Christina's Las Caletas Review, Puerto Vallarta, Mexico - 10-18-08

great review! everyone always seems to have a great time at lc!

my rehearsal dinner was at barcelona tapas also. it was perfect! brittany, they keep bringing out food till dessert - so if someone really liked an appetizer, they can ask for more even if you're already almost thru the entree.

Maybe since you mentioned it to Nicole she'll make sure it doesn't happen in the future. Also, aren't the fire dancers always supposed to come out and suprise everyone at the end of the night?? I thought that's what Kelley told me during our visit. Anyways, great review and you definitely started getting me excited!!

We didn't hire him as a DJ per se, it was just the sound guy - but definitely got the better of me that night. We put a lot of time and iTunes into our playlist, too! I still fume when I think about it... we had some really good songs that we never got to hear.

Not sure when the fire dancers are supposed to come out, but for us it was to be after the first dance. I just happen to see them and said we may as well get moving with the dance portion of the night anyway - they probably had come straight over after the Rhythms of the Night show. You could probably have them wait till you're ready.

lol Christina - you are so funny!!! (In a good way!) Reading your review I'm thinking "that's exactly what I'd be feeling!" - I'm thinking we must have similar personalities! I'm so happy that you didn't let the "little" things (and I use that term loosely when your wedding dress is burned!!! LOL) get you down! Good for you!!! Sounds like you made your day happen. I can't wait to go see the pics now!!! Did you happen to post a separate thread about the Marriott?? I haven't browsed for that, but I will. I'm dying to hear about that as well.

 

All in all - sounds like an AMAZING wedding!! CONGRATS and welcome back home!!!!! :) :) :)

Thank you!!! So sweet...

After my husband stepping on the train of my dress, taking out the bustle after four months of work, I had to get over the little things. I was pretty stressed out prior to that really. But after a drink, I got into the spirit of things and just let it all go and enjoyed myself and had to remember that the small stuff doesn't really matter.

I did not do a Marriott thread, but I should post for it or at least tag onto the one from before. Hope you got to look at the pics. I can't stop looking at them!!! I loved our wedding day!

ChristineH...just want to understand the music stuff..so the guy really was not the dj...just the sound guy and you did not pay the dj fee right?

[ChristinaH]

No, he wasn't the DJ nor did we pay for a DJ. We provided an iPod with all of the songs we wanted to be played.

Sounds like a great day (minus the whole catching on fire part.)
