Oh my gosh...I forgot one very important part in my review.

Makeup-JN did all the make-up and it came out amazing! 2 of my bridesmaids were set on doing their own make-up and once they saw the other girls they got right in line. JN was so easy to work with. We added 3 extra faces and she was still done on time! My mom looked as stunning as when we went for the trial!

My friends couldn't get over how great my make-up looked!

So anyone that booked her you have no worries!

Re: The Newlyweds are back!-Review and Pics!(still adding)

Here is our Tahiti Review!!!!!

Ok so we flew out to LA with our sky miles. First class (the only way to go if you can swing it.) Matt is way too tall for a regular seat

In Papeete we stayed at the Sofitel Maeva Beach
This hotel was nice but nothing to rave about. We were only there for 2 nights so it was fine. The Beach Comber was next door and is incredible!!! Big $$$$ but very nice! We ate at a place in downtown Papeete called Lou's Pescadou Pizzaria(every other resaurant is a 'pizzaria' I guess they think that is a fancy name) The place was very cute and the food was good. No airconditioning (no places do) but they do give free water at the table. A rarity in Tahiti!

On the 3rd day we took a Catamaran to Moorea. This was great. The view was incredible.

In Moorea we were supposed to stay at the Fare Vai Moana. Well when we arrived it was less (a lot less) than what we expected! So a call to our travel agent and we moved to the Beach Comber. What a difference. We had a beach bungalow and it was amazing. Huge inside and the view was incredible. We were right in front of the water. The service and food was great at this hotel! We spent 4 nights here. We rented a car on Moorea for 24 hours and it was a great way to see the Island. Highly recommend it. It also gave us a chance to scout out places to eat (the hotel is very $$$$) All (or most of the restaurants do pick ups and drop offs which is very convenient!) We found a place called Alfredo's. Excellent food and lots of fun. Live music a few nights a week and the patrons tend to get up and sing. We ate here twice!

Then it was off to Bora Bora. We flew here and again the view from the plane was amazing Matt took some great pictures. We will post after this review. Here we were due to stay at the Top Dive Resort. Very cute but small resort. Very intimate which is what we wanted. They had a problem and were doing renovations so they had moved us to the Bora Bora Lagoon Resort. It is out on it's own Island. Here we had an overwater bungalow. Even better than the Beach comber in Moorea. The bungalow was huge and well decorated. Matt loved feeding the fish through the coffee table! Couldn't have been a more perfect end to our trip. We ate at Bloody Mary's one night. Fun place. They encourage you to check your shoes and men to check their shirt as you enter. The entire place is covered in Sand. A must see for anyone going there.

If anyone has questions let us know!!
