  1. Valerie, it's more affordable and the resort is nicer than some of the others I've been to in the DR. You can't go wrong! I can't recommend enough the honeymoon suite. You won't regret it!!
  2. 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.
  3. There are a bunch out there now that I started looking, besides all those already mentioned. the Entourage Edge: http://www.entourageedge.com/entourage-edge.html Pandigital Novel colour http://www.pandigital.net/?PageID=271 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.
  4. Thanks Abbie! Well my decision was made for me: my dad bought me a Kobo for Christmas. Yes, he already told me because he's so excited about it, he went and bough one for himself! I'll let you know what I think of it after Christmas!
  5. That's where my SIL's reception (outside) and dinner (inside) was. It was FAB.
  6. Nook? Never even heard of it! Off to google!! Thanks Cali!
  7. Does anyone remember the kind of soup they served at the japanese restaurant? OMG this was the BEST soup I've ever had, and I'm going to try and find a recipe, but can't for the life of me remember what kind it was. I was just down there in the spring for my SIL's wedding. THANKS!!!
  8. I'm bumping this again because I'm wanting to put this on my Christmas list. Kobo with wifi is going for $149. Bachata did you end up getting one?
  9. Hi, I'm new to this thread too but did use the Clear Blue monitor when I was TTC'ing a few years ago. It worked really well, and always clearly showed when I O'd. Sadly, O'ing is not my issue as I have blocked tubes, but I highly recommend the monitor. Â Did you buy one yet? I was able to pick up one for super cheap on Ebay. I turned around and resold it for exact same (or maybe more? LOL) that I bought it for. Â
  10. FWIW, I don't think Julissa is the official WC anymore. She was when I got married in '08 and just as I was getting married she was training someone else, as she was going to be in charge of conferences. I think she just fills in when the work gets too much.
  11. Â Â Â It's not up to your family to question your decision. It's YOUR decision. Don't let family deter your decision to do what's best for you and FI. Â I would say 80-90% of us have gone through this, so you are SO not alone.
  12. When we had our wedding in '08, the honeymoon suite was cheaper than the junior suite. I would check with your TA to confirm if this is still the case.
  13. I definately recommend booking right away. There are only 24 honeymoon suites (I think?) on the whole resort on the Blue and Sand sides. They were completely full when we were there, and there were a few brides that were dissapointed they werent getting a suite, because they had waited. Â Remember, for people like DH and I, we were there for 2 weeks, so we hogged the suite the whole time
  14. I had my ceremony at the beach and honestly, yes there was people all around, but I did not care a lick. I only had eyes on my DH and I was so 'in the moment' I didn't see or hear anything going on around me LOL. I even remember being pissed afterwards that DH's best man forgot to put the music on and he's like actually it was on the whole time! haha.
  15. I added my review to the new 'resorts and villas' wiki in case anyone missed it

  20. I can't wait! Looks like it's going to be fantastic!
  21. wow, that's lots! LOL. I can't help, we were a rockin group of 10!
  22. For sure book the honeymoon suite. If for nothing else, your guests are a little away from you in another building. I enjoyed that immensely

  24. I will also say, that I just got back from my SIL's wedding at Dreams Punta Cana, and although that resort was really nice, I liked OB way better. The layout is just so much better, with all the restaraunts in one place, and especially the shuttle buggy were definate plusses for OB.
