Married or going to be married at Grand Palladium Punta Cana?

[caribbeanLover]

LOL!!!!!!!!

I wish I thought I was going to be like that too. But time just slipt out of my fingers, especially with the time change, completely through my off my rocker!!

 

I just email Carolina actually asking her, if the DJ accepts Ipods to play for our special songs (first dance, garter/bouquet toss) or just cd.

And for the ceremony music, if there is someone that can play our music, as suppos to getting one of my guest to do it. I really just want them to sit and enjoy. Not to have to give them a task, you know!!

You can a vase with a coloured sand, and your new husnand has a vase and different coloured sand, the person who will be doing your reading (you pick the person) will also have a coloured sand (I choose to have Punta Cana sand) the reading person puts their sand down first as the base. Then the wedding couple pour the sands in together, each sand stands for your own life,but when you poured the sands together it's suppose to mean both lifes have been put together, and never can be sepreated like the grains of sand. ................ Pls let me know if you still don't understand, I am sure I can find another way to explain it!

Thanks so much for the explanation! It makes perfect sense now! And including the reading your SIL will do was especially great. That will be a beautiful part of your ceremony!

Thanks so much for the nice compliment, I thought so too, I'm so glad I decided to do it, because the way everyone explains how fast the ceremony goes, I really wanted to make it feel a little personal. With the sand ceremony it does just that

Ohhhh your having your reception at the Jellyfish.. how lucky!!!! I heard it's beautiful and only heard the best reviews. So will you be having a dj and dancing over there instead? If so.. then go for the welcome beach party if it's in your budged. Well I am def not sure about cancellation policy as you only pay when you get there, and there is no contract. You'd best ask Carolina or your TA if your working with one.

Yeah we both have big families and plenty of friends. And our friends know we know how to party...LOL SO we believe we are looking at at least that amount.

Yup, eating and partying at Jellyfish until the wee hours of the morning. Mayte says my date is currently avail I'm just waiting for April so that I can confirm my date with Carolina for July 2011. I'm hoping it won't be a problem since we are purchasing the vow renewal package (doing the do the week before we leave and not telling anyone). We have a friend who will do our symbolic ceremony. From what I've read thus far the main problem with wedding dates and times are the judges' schedules.

you get a 10% discount, however I have long hair way past my shoulders and it was still $120 USD... way over priced but it must be done

[skdoucetanderson@shaw.ca]

Carribean Lover: go to the website renovaspa and choose our resort... they have a price list for EVERY service they provide, and i think it is just a standard rate... they also have rates for trials that can be done 2-3 days befor the wedding... at an added cost... if you are in canada you will have to pay through paypal, as it seemed credit cards were only set up for american payments... very quick reply's from the spa.

[caribbeanLover]

yes the main problems with getting dates is for the judge, so if your just doing a symbolic I def wouldn't worry about that! you'll for sure get which ever date you want.

 

$120!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! just for your hair, OMG I budged at $80. Geez!! so $$$$$

 

Well thanks so much for the info I'll go take a look now!!
