Sunrise offered several other hotels and accommodations in the area that the other guests could stay at. So we had our family/wedding party at Sunrise and then other guests could stay at the local places and come in for the day etc. They even offer a plan where the guests pay a fee for the day and can be included in meals, etc, even though they aren't staying there. We actually booked Castellamonte to begin with and changed only because we liked the separate villas that Sunrise had to offer, verses all being under one roof. It made it feel more private and we were really renting a small village verses a small villa, lol. Feel free to reply or PM me with any specific questions. Sunrise was by far the best decision I made, next to my Groom choice

I saw a thread where the bride posted her layout for a photo book she was doing online. I worked on mine for the last six months and my computer crashed and I lost it. I can't remmy the website and have looked through a million threads. I went to the link in her post and downloaded the program and did it all on my computer. Any help? It is not snapfish and its not mypublisher... if you know this you will be my hero! Mishi

Your pictures are beautiful! You can see his adoration in the pic where he saw you for the first time! I love that you had the Shamanic spiritual side. I am a Shaman as well and the love during these ceremonies are unforgettable. En La'kesh

Amazing, amazing pics. You were absolutely stunning. And I have to say (which this may have been posted before) but your hubbies looks like Ty Pennington, reoooowwwww! LOL, congrats!

I was flying out to Cancun in the morning for our anniversary... I can't imagine you girls leaving in the immediate future for your weddings, I would be hysterical. We are with US Airways and called thinking we were going to be able to switch our ticket to somewhere else for free but it is only those flying into Mexico City. If you are flying into Cancun, you are screwed. It is 150 per person to change, plus the additional cost of the ticket if the new one is higher. We got a hotel on another island and are waiting it out hoping they are going to add Cancun to the list... but if not there is another $300 down the drain!

Yeah I just didn't want to wear all black to it you know... thats why I didn't go with a white jacket and did the white pants instead so I wouldn't take away. I am so confused ;0(

The grandmother of the bride is wearing a pant suit too (my MIL) so... it made me feel better about one.

Hi Ladies, I am attending a 2pm formal wedding in NJ next weekend (Sunday April 19th) for my Husbands Niece. They are having a full dinner and everything after... huge Italian wedding. Anywhoo... I am not a dress kinda girl... so I am thinking a pair of white slacks, white strappy sandaly(I know thats not a word ;0) heels, black dressy shirt with a black blazer. Then I am going to do chunky turquoise and silver jewelry. Is this appropriate? I know it may be a little early on the white... but everyone is saying you can wear white anytime now. And then to wear white at all... its a wedding... and then to wear black, crap I don't know. What do you think?

I want in! I need motivation baby ;0) I lost a ton for the wedding and gained half of it back, yuck.

Hi and welcome to the forum! I agree with the other ladies, the best part about a DW is that you don't have to do anything but show up. I didn't even pick colors cuz at the end of the day anything in these locations is beautiful! I would start by looking at any planning threads you can find. These are the threads where the brides take pics of everything they have done or made or bought in prep for the wedding. They are a lot of fun and will you give you inspiration of what you might need. The only other advice would be to find out what your location provides and let them handle that. Then pick your colors if you haven't already and worry about your clothing (You, fiance, wedding party, etc), hair, makeup, cake, favors, OOT (out of town bags) and any other little touches you want to add. Just remember the more you try to add the more you have to get to your location. Good luck and trust me... we will be here to help!

So what happened? I hope everything was ok... I was hoping there would be an update by the time I got home.

We booked one for the first full day we were there so that everyone would have them for the whole week. Our guests loved it. They charged us 10 per person unless the person bought more than $50 in product and then they were free. I think it would be great at the event too. Hope that helps some ;0)

You looked amazing! Congrats and thanks for sharing!
