  1. They look great venus909! I do not think I would have the patience for it so they would look horrible in the end. I am impressed that you glued on all those crystals and they look so professional all the way around!
  2. Lol. I love the term hair mustache and I can picture it in my mind! Thank you for the review. I have really taken to heart what other brides have posted on this thread and appreciate when more brides post here. I think it is extremely helpful. Congratulations!
  3. Ligthweight is definitely a must! I love Pronovias but ended up a Casablanca bride. You just never know which dress is the one!
  4. OMG! It is so funny that you mentioned the walkie talkies as my FI was wanting to buy some at Target last week! I will have to tell him that you recommend them. He is pretty much looking for any excuse to buy them!
  5. Joanne, Avens, DanandJamie, you all made beautiful brides! I am so happy that we chose Barcelo. We were torn originally on which resort to choose and even though we are still a few weeks away, I think we made a great choice. Your amazing photos only emphasize that! Congratulations to all of you!
  6. I think this is a lovely gown! And you don't look like a mess!
  7. Beautiful JayKay! Love it and cannot wait to use it in my bouquet!
  8. Holls213, I am getting married February 11th and my WC has made the appointment for me already. She has also scheduled my mani/pedi and massage.
  9. How was your special day JayKay? Please post pics soon!
  10. kisekae, there is a Wal-Mart near Playa del Carmen and I have seen flameless candles at Wal-Mart's in the US. There is a gift shop at Barcelo and other brides have purchased maracas there for a reasonable price.
  11. Thanks! We are excited! It finally seems real to me after all this planning!
  12. AudEv2012, we are going with Erick Rodriguez from Claudia Rodriguez photography - he is actually her brother. Claudia was already booked for our wedding day. We will be posting a review after our wedding.
  13. Yes, but I have my dress and it is sitting in my closet now. I think I should wear it everyday but worry that I might ruin it.
  14. Congrats! That is so awesome! What an inspiration to the rest of us. Thanks for helping to motivate me!
  15. ANGELA2013, your WC can send you additional photos of flowers that the florist can put together for you. We went to a local florist, found flowers we liked and put together our own bouquet. We sent pictures to our WC and she checked with the florist who said that they could do those for us. Orchids, calla lilies and peonies are extra but anything else you want is included in your package. Congrats and good luck!
  16. Congratulations Hrcahill! Sorry but I do not know anything about the Mariachi Grill. Have you been to the Unofficial Barcelo site to find any information there regarding it? Also, I would ask your WC about moving your reception up a bit but it depends on how many pictures you plan to take after the wedding. Our wedding is at 4:00 as well and figure it will last about 25 minutes or so as we will do the sand ceremony and have a reading. We will take pictures with family, our guests and wedding party then some pictures on our own before and during sunset. Our reception is scheduled for 6:30. Our ceremony is at Coral Beach and our reception is at Playa Azul. We were planning to send our guests to the Carey Bar in the Palace before heading down to the reception. We were planning to bring down some decorations for table tops but decided to just have floral center pieces (we are only having three tables so need to only pay for two) and do no want to have to haul down any decorations or haul them back. We are bringing our iPod Touch for the reception music rather than paying for a DJ. Again congrats and you will find lots of help here!
  17. I have the portion control under control - so to speak! Lots of fresh fruits and veggies. I just need to find the time to hit the gym. I have been working 10-12 hour days and it is just wearing me out and making it difficult to find the time and energy to exercise. Ugh.
  18. I love the floral strap. That is perfect for a destination wedding!
  19. Oh my gosh bondgirl0072010 they are so similar to the ones you made! I am keeping them hidden from my bridesmaids until the wedding to give them as part of their gifts. I am sure they will love them as much as I do! One month to go!!! I will post pics when I get back!
  20. Good question! I think we will ask one of the groomsmen to do that. What is everyone else doing?
  21. I am not sure what chair options they have available. Did you ask Claudia to send you photos of all the options? Lillian told me the same thing about guests staying at lower end hotels at the resort did not have to pay to attend a Palace wedding or reception.
