St Thomas May 2013!!


Jackie Milton

Recommended Posts

        Hi Ladies,...Just wanted to introduce myself,...been lurking and surfing some of the great info on this site!! My names Jackie my fiance and I have decided to "make it legal" after 10 years and get married.

We took a cruise approx 5 years ago and loved it, so the plan was hatched to cruise Eastern Caribbean and be married on St Thomas after I fell in love with some wedding photos I came across of another cruise wedding. After lots and I mean LOTS of hashing out of dates and "discussions" with family,...we have settled on a cruise leaving Miami on May 5 2013 and getting married on St Thomas May 8 2013.

 

Hope to find some other brides maybe doing the same thing and we can bounce ideas!!

 

Take care and Happy Planning!

Hi Jackie!

 

My name is also Jackie and we're doing the same thing, cruising the Eastern Caribbean and getting married in St. Thomas.  Are you using Island Bliss weddings for your on-island wedding planner?  I would love to hear about your plans and bounce some ideas off of you.  Congratulations on your engagement!

Congratulations, Jackie's!

 

We're very excited to hear more about your planning. BDW is looking for great content regarding St. Thomas as well as Cruise weddings, so please share your adventure and findings!

 

I've featured this on the homepage as well. 

 

Happy planning!

Congratulations to all of you. 

 

I'm sure this journey can be scary planning a wedding to a place you may have only visited once. We have some suggestions of great beaches to get married on, on this page: http://blueskyceremony.com/st-thomas-wedding-locations/

 

Hope it helps and if you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask. 

 

Much love and many beautiful wedding wishes,

Amber Ambrose Motylinski

Hey Ladies!!

 

"GauchoSteph"   So sorry for slow response...anyone know how to trigger email notifications to posts?

 

Yes we're using Janelle from Island Bliss and she has been absolutely fantastic,Responds to emails so quickly and full of helpfull advice,...did I mention patience of a saint?LOL

Carnival Glory out of Miami is the plan. Booked at Villa Botanica, which I can't wait to see!

The ship doesnt dock til 11 so I'm hoping to be able to get hair and makeup on the ship before we port. Anyone had experience with this??

Anyone have any ideas on dress travel?

What are your guys going to wear??

 

Congratulations to "MochaPrincess"

    • Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!
    • Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
