We actually had a romantic dinner on the beach during our honeymoon and it was fine. It was REALLY windy and we had no problems with sand in our food. I'd say go for it!

I think Vicky is the only one, since she did one of my guest's hair as well. If you want your bridesmaids as well they might be able to call in an additional stylist. Otherwise I would say start EARLY like have the first appt at 8am or something.

Ahh that sux! I'm looking for new brushes too! I'll have to keep an eye out. Let me know if any of you find a legit vendor!

We actually just did the symbolic ceremony...ironically because I didn't want to have blood taken in Mexico...in retrospec thats hilarious...anyways...we wrote our entire script for our ceremony and the minister performed it without issue. I would check with Perla and see but I think you can still put your own touches on the legal ceremony. I'm pretty sure that Missy got legally married down there and wrote some of her own...she might be able to help out...

Well girls...GOOD NEWS! She didn't speak to me much but was completely civil to everyone else. She seemed to get along with my husbands (gosh thats weird to say!) parents and family which was particularly good seeing as it was the first time they all met. There were a few zingers in there that Joe and I were the only ones that caught but we didn't let it bother us. It was nice for her to be able to see how happy we are together (since she really didn't believe it) and how happy everyone else was for us too. Hopefully in a few years she'll calm down and see that her little girl is all grown up.

Okay girls...I'M BACK!!! Everything was absolutely SPECTACULAR! Like everyone has said before me...trust Perla..she really does know what she is doing. It was so frustrating trying to get a hold of her but in the end we couldn't have asked for anything bettter. I haven't gotten my pro pics back yet but...our photogs have featured us on their blog Studio979 Wedding photography, Houston, Lake Jackson We are under dress, meet cenote and Sarah and Joe do Cancun... I'll post more pics in this thread later( I know how much we all love them)...and I'll be doing a full planning (late I know) and review thread as well which I'll add links to in my siggy. I'm just still trying to get back to reality. To answer a few questions I saw: 1. If you fly in your own photogs and they stay at the resort there is no additonal fee. Ours cut us an amazing deal and we were blow away by the photos we've seen so far. I'd say don't comprimise and use the resorts if you don't feel comfortable. Ours were about the same price and we had three full days with them. 2. We changed resorts for the honeymoon (we went to the Iberostar Grand Hotel in Playa Paraiso) we loved the Paradisus but it was nice to get some alone time and be at an adults only location. 3. Our ceremony was at 4pm and it was perfect (we got married on December 12th). We had plenty of time to snap some family photos and get some of us on the beach...however that was knowing that we had all the next day to get some more pictures. If you want all your pictures done after the ceremony you may need an extra half hour or so. 4. We hired DJ Bob and he did a GREAT job. He announced what we wanted announced and did a great mix. (More later in my review) 5. Vicky is now the hair stylist at the Paradisus. She speaks some english but make sure you do a trial the day before. Also book your hair SUPER early. My appt was at 1 and I dont think I was done till 3. I was actually late to the wedding (my poor hubby!) She did do an amazing job and uses enough hair spay to make your hair STAY despite the wind. On a side note...I got violently ill the night before we came back, to the point that I needed to be taken to the hospital via ambulance and stayed over night missing our flight back. The Iberostar handled the whole situation with the utmost professionalism and was able to change all of our flights, transfers, etc without issue or charge.( I was beyond pleased with the level of customer service) In addition we did book travelers insurance and we had $5K for medical expenses. We haven't tried to file the claim yet but I would recommend tacking it on to your trip if you can. They were unable to use our normal insurance and dealing with them on a regular basis I am sure they will decline anything from mexico. I'll let you know how the filing goes but it was a little bit of a relief when we stumbled upon the coverage in our travel documents. Like I said more to come...

Alright girls it is finally my time....we are leaving tomorrow and getting married on Saturday. I don't have time to do a planning thread now but I'll do a belated one and wedding review when I get back! I'll be sure to post pictures too!!

I completely agree. I just watched my DVRed episodes last night...what the hell was up with the cape routine that Legacy and Ashley did? That was the choreography all the way in my opinion. I want the WOW routines! I'm sure some of these dancers are quite capable if they are given the routines to SHOW IT OFF!

I'm so sorry to hear that you are going through this! From personal experience I know that weddings can bring out the best and WORST in some people. Especially family members. You start to see who is still holding on to you and trying to "protect" you whether you need it or not. I wouldn't tell your FI about what your brother has said. Odds are its his way of dealing with you getting married and he'll probably regret his actions in a few weeks or months. I would sit down with your brother and see if there is something else on his mind. Sometimes people have a hard time expressing what they really need to say or explain what is really going on. It could be something in his life that he is un-intentionally taking out on you. Keep us posted! Lots of hugs...
