  1. We stored my dress and his suit in the 1st class closet. We did not even ask, we were going to put them in the overhead. But the flight attendant took both from us and put them in there! This was on US Air direct from Charlotte to MoBay
  2. I would recommend Brian Nejedly. He was amazing. I think with Beaches, though, the minimum night's stay is 3?

It is from You, Me and Dupre! Jim got it from zazzle.com. It was a button, and I don't think that it was more than like $4

But you were a beautiful bride and I'm glad everything worked out so well. The reception was beautiful! Did you wear a Mrs. shirt afterwards? Like the next day or day after? I saw a bride wearing a Mrs. shirt walking with her new husband and I was wondering if it was you or the other girl I was talking to on the forum. But maybe not You had a lot of people - I agree, you really don't get a vacation when you have that many people going with you. I'm glad you're going on a cruise to relax. Nope...no Mrs. shirt!! The day after we ended up going on the Catamaran trip so we weren't around for a good part of the day. It's too bad that we didn't all get to meet, but I'm glad everyone had a good time. I, too, am thankful for the cruise!!
  5. Congrats on the wedding and the baby!! I saw you walking around with Brian on Friday. You looked beautiful!! I don't think it was us though at your wedding reception...we were at Plantation for our rehearsal dinner. I agree with you on Brian. Best decision ever!! I actually think I watched your wedding too.

I have been searching for something similar w/ no luck. I actually got it at Victorias Secret!! Jim picked it out. Didn't think I would like it but ended up loving it. So comfy!

I figured scanning would have been the best way. I emailed Chantelle but she hasn't answered me yet. I honestly just plain old mailed them! No fedex, no return receipt. The postal worker said it would be ok and it reached them 10 days later. I would only do this if you have time....

Again, congrats! Yeah Jim strung them on fishing wire and secured each flower with hot glue. Took him 4 hours. But it looked really pretty without and it was really really windy, so I wasn't too upset. Flowers were bought from Hobby Lobby.
  9. I honestly just sent the originals via regular mail and they got there fine. It cost me under $2
  10. I believe Sheila's delivery charge is included in the cake price. The cake was awesome!
  11. Thanks so much everyone!! I have put about half the reception pics up on Flickr and the rest will be done tonight! I have not put personal photos on there yet though... Quote: Originally Posted by kris Your pictures are sooo beautiful...your veil was crazy long hey...It looked pretty blowing in the wind. For the poolside reception do they set up the lights around the pillar or did you have to upgrade that. Also how much did the reception cost per person (food and open bar) Also did you just book it when you got there with Chandlyn or were you able to do it ahead of time? How far in advance did you work with Sheila's bakery. Sorry for all the questions....Thanks in advance...and CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Everything looked amazing Yeah, my veil was super long but I loved it!! They already seem to have the lights set up around the pillars, so there was no fee for that. The reception was $55 per person and included food, alcohol, and table setup. My niece is 2 and we did not have to pay anything for her. I booked it way in advance through my TA, maybe last summer (so like 9 months ago?) but if its available you would be able to book it with Chandlyn. In terms of Sheila's, my TA worked on that with her. I maybe gave them my picture of what I wanted it to look like a month before.

Quick question... did you have the option of renting a DJ? I have my music on a CD and am a little worried about how I am going to get to play it at the reception.. Also, what was the weather like? I have been looking at the weather channel and it is calling for rain and thunder everyday for the whole week!!! A am a little scared! Thanks a bunch! Allyson Good luck!! You will love it!! I did have the option for a DJ but I think it was something like $250 per person, and not worth it for us. The weather was PERFECT! The weather report showed rain every day, but it only rained early in the morning (like before 7 or 8 am) and then once at 4 for 20 mins or so.

