Hi ladies. I need to vent!

 

My fiance's aunt is notoriously out-spoken. We normally get along (I try to get along with everyone...I hate confrontation) but lately she's been making comments that are driving me up the wall. Her biggest complaint is that she doesn't want to "sit around the pool all day...that's boring". She hates the heat, hates the sun...etc etc. So, of course, I tell her all the tours and things that are available, and say she can go up to Cancun or down to Playa Del Carmen because those are bigger towns and there should be a lot of stuff to do/see. She's only planning on going for 3 or 4 nights. So the last time I saw her, she said she checked into it and it didn't look like there was a lot of stuff to do down there. I almost lost it. I wanted to say...THEN DON'T COME. Honestly. It won't break our hearts if you're not there. My job is not to entertain you, my job is to marry the man I love, on the beach, and have the people that want to be there, THERE.

 

But of course, I don't say this, because she's my fiance's aunt and she's important to him. But I'm not sure I can bite my tongue much longer...arg!

Aw hun she just sounds god damn awkward. If she's only there 3/4 days what is she expecting? If it were me relaxing in the sun would be enough. As you say it's not your job to entertain her. You have done well to bite your lip. I dont know if i could ha ha... hope she calms down and stops with the silly comments. Deep breaths hun, it'll all work out ok.

AHHHH!!! I am freaking out! I emailed Xhail, my wedding coordinator, July 26th about starting to plan the wedding and still have not heard anything back from her!!! Is everyone having this trouble? I know the wedding is still 10 months away but the months are going by quicker and quicker! Plus, I want to book Ivan Luckie for photography, but since I havn't gotten a response back, I have no idea what the rules are about having outside photographers or where I am even having the wedding!!! :(

i think theres already 4 gals on here that have booked ivan for photgraphy and what she said to me was as long as they are a guest of your wedding ( 2 night stay minimum ) then it's ok to have him photograph ur wedding! i would email her again tho maybe it got lost. there's plenty of emails going around down there i think there's a few including me where emails have gone unresponded too!

So, does anyone know is it alright for you rphotographer to have a room for only 1 night?  I don't get why they have to book for 2 nights because if they stay 1 night then they are a guest at the hotel.  I've also heard you can just pay a fee to have them there.  Does anyone know if that is true?  I have emailed the wedding coord several times, but  still no response!  I just want to know what is their policy?

I booked Ivan Luckie to be our photographer (for March 16, 2011) and I emailed Claudia (our wedding coordinator) to ask what the policies were for having an outside photographer. She responded today and this is the email I received back from her:

 

Hola Melanie,

 

External photographer are not allowed on the resort, if he is one of your guest is necessary that you book him minimum 2 nights at the resort  minimum.

 

Thanks,

 

Claudia  Vazquez Garcia

I got married at the Barcelo on August 7th. I'm going to post a review shortly, but wanted to let you girls know not to sweat about the outside vendor/photographer policy too much. The policy changed last year, and it sounds like the policy might be changing again. Pretty certain the wedding coordinators know it's a bad policy. Anyway, I was told I would have to either pay $300 to the onsite photographer and pay for guest passes... or pay for 2 nights in the hotel. But frankly, these policies aren't exactly enforced. Probably because they are horrible policies and they are changing policies... 

 

If you have any specific questions in the meantime, please feel free to PM me!

Hey everyone!  So this is my first time actually writing on BDW (although I've begun to be an avid post-reader!) and I am strongly considering the Barcelo Maya for my January 2012 wedding. 

 

I know I have a ton of time before I have to decide, but I have already talked to Wendy Hicks from Wright Travel Agency (sooo super helpful) and she has also suggested the Riu Palace Riviera Maya. Just wanted to get some opinions on what sealed the deal for you with the Barcelo! 

 

We are definitely looking to have a wedding on the beach, that's a definite non-negotiable, and I haven't seen too many pics of beach weddings.  Am I just looking in the wrong places?  Any help would be so greatly appreciated.  Thanks girls!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! cheesy.gif

Welcome!

