How to remind guests to book their room
jandl2013 replied to shelleyanderic's topic in Wedding Etiquette, Traditions, to dos
I thought I was making things easier, but lesson learned. Next time I do any kind of event similar to this, I will take all stress off myself and tell everyone to book on their own and move on with life. Way too stressful when you're dealing with a lot of people. But I definitely have the same attitude as you, you're invited so the rest is up to you cause we'll be walking down that aisle PERIOD! Even if it's just us and our parents! lol -
To registry or not to registry??
jandl2013 replied to beachbum21's topic in Wedding Etiquette, Traditions, to dos
This is so true! I wasn't going to register, but we kept getting asked over and over so we just caved in and did a traditional registry at Macy's for a few things we like, and we did a non-traditional registry for honeymoon/house down payment with Honeyfund.com. We just wanted to avoid getting a bunch of things we truly don't need at all since we combined 2 houses. We did state on our website and save the date insert that gifts were not necessary and their presence was more than a gift. So we covered all the bases so we could stop all of the questions. -
Jellyfish Crazy Hour Show
jandl2013 replied to Kaiden1215's topic in Destination Weddings in Dominican Republic
I believe the price is between $800 to $850 so I think you have it right. I thought that's the price I was told when I had my site visit back in September.- 2 replies

jandl2013 replied to shelleyanderic's topic in Wedding Etiquette, Traditions, to dos
It is really crazy to read this whole thread and realize that so many people can be so inconsiderate, and so many of us are having this negative experience while trying to plan a special event? I just don't get it. We are getting married 5/23/14. I sent out the save the dates magnets with our website in late September and the invitations were sent out in late October which also included our website again. I asked people to RSVP their intent by December 1, hoping that the stragglers would at least get moving by this month and pay their deposits. Out of the 110 invitations that we sent out, -

Very true Deep!! People claim they are coming but as soon as it's time to pay...they complain about the cost in our case. -
We just brought a new HP 8600 all in one printer because i'm tired of paying money to print my documents, etc. I used to print a lot of stuff at work, but since that's not an option anymore, I've been printing at Staples, Office Depot, Vista Print, and FedEx. I'm tired of paying those fees so i'm hoping that this printer can do it all. Once I get a small DIY completed, I'll update on it's performance.

With that said it occurred to me that most of you will want to give her some sort of gratuity that is just for her however, that will not happen if you do not give it to her directly because others will pocket the money.
