Just voted! you are still in second place!!! Wishing you the best of luck!

Heyyyy, I'm also a date twin! I am debating on having a DJ vs an IPOD. Y must everything be done by the end of February? We still have 5 months to go. I know many of my guests haven't even booked and that is holding me up from doing OOT bags and favors. :/

For some reason I can't see my post. Quote: Originally Posted by DRPrincesa Here's my dress!!!

Wow! I booked back in September but I am wondering if my guests or myself could benefit from this deal??????

I have followed u from start to finish. You have been a great inspiration! Everything looks great and you can see you truly enjoyed your day. dish about the decor and any extra charges. I know that was one of your concerns after the new decor fees came about. Did u have to decorate yourself?

NICE Tori! I love how casual but uniformed the guys are and the girls' are wearing dresses they can def wear again after the wedding! Cute!

Helloooooooooo ladies! I'm from the Bronx! I'm trying to get flights out of JFK under $500. Have you ladies had any luck??? Anywho, happy planning!

Has anyone got married at the Majestic at 1:00pm? If so, what was your schedule of events for the day? My wedding will start at 1:00pm and I have NO idea what to do between the ceremony and dinner at 6:00pm. Thanks for any help in advance!

CONGRATS to you ladies who got married over the weekend!!!! I hope you guys are enjoying Punta Cana!!!

I have booked Tropical Pictures for my August 11, 2012 wedding. Their Facebook has a wide range of pictures. Pictures are important for capturing this special moment but I don't want to pend an arm and a leg for them. I chose a package for $700 and will have friends and family documenting the entire week. I think the $300 for anyone other than PhotoPhil is ridiculous and Phil is not there during my wedding (not that I wanted to spend 2K for pics).SUBMIT

I would love to see pictures as well. Also, What type of private reception did you have?

Heyyyy ladies! I too am going to be a Majestic Colonial bride on August 11, 2012. This is a vow renewal for me so it will be a Symbolic Ceremony with Pastor York officiating! Super excited!

Just ordered 30 from www.godominicanrepublic.com! I was afraid to ask for more. LOL. I'm super excited about them being FREE! Mine should be here by Monday (today's Thursday).

I am having a beach ceremony (although I am deathly afraid of the gawkers) and still deciding if I should have a reception depending on how many ppl are coming.

I plan on sending invitations out in May or June. Still working on something tangible to send out in the next month or 2.

I am sooooo on board with you ladies. It was initially supposed to be just my hubby and I but soooo many ppl kept saying they wanted to join us, soooo I contacted a travel agent, made arrangements and a small down payment (that goes toward my travel at the end) and set up payment arrangements for my many friends and family. Only my immediate family has booked. None of my hubby's family and none of my friends. My thing is...I cannot move forward with OOT bags or anything else, if I do not know how many ppl will be in attendance. 1st payment was due in November, 2nd is due in February. I guess we will see if more ppl pay but this can def be frustrating. I'm trying to keep saying, its all about hubby and I but I know 30 ppl will book in June and then I will only have 2 months to starts finalizing my plans. I was considering doing 25 of everything and that's that! UGH!

I also used pingg.com to send out my save the dates. Very convenient and free. Also wanted to get the info out ASAP so ppl could start booking their arrangements and/or saving. I will send something tangible in a month or so.

I am a Pure Romance consultant in New York! Our in home parties with your girls are SOOOO MUCH FUN! Doesn't have to be a bachelor party, we party with our girl's "just because". Never did I imagine partying and earning money. Way too much fun. LOL

I LOVE your spreadsheet! Super organized. I had most of the same issues with not enough coverage and being out of my price range completely. Also, my resort charges an extra $300 if you do not use their photographer. SMH. I am glad the resort photographer is a lot better than they were a year ago and I decided to go with them. I hope Tropical Pictures doesn't steer me wrong. lol punta cana photographers.xlsx

I love these. I love the supply and price break down. You save A LOT in the end by DIY!

Congrats. Everything looks GREAT! I have seen you on FB and followed you a bit on BDW as well. You seem pretty practical like myself. I too have been with my hubby for upteen years ( this is our 5 yr vow renewal) and we have 2 boys. I got chills reading your story and your pictures clearly reflect your happiness. Thanks for sharing! May your union continue to be blessed!!

Majestic Colonial PLEASE!!!!!!

I am wondering if you purchase the ceremony package, will they use move those decorations to the ceremony for you? Or do you have to buy the reception decoration package as well?

I went to Kleinfeld TOO! About months ago (def went for fun...lol). I like Hared Rock but too expensive fr my guests. You must be from the New York area...where did you finally find your dress?
