Hello Ladies!! 20 days til I leave for Cancun, 24 days until I say I do.
I haven't been able to post much and am catching up on your post. It's so amazing at most we thought we would have 50 guest. Well as of last week we are at 118 guest and 37 rooms with 4 more rooms booked this week. I qualified for the free events am only doing a welcome reception Thurs, Rehearsal Dinner Friday, maybe breakfast with the ladies Sat morning (still deciding), and the ceremony Sat 5pm at Chapel Gazebo, cocktail hr Chapel Garden, Reception indoors in Nizuc lobby ballroom.
A couple of questions for you ladies.
OOT-bags--- my contract person in MIA (Katherine) who is AWESOME!!! recommended to not ship anything because 75% of things never make it she said. Needless to say bringing 120 of each and everything is going to be a hassle and I'm sure a real adventure to get thru customs. Any recommendations?? I heard someone say to pack receipts I will definitely do that.
Flowers-----I'm getting the rose bouquet included in the complimentary package and I have asked to buy 10 gold, 10 orange, 10 mini gold, and 10 mini orange loose calla lillies the only thing they are offering is to paint them? What gives Can they not get the flowers. One of my BM's works as a florist so wants to doctor the things up ourselves instead of paying their enormous prices.
TinaM2b- I think it was you who mentioned being able to mix and match some of the menu items. I just got a response from my WC that I had to choose one or the other. I was trying to combine some of the hors d'ouevres from Intl 1 and Intl 2 list and she told me I couldn't? Gonna push definitely.
I think that's it for now. We are staying at MP Tues-Sun and checking in Sun Palace away from our enormous party Sun-Tuesday.
