    Hey ladies if anyone is interested in booking for PPC before November 14th, I have a credit of $1025 that I'm selling for $700 that is good towards any room for x amount of people and x amount of days.

     

    I got married last year and had a family member cancel at the last minute.. since the romance dept. doesn't give refunds.. they were kind enough to transfer the credit to the next guest (which they regularly don't do) Inbox me for more details, serious inquiries only.

    Janet, making lists always help me feel less anxious.  But taking some time to relax and turn off the to do list that is constantly running through your head is also advised, dont burn yourself out.  And enjoy the ride!!!  EEEE I am so excited for you!

    Lauren is not an actual wedding planner, but the person in charge of getting the reservations in order and answering questions when it comes to booking, she's the liason between the US and the actual Resorts abroad. Very true - she is not personable at all! she gives yes and no answers, very dry. Theresa I'm assuming helps out the brides from Canada, but you can actually reach out to the romance department at Paradisus, they're great!, it make take some time to get back to you at times but they have been a pleasure working with, Jennifer and Miguelina are in charge at the moment, and answer all pricing questions, menu, decorations, entertainment etc, they will send you numerous attachments and links to their pictures. I would reach out to them better, hope this helps.

    Thank you so much for your replys!

     

    I was actually getting very turned off with PPC because of Lauren until I started reading what everyone has posted. I feel like I write to Lauren and it takes forever to get a reply. I'm def going to contact Teresa, I've fallen in love with the resort but want to feel comfortable with the planner.

     

    I'm very happy I found this website! Reading all the info being posted has made very excited to have the wedding at PPC.

     

    Katherine congrats!!!!!!!! I hope you have an amazing experience and wedding day cheer2.gif

     

    Thank you so much ladies!!!!

    The club is called the "Red Lounge" it's actually the Restaurant "Fuego" in the day time, very nice!! and it has like 6 cabanas inside making it very exclusive and posh, the dance floor is circular and fits like 30 people, it's very decent. not everyone goes, good spot for you and your guests, that's where we're going to end up after our reception is over.

(although everyone was soaked, I sure hope it doesnt rain on our day...)

     

    We also went with A la carte for the beach ceremony at 3pm.  Then we are having our reception on La Barcaza from 5-8 and back to the nightclub at Paradisus afterwards.

     

    Speaking of the nightclub. Does anyone know what its called at PPC?  I wonder how big it is and if we are just going to take it over! lol.

    I didn't catch your pics of your favors or decorations.  What did you do for decorations?  I started my poms this weekend, and I am mighty impressed.  I have to order my flowers too (going to try and do my own bouquets).  I figure if I try early enough, I can always just go with the resort ones and pay the extra money.

    How about ordering the MOH's dress in an accent color? if not then, maybe with her bouquet or the ribbon on them, different jewelry from the BM, or maybe she wears a flower on her hair and not the BM? it can happen any way you like :)

     

    Very pretty dress and a great price, what color are they wearing?