He is going to be my photog too and seeing your pics makes me realize i made the best choice. How long was Brian with you? Brian is awesome! My entire family loved him and complemented me on the choice all night. He was with us from about 3-9:30. He took probably 1000 photos and gave me 600+ Quote: Originally Posted by Scott-Pierre Thanks for sharing! I was really looking forward to your reception pics! The set up was beautiful! All the extra lights u had really enhanced the location. I am glad that overall everything went well! What flavor was your cake? Was that the smallest size cake that Sheila offers? When did she deliver the cake? How much did she charge for delivery? I know that u bought your own Ipod docking station, but did Chandlyn have an Ipod docking station that u could use during the wedding ceremony and reception? Congratulations! I really loved the setup too! It was more than I imagined! My cake was vanilla with a strawberry and some sort of cream filling with butter cream frosting. I just showed them a pic that another bride had and she replicated that, so I am sure that it could have been smaller but by that point I was so over making decisions! All I know is I wanted a 2-tier!! She did deliver the cake, and I think it was included in the $300 price. I saw my cake coming in when I was taking pics. I do not think that Chandlyn has a docking station. I know she has some sort of boombox, and it might have an AUX imput that you can connect your IPod to. For the ceremony, she had a mic set up for us to speakers, so I am sure they can do that with the boombox. We justified the Bose because it was way cheaper than the DJ!!

I brought my own flowers, which I purchased from PlumeriasWeddingFlowerBoutique Roberta was AWESOME to work with and I love my flowers! Quote: Originally Posted by ~Debra~ You looked beautiful and I loved your bouquet! I do have one question...was the cake good? I'm using Sheila's Bakery too. I also see that you said that you had less than 30 people and you said that you had alot of cake left over. Did you order cake for more than 30 people? Other than that, CONGRATS! Sounds like everything went great except for a couple minor glitches. The cake was SO good. If I wasn't feeling so crappy I would have eaten more! It was 2 tier. We really wanted a 2-tier cake and I am not sure that she could have made it smaller! So the cake could have definately fed like 50, maybe more!! We sent a lot home with Brian, then gave some to the resort people, and made our guests eat more Mon night! We had cake bags out for people to take some back to their room but no one did.

But we got about 40 for $20 so no complaints! My SIL and I just stuck them in the cake and it was perfect. They taste pretty good too!
  14. Well, I got back Tues...but I'm almost back to normal!!! Review and pics are up in the review section. Everything was perfect!! You cannot go wrong with the ROR!!
  15. I forgot to add: OOT BAGS BIG Hit! We bought the hibiscus bags from OTC, and filled with a towel, mug, Photoshare card and wedding info, candle, First aid kit. They were all used.
  16. Quote: Originally Posted by Erika J I loved your luminaries, where did you get them?? TIA!! I made them...no wait, DH made them They were super easy though. We just bought gold doilies (the full ones) and white lunch bags, cut the doilies in different shapes to fit, and then filled with sand and candles.
  17. Well everyone, I am back from my fabulous wedding and vacation. Everything went perfectly and I would have not done it any other way. The ROR is an amazing place, and I kept questioning the bad reviews! Maybe because I was prepared for the common complaints, I was numb to it. But I really did not have any issues! This place is definitely for the more laid-back bride. I had a lot of details I wanted covered and everything was beyond my expectations! AIRLINE - US Air: A Our flight left on-time and arrived ahead of schedule. We had to bring 3 bags checked with us for $55 total which was fine. We also carried on 2 rolling suitcases, my wedding dress and his suit. I was stopped by TSA who saw all the wires of me flowers and made me pull apart my suitcase which was also stuffed with clothes. Not what I wanted to do at 6:00 AM!! But the gate agent was so nice and let DH and I board with first class to give us more time. We had the sweetest flight attendants who hung both of our outfits in the 1st class closet…which we didn’t even ask for. It was a nice touch. The plane ride back was also uneventful and sad. We were only slightly delayed. I really like US Air and will probably continue to use them, especially because we have a hub. AIRPORT TRANSFER – Jamaica Tours Limited: A Finding the JTL desk was fine once we got through customs. They were quick and efficient and told us where to go to get our transfer back to the airport set up. We forgot