Thanks for the heads up, I was already quoted a vendors fee for the makeup artist.  I will just let them know the day before she arrives so I don't have to pay.

 

If anyone hears back Jodi please let us know.  Communication during this wedding planning has been horrific and adds a stress factor I sure wish we could do without.  

 

I'm so spoiled with Kathleen (my real touch flowers vendor), Rebecca (from Allurements) and Rashel (makeup artist), their response time is within the hour.

Jonesr1979,

 

Congrats on your wedding and thanks for posting your review. Can you please let me know if you had to pay to put a dance floor in Calabash? I saw Nicole's response to PintSize that it was an additional $400 and up!

 

Can anyone else comment on this as well?

 

Thanks!

 

 

 

Prettysparklie, I got clarification from Jonesr1979 who recently her private reception at the Calabash gourmet restaurant that there is NO additional fee for the dancefloor. Thank goodness. I was confused too after Nicole's response. Hope this helps.

Who are you using for your real touch flowers?  I have found a couple online, but would love the website of who you are using to look at her work.

 

Thanks!

I'm using amandarosefloral.com . After waiting a few months for another vendor to start my order.  I was then met with disappointment when she basically told me she couldn't accommodate me after asking me to wait two months.  Needless to say I found amandarosefloral while doing a google search.  They have a facebook page and the flowers look great.  Kathleen the owner is extremely attentive and was willing to rush my order. 

 

Unfortunately, she doesn't have any reviews on BDW, so I'm simply praying for the best.  Now to try and figure out who will do my huppa flowers and my centerpieces since Tai Flora isn't answering me.  You would think they'd want the business, gosh this is unreal.

Hi girls!  The first time I posted this it kind of got lost in the mix, so I'd love to see if anyone else has any comments:

 

 I'm just wondering what everyone is doing for dinner & reception.  From the info I have, private restaurant rental is from about 6:30 -10.  The disco can only be rented out privately until 10:30, so it doesn't make sense to do private dinner and then private disco.  But I feel like 10 pm is pretty early to call it a night, and I would like a PRIVATE reception to go a bit later into the night, like midnight at least.  I'm not sure if it makes sense to have a DJ and dancing if we have to clear out by 10 pm.  Am I missing something?  How is everyone else planning the reception?  Is there any way to have the reception last until midnight?

[Tina5978]

Starry I posted my plans earlier in the thread if you need a guide.  I'm doing the following:

 

Ceremony on the beach including sand ceremony, dove release and toast

Cocktail on the beach full menu and open bar

Dinner reception at the Calabash including open bar, first dance and speeches, 630-8pm- private rental w/dj

Beach party from 8-1030pm with dj and fire dancers etc.  I may try to convince Nicole to let us party until 11pm.  

 

If we are not exhausted by than we may continue to party at the disco for the remainder of the night

Tina what's the website/name of the real touch flower company that you are using?
