This place is paradise! The trip from the airport we flew into UVF was about an hour and a half from the resort. I was green by the time we got there and totally needed that welcome drink! I took Dramamine for the way back and was fine. Our cottage was Chale which means hot and steamy. We also did the 7-night honeymoon package. The staff teased us all week about being in cottage "C". The oceanfront cottages are well worth the extra money. Our plunge pool was a little cold b/c it never got direct sunlight, but it was very refreshing after the long trek back up all the stairs! We did the Sunset Cruise which is very romantic. The rocking of the sailboat made me a little queasy afterwards, but the view is totally worth it! We did the snorkeling trip between the Pitons, and our guide was great. He would dive down and point out things or pick things up for us to touch and see. So much fun! We paid extra to do the deep sea fishing trip which was DH's favorite part. We caught lots of mahi mahi, and the skipper and captain were fun. We also did the Land and Sea Tour, but I could have done without that one. Seeing the Sulpher springs where the volcano has collapsed was interesting, but VERY stnky! We then went to the Diamond Botanical Gardens where we got to play in the waterfall from Superman II. THEN, they took us to another botanical garden. We saw pretty much the same plants all over again, plus had a two-hour hike. No one was really prepared, so we were all hiking in flip flops. I would recommend skipping this trip. We also had a wine and fruit basket at sunset. The star fruit and pineapple are SO yummy there!

My husband has known Rob, the singer, since high school. Rob and the guys had everyone dancing all night. One of my favorite parts of the reception was when he handed over the drumsticks to my man and let him play while our Best Man sang. Priceless!! The Topcats are great, but book up fast! If you are interested, call them NOW!

I was SO pleased with our cakes, especially the groom's cake. The picture I gave them of the groom's cake was kinda blurry, but his drum cake turned out AWESOME!! Everyone really liked my cake, and my co-workers finished it off a week after the wedding and everyone was still raving about how good it was.

The cars were clean, the drivers were courteous and on time. Our driver even drove us around for a bit before dropping us off so we could finish a glass of champagne and see the city a bit.

Becky from White Oak is great and very easy to contact. However, Patrice Fisher, the harpist and lead musician was not. Patrice kept on referring me to her website to listen to the music, but the website crashed frequently saying I had exceeded her transfer bandwidth or something like that. She did majorly stress me out the week before the wedding because I was struggling to finalize my music, and she was not much assistance. However, the day of the wedding, everything came together and from what I could hear inside, it sounded great.

Beebe's work speaks for itself. The thing that impressed me the most was how fast he got all the group pictures done after the ceremony. Members of our bridal party were amazed at how quickly we were done. Beebe and his wife, Corine, were everywhere that night. They captured so many moments that I would have missed otherwise.

What can I say, Diane is the greatest! When she arrived at the Elms to decorate the gazebo, no one was there to let her in. Instead of letting that discourage her, Diane simply hopped the fence!! LOL!! I loved my flowers, and the girls flowers looked great as well. She made a special trip to drop off the girls flowers at the hotel, then made another trip later in the evening to drop off the guy's flowers at the Elms. I truly believe that Diane got the look I was trying to create. I loved her and would recommend her to anyone!

John or "Reverand JZ" as he likes to call himself was so much fun! He helped me in every step of the planning process. He met with me to help me plan my programs and his sense of humor is great! DH was a little nervous before the ceremony but John talked to him and joked around with him to help him relax. He made our ceremony so personable and fun. I HIGHLY recommend him!

The Elms Mansion was such a great and unique place for our wedding and reception. We got so many compliments on the food and location. Originally I was sort of concerned about it being too small for our guests (about 175) but it seemed to flow really well. I LOVED the gazebo for our ceremony. When I saw it all lit up, it literally took my breath away. The weather the night of our wedding was fantastic, so our guests were able to take advantage of the outside terrace. They had a bar set up inside and outside, so no one ever had to wait in line for a drink. Our wedding coordinator was a drill sergeant making sure we did everything on time. That night it kind of irritated me, but looking back on it now, I realize she was just making sure we got everything done.

Jessica was wonderful, but their services do book up fast. If you are interested, you should book them early! She did my hair and makeup. My hair was just perfect! It stayed beautiful all night long. My makeup lasted all night as well. The airbrush makeup really does feel light and doesn't rub or sweat off.
