian friendly' if you want to put it that way. All of the buildings on the left side (as you are looking at the ocean) are accessable only by bridges over the pool area, no walkways at all on that side. Oh, and when they say swim out rooms, they don't actually swim out. There is an offshoot of the pool that goes between 2 buildings but they don't go right to the rooms.

     

    The great thing about OB is that there is a shuttle that goes around the resort in a loop. So after a long day, it's nice to just jump on the trolly and they will take you where you need to get to.

     

    Let me know if you have any questions about either resort!

  2. I am looking to hire Tammy B Photography for sometime in May.

    If you are in or around that area and are interested in photos for either Maternity, child, engagement, family or Boudoir, etc, I'm trying to get enough people together to make it worth a trip for her (as it's about 6 hours from her home).

     

    Please let me know if you are interested!!

     

     


  3. I agree with this 100%.  I found those "you should go!" people rarely booked anyway, so it'll likely be a moot point.

  4. We had 11 people including us!! You know, I was really dissapointed at first, but in the end I wouldn't change it for anything. I was able to spend lots of time with each of our guests -- a few friends and my IL's. My parents coudn't make it because my mom had to have surgery a week before we left. :(

     

    I was at my SIL's wedding last April in the Dominican. She had over 60 people come, and she was SO stressed the entire week about spending time with everyone, she barely enjoyed her week, and it turned out super expensive because she had to pay extra for the reception.

     

    Our reception was a blocked off part of one of the regular resteraunts, nothing super special, we had a bunch of stuff thrown in for free because there were so few of us (trio, chair covers etc).

  5. This so happened to me and a hundred girls on here so you are SO not alone!!

     

    I was going to wait until the person had booked the trip before asking them to be in my wedding party, but in the end, we only had 8 people commit to come down, so I didn't have anyone stand up with me, which was fine with me in the end. I actually even preferred it, so none of my guests weren't caught up in the dress/hair/makeup thing.

     

    My BFF ended up being an honorary maid of honour and organized my shower and stuff for me at home, but right up until a week before we left she kept saying we are coming last minute! YA, whatever!

     

    I would not pay for her ticket. You have enough expenses to worry about, and if other people (especially bridal party!) finds out you paid for her ticket and not theirs, there might be hard feelings. If she can't make it, she can't make it, end of story, IMO.

  6. I'm not sure I can recommend a brand specifically because I had my make up done at the resort, but I will definately +1 the use of a primer. It's SO HOT down there, your make up will just slide off if you don't have a good base.

     

    As for colour, I think the classic neutrals will be timeless and hold up 10-15 years down the line when you are looking at your album.

  7. There are a bunch out there now that I started looking, besides all those already mentioned.

    My decision was made for me: my dad bought me a Kobo for Christmas. :) He's so excited about it he already told me. And bought one for himself! LOL.
