I cant wait to hear your review. I may not be back on this thread for a few days so I wanted to wish all the upcoming brides GOOD LUCK and I hope everything goes perfectly.

I don't know, I don't need my birth cert, I only need 2 picture ID's and my marriage certificate since I am doing a symbolic. You are crazy for working Monday!! I guess I am just a procrastinator, I haven't even thought about packing yet lol

[honey740]

Thanks Lizlett!!

[pyxystyx]

Agreed, I dunno what I would do if I were working the same day we were leaving! I would go crazy with anxiety! Nibsmom, you said you were staying at a hotel by the airport before you leave though? Is your flight really early the next morning/late that night?

 

Honey, you have to have your marriage certificate for the symbolic? I guess I just figured they wouldn't care if you were legally married in the US or not, since it's not a legally binding ceremony anyway.

Wonder how Speidi did theirs... ?

[honey740]

ours is @ 6am!! and the airport is about 1 hr away, so needless to say we'll be tired. YEah I don't know why they care, but they do. Besides, to get the honeymoon perks @ the Royal, we'll need the cert too.

Yeah, I kind of have to work Monday - mandatory meetings and I've used ALL my vacation days for the year already for the wedding. Our flight Tuesday morning doesn't leave too early, but we'd have to drive in rush hour traffic into Chicago - through construction - to get to the airport. I have no desire to put anyone through that!!

 

So...okay, now I have another dilemma - what would you do??

 

I ordered starfish pendants and chains from ebay - a seller with thousands of positive feedback ratings. I get a shipping notification on June 26th - two weeks later, no package. I email him. He says he doesn't know what's wrong, but they should be here this week. I say, I need them by Friday, or they are no good to me. He is just like, keep me informed. I'm like WTF, but whatever. So, today - another week later - almost an entire 3 weeks - I get the package.

 

First, the chains are wrong. Completely wrong. So, I email him. He emails me back, and says oh yeah, I sent the wrong ones - like he knew what he did!! He says, I'll exchange them, but I suggest these other chains with the pendant you purchased. Those chains are 5 dollars more expensive than the ones I ordered - and he says he'll charge me the difference!!

 

AND, I just looked at the envelope - the stamp on the front says it was shipped in JULY - no day. I'm so pissed. I have no idea how to respond to this guy.

 

What I was expecting was "I'll overnight the right chains to you right away!!!" Am I wrong to expect that

[honey740]

Someone please stop me from reading the trip advisor reviews, there are 2 awful ones on there right now and I am beyond stressed!!!

[MrsGin09]

Hi! My date is coming up soon as well! August 1st! We leave the 29th and i'm already nervous!

honey740- After i booked MP i refuuused to check trip advisor! I stayed at the majestic last year ( in DR) and it was awesome! but there were bad reviews on trip advisor for that week, which made no sense to me! So i suggest ignoring them! I much rather hear from the brides on this forum, this is a great resource and am so grateful to have found you guys!

[honey740]

I know, I am so stressed!!!

 

Nina- I would put negative feedback on his wall and then go and get the chains locally. You are not wrong to expect him to overnight it, and he seems like an ahole. I wouldn't deal with him anymore.

[nibsmom]

Honey - thanks for the advice - I think that's what I'll do.

 

Also, for you trip advisor peeps - remember that some people just are NEVER satisfied. Compare the number of bad reviews to good ones - there are WAYYYYY more good ones!! And, Tina must be having such a blast, because she's not been on to say she's bored or complain!! Take them with a grain of salt. Some people just like to complain!

 

I believe today is Tina's wedding day - isn't it?? Happy Wedding Day Tina!!!!!!
