An Update on Ann's Gift


Christine

Recommended Posts

Just wanted to let you all know that after much chit chat and seeing all your comments in the donation thread, the mods and I decided much against our tradition of just giving people money Ann's situation qualified as a special circumstance.

 

We had planned on a Visa Gift card but a couple of people mentioned that those can be a pain in the rear sometimes to deal with and also because getting mail to Ann in the next couple of days might be difficult I wound up sending her your donations via paypal.

 

I hope you are all okay with that and understand why that was the best thing to do for Ann and Paul and of course little Gwen.

 

Lastly, let me tell you girls are the most generous people on this planet, I cannot even believe the amount of support and love you all have given over the last week since Ann went to the hospital. I know that her and Paul appreciate your support more than you all can ever know.

 

Anyway-that's the story and I have told Ann that she must provide more pictures in return for the gift!!!

I really think this is the best plan, since Ann & Paul have most of the "supplies" they need. Their biggest issue is housing and food for the next month. I think this is the way we can help them the most, and I know they're responsible and will put it to good use :)

 

Thank you all for your overwhelming generosity. It truly is amazing how this simple destination wedding forum is filled with many people I consider closer than many of my "real" friends...

    • Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!
    • Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