 

I had the Barcelo and Riu both picked out for my final two hotels. The main reason why I went with the Barcelo was that the price for the hotel stay was a bit cheaper for my guests. I had stayed in the Riu in Aruba and it was wonderful, however a friend I know just got married at Barcelo in May and I got to see her pictures and hear her first hand stoies about the wedding. She said the wedding cordinators were awesome and everything went very smooth, plus her pictures were AMAZING.

It just came down to the fact that I felt better knowing someone who got married there and that it had everything I wanted for my wedding (beachside ceremony, the grass and rocks plus white sand for pictures etc).

 

I would read up on some wedding reviews for sure before you make your decission. Only thing bad I can say so far with the barcelo is that their wedding package prices are a bit high compared to Riu. Also for having 21rooms booked with them im getting NOTHING for free which is silly IMO for brining that much business to them. Oh wells.

 

Congrats on your wedding though, I hope it all works out for you! :)

    • Just finished building and was lost on heating... [url=https://rjadom.ru/]this site[/url] helped a lot with practical examples.
    • [b]Сайт Кракен – лучшая торговая площадка Даркнета [/b] Сервис Kraken – лучший магазин Даркнета, где продаются разные позволяющие расслабиться препараты, фальшивые документы и деньги, можно заплатить за доступ к чужим личным данным и аккаунтам. Клиентам обеспечивается полная анонимность, а количество магазинов всё время растёт. [b]Покупки на Кракене[/b] На Кракене можно найти такие предложения: • Несколько видов наркотиков – от марихуаны и стимуляторов до ЛСД и кокаина. • Обналичка Bitcoin. • Взломанные аккаунты ВПН. • Услуги хакеров. • Паспорта, удостоверения, водительские права. • Банковские карты и симки. • Фальшивые купюры – в основном, 1000, 2000 и 5000 руб.. • Оборудование и приборы – от скрытых камер и жучков до флешек для взлома. На сайте можно и найти работу. Например, стать закладчиком, химиком или гровером. Можно стать продавцом. [b]Преимущества сервиса[/b] Причины для выбора площадки Kraken: • Полная анонимность клиентов и владельцев магазинов благодаря расположению в сети Onion. • Применение криптовалют в качестве денежной единицы. Это гарантирует анонимность всех транзакций. • Доступ к покупке сразу после оплаты. Закладки уже доставлены – нужно только забрать. • Минимальный риск мошенничества. Проблемы можно решить обращением в поддержку сайта, доступную 24 часа в сутки. • Система рейтинга, которая позволяет сразу отсортировать лучшие магазины. • Доставка в разные города РФ и соседних странах. Список доступных мест содержит сотни наименований. Клиентам сервиса можно бесплатно использовать дополнительные услуги. Круглосуточно они могут получить консультацию у юриста или нарколога. А если появились проблемы – обратиться в техподдержку, которая тоже отвечает круглосуточно. Ещё одна особенность сервиса – собственный форум. Вход из расположенной вверху панели сайта. На форуме есть основные правила, новости и информация от других посетителей. А ещё результаты площадки и раздел для общения доставщиков товара. [b]Способы перейти на Кракен[/b] Сервис, который продаёт психоактивные вещества и поддельные документы, запрещён контролирующими службами. И зайти на него, обычным способом не выйдет. Для доступа следует использовать зеркало, браузер Тор или VPN-сервис. Сервис ВПН – вариант, вариант, позволяющий обходить блокировки сайтов. В том числе – на площадки в Darknet. Преимущество метода – защита связи, возможность изменения данных входа только в браузере или всего компьютера. Недостатки – замедление скорости и небольшой размер бесплатного трафика. Второй способ – специальный браузер Тор. Чтобы зайти на Кракен понадобится специальная