that the porters are kinda pushy, but we did have 7 bags so whatever. Well, DH gave the porter $3 not realizing that its $1 per bag. We carried 2 of the bags, so we really owed $5. He gave the guy $5 and asked for his $3 back and the porter got kinda mean. But we got our cash back. We would have let him keep it but he was extremely rude. Our driver was great and gave us a lot of info on the area as we were driving. The bus was old but the AC worked and we got to the resort alright. Stopped at a rest stop for some Red Stripe and a beef patty. We met some really nice people on the bus which made the trip even better. Only made 1 stop at the Grand Bahia which looked amazing. Passed by a bunch of resorts, most very gorgeous, some not so much! The trip back was fine, made a rest stop but slept most of the way. Really, the 1.5-2 hour bus ride is really not that bad in the end. RESORT – RIU Ocho Rios: A+++ All I can say is WOW! As we approached the resorts, I had no real opinion, but when we pulled up to the lobby, I was blown away. It is even more gorgeous in person and the breezes coming through felt so great. We went to check in but our room wasn’t ready. We were originally put in 1477 but that room still was not ready at 3 so we were changed to 1157. Both are Jr. Suites. My parents actually got 1477 which faced the mountains and ocean. Our room faced the tranquility pool and ocean. Both rooms were the same, and suited our needs. All the rooms smelled musty, but it wasn’t really a big deal. The buildings are made of concrete and you are in the tropics, so its expected. I felt a little uncomfortable leaving my luggage strewn about the lobby, but we checked in on it periodically and everything was ok. We just had some lunch, walked around a bit to get an idea of the resort and then waited around for some friends to show up. As I said, the Jr. Suite was fine. We had no issues with the safe, the bed was a little firm but nothing horrible. We gave the drink people some cash and they kept us stocked up on extra Red Stripe, Diet coke and water. We waited to unpack for 2 days to see if we would get an upgrade to a full suite, but they seemed filled up and we wanted to unpack. So we just gave up since we wanted to try and enjoy the vacation. Water pressure was great, and the only day that I actually saw ants was they day that we left. Our parents arrive later that day, somehow missing a suitcase with our hanging orchids, beach mats and monogrammed tissues. We were very careful to let them know that we had given them 4 suitcases to take, and even labeled them. But whoever was in charge of that suitcase just left it behind at MBJ. We tried to have them deliver it to the resort for us but since it was our fault, we would have had to go all the way back to MBJ to get it, which was not happening. We tried to get it back when we left but somehow, Air Jamaica could not find it. Oh well. If we ever get it back, great, if not, we are out $50 and 4 hours of our time. Back to the resort. It really is amazing. We were never bored. I did find that I liked the tranquility pool more than the activity pool. Just sitting and leaning against that infinity edge….heaven. DH and the guys decided to go over that wall many many times. A good amount of those times was on some poor kid’s inflatable….even watch DH go over head first on the wedding day. Not happy! The ocean was always awesome. We took out some snorkel gear and headed to the side of the resort with the gazebo, which had awesome snorkeling. One of our guests saw a sting ray and a puffer fish. We just saw a bunch of tropical stuff. Have to watch out for those sea urchins. We did step on a few. A few of the guests also took out some paddle boats, the small catamarans and kayaks and had fun with those. We were just too busy. Food was fantastic. Jerk hut was really good and one day had a special buffet out. St. Anne’s was fine for most meals and always had many choices, but Piccola, Mammee and Plantation were good alternatives for lunch. We even grabbed a late night sandwich from the sports bar and that was fine too. Apparently they have really good coffee as well. We were able to get a reso for 6 people at Tushima one night and went with the friends. 