Hey Ladies,

 

We are putting together our webinar schedule for BDW.  These webinars are great because not only can you get YOUR questions answered but also hear answers to questions from other brides that you may not have even though of

 

Webinars are a great way to not only hear directly from the wedding department but see the wedding packages that they offer, ceremony/reception pics, etc.

 

I try to only limit the webinars to once every 2 weeks so we of course can not do all resorts.

 

Please vote on which resorts you would like to have webinars on...you can choose more than 1.

Hi Vanessa56,

 

Yes I have had contact with the coordinator at the resort.  I had to change my ceremony time and I had a question about the wedding info document that they sent me.  Anel was very quick to respond to me and she was a great help.  

How is your planning going??

It sounds like Anel has been pretty easy to work with.  I haven't had any contact with her as of yet.  My travel agent has done all of that for me.  I am starting a list of questions for Anel though that I will email closer to our wedding date in May.

Do they have some decorations for the isle?  Are any of you using anything like that, or keeping it simple with what they provide?

Usually when I email Anel i get together a list of questions and it'll take her about 2 weeks to get back to me, at first I was frustrated with that but now I just don't expect a quick answer!

I think they do have stuff for the aisle but i'm going to bring my own stuff down-flower petals, stuff to hang on the aisle seats. it'll defiitely save money bringing my own stuff

Anel's been kind of a hit and miss for me.  She'll normally replies in a timely manner, but if I answer multiple questions sometimes she only answers one question at a time.  So I've had to ask the same question in a couple emails and it eventually gets answered.

 

I'm trying to keep the stuff I bring down to just one suitcase of wedding items  My fiance keeps telling me we should let them take care of everything, I just like to save money more than him:)

Anel has also been hit and miss for me.  I have a few big questions that are outstanding, especially regarding the photographer.  Since I leave on Sunday, I've decided that I will just wait it out and talk about it once we're there.  My general feeling right now is, "everything will work out in the end"

OH my gosh, your wedding is so close, how exciting!!!!   :-)

Hi ladies, thanks so much for all the great info! I'm still trying to pick my spot and this thread has helped very much!

Does anyone have a copy of the planning form that they could send me?  

 

Also, what additional costs did you have outside of the package price?  I'm curious how much additional people are spending and where.  LOL, I've never gotten married before but it seems like the packages are pretty all-inclusive.  I'm assuming though that it's not so cut and dry.

Hi Traci7642,

 

Do you mean the Word document that the wedding palnner sent out?

 

I have that one.
