Re: Any Destination Brides out there?

OOO yea!! i am.. now it feels official.. initially when we talked about it people would roll their eyes thinking that we were full of it... NOPE not anymore..

There are 3 packages depending on what you want.. we chose one of them at a flat fee which covers 20people .. but any additional is $80 ( open bar, food)

im invitin 90-100 but we dont anticipate no more than 50 -75.... because its a recession.. so long as my parents, sister and my fiance is there.. Im happy and more $$$ in our pockets hahahaha


Thank you so much!! We are considering Aruba for the longest but we get more for our $$ in DR and easier on guests..
Aruba is awesome though ... great weather & food!!

YES!! Sorry I don't get on LIW as much as I'd like to! Getting married in October 2011 in Scottsdale, AZ doing a desert theme right on the golf course-absolutely beautiful resort.

My family goes to Aruba every summer for two weeks and we love it. This year we went in the beginning of July and got to see so many weddings on the beach at the Marriott so I would def suggest it!!!!
Hope you enjoy it.... if you don't book it for your wedding def look into it for your honeymoon! Best weather and its absolutely amazing!!!!!!

Newly engaged here... thinking of a destination wedding... DR perhaps. It seems they have they best deals and more bang for your buck. Any suggestions of resorts?
