Yes that's the menu. It says it includes beverages I guess that means alcoholic? Any thoughts on flank steak Lol

I just copied that from the website. I'm not a seafood person, so even tho I think we are getting the biggest package... I will probably ask for the Silver menu and see if maybe they can give me two entres

I was originally going to get the Ultimate Wedding Package, but preferred the Silver Menu as well and when I asked Natalia about it she said they would not allow substitutions and I could not get the Silver Menu with that package. I am not sure what Jacy will say, but that was what Natalia told me.

Reluctant Beach Bride-

 

The photographer that I am using is Lidya Solemidt. Here is her website.

 

Web Site: http://lidyasolemidt.t35.com

 

The way I presented it to Jacy was that I had already booked her. I also said that I would be happy to pay the fee for a day pass. She was nice about it but said she would make an exception. I will know more after my wedding on 2-28.

 

Also have most of you booked your wedding through your travel agent? My travel agent is encouraging me to do this....and it makes me a bit nervous.

Thats fine if they dont want to give me the Silver menu, but there is no way I am going to have sea food at my wedding. I don't eat it. They can create a new menu for me. I'm not going to bother asking about this til my date is closer.

I hate that they say they just can't do it, period. Thats BS... I mean, they can do it and if there is an extra charge then just say that. They act as if we are asking the impossible...

My TA (if you can call them that... I'm using Dream Days) offered to book the wedding package. I think they would have wanted us to pay upfront. If you just do it through the resort then they might make up pay that deposit, but you pay the rest at the resort... so since I'm broke, that works better for me

I considered Lidya, but I went with Martha Roque instead. It was a hard choice!

Ok, it is Lidya that I have been talking to so it must have been your wedding she was refering to when she said she was already booked there for February. I am going to try and see what happens. Thanks!!!

Bianca - I agree about how they just flat out say no. I am right there with you with the seafood thing, I hate it. I don't know what I am going to do yet, I just don't want to pick one entree and expect everyone to be okay with my choice. I want the "private" reception but right now my guest list is much small than I anticipated so I may ask about the whole "$20" charge for the regular menu at one of the restaurants. I still say it stinks that they are charging for stuff like that at an AI but its not worth arguing over.

Yay!! Finally got my niece's STD luggage tags yesterday. She did them herself and didn't realize how much work was involved with a DIY project. I think she's re-thinking doing her invites herself now.

Anyway, she had told all of us not to make our reservations until the STD's went out. My airfares from Newark haven't gone up in the past couple months, but they have gone up quite a bit from Phoenix, which is where the majority of the guests are coming from.

It's June 12, 2009 and it's now official for Erika & Blake!!!

[can't wait!]

Just wanted to let you brides know I got an email from Jacy today saying the resort won't open until Dec. 1.

I emailed her to see if they could possibly move my wedding here but my date is just shy of the grand opening.
