Hello!

We will be joining the group ceremony, as no individual ones will be offered this trip.  Hoping to have as many kind-hearted souls as we can find to take some photos during the ceremony and maybe a few just before and after for memories  and to share with friends and family when we get home. Please let me know if you know of any folks who might be interrested?  Again, I am happy to pay, or bring gifts if I know what they are. Cute story of former highschool sweehearts (my amazing fiance broke up with me so I could leave a very bad home situation and start a new life across the country) who re-united after 18 years and are still as madly, if not more, in love with each other. In fact, if you see a gal with a long, curly "jew fro" and a monkey tattoo on her back and cute (aka hot) short, butch pasty-white (Gina's words, not mine) gal chasing after her on the beach, that's probably us. No pressure for amazing photos either as beggers can't be choosers and with all the love and positive energy, how can anything be wrong anyway, right?

thanks again,

josie

Hi Cassandra!

Thank you sooooo very much!   I do have a nice victoria's secret makeup kit ala my fiance and water-proof mascara.  Anything else I should bring? I excpect to have some sun (hopefuly not burn, but I'm a pastey white oregonian now) the day of, including some tan lines, but I'm not too worried about that. Anything from the pacific northwest you would like? The ceremony is supposed to happen sometime mid-week. We were told we would find out when we arrive at Punta Cana from the schedule postings.  It will be the group ceremony, since no individual ones are available this trip.

It is better/easier to reach me at my email:  josie.gold@gmail.com since I work a lot and rarely check this account. 

Thank you again for even extending the offer! I really appreciate it. 

Take care,

josie

Hi Kelly,

Thank you so much for offering!  We don't know what the date/time is yet, as we were told we would find out on the schedule when we arrived.  Planning on doing the group ceremony (a little bummed to find out the individual ones are not available, but for a good cause with all the extra entertainment). It's usually mid-week. Hoping we can get some additional pictures done right before or after as well.

If you really think it is possible to help, let me know what I should bring.and, thank you thank you thank you thank you!!! I use morroccan hair products (dry curly hair for a white chick). I own but don't use a defuser (but can bring it) and have some bobby pins and a large tooth comb (a big pick pretty much). Hair is about bra-strap length wet, and can shrink to my shoulders when dry, but it varies depending on how it feels for the day. I don't want all of my hair up as I have alopecia in the back, but otherwise am pretty easy.

Thanks again! My email address is josie.gold@gmail.com. It is probably easier to reach me that way, as I work 80-100 hrs/week and dont' check this account often. Please let me know what I can bring, what I can thank you with (I live in Portland Oregon, so if you like anything from around here I can try to get it for you and bring it...or money). And, if you decide you can't help, that's okay too!  Appreciate the offer regardless.

Take care,

josie

Hey there! I do hair! =) What day are you ladies planning the wedding?!

Kelly

Hello!  My partner and I will be getting hitched while at Punta Cana!  We have our outfits (me a simple lace strappless wedding gown and Gina a nice linen pants/vest...both with flip flops).  I was wondering if there were folks at the resort (or Oliva folks attending) that can help with a little make up for photos (while I appear more femme, I can barely put eyeliner on!) and possibly help wrangle my very curly past shoulder length "jew fro". Not looking for the super fancy traditional hair which will take months to remove all the bobby pins from. Just something a little nicer than my usual let it all hang out / or pull into a pony tail kind of look. I am more than happy to pay as well. 

Thanks,

josie
