Hi just read that you started this from the HVGB forum - well done!!! You seemed lonely so I thought I'd post and now add it to my favourites.

I'm also getting married at Holiday Village golden beach in Mar 08 and can't wait to hear how anyone else got on with their wedding here.

Hi all, nice one v.gadsby for setting this up, spoke to you on numerous occasions, also shelobern and grogan. its really nice to speak to loads of brides to be. maybe we should put the hotel and dates in the header for when we are getting married so its easier as i know i keep getting confused with all the dates. xx christine xx

my wedding was pretty cheap $900 for 10 guests , champagne, cake 3 course meal, wedding cert ect but the papaer work needed from uk was £42 for legalisation of birth cert and stat dec then another £290 for legalisation and translation from dominican embassy !!!
have you set a date yet ?

Is anyone concerned about their wedding bouquet or is it just me being paranoid? My friend has just got married in Antigua in a 5* plus hotel and the wedding bouquet was horrible, so its started me off worrying as to what it will be like, if its anything like hers she was asked which colours she wanted but it seriously looked like an old grannie had put them together. im wanting something exotic and colourfull.

Planner - hopefully you will look on this thread, can you tell us if there are any flowers like this in the Dominican or are they expensive??

I got married last July at the Superclubs Breezes and I did ask the wedding coordinator if I brought a picture can they make the bouquet and I did let he know the types of flowers I wanted before hand. I brought a picture of the bouquet I wanted and they did an amazing job it looked just like the picture. I too was worried about it but the bouquet for myself, maid of honour and flower girls came out beautiful! I was very nice to the wedding coordinator who was very nice as well. I guess that helped having someone as good as her I also left her a small gift as a thank you she was very happy and grateful I received my marriage certificat in 2 wks which I was shocked since a lot of people had complained how long it took to receive them.
Sorry back to flowers, I had yellow and orange roses with a few sunflowers in my bouquet. If you would like to see them for yourself check out my pics at: Flickr: Photos from Bachatafreak
Your day will go great, I was just as worried and everything was beautiful and perfect!!
Let me know if you have any questions
