Wafflesmom Moon Palace Planning Thread - January 23, 2016

@@STBMrsPowell it sounds like you won't have a hard time achieving your ethereal vibe! I'm actually on my second coordinator since my first one moved to a different Palace Resort. So far, I've lucked out and both of them were quick to reply. My experience with my second coordinator was a bit rocky in that her response times started off slow but now she replies within 2 days. I know it can get frustrating but they work so many weddings and typically only get one day off. I'd say just be patient unless they're starting to completely ignore you. I've found that writing my email messages in point-form or numbered really helps. It is to the point and not too lengthy.

 

Did you have your meet and greet phone call with your coordinator or just meet her via email?

So I have been home sick for the last 4 days but today I got something in the mail that's made me feel better....I got our formal wedding invitations   As soon as we got engaged, Derrick's sister/my future SIL asked if she could make our wedding invitations. She makes cards for fun and I love all of her designs so of course I couldn't turn down her offer. My future MIL paid for all of the supplies including the card pockets, card stock, embossing powder, stamp and envelope. It was very generous of her. Back in July, my future SIL made two different versions for us to choose from. Right away, Der and I fell in love with one of them. So last month, my future SIL worked hard to finish all the invitations and today, I got them in the mail! I love them!!

Thanks @! We didn't really need the formal invitations but how could I turn down free invitations? Plus, it's a beautiful keepsake. We only made about 50 to send to grandparents and family from out of town.

Thanks @@calgarybride2015, I love the embossed starfish! And it doesn't put yours to shame at all. I'm so lucky she's really talented. I was content with online invitations lol

Thanks @@acw271011, I've made sure to keep one aside already.

 

And I agree with you about Kim's invitations, hers were really well done!
