  1. We are giving one bag per couple and if you arent apartof a couple then you get a bag to yourself. The bags for could will have duplicates of a couple things. We have spent about $26 per bag as of now with a couple more things needed to be bought....So i would say it will probably be around $40 per bag.
  2. The bags are soo tiny!! haha I bought them thinking they would be great and I got them and they are sooo tiny...I guess I should have looked at the dimensions! Super cute though...I am going to fill them with goodies and put them inside my real OOT bag!
  3. Thanks for the great info! I was going to spend a lot of money on sunscreen for guests, but youre right they will already have it with them so why waste the money!! Thanks!
  4. EmmaLou - Honestly I started reading reviews on Trip Advisor before I picked my location....RMB is rated 19 out of 61 hotels in Montego Bay...So I figured it was pretty good...I have read a ton of bad reviews but I have also read a ton of good reviews...It got to a point where I had to stop looking at the reviews because I picked RMB and didnt care what everyone else had to say...I think its what you make it..I read reviews where people are like "Who cares..its not 5 star but its Jamaica..you have fun" For me...I dont really think I'm a 5star type of person anyways..lol...I am ok with middle of the road, make your own fun type of place...The one good thing I took away from the reviews is where people said "if you go looking to find bad things with a place you will" So I stopped looking at reviews and I am going with an open mind and just a mind set that I know everything wont be perfect and I'm ok with that!! But I know where you are coming from...i was nervous at first too!! Below are a couple of things I ordered off save on crafts...The fans I am going to put on everyones chair for the ceremony...They can fan themselves if they are hot...I heard it was pretty windy anyways..but I thought they were cute so I ordered a sample...Also...I will be carrying White callalillies but I thought to get some color in I would have my girls carry another color....I think I like the one all fo the way to the right but my next step is to hold them against the girls dresses...The dress color is called Oasis...Its like a turquoise color...I think my colors will be turquoise and pink! What do you guys think? I think they look and feel so real!!
  5. Welcome Kerbear! Let me know if you have any questions! The only thing i still have not thought about and dont really know where to begin with is what we are going to do after dinner..Do we rent out the disco or not...the other thing is music...i just dont know about any of that! We have not booked out flights yet...we are flying out of Vermont and US Air and Jet Blue are the only airelines that fly to Jamaica...Jet blue just came out with their prices at the beginning of November adn they were $732 per person..Our travel agent tells us they are gonna go down...which i just checked today and they are now $690...so i guess they are inching down...I would like them to be around $500...so i will wait a couple mroe weeks and see what happens! Our ceremony is at 4 too and I have also heard that...some people say to def use a microphone and its much betrter...soo we'lll see... Emmalou your flowers look great...i think they are perfect for a tropical wedding...I just ordered a couple calla lilly samples from save-on-crafts..they should be here anyday...I want to see if I even like them..SO i just ordered a couple!
  6. I havent even started thinking about wedding songs yet! I have no idea what I want played when! Thats def going to be a tough part... I just started looking for "fake" flowers and I have found a ton of places...I just searched in google for Natural Touch Flowers...they look so real...I think what I am going to do is order a sample one from the site www.save-on-crafts.com because they are cheap..Some of the websites that I found have natural touch flowers but they are sooo expensive!! I am going to use Cala Lilies, I havent decided on which color yet though. I guess we will see after I get the samples in.
  7. Yes Christina Dunbar has been helping me along with NeKeisha...Although I havent heard from Nekeisha since the very beginning....Not sure if she is still there. Christina seems to reply to my messages fairly quickly...It was one thing i was worried about after hearing from the other girls on thsi site...Burt so far so good!
  8. I looked at your website, it looks awesome!! I should make one, Ill have to find the time first! :-) I will have to check into Stacey Clarke photography..All we have looked at is Michael (who is at the resort) and its really expensive..I want to do TTD the next day too!! Everyone that does it loves it and the pics look GREAT!! My travel agent is the one that is doing the whole every 10th, 11th is free...I am sure its the resort telling her that...basically we have 21 people books, so 2 people get it for free...My FI and I are taking the free rooms since we are spending so much on everyone else and it would be impossible to pick someone out of all our guests to get free rooms!! They take the average for the room type and how many days...So say a little over half your guests booked 5 days at a garden view and a little under half booked 7 days at an ocean front, you would get the average...so it would be 5 days free with a garden view room...Actually its kind of hard to explain typing...I hope you understand As of right now we are booked for a garden view room and hoping we get upgraded...if not, no biggie...the room is the least of my worries! My travel agent said that they usually do but dont actually count on it because sometimes they are too booked...so i guess we will see...We are staying for 10 days therefore since we have 21 peopple booked we both get our first 5 nights for free! Also - I saw you write on another blog about the sky lanters...i want to do that soooo badly!! Did you ever hear back from them??
  9. My plans are coming along..We are not doing a big wedding...So I sent a packet with all of the information to those who are coming back in June and they had to book my mid August too...its mostly immediate family and some close friends so we didnt really have to be too formal about it. but we are having an AHR in July which we are sending STD's next week and invite sometime in the spring!
