Anyone getting married on June 7th 2012?

Thanks msts82675...I was thinking the same thing. We are going to go basic and then a la carte items that we want. I am going to go into town and get the flowers to do the bouquets myself (I just want plain spider mums so paying $67 for that seems steep)

 

Do have over 30 attendee?  I emailed Lupita because it looks like we have more "yes" rsvp's than we originally expected, so now we may be over 30 and I asked Lupita if with the uograde to the Caribbean or symbolic package whether the cake is still only for 30 and she said it is.

Yes I have over 30 and I read we have to pay extra for the cake and sparkling wine (6 a person).  I'm curious do you or anyone else have a name for a flower shop in town?  I am interested in the idea of getting my own flowers but dont want to spend all my time searching the town for them.

MSTS - we had 34 ppl and although everyone loved the cake, we had so much left over.  It would have easily served 45 people.  Everyone had a peice of our cake and we did not pay extra to Lupita for our drinks at the wedding hut nor did we pay more for the cake.

Hope that helps!

Thanks Jenny,

 

 Im curious if you had to decorate the cake yourself?  Also any advice as to private party or renting the disco?

 

Thansk so much,

Tara

MSTS -

 

I brought my cake topper "M" initial, but they did the rest.  I didnt want to pay extra for sugar flowers so they put strawberries on top to add some colour to the cake and more texture.  It turned out pretty good.

 

As for a private party - the only thing you can do on the resort that is private is the Disco and its rented out until 11pm and then they open it to the other guests.  One of the brides that had their wedding the day after mine rented it and they liked it.  But they had a really young group of ppl.  I had a very mixed age group so I brought everyone to Fusion for the fire show as I figured it would be a better event for them. Its something I went back and forth on but in the end I was happy we did Fusion.  Most of my guests had never seen a fire show before, so it was a nice experience for them to take home with them.  If you have a party group or ppl that like to dance, I would suggest the Disco bc it probably would be a lot of fun.

 

Hope that helps

I'm planning my wedding for March/April 2013, and am wondering if any brides have gone down with their children?  I will have a 4 1/2 and a 1 1/2 yr old by then, and am trying to figure out sleeping arrangement. It would be nice to have at least our wedding night to ourselves (kids bunk in w grandma or aunts/uncles?) but am unsure if this is even possible!

Wondering if any brides have gone with their children?  I'll have a 4 1/2 and 1 1/2 ur old at that point and while it would be nice if we could have at least our wedding night to ourselves, am not sure if this is possible. Can kids stay with relatives one night?
