Hey,
I was just reading your post on the hairstyle thread and came to realize after looking at your bio that we have quite a bit in common with some of our weddng ideas...... I was hopping I could pick your brain a little on your experiences??
first of all it was nice to get your feedback on the hair... judging by the pics our hair looks to be about the same length and you had pretty much the same hairstyle I'm looking for (and veil).
Makena Surf is also the beach we are getting married on. I just read in your bio that you specifically picked one entrance - are there several to chose from? and is it going to be difficult directing guests to exactly where you need them to be, I tried finding an address or something for our invitations but so far have come up with nothing? Did you come down after everyone in the "traditional" form with your Dad? I haven't been sure that it was a possibility with the more casual set up on the beach - I really hope to? and also I'm not sure how many guests you had but did you find the beach suitable for say a group of about 20 people? Sorry I know a lot of questions - I know I could ask my coordinator but it might be nice to get the point of view of someone who's been in my shoes before.
I also noticed that you went to 5 palms after the ceremony..... I am looking for somewhere open late enough after a sunset wedding and am tossing between this place and Sorento's.... did you look into Sorento's at all? and if so would you still pick 5 palms over it?? Did you stay in your dress or did you change?
Again, Sorry for such a loaded post - can you tell I'm getting a tad overwhelmed LOL
