Thanks Tammy.

I just booked with my TA, and afterwards went online to DD. I was astounded by the difference in price, and began to get a little upset. Thank you for affirming my decision to go with a TA.

Neen,

You are a rockstar! Thank you for answering a lot of questions for us. Having found out that we can bring our own bows for the chairs was a real winner for me. Also, the tiip regarding the hairstylist Angelina.

thank you again.

thank you for for responding to my questions. I met with my TA today and I am really starting to kind of relax. This site has been phenomenal during this process. You guys are all great.

Elizabeth Medina does wonderful work. I wish that I could have her for my wedding.

Congrats on your award SunBride. You are definitely deserving of it. BlKatz I'm glad you got your confirmation number, because I think I would be freakin out too,if I hadn't received it.

Nobody ever answered my question about the bows. I am purchasing the dreams of love package. If you choose to have bows on the chairs at the ceremony, do you have to pay to have them at the reception as well?

Also,for those of you who are using the resort photographer, does anyone know how long he will shoot if you purchase additional pictures?

I am really battling with myself about whether or not to use the resort photographer or get my own. Does anybody know if you are reimbursed or given the difference you would pay for photography if you bring your own? I would hate to pay for a service I am not going to receive. How does this work?

Monica,

Your pics were absolutely gorgeous. You made a beautiful beach bride.

Do you have Cecilia's info? I would love to see more of her work.

thanks

Hey girls,

Thanks to SGBrown, I realized I have a typo on my introductory post. I originally Posted my wedding date as May 9, 2009 but it is really May 5, 2009 at 5:00 p.m. (ooops)

Thanks SunBride. After reading your e-mail I did post in the newbie section as well.

I think I have read practically all of the 100 plus pages of posts on this site, and I do have the 2008-2009 wedding guide. However, I do still have a couple of questions that have yet to be answered. First, I know that chair covers and bows are included in the dreams of love package for the ceremony, but is there an additional charge for the bows on the chairs during the reception? If so, how much is that? Second, the new wedding guide states that if there is going to be music and dancing during the recpetion, they must take place in the ballroom. But, I've seen a lot of '09 brides who say they are having their reception at one of the restaurants or on the beach. Are they not having music or did I miss something? Finally, was everyone pleased with the stylists in the salon?
