I decided to not go with the soup and added a veg entree instead. I still think its kind of crap that we paid 50 bucks each for the tasting when its an all inclusive place anyway while we were there....highly recommend salmon/beef filet! I was put off too about having to pay for the tasting in an AI place, but when I spoke to Kimberly I told her since we had been there before and ate at every restaurant we werent worried about it, she explained the wedding food doesnt come from their restuarants, I think they have a certain chef they use for the wedding, so I guess thats where the $$ comes into play

One choice?? thats not cool. What about people who dont eat certain things? Like you cant just choose steak and tell everyone who doesnt eat meat to eat it? can you pay extra for more options?

Does anyone know how many actual entree options you get at your reception with the luxury package? I saw someones review a day or 2 or go, and she stated that she only had one dinner entree option, but did not say what package they purchased. Thanks girls.

Its official!! JUNE 19TH 2010!!! At the Royal Cancun. Stoked!!!

Anyone know of a site for bridesmaid poems? Ive checked about 15 different sites and they all have the same 3 poems.

so, Kimberly replied back with the new forms with our correct info on it, the deposit is going out Tuesday. Officially excited! Anyone know of a baker, for wedding cakes in Playa? I had found one posting on here about one with rave reviews, but can no longer find the posting.

Ok so I just got the one in the mail that I ordered, and its way to small..... damn, the larger size I dont really think is going to be that much bigger, there goes that idea.

Thanks! I just ordered one of these to check it out in person as my centerpiece, Turquoise Blue Capiz Lotus Candle Lanterns<div class=sub>(only $7.50 each for 24+) - PC03TU

I know! I am so upset, I was stoked to have all this stuff sent out, still no reply back from her though, however there seems to be some us # attached to the forms, I was considering calling but I dont want to add to the confusion. Well the info is for a wedding at the in Cancun not in PDC, I know most of you are getting married in playa...

sorry for the wrong posting earlier. The link worked they do look nice lit up, well I just ordered it yesterday or the day before I cant remember now, lol. I'll let you know how they look. Thanks for the opinions.

I agree, def' need to see them in person which is why I only ordered one as a tester, and I def' plan on using the battery operated tea lights. This is the one area Ive been stumped in, I HATE flowers, hate hate hate hate them, lol therefor I obvisously do not want flowers as centerpieces. The only thing I do not love about the candle holder is the gold accent, I hate gold too.

So I just recieved the credit form and confirmation form from Kimberly, only its all filled out with someone else's information? I am confused, I just emailed her back but I have a feeling ill be waiting a bit for a response. I thought the info filled out was maybe just to show me which parts I need to fill out?

So I came across these, and Im actually really loving them, I just ordered one so I can check it out in person. As centerpieces, do you think they can work?Turquoise Blue Capiz Lotus Candle Lanterns<div class=sub>(only $7.50 each for 24+) - PC03TU

Thanks girls, I love the idea simply because all my girls know I am OBSESSED with dogeared I order something new every week, so theres actually a real meaning behind it. I can not wait to ask them!

Im a fan of the spray tan as well! I dont get any color naturally, so whenever I have an event I get sprayed. Ill give you a few tricks, buy the cheapest soap possible, bar soap anything but Dove to wash yourself, always put lotion (helps keep it locked in longer) Spray tan really is awesome, but when you sweat it starts to fade and the more you wash yourself...... my gf's and I always laugh 'cause really they say the best way to keep from fading is not to shower, but its like? who doesnt shower? hope you like it.

to ask my gf's to be bridesmaids. I am huge fan of Dogeared jewelry, and they just added a bridal section to theyre site, I just ordered these yesterday for all the bridesmaids and I have my eye on something else for my MOH, but heres the link bridesmaid make a wish necklace with gold dipped mini stone heart on coral : Dogeared Jewels and Gifts

so close!! ok its official (as soon as I get the paper work) were going with June 19th at the Royal in Cancun, just waiting for kimberly to send over the deposit forms however last email she sent stated they will be out of office till the 15th, so Im assuming I wont be getting the forms till then. but so excited!

question about holding your date? Ive been in contact with Kimberly R from the Royals and the last email sent out was to see if there was any avialablity June 19th for both Royals. Granted she says yes we plan to send out 2 checks to hold both properties until we go for our site visit to PDC and decide. Do you know if you can pay by CC? My father gave us a CC to charge all wedding related stuff, so id rather use that then to send a check in the mail and keep my fingers crossed that it makes it there. Has anyone else done this? Or did you all just leave your deposit while @ the property? I know I was talking about May and thats what our engagement annoucements say that we sent out to everyone, However my best friends job schedule is insane and he can not get off until june (my best friend is my brother) so its a big deal. Also does anyone know if they have wheelchairs at the hotel? My father is handicapped and walks on crutches and the property is pretty big so.... I assume if not there must be some sort of rental company? thanks in advance girls.

I mean is it okay for your fiancee to touch a stripper, grab her butt or boobs? I mean i feel like we really don't know what goes on and whatever does happen, its not like we would find out (i dont think), the boys keep to themselves. What is accepatable to you guys? do you plan to tell you guy what you don't want him to do. Is it okay for him to dance/grind on another women? I just don't understand why it seems like guys think its okay to do all this stuff with women on the bachelor party and its okay because its their bachelor party. Any advice or thoughts on what you guys are thinking would be awesome Thanks! same issue here girl, my guy is going to vegas the last weekend in Sept for his bach' party its the closing rehab party that weekend and its insane! he goes every year the same time with his friends for 6 years since weve been together, there were never any issues up until last year when a girl I was on "bad terms" with decided to send me a picture of him dancing with a girl @ a club and I was furious! When I go out he always asks for me just not to involve myself with any guys as far as dancing, so if I can show him that respect and I expect it back! another reason im annoyed with this is who goes for there bachelor party basically 8 months before the wedding!! were from staten island and everyone goes to vegas that weekend from here so this year I think he knows a bit better, plus 5 of my gf's will be there the same time so......I have eyes and ears everywhere! and the reason we dont have a confimed date at the Royal yet is because I wont do it until hes back from his trip, I may sound like a psycho but I told him flat out I find out anything even that he was dancing with a girl again, im ending it. weve had a few issues arise, never cheated on me or anything but hes too much into going to the strip clubs and then he tries to me the one he goes to doesnt do lapdances and I have 2 friends that bartend there and they absolutely do, do them, so it makes me wonder why he lies about that! oo this turned out to be a mini vent! felt good.

so not the typical staten island girl here, and I say that with so much pride. Did you girls look at any venues here before deciding on a DW wedding? My fiance and I looked at 2 places in long branch, nj. Where are you guys getting married? Were deciding on The Royal Cancun or The Royal Playa del carmen.

Any girls from nyc or one of the boroughs? Staten Island here.
