oh & also some one else here said earlier about the cake - we cut the cake for photos then it was served to our guests while we were off doing our beach photo session, we thought it may turn up at the reception but it didn't no sign of it or what had happened to it which we though was strange as the whole bottom layer hadn't been touched then when we got back to our room the following night they had set up the table for us with the rest of the cake, 2 plates & forks, a bottle of champagne in the fridge & 2 glasses - we thought this was a lovely surprise!!

wow congrats to all the recent brides, your pics look fabulous! Time for my review - we got married on April 22nd at 1pm & the whole day was perfect, no-one needs to stress!! We used all the resort services, the spa girls were fabulous, I was pretty pleased with the resort photographer & the videographer - yes the video is a bit cheesey but that's how all wedding videos are in my opinion & it was well worth the cost for family at home to see we too had problems with the electrics at gazebo so I was waiting in the cart for about 20-30 mins, we were going to continue without my music but they fixed it. my dad/sister was getting a little stressed about this but as I had seen it happen in a wedding a few days earlier I was fine about it & just relaxed, Jamaican time mon! the ceremony was perfect, we cut the cake & did our first dance at gazebo, then group photos & we'd opted for the beach session too. after the ceremony we all spent the afternoon watching the football team we support on tv in one of our guests rooms with lots of champagne they had purchased in the airport! it was the perfect day as all our guests are big football fans & we won the league that game so big celebrations all round there was then time for people to change (I had a second dress) for our reception at the grill, which was perfect. after the grill, lots of drinks all day long we headed over to the entertainment area & it became quite a long night of drinking & dancing (very different for our group who had been early birds most of the holiday!) everything was lovely, we took our own sashes & flowers as I wanted chocolate brown & was unsure if they would have them. as I had my own flowers, they included a centrepiece for the table in its place i'll try to post a link to my wedding albums here so you can have a look https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.10151964417698504.1073741825.621033503&type=1&l=e012809c43 https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.10151971762943504.1073741827.621033503&type=1&l=69aecc05b6 any questions feel free to ask if ive forgotten anything!

we are flying out on 12th april, wedding on 22nd! its getting close!! quick question to anyone that has taken thier own foam flowers? im wondering how to transport them? did you just put them in a box in your suitcase or im not sure how to go about it at the moment...

thanks all - think im gonna get the make up booked with them too in that case! ooooh futurekeese im sure your dress will soon be here & will all be fine - its exciting buying all the outfits isnt it, i had a great deal on my dress - half price in the sale - fitted perfectly, the first one i tried on & i love it!! just cant wait now. last couple of weeks we've been getting all the mens things sorted what are your men wearing? traditional or beachy type? we're going for nice trousers with formal shirt, cravat & waistcoat, they all look so smart in them i want to get married next week not next april lol sarahj - feel free to come see our wedding as im sure i'll be doing the same with other brides in the days leading upto ours!!! how long are your parties going for? me & oh are flying out on 12th for 14 nights, but the rest of our group are flying out either on 17th for 10 nights or 20th for 7 nights so we are sort of having our honeymoon before everyone arrives lol also flowers...what are your plans? we are looking into getting artificial boquets/buttonholes made to take with us as we want them for our party when we get back too. i know the bride & grooms are included but we dont really want extra expense & dont want to end up paying twice for everyone elses!!

Hello ladies So glad i found this thread!! We are getting married at GBP on 22nd April 2013 - looks like theres a lot of us that week!!! We are having a 12pm ceremony & have decided not to spend any extra on a private reception etc as we have our party to look forward to when we get back home - i assume we will get a meal in one of the restaurants for our group, im happy with that. As for the photos, we are going with the hotel photographers, ive looked at thier stuff on thier facebook page & they look ok to me, they also got back to me pretty quickly when i emailed them for details of thier different packages Hair ive booked with the hotel salon but am unsure whether to book for make up or if i should do my own - i dont want it over-done as i dont wear a lot usually but then i want a good job so perhaps im better off letting a pro do it! what do you think? so excited now - jsut want to be there!! im sure it'll come around in no time!!!!
