Okay-so there aren't too many of us, but still we seem to be gaining some ground. I know when I first got on here there were almost no other Atlantica brides and it was a little discouraging. So-I thought we should give this a try.
I have my tasting this weekend! My wedding is not until April but they are closing for renovations until sometime late Feb/early March so we have to do it now.
Also, I'm not sure if anyone else heard yet; they are planning an 'open house' event for all couples booked for '06. The event is supposed to take place in March and we'll get to taste everything again. They are sending out a mailing soon.

Re: Official Atlantica Thread
was that open house email an actual invite (w/ time, details, etc)? Just curious b/c I've spoken to them and they keep mentioning it but have not gotten anything official.
Thanks!

Nope, I had emailed her about something else and asked about the open house as well. She said it'd be an e-vite.

Re: Official Atlantica Thread
So I saw a post by blue tulip about themes and I though it would be cool for each of us to describe the themes of our weddings.
We are doing a Shell theme.
All the tables are names after shells, and the placecards are going to have a sand dollar on them. The sand dollar is a main item. We are having seashell candy served with dinner (bringing our own).
We had a sandollar motif on the invites, sand dollar on the programs, Sandollar on the table cards and place cards.

Great Idea!
Our theme is 'Old New York'. Very glam, ya know when the Hamptons was a big deal, and when people read the society column in the paper. We are incorporating things that are very NY, like black and white cookies, apples, the yankees. Our table numbers will be pictures of us all over NY, in all of the popular spots, i.e empire state building, jones beach, montauk, statue of liberty. Our favors are black and white cookies, and baseballs. We are really just going super glam, tons of candles, loose orchids on the tables around the cp's, champagne passed on trays, small things like that.

Re: Official Atlantica Thread
I don't really have a theme-but I do have a color scheme-cornflower blue, white, with lavender and silver accents. Flowers will be hydrangea and tulips, with some roses mixed in. I'm trying to find a lavender flower so if anyone can help that would be great.
Love those who are going all out with a beach theme!

Re: Official Atlantica Thread
We are def going to the tasting! I think that there might be 2 groups, and I think we are in the later group. We go at 2:30. What time do you girls go?

Re: Official Atlantica Thread
We weren't put into a group. The evite just said the event was from 2:30-5. Did you get a separate e-mail??
Nevermind, I figured out that for some girls the evite had an earlier time. I'm a little slow today.
