welcome! i might use the search link on the top right to look for reviews that have already been written. you can also look through the dreams pv thread - a lot of us have our reviews posted in our signatures. i'm not sure if there is a grand velas thread, but you can search for that too!
good luck!

what else should you do? if you have the place and time, what do you need to plan with samantha that can't wait a month?

we asked for a non-denominational wedding - no god references, heaven stuff, etc. our minister found every way possible to say god without actually saying the word god. i wish my husband had uploaded our video - it's HILARIOUS! we had no clue what the woman was talking about and couldn't look at each other through the ceremony because we would have laughed. at one point, she told him to look at me.
i don't think anyone has talked about having that kind of experience since, but if you want to avoid it altogether, either write your own or ask the WC for a copy of the script.

So I think I found a STD! It's really hard for me! Anyone else have a hard time?

Im leaning toward pink, maybe teal. Our colors are bright blue, fushia, and bright orange.
Im hoping to send em soon. The wedding is April 9 2011. Im not sure about time lines for everything.
One more general question: who had a legal ceremony and who had symbolic? I think we are leaning toward having our legal day here first. We probably would only tell the BM and MOH...Im worried some people might be mad or not get it if we aren't "really" getting married there. Anyone who did a symbolic : did you pick your own ceremony script? Did you do regular vows? Im hoping no one will know the difference! -
gotcha. so you paid to rent oceana on top of the wedding package. that makes sense to me.
-
so you don't need to buy a wedding package anymore? interesting...
-
so it's $2k on top of the wedding package? is that included as part of the $ you're paying dazzling details?

congrats on getting the interview! but keep in mind that that's all it is...an interview! it's not a job offer (yet), it's just a possibility. i'd focus on the test and getting that done and overwith. after the test, talk to your fi about the possibilities - not the "what would happens", but the "would you consider its".
i know it's easier said than done, but focus on one step at a time. it'll fall into place.

i'll answer what i can...

there might not be 105 pages here if people actually read the thread rather than asking questions that have been answered several times. if you notice, i don't tell people to search for answers to questions that haven't been answered, or search for things that might have changed. i agree that many things have changed....however, if you've actually read through, you'll notice that the same questions are asked over and over - menu, decor, where to have the ceremony/reception - and those answers have remained the same. here is a link explaining reasons to search: http://bestdestinationwedding.com/fo...edition-14777/
i could question your motives on this board as well...if you're not satisfied with my answers or this thread - which you're obviously not, as you've only posted on the entire board a total of three times in the 16 months you've been a member - one of which was wasted posting a snarky comment to me (and yet you've stated that this is a place to converse...?), then don't bother reading. -
thanks girls!!! i'm due 12/21, so it could be christmas day!!!

there are some great photographers on this website - use the search function to see all of the threads devoted to different photogs. i used rick collins, who flew in from vancouver. he's quite familiar with the area, and has since done my brother-in-laws wedding, and the opening ceremonies for the olympics in vancouver. check out my pics in the thread in my siggy. good luck!
ETA: for some reason my slideshow isn't working unless you continue to click launch in this window over and over...may have something to do with the fact that it's 2 1/2 years old.....but you can also check out his website. just google him. -
our ta had us upgraded. ask your ta if they could "help you out" with it....

try searching the forum. there are plenty of TAs on here and plenty of recommendations. there's even a whole section devoted to travel.

ugh - while i LOVE those pictures and love every picture that rick (the photog) takes, that was NOT my rehearsal dinner dress. i ate and drank too much the 3 days before to fit into my dress! i want to kick myself every time i see them.
anywho, our rehearsal dinner was at barcelona tapas, and the pics were taken on the surrounding streets. rick knew the area and then went scouting earlier that day. i wish i had more details for you, but unfortunately, i left it all in his hands.

questions like this have been answered SO many times. there's a search button on the top right that can help you find answers to almost every question you have!

BTW - menu choices have also been discussed at length WITHIN this thread!!! while it's lengthy, it's an invaluable resource. try reading the whole thread rather than ask the same questions over and over and over - you're likely to get more answers that way. you could also try reading reviews from brides; usually they include menu reviews as well. -
idk where you can find them, but you can be sure that they'll certainly melt quickly....

we had 2 kids at my wedding and they wound up going to bed 1/2 way through anyway. i put out coloring books and some toys for them and they kept themselves entertained while they were there.
i don't think it's fair to ask people to come for a family vacation and then get a stranger to watch the kids. lots of people here have had some good suggestions.

we strongly urged our guests to stay at our hotel too. basically, we told them that they'd have to arrange transportation and pay for the guest pass, and that it would be a pain in the neck. everyone stayed with us.

congrats! definitely go through this thread and the dreams pv review threads to find out about food. it's been covered extensively. -
have you tried looking at reviews? those are full of insight.
-
we had about 1/3, but we would have had more if we didn't go to pv.
you may want to pose this question in the general forum for more responses.

I believe you would have to pay for him as a guest, and I'm not sure about their vendor policies mow, so i wonder if it would be beneficial to call him a friend, Esther than photographer.....? that being said, I got married before they had vendor rules, so we just told the wc that the photog was coming and that she should make arrangements.
