Carole: We are having the 3 hr reccption. During cocktail hr. we will have a guitarist. Since we only have 6 guests, we decided to have an intimate dinner with no music. We won't be doing the traditional dancing, etc. We will be having a huge reception when we return home, which is where all the music and dancing come in..... We may however go to one of the bars after dinner to celebrate with some music and dancing. Thanks lauren for the great review! I will have a review for everyone when we return!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OMG! Guys I'm freaking out... I just looked at the weather forecast and they are predicting rain for everyday that we are there, even my wedding day! I feel like there was so much planning, hard work, and money that went into this, I don't want it to be ruinned! A beach wedding was my dream wedding. I don't want to have gone through all of this trouble to have my dream wedding, and end up having to get married in a building without all the family and friends that I would have had at a local wedding. I don't know what to do, I'm freaking out!!! Every source that I looked at during planning said the same thing: that turks and caicos does not get much rain over the course of a year. What are the odds of having 50% and 60% chances for every day that we are there?

It seems that I have lots of questions, since the date is inching closer (5 days until we leave!)... How did you all travel with your dresses? My airport suggests folding it and placing in the overhead compartment, but I REALLY don't want to smash it. Do you know if there is a steamer on the resort? Even still, I would be scared that my dress would shrink if it would be steamed. Am I crazy?

Hi Viclee, The only music that is included is that they will play pre-recorded (cd, ipod) during your ceremony. These are the only things included in the BB package: Personal wedding consultant Marriage officiant Certified copy of marriage license Picturesque wedding location One 5"x7" wedding photograph Wedding Gift Bouquet and boutonniere Beautiful reception setting Hors d'oeuvres & sparkling wine* Preparation of documentation Caribbean Wedding Cake Continental breakfast in bed Government / Administrative fees** During those 30 min would be when you cut your cake, have the Hors d'oevres and your toast. If you truly want to save money, I suggest not purchasing music and going out to one of the bars after. Hope this helps

Thanks so much, Misti, for your advice! I will take the luggage issue into consideration when packing my carry-on bag. The advice about the Carribean Village was very helpful also. I was a little reluctant to stay there, but I feel more confident now. Congratulations on your wedding! I can't wait to read your review!

Yes, the cocktail hour is included in the three hour reception with hor'dervs (sp?) It is set up as 1 hr for cocktails and hor'dervs and 2 hour dinner/reception. We decided to go with a plated dinner. I actually sent in my dinner menu today. It includes an appetizer, soup or salad, entree, and desert. The 3 hr reception is $75/person. I emailed Brilliant inquiring about prices but they still haven't responded. I have finally paid off the entire wedding, which include a photography package. If I decide to go with Brilliant, I wonder if Beaches will refund my money? This would allow me to have the picture quality that I want, and I could still use the pictures that come with the Vision in White package to cover my ceremony.
