    Hello all!  Had my wedding last week and everything was wonderful.  I will post details and reviews in a few days, just busy getting caught up at work now.  Feel free to ask any questions!  I ended up having the ceremony in the gazebo and the reception at el Patio.  One think I recommend is tie clips, the guy's ties were flying all over the place.  Good gift idea!

    Also, were there theme nights/entertainment at PA? Did you go to the 'night club'? If so how was it?

    So excited to hear all of your feedback. How big was your group? we are having a group of 40 and was hoping El Patio wouldn't feel too big and empty if we rented it out. Did you get the extra hour? did you feel like you needed it?

    Thanks for all the great pointers!

    What was the cost to extend the time in the restaurant for 1hr?

    Also did you go with a dj or just bring your own ipod dock?  I am torn on what to do.

     

    I have been searching for the Bubba Kegs but they are all quite expensive when I have to buy 34-40.

    Great Idea with the chips and cookies, I was going to make a Costco run before leaving and bring down some goodies.

    I hear there is a Costco in Cancun, we are going there for the bachelorette parties anyways, so I figured I could pick up stuff on the way. 

  4. I am selling a Maggie Sottero "Geneva" wedding dress in Ivory/Mocha. This dress is a size 4 with alterations made, it was worn once in August 2011. Dress was purchased at Bridal Debut in Sherwood Park.

    It is a Slim A-line, strapless gown with dipped neckline and corset closure. Mikado flowers artfully provide dimension at the banded natural waist and throughout the slim A-line skirt. I also have a ivory veil available which has small flower detailing along the edge which matches perfectly with the dress. 

    I paid $1400 for the dress, $300 in alterations. A bustle was added to the dress along with cups for the bust. This is a beautiful dress which is still on the Maggie Sottero website in the 2013 collection.

  6. Had anyone had their dress taken out? I may need an inch on each side or a panel added to my corset back :(..or lose the weight. haha. So do you all recommended giving it a shot at losing the weight first before altering? Or how long should I wait before I go get an estimate for the alterations?

(Not personalized, just that cute poem "from beach chair to barstool...", background is palm trees/beach   100 postcards- used as welcome letter for OOT bags- will have extras, but we wanted to personalize with our names, so the rest will be wasted unfortunately    10 flat invitations - used as wedding day itinerary for bridesmaids   1 each: notebook, T-shirt, tote bag- personalized them all for my daughter, our flower girl    1 personalized rubber stamp   1 pad personalized sticky notes   All I paid is $10.56 for shipping (Canada). I tried getting free shipping but it kept bumping my postcards up to $18.  Omg you guys have to check it out!  The trick is to order each item in a separate link, they will all add to or shopping cart, but by doing it in separate links, the individual "free" promos work!  I got most of my links here: http://www.weddingwire.com/wedding-forums/is-there-vistaprint-groupon-anywhere/f77a10ea826742ac.html    I am a happy bride right now :)  Kristen 

     

    That's awesome! Thanks for letting me know..I'm from Canada and thought it wasn't possible for us :)

    My wedding is in 2 weeks and we are also doing a buffet option - Jackie never mentioned a 40 people minimum.  Also I took out my cocktail hour.. I figured everyone can go to a bar on their own and in return Jackie is giving me an extra hour for our reception at no charge.  I'll let you know how it works out :)

    Anyone know the charge per head for the buffet option? I can't seem to see it on the pricing list..
