Everything looked so beautiful!! I can't wait for my wedding! I am getting married at DT also and was thinking about having my reception by the adult pool. Was there enough lighting after dark and do you remember if the pool lights up?

Carmen, I am thinking about using paper lanterns as well. I think that 15 is enough, I don't think I have heard anyone actually using 20-30. I haven't read much about the LED lights and I don't remember if anyone has mentioned buying them.

Hi ladies, does anyone know if children need to pay for day passes? I have one family that has decided to stay in cancun instead of DT. They have two kids, 2 and 4, and need to know if they need to also pay for day passes.

i get a free room after 25 rooms are booked with my ta. At the moment, i think i may miss that requirement by 3 rooms!!!!! In addition to that, my vip guests (moh, bm, etc.) can get free upgrades.

Congratulations!! I am also getting married at DT!

Thanks, Sunbride for taking the time to post all those pictures!

i can go on about the terrible service at david's bridal as well! I couldn't get out of that store fast enough! As for my alterations, my bridal shop charges about $250 flat for all alterations.

Please let me know what you think when you receive your order. thanks!

haha....it happens!

awesome!!! I work in the financial district so may be i can go one day after work or on a saturday!! I'm also a touchy consumer so I was having a hard time ordering anything online. Do you know if they have any linens or overlays??

I must say that I love the bm's dresses!! I am having my girls wear blue also and am planning on using bright pink flowers. I say go with the diamond scheme....maybe they can change the sash color though??

We're doing pink and green parasols & handfans and large white parasol for us, and the same colors for chair wraps (only 6 chairs) Maybe the same green pink and white on the arbor. would love to see some photos of what other people did:) Thanks Check out the general forum under decorations, etc. You might be able to find some ideas there. You can also try theknot.com or brides.com. HTH

I'm interested in the blue card stock and the solid blue ribbon. I'm in New Jersey zip code is 07302. Let me know how much the shipping is.

Love the bags!! Did your mom sew the logos on by hand or did she use a sewing machine??

I plan to have my girls where blue (like pool or sky blue) dresses and want them to carry bouquets of bright pink or fuschia flowers. You can take a look at theknot.com for ideas since they have tons of pictures. HTH

I started looking into a suit for my FI and saw some at Mens Warehouse. I think some girls have also gone to Banana Republic.

what size are they?

I definitely prefer the live music for the ceremony also. I had emailed Landy about what songs the guitarist and violinst play, but she said they are outside providers so she had no idea. Have any past brides used either of these musicians and what songs did they play or did you request?

We are going to use the mexican trio for the cocktail hour since they are part of the package. I am also considering using the guitarist or violinst for the ceremony, but I don't know if either will be heard over the sound of the ocean and wind. Why don't you make a playlist on your ipod and use that for the cocktail hour? You won't need to create an extensive list since it will only be played for a short time. Which DJ did you hire? I am still thinking about using one, right now we are planning on using our ipod.

Amy Well I already sent out my invitations and didn't mention the excursion on them. I can only do this if 40-45 guests go, anymore than that and I think it will be out of my budget. I also haven't announced it to any guests in case I can't afford to do it. Once I get a good idea of how many people are going then I will start to spread the news.

MnM2Mexico and AmyandRich - We are also planning a catamaran/snorkeling excursion but haven't finalized anything since we really have no clue as to how many people are actually coming to our wedding. I know that one of the past brides used a company which I am pretty sure is listed on page 1 here. I don't think she paid too much for it. If you find any good vendors, please let me know! I will do the same. Thanks

I am interested if you still need someone to fill a spot. Please let me know! I also am interested in the Feb shoot if this one is full. Thanks!

I would love to be part of this!! My wedding is April 24th, but leave to Mexico on the April 21st so I would definitely need the pics before that date. One question...did her price go up?? I thought some girls did this a few months back and only paid about $300 each. Please keep me posted about a possible shoot date!! Here's my email address [email protected]

Beatiful pictures! Congratulations By the way, what type of flowers are in your bridesmaid's bouquets? They are very pretty.

Congrats Shannon! Does anyone know if the WC does the official introduction of "mr. and mrs. ..." at the reception? Or does the dj or a guest do it?
