Secondly, you CANNOT customize any of the wedding packages in the sense you are hoping for. Trust me! I wanted to do this also, as it seemed only fair (not in wedding planning world)!...You can customize UP, but you cannot customize DOWN! I suggest..if there are a lot of things in the bigger packages that you just don't want or need (spa treatments, etc) then...start at a more basic package level, and get quotes for all the things you DO want.
We ended up selecting the Luxury Package, as the Star Crossed one was...not only a heck of a lot more money...but had a bunch of stuff we just didn't need, or want. For the extras that we did want, we're paying reasonable upgrade prices for those...and ultimately feel that our wedding is going to be EXACTLY what we want now. It's worth it to put in the extra planning time in my opinion...
Although, paying for an all encompassing package, and letting them do ALL the work...has its perks as well!
Don't stress! If you are concerned, or just need to vent...you have us! We've all been there, or are getting there...and some of us would even do it all again, so, come here and pose the questions. You're on the right path...
FIRST THING...book your date and get them that deposit!!! Then..onto other planning stuff! -
Yes...the cricket (grasshopper in our case) has become quite symbolic to us...long story, I won't bore you...but...its definitely personal!

Hi everyone...
We're having our AHR the weekend after we arrive back from our Mexican wedding. We decided some time ago we wanted to have a ... sort of ... Hollywood Romance theme...to emphasis how classic our own story is...and define our true love of movies!
We have few ideas, mostly just to warm the room up and make it more romantic...but...we've sort of lost the Hollywood part!
We know you are all FILLED with incredible ideas...and thought we'd just post to see if anyone could steer us back in a Hollywood Romantic direction!
This is what we're doing so far:
For the cocktail hour (and a half) we have a reel of Hollywoods Best/Most Romantic Kisses...its about an hour, and we'll just loop it...we're playing it to some of our favorite romantic soundtrack songs...as background ambience.
We have "Main Attraction" drink tickets that we made (see below)...and "LOVE" letters for the cake table.
We'll be doing the Martha Stewart Poms and Luminaries in Ivory and Citrus Green...
We're having a "white" carpet and ropes entrance with a photographer shoot (our hope is to acquire pics of our guests to compile our Guest book with, and ... have a picture to send everyone in their thank yous)
There will be lots of mini lights and candles...champagne and delicious food.
What else can we do to make it all come together?

Montreal, Quebec but... I'm from Grande Prairie/Edmonton, Alberta!

I have found a lot of things I love at theknotweddingshop.com...
That being said, I cannot order any of them as I am Canadian, with a Canadian billing address. Woe is me.
Does anyone know of a site that sells similar products to those on the Knot site? I'm specifically interested in the "LOVE" napkins (beverage), the Silk Cosmetic Bags with Initial, and the Father of the Bride baseball hat...
ANY help would be appreciated!

I'm sure you've already looked...but I thought, just in case their things are still available...
you might these useful...

Good luck, and remember to just be patient with the WCs, and...have fun!
Congratulations! -
Wow...indeed. That really is a stunning dress...if only I were smaller!
Good luck.

Do any of my fellow brides know of a site (either American or Canadian) that carries similar products to those on theknotweddingshop.com AND would allow me to use a Canadian billing address? OR...is there any one of you who would be willling to make arrangments with me to send you the total cost of my order ahead of time, place the order yourselves (using your own method of payment) and then I'll pay for shipping seperately I know this is a big favor...so suggestions for sites would be appreciated.
There are a few things off of the Knot that I REALLY want (and they are so affordable right now)...and cannot find them on any of the Canadian sites I have...but they won't allow me to enter my Canadian billing address...even though I have a friend who was willing to have me ship it to her U.S. address...
Any thoughts? Thanks everyone!

From what I've heard, Micaela does speak and translate a spanish ceremony for you, if you end up with a Spanish speaking Officiant. I've also heard, she does a wonderful job in doing so...she speaks very clearly and slowly!
I'm sure if anything were time pressing, she would get a hold of you.
It's creeping up on us...only a few more months! -

What are some of your questions ... in case I talk to her first! I think I sent you most of mine already! -

I have also ordered dried starfish for our table settings (placecards). I ordered 10, 4-6" sugar starfish, and 10, 1-2" ones for table decoration. I paid $30 using a company called:SHARPE'S TROPICAL SHELLS & GIFTS - B.C. TROPICAL SHELL CO. - TROPITEK TRADING
Being in the U.S. though...you have a lot more options for these kinds of things!
HTH! -
Does anyone know the dimensions of the gazebo...weird question, yes...but...I'm thinking of buying those icicle mini lights for the roof inside...and was wondering how many I would need?
Also...in May...what time does the sun usually set...and what time does it become...less bright out? Our ceremony is at 5 and I'm wondering...would mini lights even show up?...like would you even be able to tell if they were on?

I agree though..it would just be nice if all the coordinators were on the page, as...the miscommunications...as proven with this prime example...can really make or break the day!
