Awesome pictures! Fantastic review!

 

Sorry to hear that the resort wasn't stellar - and thank you for sharing that with others - this may sway a decision, and if their policies and procedures are less than stellar, other DWBrides have a right to know.

 

Thank you for your honesty and

 

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The Bolero actually just came with my dress. But I knew I wouldn't wear it all. However, my mom took it and made a purse out of it - which I totally love! I just purchased a satin clutch purse on ebay for cheap and my mom covered it with the lace. It came out awesome!!

Where was your welcome reception?

 

Looks like your rehersal was at ElCooctal, was it?

How was the food?

How was it in general?

Did all your guests come?

Did you do a walk through rehersal?

 

THANKS!

Awesome, awesome photos! You looked so beautiful and happy - I loved the one where you were teary-eyed. :-) And your review will be very helpful to future EDR brides!

One more question... I was thinking about trashing my dress but I/m not sure if it will be cleanable. Were you able to clean your dress after your TTD photos?

I haven't taken it into be professionally cleaned yet, but I don't think it will be a problem. In fact, the TTD shoot cleaned my dress! By the end of the wedding night - the dress hem was black! and I also had drink dribbles down the front of my dress (hehe).
I went into the ocean with my dress, and then took it into the shower to wash the salt off. By the end of that, there were no drink stains & the hem wasn't black anymore - just more of a light grey.
The only thing was that there are alot of spots that sand got into (the rouching on the body of the dress and throughout the lace in the train). But most of it I was able to get out once it had dried.

I totally recommend doing it with your dress - it was fun!
