Depending on your group and what's available, karaoke is always fun option.

Welcome fellow Canadian! I'm just starting the planning too and found the reviews on here really really helpful.

Thanks for the great review! Your pictures are great and you looked very beautiful! You've made me rethink Jamaica for our DW options!

My advice would be to keep planning, keep your guests informed and don't let panic set in. There are several factors here that need to be realized before going into a full blown panic about the possbility of a global pandemic. First, the media doesn't always get it right and sometimes causes even more panic in an attempt to provide the facts. Second, its too early to tell what kind of flu virus this really is. Many health professionals are saying it could be very much like a seasonal flu but more analysis is needed before making that decision. And finally, the mexican health care system is not like the ones in Canada, europe and the states. They don't have the ability to track and monitor all cases appropriately so the statistics just aren't there to say this perticular flu has a 10% death rate. It's actually probably closer to .001%. Keep positive ladies!

I like #5 the best also. But #6 could be really nice to if you make the dots a lot smaller, around 0.25 pt. I would also suggest getting rid of the black line around the pink letter to see how it looks. It may make softer but it could also take away from it to. Either way you should be very pleases with yourself! You did a great job!

Ok, here's my comparison chart. This may help others who are still in the deciding phase so feel free to download and modify. It's nothing spectacular, just a comparison of potential family friendly AI resorts in my preferred destinations. Enjoy. DW__Location_Comparison.doc

I can look for those and post them up as well. Thanks! That would be great. Maybe nerd is the wrong word...overly organized??

Hi! Has anyone created a comparison chart to review potential DW locations? Maybe I'm a total nerd, but I'm in the process of starting one to help make our decision a little easier and I thought I'd check here first to see if anyone else has done this... If not, once I'm done I'll post the file for other newbies to check out! I'm going to compare top hotels for Jamaica, Mexico and DR...This might take a while....

Congratulations, fellow newbie! I'm sure you're wedding will be amazing, I love Cuba! Heather

Hello Everyone! I just found this forum the other day and the information is incredible! I'm in the early early stages of planning but I'm looking forward to all the advice that's on here. My name is Heather and my Fiance Grant and I are planning on getting married somewhere warm, sometime in the near future... how's that for early planner! I'm thinking Playa Fiesta in Puerto Vallarta based on the awesome reviews and pics I've seen. We're moving into our new home at the end of May and then I'll be doing some more intense planning after that since we'll be able to focus on the wedding. That's it from me for now. Cheers. Heather