2 extra guests showed up and tried to give the head server a tip but he seemed put off by it and was kind enough to add them to the reso. Our friends actually made the reso the day before with a tip so that was nice. On our last night, we were able to get resos for 15 at Sir. Richard for all of our guests and we just gave the girl $10 and 4 room numbers. Both specialties were fantastic!! Drinks were all good and strong enough. I tried a bunch of different things and just let the bartender make whatever they wanted. We all seemed to love the rum cream. I don’t know what else to say about the resort that has not been said before. It is gorgeous and I would not hesitate going back in a heartbeat. Everyone is so nice and only here and there did we run into someone not that nice. We saw that a lot more with females than males. EXCURSIONS: B+ Lumping these together, as some things were better than others. We took the catamaran trip via ScubaCaribe to snorkeling and Dunn’s River Falls. The snorkeling and the boat ride were awesome. We paid $54.00 per person, as we had a RIU card and a group discount. Its it usually $65.00. Our group split in 2 with ½ going Friday and the rest Sunday. The first group came off trashed!! Our group was much more subdued. I usually get somewhat seasick so I took some Dramamine and was fine but tired. Laying face down on the netting at the front of the boat was amazing!! The falls were fine. I really did not like our guide. He was yanking us along and barking out orders, and I felt somewhat unsafe here and there. Really, it’s a once in a lifetime experience, but I would not do it again. I was pretty sore afterwards, so at least I got a good workout in. We also took a trip to Island Village on Monday via cab bus from the resort. We had 14 people and it was $8 pp RT, with some coming back at 2:30 and the others at 4. Left around 12:30 and headed to Margaritaville. Waterslide was really fun, but that’s where that ended. Drinks took 40 mins to come out, and then food nearly an hour. Was not that busy, and food basically sucked. Half the people went back and couldn’t finish eating. The rest of us went shopping. Same stuff shop after shop, and I was bored after 30 mins. Mom, DH and I ended up catching another cab back and leaving the others to return at 4. Would not go into OR again, unfortunately…. ENTERTAINMET: A These people work HARD! You see them around the resort, working hard all day, then they have to rehearse, then the show. Even if they are cheesy, they do a great job, We saw the Stars show, Jam Around the World and Michael Jackson. The MJ show was great! The Disco was also fun and played fairly current music. The night we went it was really hot. I had my wedding dress on and needed to get out of there pretty fast! WEATHER: A+ Perfect!! The only day it really rained was Friday around 4. Poor girl getting married at that time had to wait 20 mins before starting. Otherwise, it was warm and sunny, with great breezes. At night, the wind seemed to die down, making it a little uncomfortable at times, esp with a wedding dress on! CHANDLYN: A Chandlyn and Nikki are busy ladies! We showed up 9am on Thurs with half the family in tow (lots of different people paying). Chandlyn was ready for us, and we went over everything. We realized that we were missing our hanging orchids, and it was “No Problem Mon.†She just used some tulle and birds of paradise and it was perfect. We chose the white folding chairs with orange sashes ($7 per chair), Steel Drum Band for 1 hour ($350), Appetizers ($8.00 per person – they upped the price to $11 but she honored the old price), Poolside dinner and dancing ($55.00 per person). We wrote our own ceremony, brought our Sound Dock and IPod and all of our décor, which we gave to her with basic instructions. She executed everything perfectly. REHEARSAL DINNER: Plantation: A- Finished up with the Rehearsal which was pointless since everyone forgot what to do by the time the wedding came around!! But it settled my nerves a little! We were set to have dinner at Mammee Bay but they moved it which was fine. Food was pretty good and our servers were great. We had asked for an extension cord for the Bose but they could not find one. DH was a little stressed but got over that fast. Food started coming out really fast but then slowed down a lot. Some were finished by the time others were starting. But it was all good. We gave out the gifts to our girls, guys and parents. There was a wedding upstairs but we could barely hear them. They seemed to have the same setup as us. Our dinner was free, but mom paid for some bottles of Champagne. WEDDING: Beyond Amazing! The morning of the wedding I was really sick. I had not been drinking a lot, but I have a really sensitive stomach so I was sick most of the week. Oh well. Jim and I had stayed together the night before due to me not feeling well and he went and grabbed me some food. After that he left me alone to sleep. Finally got out of bed at about 10am and got myself cleaned up. This is when I see Jim heading over the infinity pool head first!! Headed over to Renova (A+) to hang out with the moms while they were getting their hair done. At this time I found out there was a theft problem in my SIL’s friends room (apparently they were in a std room and someone snuck in in the night and stole an IPod and some cash from the safe), so I ran back to my room just to ensure that all was put away. We had no issues the entire time we were there, and I left my phone and whatnot