Hi Carrie, I've just joined this website and am looking to connect with Aruba brides. We are hoping to get married in Aruba October 2011. Our first choice is also the Renissance. I love the thought of the private island. I wasn't sure by your post if you were getting married this past September or in 2011. Anyways, if you have made any decisions or have any advice about Aruba, I'd love to connect. I've ordered some books from the library and have done some searching on the internet. I am super excited about Aruba for our destination wedding! I am currently getting pricing from our travel company and am keeping fingers crossed that it will be in our price range. Cheers, Jenn
