welcome to the forum, you will have a lot of great info as we have added quite a lot of Las Caletas Brides recently...can't wait to hear all your details, your big day is coming soon.

we were going to do sit down, but our caterer told us that we would have to do so much more in rentals and it seems really silly to do that. So buffet it is!!!

well I know that I wouldn't spend that much, but I totally understand why you would want to, if they bring the dance floor, plus they would be so entertaining. I think my dad would keel over if I spent that on entertainment, but that's why we are having a friend DJ because I would rather spend more money on other things. I think it sounds like a great deal for how much they do, so I say go for it!!! Maybe you guys can let them know you are a member of a forum and you know a lot of other destination brides would use them, and maybe they'll even work out a better deal with you?

welcome-I know we have a few Cancun brides. We are glad you stopped in for a peek and please let us know if you need anything or have questions.

Welcome, let us know if you have any questions, but for now I would look around the Mexico area of the forum and see all the pics that have been posted. Also make sure you post your engagement story and why you are chosing PDC. I think the best place to start is picking the location and resort you want to get married at, so you have the location, so look for a resort. Things to think about: 1. do you need a place where children are welcome 2. does it need to be an all-inclusive 3. how many people do you think will come 4. do you want to get married on the beach 5. will you just be having a symbolic ceremony or legal wedding that should get you started.

The knot has a great gallery, but this looks like a great boquet for you girls who are going with a more festive vibrant color theme.

I am thinking of something like this or like this with burgandy ribbon tied around it? or a combo of both-plus the orchids which are my favorite flower

Congrats that is a very exciting step....I am sure the entire day will be beautiful!!!

Amy, how much is 26,000 pesos? That sounds really cool...can they send you a CD of them working? Maybe that would help. But how fun would that be to have all the costume changes...

Glenda, I know how you feel about not wanting to put it off, because there are times when you will want to have BM days and need to do stuff with them. I also know that my BM's were very excited to be on our website, in fact one even sent me a beter picture of herself because she hated the one I had...anyway with that being said, because of what she has recently done, I would call her and tell her "you know I have been thinking and I didn't think this would make a difference but because you lied about James, he and I don't feel comfortable with you standing up for us, its just an akward situation and need to do some re assignments anyway because of the DW. Of course we would still love for you to be in attendance. I hope you can understand how uncomfortable that would be" otherwise, what Kate said is really great too...I would personally not tell her this at the other wedding, because if she can lie like that about your FI what kind of scene is she going to make, and you wouldn't want to ruin your other friends day with drama. You also might want to give your other friend a heads up so you don't wind up sitting at the same table as this girl at the wedding. That would be really weird.

I really like this idea, I will have to ask the store when we pick up my FI ring in a few weeks

I bought these tonight with my dress, I think they go with the formal style of the dress, but who knows if I can actually wear them all nightDavid's Bridal - Accessory Macy Dyeable Peek A Boo Toe With Pearl.

welcome back. a lot of women on here are using Maye so I am sure they can help you, but let us know if you have any specific questions.

Glenda, after hearing about the cut-throat world of NYC weddings, this is a scary issue. I would first let her know that you are having a small wedding party and maybe use the excuse I used in the beginning when choosing a small party ("we are only having people who were invovled with us as a couple, ie his best friend was there the night we first started dating/talking, my girl friends lived with me the first year we were together") I would come up with an excuse like that. Or maybe don't even call her, wait until she calls you and then say, well gosh I hadn't heard from you, so I assumed you didn't want to still be in the wedding...

veil...I don't feel like a bride with out it, but I will take it off for the reception...

Welcome to the forum. Let us know if you have any questions.

I would talk to Anny about that, she is our OOT bag resident shopper.

if you don't mind the price, the first ones are nicer and will last to be worn again...you could always have them dyed later to another color that you would wear more often?

we will probably stay at Sandals Grande Ocho Rios...Sandals has honeymoon and wedding packages as well.

Congrats...I was planning on Ocho Rios for a while as well, so let me know if you have any questions. We are still going for our honeymoon.

Congrats Jen, we can't wait to see your pics...

welcome-you're big day is coming up soon.

Welcome-I am from Nevada also, but live in DC. Can't wait to hear all your wedding details.
