Thanks Girls. I will look at your pics Meg!

HI LADIES!!! My Fiance and I came across the JELLYFISH Restaurant, located on Bavaro Beach in Punta cana. Our date is July 21st, 2012! this place is situated between the Melia Caribe and IFA Villa resorts. I have read soooo many positive reviews on it and we are so excited to be having our entire wedding there..literally from beginning to end. We are about to book at the Excellence Resorts in Punta Cana. I like the fact that it is a smaller resort, and that it is adults only. There are going to be between 35-60 guests at our wedding (including the wedding party). The jellyfish provided transportation for each guest to and from the resort. I believe it is only $8 pp roundtrip. Im curious to know if anyone out there has had there wedding at the Jellyfish Restaurant? I would love to see pictures ) Trying to get an idea of Decor, wedding colors.. so far i think i want to stay true to the environment.. and stick with the pale pinks, creams and powdery/silvery aqua's...maybe sea shells and starfish and lots of candles. Also need ideas on wedding favors.. DJ... Im not 100% with my photographer.. I like caribbean emotions so far.. but i am open to looking at other reccomendations.. Please HELP!! ) thanks girls -Lauren from NYC

Hi Ladies! Wow- this site is so informative! I have gotten such great ideas from all of my fellow Destination Brides on here! I have been in contact with Mayte for almost a month now. I have reserved my date for Sat, July 21st 2012 I am waiting to book my resort until after labor day, since the flights are not in for next summer just yet. How are some of you girls booking? through a TA or other websites? Do you think it would be cheaper in the long run if i booked the hotel and flight separately? We are looking at the Excellence Resort in Punta Cana and the Majestic Elegance. I got alot of really good feedback from "Debbies Caribbean Vacation" website. Both resorts are fantastic. I like the Excellence because it is a smaller resort and it is adults only. I am also stumped on wedding colors and decor for my reception. I think we may stick with the beachy theme.. with the powdery blues, creams, silvers... i like the idea of the sea shells, starfish and lanterns. Mayte does a beautiful job with the set up. She told me to just send her as many pictures of what i want, so that way she has an idea of what we are going for. I am also stumped with flowers.. i always envisioned my bouquet being cream colored roses and possibly some gardenias.. not sure what to do for my bridesmaids yet. what are some of you doing for wedding favors? i like the idea of a candle, i saw online a soy coconut candle inside an actual shell of a coconut. who doesnt like candles?? lol Not sure if it is too cliche.. maybe some of you can give me a few ideas on the topic. I have been to Punta Cana about 7 times! and i cannot believe i am now going to be getting married there! it really is surreal. Cant wait to hear from all you girls and your experiences!
