I have a good one, I went to a wedding last year with my FI...7 hours away from where we live.On the invitation it said the ceremony was set to start at 11am so of course we got there about 10:30 to get a seat and get settled before it began. It started off a bit strange because we were literally sitting in a hallway for the ceremony, outside of the ballroom. Anyway, we sat there, and sat there and sat there (meanwhile the grooms side of the family has filled their section and there is almost no one in the brides section). Than the wedding coordinator comes walking down the aisle, grabs the mic and goes "Alright, the wedding will begin at noon, we lied on the invitations so ya'll wouldn't be late" really....I was like you have got to be kidding me...so fast forward and it's like 12:15 and the ceremony hasn't started yet and most of us had been sitting there for almost 2 hours and the musicians they had hired have been playing the same songs for at least the last hour. Poor bride though, her Dad had an issue with his tux so that was why it was further delayed. FINALLY the ceremony begins and she is walking down the aisle and half of her relatives are sneaking in to get chairs..apparently someone told them it didn't really start till noon. OMG...but it's not over. We go to the ballroom for the reception...where we all wait for another 45 minutes for the bride, groom and bridal party to come. After they arrive and everyone is starving they do all their normal bride and groom stuff the servers literally throw this really gross food at us, no alcohol and it's over. Whole reception was maybe 45 minutes. By far worst wedding I've been to!

Thanks so much Tylersgirl! Great picture :-)

Hi Everyone, I just got an email from the wedding coordinator at RPRM, my wedding is April 27th 2009 one of the location options for the ceremony is the "Kiosk Area" I was wondering if anyone here knew where that was, if it's indoors or what it looks like? Thanks!

So I have to say I'm full agreement, def one of my new favorite "reality" shows! It is absolutely fabulous!

Thanks for the email address!

Hi! I was wondering if any of you girls know the answer to my question. I want to book the Classic package at Riu Palace RM, however that package is for 10 guests and after doing a head count we may be closer to twenty. Can I get the Classic package and than pay for the extra guests? If so does anyone know how much that would be? The next package up is for 50 people and I will be no where near that, plus there are a lot of amenities that we just wouldn't use. Thanks Andrea

Hi I'm a Filipino bride and I think we are going to try to incorporate the veil, chord and coins into our wedding, but I still need to talk to my WC to see if that is possible. One of my friends who is also Filipino and got married on the beach incorporated the veil and chord into their ceremony and it worked well! Where are you getting married?
