A friend of mine is a makeup artist so she gave me some good quality makeup. Most of it was waterproof and it stayed on all nightQuote:

And I've updated the list again.... we have a lot of new brides!!! Anyone else that needs to be added or removed, PLEASE PM ME! Thanks!!

Ditto to Rachel again. Seriously you're taking the thoughts right out of my head
Friends of mine used our wedding as their honeymoon because they couldn't afford to both since our weddings were within 6 months. So they were celebrating their wedding as well. I think it would have been pretty bridezilla of me to say "you can't show any signs that you're celebrating your marriage while vacationing with us". I think the whole thing just needs to be put into perspective.
-
I love them!!! You did a great job!
-
msmarmar - I did my own makeup but I me and my bridesmaids all got out hair done at the spa at the resort. I didn't end up doing mine the way I wanted because it was soooo windy, but they did a good job.
-
Congrats and
to the forum!! You'll have a resort nailed down in no time! Good luck and happy planning! -

can you tell im pissed for you, lol!!!
as for the one about the friend proposing before the wedding and telling his then FI not to talk about it or wear her ring?!?!? WTF?? what is wrong with guys sometimes? could you imagine if your FI had proposed and said "but honey you can't talk about it or wear your ring till AFTER their wedding"...i would say try again when it's actually ok for me to be engaged!! this kinda highlights what i said before about stealing the thunder of the girl who gets engaged!
Carolina your post made me LOL! There's so much truth in it.... men just don't think sometimes. The bold part especially made me laugh. He probably has such good intentions..... poor guy haha.

Linds, they're amazing!!! Wow, talk about professional

Murmel, I don't know if this helps you but here are some pics of the BBQ beach area from when I was there.
This pic is taken from the beach area towards the resort. You can see the buffet in the background.
Here's a pic taken from the seating area out to the ocean:

Got your PM Murmel! I've added you to the list and I'm in the process of digging up those beach BBQ pics!!

I don't know who was asking about Tiffany or what the story was behind her, but she was my WC and she was dumb as F***. Sorry, but that's the truth. You just have to literally number your questions in your email and then in bold at the bottom write PLEASE ANSWER EACH OF THE NUMBERED QUESTIONS. As a result, she will answer at least 2, but not all. Seriously I thought that chick was going to give me a stroke. -
Ya I totally agree with Rachel. I think that you're worrying about this too much. Besides, you have to remember that your wedding is one day, not the whole week. You're going to be so caught up in your wedding and YOUR special moment that you probably won't even notice that chick. I just think that if he feels its the time to propose you shouldn't stop him. It sounds like a great opportunity for him!Quote:

Sounds like a romantic idea to me. Not everyone can go on vacations all the time, so I think DW brides sometimes have to remember that yes it is all about you, but the people that are going are also making some sacrifices to be there as well. After all, we are all dictating where they go on their vacation and how they are spending their free money.
Anyways, I can understand your point too, but I think a wedding trumps an engagement. I could see people giving their congrats and well wishes, but an all out celebration that overshadows your wedding? I don't see that especially since all the guests are there for YOU.
I guess if that were me on the wedding trip, I wouldn't be gushing to people I don't know really well and fanning my ring all over the place. Actually I'm not really like that anyways, but I can't see a lot of people acting that stupid. I mean- ya, it's exciting to get engaged, but I don't think it's THAT exciting to lose your brain and act like an idiot at someone's wedding. -
WOW Sax Lady! That is for sure going to be a special an overwhelming moment when you guys see each other!! Just think, you're almost there!!
-
Winski - no, not everyone brought their own photog. I hired locally and paid the $500 fee. I'm not sure who the resort works with, possibly still Caribe? I think there's a few threads floating around on them... try a search. I think there was a bride on here that used the hotel photog but I can't remember who it was.
-
I guess it all depends on how important photography is to you. I know that for me there would have been no way in hell I would have even considered that deal, but photography was #1 on my list of wedding priorities. But everyone's priorities are different, so if you're not looking for a specific style and don't feel that you'll be missing anything, then maybe its the right route for you!
If you're looking for a full wedding day of pics plus a TTD, I'm pretty positive that you won't find someone experienced for the price you're looking for, but what if you cut down on the number of hours of photography? That will likely bring you closer to your budget amount.
If you do decide to go with the local guy I recommend showing him what type of photography you like to help him understand how you want your wedding day captured.
Good luck!!

Hi ladies!!
I only went back 2 pages, so I probably missed A LOT, but I did catch Maggie's request to be added to the date list. Congrats Maggie!!
For anyone else wanting to be added to the list PLEASE PM ME!!! That way I won't miss it in the postings
Chong - I didn't wear spanx. I wanted to wear the least amount possible, so I had a corset style back to the dress and had padding sewn right into the dress so I didn't have to wear a bra.

Congrats and
to the forum from a fellow Sensatori bride!!!I highly recommend reading the thread we have. It will answer a ton of questions that you likely have. Also, a quick note about photogs...... check the vendor rules with your WC. I had to pay a $500 fee to hire a photog and I think at one point they were saying no outside vendors allowed. Also, I'm pretty sure that Del Sol doesn't work with any of the Karisma hotels. Just a heads up!
Happy planning!
-
I don't disagree that you are entitled to a refund or for someone to fix them no charge, but to me, my time is also money. It would just be way too inconvenient for me, plus gas money, etc when you already know you're never going back. I personally would just take the loss. And the bonus out of that is that you don't have to be in that awkward position if you're really that worried about it.
-
Julie, just PM'd you.

BAHAHAHAHA talk about complicated eh?!! You don't have to add me, people that aren't my friends on fb have voted. Its MTM photogs that you have to like. Thanks for the vote Linds!!Quote:
