I am a professional designer, so I am designing the passes and getting them printed. I bought magnets sheets (8.5 x 11) with an adhesive backing online. I will merge them then cut them to size. Some people might think 11months is to early ,but in this econmy you can never plan to early. -

TA or Not... I read a lot of reports on Trip Advisory where TA’s promised things that resort didn’t follow through on. I get a tad bit anal when dealing with multiple people, “He Said” “She Said”. I like dealing straight with the resorts. It allows me to fully understand where things are at. However with that being said.... My wedding is going to be rather simple in regards to the fact that everyone is flying in and out of the same airports. So the booking shouldn’t be that complex. With Aventure Cove the hotel is setting me up with a private link that guests can link through and book. This way everyone will be tracked under my name and I can see who is booked. I really see no need for a TA for my situation. Now if I was having a rather large international wedding I would going through a TA strictly because I do not know the rules and regulations of multi countries. -

I probably would want to start crying ,but on the positive side it makes for a great ,funny story after the fact that you can tell your kids. Thank for the pic! My little niece is gonna go nuts over the horses. I wonder if you can do beach horse back ridding...probably not with those, they look big. Anywas..you look happy and beautiful in the photo even with the ripped veil. -
Hmm... Well thanks so much for posting your question. I must live under a rock in Wisconsin because I have never heard about doing this before today. I think its a wonderful idea. Do they have professional photographers that specialize in this all over? Or just in Trendy place like LA and Miami. Probably in Chicago and thats near by. Someone said they did theirs on there destination wedding. That wouldnt be a bad idea if they had a good photogapher in the Cancun Area.

Crazy I am having mine in Milwaukee of June 2011. I was going to rent a tent or something and have it at a big park outside of the city.

The following attachment is from a women I am working with at ASP. It is in regards to guest pricing and booking for 2011. I wanted to know how to reserve all guest rooms in a block instead of just randomly. I thought someone on here might find it useful. Jan 4-Apr 302011.doc -

Nam or anyone else that has had Del Sol - I know you had Del Sol. I believe you had Vincint and Sol. Did you book both or Did one just show up? I was wondering how they decide who you photogher's assistant is. Did you meet with them the day before the wedding to go over stuf Has anyone booked the marachi band at ASP? Is it worth the money? Also how are the fireworks? -

Hi Nam, Your photos inspired me to book Del Sol for my wedding at the Aventure Spa. They are just amazing. Your photos capture so much emotion. I think we are booking Vincent. -
Thanks for all the great words. I have already found a photographer on this site, and am using the Boarding pass idea for the STD's. I really hate reinventing the wheel, so this is amazing.