ссылка, заканчивающейся на .ONOION. Плюсы – отсутствие оплаты и принцип «луковичной маршрутизации», недоступный посторонним IP и отсутствующая история посещений. Минус – сравнительно медленный доступ. Зеркала сайта – тот же сайт, который расположен по другому адресу. Отсутствуют отличия от основной страницы. Есть возможность запуска в обычном браузере. Зеркальные версии будут работать, даже если временно недоступен официальный сайт. Недостаток зеркал – трафик не скрывается, а посетитель может попасть на фейковые страницы. Потому список зеркальных версий следует брать на надёжных сайтах. Есть такой перечень на наркошопе Kraken https://kraken-v2tor.info/magazin-kraken-v-telegram.html и тематических форумах. [b]Регистрация [/b] Чтобы пользоваться сайтом нужно пройти регистрацию. Это позволит совершать покупки, использовать форум и дополнительные услуги. Для регистрации нужно выполнить несколько несложных действий: 1. Зайти на сайт и указать проверочный код. 2. В форме регистрации ввести логин, пароль и имя. Логин – английскими литерами. Имя вводится и на русском. 3. Завершить регистрацию и подтвердить согласие с требованиями площадки. После регистрации идентификаторами можно пользоваться для входа в кабинет. Здесь показываются данные о заявках и оплате, предложениях скидки, настройки аутентификации. [b]Совершение сделки на сайте[/b] Совершить покупку на сервисе Kraken можно за несколько простых шагов: 1. Указать населённый пункт в выпадающем списке. По умолчанию там стоит место, выбранное при первом входе. Можно указать метро и район города. 2. Найти нужную категорию в меню слева. Указать вариант доставки – например, закладку или прикоп. 3. Познакомиться со списком доступных магазинов. Выбрать подходящий вариант и перейти на его страницу. 4. Познакомиться с отзывами. Если покупателя всё устраивает – перейти к покупке. 5. После перехода к форме заказа указать подходящий вариант. Это может быть Биткоин, карту или телефон и даже игру в рулетку. 6. Получить адрес клада и взять товар в указанном городе и районе. 7. Написать отзыв, чтобы другие посетители знали, что товар качественный – или были проблемы. 8. Запомнить магазин в «Избранное» чтобы было проще заходить из профиля. Покупая товар, стоит познакомиться с особенностями сделок. При появлении проблем покупатели могут открыть спор где будут участвовать админы. Правда, в первый раз купить можно только на криптовалюту BTC. Если выбран вариант «рулетка», открывается доступ к игре. Это даёт шанс заплатить меньше, делая ставки на поле из 100 клеток. Ещё один вид экономии – купон. Он подходит для оплаты не больше 50процентов стоимости покупки. [b]Гарантии отсутствия обмана[/b] Обращение на Кракен позволяет рассчитывать на качество продукта. Показать клиентам, что вещества соответствуют требованиям сайта, продавец может, заказав сертификацию. При прохождении проверки сведения о сертификате будут показаны вверху карточки. Гарантия отсутствия обмана – возможность подтвердить заказ в течение 24 часов. Когда покупатель убедился, что клад на месте, он закрывает сделку. Если возникли проблемы – можно открыть спор. Когда виноват продавец, средства будут возвращены клиенту. У магазина ухудшается репутация, а частый обман приводит к бану. Поэтому некачественного товара на торговой площадке практически нет Отзывы kraken shop Kraken маркетплейснарковалютная наркомаркет Kraken Рынок Кракен наркорынок Кракен в анонимной сети kraken market резервный адрес Kraken даркнет маркет Долгопрудный Площадка Кракен в тор Kraken даркнет маркет Сыктывкар Kraken даркнет маркет Арзамас Kraken даркнет маркет Владимир Кракен Казан Читаева магазин Kraken даркнет маркет Севастополь наркорынок на Kraken Веб-сайт Кракен Kraken трейдинг Магазин Кракена Kraken наркорынок Кракен сайт Москва как войти на сайт Кра?кен официальный

    • 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!
