  1. Looks like quite a few of us are headed to Dominican Republic. Ladies what locations are you looking at and what time of year? I'm attempting to have our ceremony on 7/14/14, at Dreams Palm Beach but wondering if there are any other hidden gems I maybe overlooking.I sent a request to check availability of the date and waiting to hear back from the wedding coordinator.
  2. Well I bit the biullet and paid the fee (don't tell fiance or it will come out of my budget ). So glad so many of you have responded and provided your insights as well as experiences. Now on to the templates! But before I digress, I've changed my mind YET AGAIN our new wedding date (potentially) will be 7/14/14 which is a monday but now I'm trying to figure out the weather patterns for dominican republic. I don't really mind the heat but I don't want to be in the middle of a storm for the most special day of my life. Any tips on finding previous BDW brides based on their location and wedding date?
  3. I'm also considering paying. How can I do it?
  4. We are also in the process of narrowing down a date then a location. We both like Costa Rica and Dominican Republic we are just trying to figure out which one will be easier for our guests to travel to.
  5. So we have decided to begin with narrowing down what exactly our budget will be, finalizing the date (we still aren't sure if 2014 or 2015 will be better) and selecting a location. One area of concern is how expensive it is to fly. The resorts seem reasonable but getting there is really expensive so we are thinking of waiting until 2015 to give our guests (and us for that matter) time to save and pay on it). I'm realizing I probably will have slim pickings for 2014 as all of the ladies on this forum have over a 1 year jump start on securing their date anyway Just kidding. Now that I type this out I think I'm convincing myself that 2015 is the best date, besides that will give me over a year to get all of my DIT projects done and plan the perfect destination wedding! How are you guys handling the planning aspect and setting a date and AIRFARE...
  6. Hi Guys thanks for responding to my first post. ANDDDD for letting me know I'm not alone. I found a great thread on an organizer and created my own binder. I'm going to look back through my subscriptions and see if I can find it. Don't have enough posts to download the actual template but I got the basic layout for how the binder should be laid out. My sections are 1. Master planning calendar, timelines, checklist and budget 2. Attire/Hair/Makeup 3. Guests 4. DIY Projects - To capture all of my faves and templates (once I can download) 5. Welcome and Rehearsal dinner 6. Ceremony 7. Cocktails and Reception 8. Photography& Videography 9. Travel and Accomodations 10. Miscellaneous I have a seperate binder for all of my resort information. Hope this helps and if I find the link to the original post that helped me to organize my thoughts I will come back and post it.
  7. Sorry one more question, what are some of the best locations on the resort to get married.
  8. I know this thread is for brides who got married here in 2013. Any thoughts or impressions if you have already had your big day. We are still settling on a date not sure if it will be June 2014 or June 2015. Any suggestions for those who have already jumped the broom here. I'm not necessarily looking for a full blown review just some things you found that have not already been mentioned. Oh and by the way congratulations.
  9. How are you able to track the number of posts you have.
  10. I just love this planning three. I knew I wanted a destination wedding and the personal touch but this is just amazing and so inspiring. Thank you for taking the time to chronicle your experience.
  11. I was wondering what you guys were talking about regarding templates. Boy oh boy did I find them come on guys we can do it 150, 149,...25 down to full fledged member. Happy posting.
  12. Is anyone else overwhelmed (in a good way) by all the threads and the amount of information available. I'm still trying to narrow down a location and then I start peaking into DIY forum, reviews forum and I start to think oh wow I could do that and then I can never get it all done. So I guess my question is where do I begin. Btw my name is Zakia and I just got engaged.
