I've been meaning to start this program since last spring!! I was just thinking before I came across this thread that I'd start it this week (for real this time)... Now, I think it's just the motivation I need to actually start it I'm going to do Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays. Wish me luck tomorrow ladies!!

I'm so worried that the prices will go up and no one will be able to afford to come anymore. I know it's probably totally irrational, but it's definitely keeping me up at night! On an up note, I finished our info brochures! They're pretty simple, but I'm happy with the way they turned out! I need to start looking into venues for our AHR, but the DW planning stuff is so much more fun right now

Great idea! I love iron-on transfers :-D Adding to my list of fun projects for later...

Love!! I'm definitely adding this to my list of DIY projects to do I'm getting sooo close to finishing our invite/info brochure. I'm looking forward to doing more fun, crafty stuff

Looks great! I'm trying to design a brochure for our wedding now, and it's making me crazy!

This will be so helpful! thanks for sharing

Super cute!! I have been screwing around with powerpoint all morning trying to come up with a cute logo for us.. It's driving me crazy so far!!

I would like to do the whole dinner thing but I'm having a hard time figuring this out! We decided to do a private dinner after the wedding as our way of thanking our guests for coming. It's a little pricey ($95 per person, plus a $200 setup fee). Email Debbie at Couples ([email protected]) with any questions you have. I've been bombarding her nearly every day with questions, and she is so nice and patient!

Hey ladies! Just booked my wedding tonight November 6 at Couples Negril, Jamaica. Can't wait!! Done so far: Travel booked, deposit paid Wedding booked, deposit pad Dress ordered Wedding bands bought Confirmed with guests that they can/want to come with us Still To Do: Way too much to list right now...

My biggest stressor right now is actually getting this thing BOOKED. I'm terrified the prices will skyrocket before everyone is booked, and then I'll feel guilty for people having to pay more.. My fiance is already on "Island Time" and is "no worries, Mon" about everything. I, however, want to get everything in place so I can stop worrying about it. I'm sure then I will find something else to worry about

I am in the same boat... (no pun intended!) We are planning a Couples DW, which means adult couples only... No one in our families has ever taken a "real" vacation, and we'd like to share our first "real" vacation with them. My sister has come to realize that she will probably have more fun leaving her 2-year old daughter at home, and is looking forward to reconnecting with her husband (they never took a honeymoon). The only one really giving us much grief at this point is my stepmom. I have two stepbrothers (14 and 17). She is livid that we are excluding them from the celebration, and thinks we're being selfish and cruel. She has NEVER had a break from her kids, and we were thinking it would be nice for her and my dad to have some quality time together as well. Kind of a "second honeymoon" for everyone. I'm having a hard time knowing that she is mad at me for this, but it's what Ryan and I want, so we're sticking to our guns. Stay strong ladies! It's our day!!

That's great to hear! We're planning a November 2010 wedding, and are seriously considering Couples (probably Negril, maybe Tower Isle). Did you have guests with you, or just you two?

We're considering Couples too! There will be 6 couples coming with us (no kids or singles). Considering Couples Negril or Tower Isle.. any preference so far?

Thanks so much for the warm welcome! We are strongly considering Couples Negril in Jamaica.. we want an adults-only resort and Jamaica seems beautiful! We're a little concerned with the weather (we're planning November 2010) because it's the tail end of hurricane season. Guess I'll have to spend more time over in the Jamaica forum
