Is that why the photographer tweeted about a venue change?

I believe that was when that was tweeted about change of venue and plans on hold

Sorry, late to the party. So, is that a paraphrase of what the photographer said and the speculation was that the venue changed due to bad weather? What would "plans on hold" mean?

This is the photographer's tweet:

Trip shooting for ABC to Curacao delayed. Change of venue...

The weather was fine that day, as I recall.

Cloudy, light rain -- May 10 http://www.wunderground.com/history/airport/TNCC/2012/5/10/DailyHistory.html?

Mostly cloudy throughout May 11

Same on May 9.

Would they cancel an FRC location over that? Seems weird. I had always assumed they would go back to Westpunt for the FRC for the sunset views.

jkccaz, would there be a second photographer?

He wasn't even the photographer of those photos. Did they have to replace him at the last second?

Something is off about this. Do you think it is possible there was no FRC in Curacao?

by jlccaz Thu Jul 19, 2012 11:44 pm

The photographer they did use is a well regarded wedding photographer, so I think there was always a plan for happy couple photos. What struck me was the coincidental timing of Matt Dunn's tweet and Love_Me's scoopage that (prematurely) announces Jef wins. I have always assumed that was figured by process of elimination. i.e., Arie/Sean were gone from the island, so therefore, Jef. Love_Me might be able to comment on that now that we are so close?

I am beginning to think that may be a possibilty.

The wording of the finale is weird "An Ending Emily never saw coming" or something similar, like the ending was out of her control.

It is a really strange season.

One of Love's spoilers said it was a normal FRC, didn't it? Am I remembering that correctly?

ETA: Never mind, Love and RS both said Emily got engaged in Curacao. It is definitely an unusual season.

I think that was in regard to the F3 rose ceremony. But, didn't Love_me also say that it was originally supposed to be Arie leaving F3? and then there was a switch-up behind the scenes. I think another source confirmed that also. So, if that's the case, then Emily knew Jef was F1 prior to the last rose ceremony and it wouldn't be that she wanted Arie. It still could be that after speaking to her dad Arie takes himself out - I think he will have noticed Emily pulling back a bit, her father's rather unenthusiastic response to his asking for his permission to ask Emily to marry him. Maybe he 'sees the writing on the wall' and takes himself out which Emily never saw coming. Sort of like Jef's supposed turning down of the fantasy suite - Emily said "he turned me down before I could turn him down". foreshadowing????

Possibly. Or mabe 2 FRC's by two different photographers. One to substantiate the spoiler and then a real one. I'm a conspiracy theorist and hoping for a shakedown. lol

The producers do seem to love foreshadowing and other effects. You may be right.
