arghhh thanks it rweally was better than i imagined... to all you who are plpannng what i would say is don't go overboard with the planning ( i had a break from november to may ) as you think the little tiny things are relly imprtant but inm reality no one really cares. Its just about thw two of you being together with those who really care about you and having a damn good time. it doesnt matter about the favours or the order of the day... on the day they are all insignificant. i would just advise to spend lots of time with h2b nd not get side tracked with the wedding. ( god i really do sound like an old married!!)

yes we ad a dj via the hotel though they do have a few the one we had was fab.. pricey but you do have to have a dj lol.
Flowers mine were ordered from sarahs flowers, and i made my bridesmaids. we used duncan cox ( dc photographic) for the photos e does mainly reportage photos which is what we really wanted... i woud recommend him.
the dvd we had was amazking by still productions and Jill was absolutely fab...she emailed the other day to say that she is coming to the uk to start doing weddings so not sure if she will be in cpyrus fdor your wedding but perhaps wortha try..

you are not havinmg receptionm at the hotel???
Hmm i imagine that they would be able to accomodate you in the otehr section of the Bacchus bar for speeches toasts and cakes. there were other parties i saw doing that whilst we were there. |I would give marious a quick email to check though i am sure it will be fine. 3 weeks i am sooo jealous i want to go back now... make sure you have a happy hour cocktail over the road for me whilst yu are there... i recommend anniversary, or san francisco or orgasm... lol

Thanks hun, no wonder you wish you were back there - just lookin at your photo's and they are brill. You all look fab, for the stag and hen and then even more lovely on your wedding day.

We have decided just to pick somewhere nice for a meal after the reception as there are not very many of us. Really nervous though, as we have not sorted anything apart from the photographer. Kept thinking it was better not to over plan in case anything went wrong, then I wouldn't be too gutted if anything went wrong, but now I'm regretting that idea a little bit - I feel like nothing is in my control!!

WOW. The report was great. Sounds like you had such an amazing time. It really does sound like the perfect wedding. and the pics prove it was just that.

You look stunning, so do your bridesmaids and you Mum looks great too.

You both look soooo happy. I love the pics where you have huge grins on your faces and the ones of your husband kissing your shoulder on the beach. Truly amazing.

hi gals
thans again... i lok at the pics and i actually cant believe that that was our wedding... i also love love love the colours as they have turned out really good on the pics and the DVD.
Michaella i would really recommend still productions for the dvd we had a full day one for 500 euros so wshe was there from us getting ready til just after the first dance. i really cant recommend the dvd enough and if we had a choice between losing our pics or the dvd i would save the dvd everytime. they als od o a half day one too .. it is really good to see what each other was doing ealier on and also see the guests arrive and that....