out… Anyways, Nikki did my hair and makeup and it came out perfect. I brought some of my makeup and used some of theirs. I looked like a different person in the end! And she copied my hair perfectly from the pic. We were there from 10:30 am-3:00 pm in total but I left at about 2 to get to my room. I paid for 4 updo’s and 2 makeups and it was about $350.00…SIL paid for her own and her mom’s makeup. SIL was rushing to get back to the room since they were running late, and they forgot to use the hair flower. Photog (more about him later) came at around 2:45 and apparently we did not pay the day pass so I had to send my mom down to take care of that. He came up and I sent him to DHs room to take their photos and to give him the BD book to open so I could get reaction pics. Jim refused to open it at that point so he waited til after the wedding. Brian then came back down to my room and did his thing. We got me into my dress at about 3:40 and then had a toast and then we were off. Nikki came and got me at 4. Weather was perfect. They could not find my natural sand, but as we were walking over, Chandlyn came running with it. I was standing at the ramp by the pool just waiting and worrying that Jim could see me, but he said he wasn’t looking. Everyone was out of place and milling around and my niece was freaking out. SILs friends were late, so SIL had to show my friend how to work the video camera. Finally people took their places and we could start. The Steel Drums played Cannon in D, and I was cracking up because my long a$$ veil was flying all over the place (dad had to hold it down) and I could not walk in the sand with the dress…so I just hiked up up a little and started walking with mom and dad. Jim looked so sunburned and nervous!! Apparently Rev. Grant was just now getting our ceremony because he stumbled a lot. It was ok though since it made up laugh and smile a lot. Jim stuck a random line from Led Zepplin’s Cashmere in the wording which had my brother laughing. It was just honestly randomly stuck in there! We did our sand ceremony, reading, and wrote our own vows. Both our fingers were so swollen that we had a hard time getting the rings on (although FIs flew off the next day in the pool during water volleyball…not happy!! We found it though). And that was that. It was about 30 mins long and flew by. After that, we had a little dog visitor and proceeded to have appetizers. I made sure to have some and they were really good. We also had rum punch then, and waited on the campagne until dinner. Brian took us all over the resort for pics while the guests headed to the Blue Mountain Bar. Reception: This was poolside, and let me tell you, it was PERFECT. They started setting up around 3 so I got to watch from my room. Chandlyn and Nikki, along with my 2 SILs helped ensure it was perfect. They hung the Chinese battery lanterns (which lasted, like a hour….) and set up the tables without any guidance. It was beyond what I had expected. Our cake was strawberry with buttercream ($300) from Sheila’s Bakery. I can try to get the contact info. We added brown sugar and the gum paste seashells that we brought. It was awesome and we brought the leftovers to the MJ show to eat, and gave the rest to the bartenders and servers at the wedding. It was way too much! Anyways, we had them set up the paper bag luminaries around the space, and it was so cozy and intimate. We decided on the BBQ menu, which was fabulous. Our servers were great and our bartender Dwayne was very engaging (made us our farewell shots too). We used our Bose with IPod and our playlists, and had my cousin be the “DJ.†We decided against renting the mic and just used our “outdoor voices†which worked out fine. Reception lasted until about 11 so we missed the Beach Party, but that was fine. Jim and I ended the night with 2 Flaming Bob Marley’s, which you can see our reactions of on the last of the pro pics!! After the reception we headed over to the disco and then off to bed. PHOTOGRAPHER – Brian Nejedly: A+++++++++ Brian is amazing and a true friend. He interacted with the families and friends, and really made the day special. He captured everything without being intruding, and I rarely noticed he was there. If he saw something funny (me and my niece standing in the pool with my dress hiked up) he grabbed his camera. He directed us on what to do for the portraits, and stood back for the candids. You cannot go wrong with Brian, and I highly recommend him. He made it a point to get us our disc on his way to dropping his daughter off for school on Monday. He has a beautiful family, just having a baby boy the week before. The wedding was perfect. There was drama – (1)One of Jim’s GM decided he couldn’t come to the wedding Fri morning (WTF?!?!!?) so that resulted in a last min replacement. We even bought his outfit. He didn’t bother to call and sent the message along