  1. I'm going to a spa & salon in my town 2 months before my wedding and they are coming up with a "look" for me and teaching me how to do it in the spa & salon. My plan is to then practice my make up several times and then plan to do my own make up the day of my wedding. I do want a natural look for my wedding as I rarely wear make up and I don't want to chance the chance my skin breaks out from the make up that they use at the hotel or that I don't like their styles.
  2. Hi Terilina, Â I'll definitely post any information that I find along the way, sometimes it can be hard to find details so anything I can do to help others out. As of right now, this is the process I've gone through: - I confirmed the date & time of the wedding with Yoselina for Jan 11 @ 4pm - completed the form she gave me which had questions about flowers (tropical), cake (vanilla), music (trio), restaurant (steak house), photographer package (no), # of guests (45) Â For the ceremony I'm using the trio because I thought it would be nice to have more of a local feel since we are doing a destination wedding, then for the reception & meal I will be bringing my own playlists with ipod & docking station (many brides on this forum had recommended the bose system as the best for outside use). Now I still have to figure out the logistics of the dance with Yoselina but I was hoping that if I reserve the whole restaurant we can use that & surrounding area for our party. Unfortunately cause I will have several kids under 16 I can't use the disco cause they wouldn't be allowed in and we want to include them in the party. Yoselina said they do have a spot which we can use for the first dance, but I need to clarify this further with her about what that would look like. Â Â Â That's good to know about the cake, I hadn't even thought about sending a picture & having them make it, but I'll definitely try it. Honestly I'm not too picky about the cake, flowers, decorations, but the lanterns is definitely a good idea, especially if they're battery powered. Â And Finally the photographer, I had requested information from Caribbean Emotions but have yet to hear anything back from them, I have received info back from the other place, Jorge Allocco (information attached). Have you checked with Yoselina yet about bringing in an outside photographer? I heard a few people mention that they had to pay the hotel an additional fee cause they weren't using the hotel photographer... Â Â JorgeAllocco Photographer Prices.pdf
  3. Hey Ladies, I'm getting married on January 11, 2011 at the Iberostar Dominicana & we're having approx 35-45 ppl with us (incl several kids under 16). I'm thinking of taking to Yoselina about the possibility of reserving the restaurant & getting a place where we can have our dance/party without having to use the disco (the kinds under 16 wont be allowed into the Disco). I've heard a number of brides have used an ipod with playlists & bring your own speaker docking station. Â As far as other decisions go, I filled out the form that Yoselina sent with choices & am looking into what to use for photography, are you going to hire a photographer? & if so, are you going to use the hotel photographer?
  4. I am getting married at the Iberostar Dominicana in January 2011, for those of you who have gotten married at either the Dominicana or Punta Cana, would you please mind letting me know what you did for your reception/dance (we have underage kids coming & dont want to move our party into the Disco - which the kids aren't old enough to go to). Also, did you use the resort photographer?? Our wedding is at 4pm & we have dinner booked at the steak house at 7pm - I'm thinking of reserving the whole restaurant- but we aren't 100% we will have enough people.
