November 2010 Brides

Hi ladies! How is everyone doing and how is the planning coming along?

Im about to book a photog and getting ready to start my invitations. I hope to have them out by June 1st or so. Im trying to book a DJ, but the resort is giving me a hard time

i am in the same boat with everyone else - just waiting to see what the final guest count is so i can start making favors, place cards, escort cards, OOT bags etc... booo! i am sending out my invites this week with an RSVP date of August 1, 2010. I've ordered my dress (back in Dec 09) and its still not in - i hope it fits when it comes in.

Hi all--sorry late getting back to this thread. Yes, I knew Las Caletas sounded familiar. It's a beautiful location, I've been there by boat. San Pancho is a small fishing village north of PV, North of Bucerias, and North of Sayulita. Its only got a few hundred people living there. It's very quaint, and everyone knows us there.

November 13 date twins! 13 is a lucky number in latin america, btw.

I didn't know 13 was a lucky number in Latin America!!!

Venue -booked

STDates - sent out last week

Dress- Bought!

Bridesmaids dresses - finalized:) Waiting for the girls to order the one we picked

Groomsmen attire- we're still trying to figure out what to do with this. We are getting married in a chapel for a Catholic Ceremony so it needs to be dressier. They might get grey tuxes or grey suits.

Photog - open still.....hoping we can finalize that this week

Honeymoon - we're trying to figure out what the best option is. It's so easy for us to go to Mexico on vaca so we thoguth it would be a good idea to go somewhere else in teh caribbean such as Turks & Caicos....just gets pricey with all the flights!

I've got my long to do list to keep working on...

Here's my checklist...

Las Caletas: booked

Dreams PV: 32 rooms booked

My Dress: ordered and trying on next week

Bridesmaids dress: ordered but waitlisted from J Crew

Groomsmen shirts: bought (from target for 19.99!!)

Invites: will be in this week..just have to put stamps on them and send

excursions: working on one big one for everyone..not sure yet

OT Bags: bags fabric painted, almost done with hangover kit

Music: we are doing our own music so Im trying to figure out what I want for ceremony

Many more things on my to- do list but im getting there!

Here's what I've got so far

Air & Hotel booked

My dress - picked and hanging in my closet

BM - picked and she's got it in her closet lol

Groom & Groomsmen - still to be figured out

Guest coming with us - 6 booked and 4 more a possibility

Photographer - done

OOT - debating

Hi ladies! Im getting married November 5 @ Aventura Spa Palace in Riviera Maya Mexico...we sent our save the dates out in January...32 people are booked so far...hoping to have a total of around 50 My dress is ordered, as our my bridesmaids..thats really all I have done so far I guess the next two important things to have done are hire a photographer (does anybody know how good the one at the resort is?) and send out invitations I was uncertain about this one...how far in advance should I send them out and when should I make the RSVP date? I was thinking not till september, but now after reading your posts I feel like I should do them sooner...also do I send invitations to people, even though Im pretty sure they're not coming what is the etiquette for this?
