Some nice jewellery is always nice for the moms and aunts. Maybe get something in your wedding colours?

I love the flowers for your hair and I think the petals look great!

What was the price range that your guests were paying? (if you dont mind me asking) I see you are in Cambridge so atleast Ill know in CDN funds! How did you like the wedding there? Was it at all private? Any info on the location would be really appreciated

Thanks everyone for your input. Booking at different hotels would not be an option since it would mostly be family coming. There are a lot of single people in my family so they all want to be together so they know someone there. I love Dreams Cancun but from here were looking at around $2000pp. I guess its due to the flight. Im going to keep my fingers crossed that SOMEWHERE will be affordable and nice as well. Thanks everyone for making me feel better

I think they look really nice, so if you have the money to spare go for it! If not it will still be a beautiful ceremony!

I think its great! As far as I can tell, you seem to have a good sense of humour, so I think this would show that off!

I love all those spots!! Outside on the beach looks amazing though!

Yes I really want to go to Dreams Cancun, but its looking like it will be a lot per guest as well. Do you know of any other good hotels in Mexico that I could check into?

Any info would be great!! Thanks a bunch!

Maybe Ill bring a big book and just flatten some of them in it. They probablly wouldn't notice that...I hope! LOL

One of my gf was married in Punta Cana in November and it was gorgeous!! Yes I looked into the DR a bit Im just not sure what resorts are good there. Where was she married? Cuba is out because we have some family living in the USA right now. Theyre Canadian Citizens but it would just be a big hassle to get them flights there. We are planning January, but also pricing April. January is nice though because my son will only be 23 months which means free flight!

I actually really liked the Dreams Resort. I just think it has everything I want for my wedding. Can I ask why you picked the one in Cabo? Just outta curiosity. At first I was going for Tulum, but then I prefered Cancun, I havent looked at the one in Cabo though.

She is pricing a bunch of places (dont know what they will cost yet) but she said the Grand Bahia and Riu Ocho Rios in Jamaica would be about 1950pp.

Those are all really cute ideas!!

See, I know its my day and that 2000 isnt a whole lot, but with my sister there is 4 of them coming so it will be more like $5550 for them all. We already have basically no friends coming and my FI doesn't have any family coming. It just seems to be getting smaller by the minute. Guess its just a bit upseting that no one seems to want to come anymore.

I LOVE Gerber Daisys. I am keeping them as a boquet option! Does anyone know if you can bring how your boquet after the ceremony? Can you bring flowers on the plane?

Im going to try making one in photoshop one day I think. I didnt know if there was a site that did them for free or something, but I dont really wanna pay for it since the funds are tight!! Thanks everyone for the ideas!

Welcome to the board!! I hope you find it very helpful!

I was so excited about this wedding, but its not looking so great. I went with my sister today to the travel agent, and she was telling us some prices for the hotels I liked and they were all around 2 grand per person! My sister told me I cant ask people to spend that much and basically made it out that she wouldn't come. So her and the TA said I should look for some less exspensive 4 star places. Im pretty bumed out about this. Its my day, and maybe thats really selfish but I want it to be beautiful. Now it seems like that may be out of the question.

OMG WHY did I look at the VS bridal collection?!?! LOL Now I want so much stuff!!!

Thanks for all the info! It was very helpful! Now I just have to see how affordable this place will be! LOL Just a thought about the milk, wont all the cakes be made with milk? I thought that was a staple in making cakes? I could be wrong though.

This is what mine looks like. We do not have wedding bands yet, but I am planning on having it white gold with a sapphire/diamond pattern.

If it is to do with pixels then there is really no way to get rid of the blurryness. Do you know what the PPI (pixels per inch) is of the photo? Basically to make it look good on the program you would want it to be around 300ppi, but deffinetly no less that 200ppi. If you have photoshop you could try to bump up the ppi, but it would take a lot of work and youd probablly have to do some rendering as well. Sorry if thats confusing, but theres not too much you can do to fix a pixel issue.