with the MB Fri evening…. (2)Now, do you ladies remember the bridesmaid I posted about who sent me the gazillion texts? I am over her. She is rude and inconsiderate. She whined the entire reception about how hot it was (duh!! I was in an effing wedding dress…I know!) and how I was rude not to let her change. First, you are in the wedding party, second, the photog is still here!!! She then proceeded to drag her husband to bed (he was the impromptu GM) at like 9pm since she wanted to get laid. The reception was not even over, and even the 2 year old niece was still up. I think that she was mad that we said she couldn’t change and wanted to get back at me. She had made resos for the gourmet restaurant the night of our reception for some reason and we think that they may have snuck off there first. Then she continued to complain about how hot she was the next day and how she should have just changed. She also refused to sign our postcard guest book (who knows why) and made the BM do it for her….Lastly, she did not talk to me for the rest of the trip. I am hurt by her actions and do not think that I can proceed with our friendship at this point. (3)Jim lost a toenail playing beach volleyball the day of the wedding. I did not know this until he told me during pictures  So in summary, the wedding was perfect. I would do it again in a heartbeat and would have changed nothing about the ceremony and reception, or the husband!! Things we did think about: (1)If you think you have enough sunblock, add 2 bottles!! Its very expensive (2)Take time for yourselves and don’t stretch yourself too thin. We were too concerned about out guests enjoyment and didn’t take a lot of time for us (3)DRINK A LOT OF WATER!!! I think that my sickness issue was in part due to dehydration. Just because you are in the water does not mean that you are hydrated!! (4)We wish we had stayed an extra day, just ourselves, to unwind. Luckily we have our cruise honeymoon in July. It is not a relaxing vacation when you have 25 people with you!! (5)Good walking shoes! The resort is huge and we spent a lot of time going back and forth between the 2 sides. The one thing we would have changed? Sticking to 3 GM and 3 BM. We could have ditched the guy that didn’t show up and the girl who I cannot be friends with, and it would have been that much better ;-) Pro Pics: BrianDesign password: acuna Non-pro Pics: Jim and Julie Acuna's photosets on Flickr I have not uploaded anything yet, but am working on it. Let me know what questions you have!!
  18. Thanks ladies! I am so fidgity! I should have stayed home today but then I would have been this way at home :-) Off to the dentist though, and then to get our (yes!! he is getting his done too!!) manicures and pedicures. Yes they serve beer, so he is happy about that!! At least that should keep me busy!
  19. Well, its finally my time!! I have 1 more hour here at work, and thats that. I might check in later today but I have a ton to do before I can try to get some sleep! Lets hope that none of my 3 checked suitcases heading down from NC, and my 4 from NY get lost!! I will report back when I get home. Thanks everyone for all of your help and ideas!!
  20. Well, we are all packed up...except for our clothes. I have to cut my packed items by at least 1/4. So not wanting to be at work but I only have 5.5 hours left between today and tomorrow!! Then its off to the airport early Wed AM At this point I am only stressing about the 9 guests on Air Jamaica out of JFK Wed. I hear they just love to delay that flight....
  21. Welcome back! Hope I get to read it before I am off to the ROR!
  22. IThe white linens are included in the dinner setup. I think if you are just doing the reception, its included in the price you pay for table setup. White chairs are $5.00 each I believe
  23. I feel kinda dumb asking this but... We are planning on buying postcards to use as our guestbook. We will have each guest write a message and send it back to us in the mail. We would like to stamp each postcard first of course. Can I buy stamps at the airport or resort? I would prefer not to have to hunt down a post office!! Also, I assume you can give these to someone at the reception desk to mail out? TIA!
  24. Anyone buy it in the airport? I have heard that some of the stuff, like Appleton Rum, is cheaper there? I suppose I can find out in a few days

Thats a really good deal. We were going to use Lees but once all the crap went on with Air Jamaica, flights got changed, and now we will be arriving 7 hours before the rest of our party. So we are just going to use the transfers our TA set up. We just don't want to set up a tour beforehand for Dunn's River - we know how flaky some of the people can be and I would hate to say "x" people and end up being "y" people and having to foot that bill. I think in the end we will probably go the taxi route.
