I just got married on the 19th of January. It was amazing , of course! But we did end up having our rehearsal dinner at Fajita Republic, I DO NOT recommend anyone even having dinner there. We had gone last year and it was fabulous, but since then it has changed locations and staff (not owner). They were so incredibly rude to say the least. Just so you girls know... Don't make the same mistake we did.

Yeah I emailed Nicole today and was like is this possible? I did look at several sites to try and get an average. But lot's of them said rain. Oh my. There is only supposed to be two days on rain January!! Geez But I am hoping that they are wrong, it's all I have to go on. I have been going to PV for 4 or 5 years now and there has only been 1 day of rain. And now the second day is going to be my wedding day!? Pazoop, here is hoping. Most of the forecasts I saw for Tuesday were good!!

i leave in 2 days... and i just checked the weather forecast... fri - cloudy, sat - cloudy, sun - cloudy, mon (our wedding) - rain, tues - cloudy...... is that even possible? MY GAWD!

I hadn't planned on taking any extra suitcases... I have table cards and a guest book!! That's it! I leave in 8 days.... We are so excited! I can't believe it's my turn.

15 days til we leave. I am so excited. And as far as individual desserts, we were doing creme brulee, chocolate mousse and arroz con leche. (plus fruit and brownies for those who are not interested in those) $5 per person... Which to me is a great price! Oh and a tequila cake. ha!

hey guys, I know we talked a lot about rehearsal dinners. I want to have mine at Fajita Republic. I know a lot people wanted to or tried to have it there, but was anyone successful?

When I get a price on individual desserts I will let you guys know for sure....

Ann - We arrive on Friday night, get married on Monday. Then my family leaves the following Friay (who will be taking my dress with them). Then we leave a week after that. So there will be about three days of drying time!!

Did all or any of you trash your wedding dress the night of or the next day? (By trash I guess I mean get wet). I want to, but am thinking about bringing it home all wet? Hmmm.... Was it a total hassle. I will be sending it with my mother if I do do it.

Pazoop - My guests and I are all arriving on the 16th.. with Nolitours. We looked at sunwing but chose the Nolitour package cause the flight left early in the morning so we could hang out on friday on the beach. And of course they called my this weekend and said that they cancelled that flight and everyone will be leaving on a different flight 13 hours later. I was mad, but I can't do anything. All they could say was "all flights are subject to change". I am just glad the wedding is not on the 17th, then I would be really mad. So I wish that I had gone with sunwing now. Cause we are now arriving in PV at 1230 am... It'll be hard for the young kids. But whatever. We are staying for two weeks, so my guests will be flying home without us and as for the second week.... it's a surprise. So I have no idea.. I was told a different hotel and I was told to pack light. Which just means I will be sending an extra suitcase home after the first week with my mom.

JaimeLynne - Hopefully the tequila cake works out I will take pics for sure. And the creme brulee and mousse is not included in the price, Nicole is working on a price to have them done for me. But because we are not having a cake which is included she said she would take some money off the price of the individual desserts. I'll let you know.

Brittany - we are not much into cake either but don't get me wrong I love dessert. So we are having individual desserts for everyone. They can choose either chocolate mousse or creme brulee. So delicious.... They are my favourites. It's all individual I guess, whether it's cake or tequila!! It's all yummy.

Julia - It is actually pretty funny that we are so close together... I will try not to make Nicole to exhausted, so she has some energy left for you! Ha. We are staying at the Tropicana hotel. We have stayed there many times before and love it! Where are you guys staying? When do you fly down?

I am getting married on the 19th of January and for a cake we are doing a round pyramid of tequila shots all lit on fire. With peoples names engraved on them!! Probably not much help... But it's very us!

Oh and Holley can you put a link up to your review, or can someone..? For the life of me I can't figure out this website..

Jweekley - PV is certainly not a fish only kinda place, my girlfriend and I have been going there for years and the beach life is fabulous.. In fact we do nothing but lay on the beach. And it is fabulous every time..

I actually just asked Nicole how much Fernando would be. Because I am also debating doing my own hair and make-up. She quoted me at $220 US. Which for me is too expensive. I am pretty good at doing my own stuff.

I am the same way... I have tonnes of things to do! But not stressing about it. I have the dress but need to do alterations still. 77 days til the big day. I am just super excited, and I am sure everything else will fall into place. But starting to wonder what I should get for my girls?

We are also having our welcome dinner at Fajita Republic, well I should say want to have it there.. cause we have yet to book it! But we loved it there as well. Great food and atmosphere, plus decent price. And very close to where we are staying, right downtown at the Tropicana!! It's getting close and I am getting excited but I still have a lot to do!! Yikes!!

I have read the whole thread, but have been a little busy up at the cottage all summer.. So I will go and catch up... thanks!

i have been putting off all of my wedding details. But listening to you ladies, has motivated me to get started!! And made me realize that I have a lot of stuff to do. Any one have any good recommendations for the dinner before.. but down town vallarta, not nuevo?

it's been awhile for me.. been so busy. But do/did you guys plan on having all your guests staying at the same hotel. Or is everyone just saying where ever they want to stay? I am having a hard time organizing the travel aspect!!

ya I guess I probably wont have as much energy as I thought. But like you said the older folks will probably want to get back to their hotel... But my family and friends are the type of people who like to make it last and last. We are staying right downtown PV.. so I just thought that even if I didn't want to continue the party then I could at least provide a spot for everyone else if they so desired. Plus it's not like you wouldn't have the rest of the week to continue the celebrations.

Congratulations Rachel. I really really can't wait for photos of the ceremony... Rachel what time did you guys end up leaving? And did you continue the party anywhere else? Or just call it a night? We confirmed our date as well. January 19th. It is penciled in anyways. But we are thinking of continuing the party afterwards in Vallarta. Did anyone else do that? Or am I thinking that I am going to have way more energy then I think I am.

I also have a question... are the majority of you LC brides doing the premier package? or did any of you do paradise package?
