  4. yep I agree.. everyone there will know you are a Dr. so I dont think you need to be announced that way. Its different in a formal situation where you are meeting people but this is your friends and family so I think mr. and mrs. is the way to go
  5. Congrats and thanks for the great review and all the pics!!! You looked beautiful!
  6. mine was a cross b/w the weather/climate and the fact that noone had been to that part of mexico before.
  7. I agree with Nikki. You chose this girl to be in your wedding, and therefore chose to have her in the midst of all your friends and family for a whole week. You know how she is and who she is, and if she is 27 most likely she is not going to be changing. Your guests can make their own decision how they handle it, ignore it, stay away from it, but telling your BM to not be herself, basically is what your wanting to do, would probably only hurt things not resolve things
  8. I guess Im a little confused about your post. All the things you say you didnt know about before hand all seem like common sense to me? When you plan a destination wedding you know you are taking a risk at the weather being perfect so teh only thing you can do is research daily temps and plan to go at a time of year where its least likely to rain or have bad weather. A wedding at home could be rain/snow the day before, during and the day after as well. Crap weather happens, its uncontrollable. Also- a DW is supposed to be low stress and a vacation for everyone. I would hope none of your guests paid that money and then expected you to cater to them all week. If they didnt have fun or make the best of their stay their, rain or not, then thats their own fault. People can mope around and be upset or they can take it for what it is and make the best of it. And the whole point of a destination wedding IS to spend a week with your friends and family rain or shine - so i think we all know ahead of time we will be 'stuck' with our guests for a week. Thats no big surprise. If I only wanted to see my guests for one day, I woul dhave had a city wedding. I really hope this post doesn't scare future DW brides. THis forum does a great job with gathering and giving a ton of information to prepare you and give you hints at planning your wedding and keep it LOW stress. Im sorry you are upset with your weather, you won't be the first or the last bride to have crappy weather on their destination wedding. But I am happy you did take the time to enjoy your wedding day, b/c in the end it was and always will be your wedding day.
  9. Congrats Timberly, everything looks awesome! Can't wait to see it all pulled together on your big day
  10. I am also getting the time-out message more than before, and the forum is slower for me.
  11. Great thorough review! Dreams tulum is such an awesome spot for a wedding, just a gorgeous resort. Your pics are beautiful, congrats!
  12. Mayanlily- I dont think it really matters sometimes when you book with a charter. They can change their flights whenever they want. We were all supposed to fly out the same day but then in the end calgary and edmonton departures arrived on thursday and then winnipeg, saskatoon, regina and toronto arrived on friday.. It actually was nice b/c the thursday ngiht was just all friends and ALOT of fun. Its something you really dont have control over though if you are using a charter. Ours changed 2 months before our wedding and we had been booked for 1.5 years.
  13. I have never even heard of this but I am intrigued! Thanks for sharing!
  14. I have to admit that I am one of those brides who did not put photographery very high on the wedding planning totem pole. Probably pretty much last place. We had originally just decided to go with the resort photographer until we found out two months before our wedding that he had passed away suddenly. A couple girls on the forum here mentioned Nathan Cordova to me so I contacted him immediately and as luck(fate) would have it he was available to shoot our wedding. Nate has to be the most accomadating, easy going, light hearted guy we have ever met. He worked with us to make the trip as affordable for us as possible and spent almost four days JUST travelling. You never would have known it though by his attitude. We, and our guests, were beyond blown away with the pics Nate got for us and we have had so many friends and family comment on how incredible they are. I would recommend him, and do recommend, him in a heartbeat. Here are the links to his blog posts for our wedding: Destination Wedding – Huatulco (Nadine + Jesse Part 3) license to Still and day after shoot: Trash the Dress – Huatulco, Oaxaca (Nadine + Jesse Part 4) license to Still
  15. fun fun! No bd pics here so this pic will have to do

  19. Congrats Cara! ITs a great feeling isnt it Meagan, where did you use to live just up bow trail?? We have a condo right behind shaganappi golf course. We live in killarney, like 12 blocks from our condo -love this neighborhood. We have alot of friends out in new brighton, mackenzie town.. popular area!
  20. Scissors are the only thing that i wish I had that i forgot
  21. Thanks for sharing! Your dress and photos are beautiful!
  22. I agree with Loveisintheair - if this was the way your hubby acted before marriage, I would only think it would amplify AFTER you got married. You need to sit down with him and go over why he feels the need to do what he is doing and let him know it bothers you. As long as you sit back on the sidelines and let him continue doing this with no reprocussions, he will continue doing it. The only way he will change is if he wants to.
