Jen glad your keeping it! It takes forever to find the right "one"! Yay you!

Hey ladies... I need a bit of dress help. Did anyone order their dress online. I have tried on waaaay too many dresses and not found "the one" yet. But of course I see a ton of things I like online and in magazines. Just wondering if anyone went the online route. So far I have checked out Store of Brides and Peri dress...but I'm chicken.

Congratulations Valerie! I didnt send out a letter..so good luck. I did e save the dates through weddingwindow then invitations. I think I will possibly send a letter out over the holidays let me know if you get any good ideas. When is your wedding I am 5-22-2010.

Thanks Lauren and Jennifer, Jennifer what is a tide to go stick? Lauren did you have food served at your pre-cocktail hour or did everyone just meet? Gracias ladies!

May 22 2010 Excellence Playa Mujeres ~Cancun~ Have you all sent your invitations out yet? I just ordered mine..wondering if I'm late.....

Hi MaireSam I love your photos! Question was your coordinator supplied by the resort or seperate? Thanks!

Hey Lauren question about your dj...did he play music for everything ceremony coctail and reception also when did you use the mariachi band?

Hey ladies! I've been away for a month and so happy to get back planning! Hello to all the brides I dont know, I am getting married on 5-22-10. I just ordered invitations..so excited to get them out! Question I want to plan a group activites for my guests probably about 20 people...any suggestions free or paid? I am thinking of a meet in greet in the lobby bar the Thur or Friday b4 the wedding and i think a group outing or activity I think would really help people get to know one antoher. Also for the gift/welcome bags....so far my ideas are suntan lotion, bug spray, neosporin, fans, flip flops (mayb)...any other suggestions. When I get enough points I will post decoration options...Yamina emailed me a ton.

Welcome Cat! I havent chosen my reception place either I'm 9 months and dont have a final guest count like you. I have made inquires regarding chairs flowers food etc...its seems better to email Yamina multiple q's at one time since it takes her a week or so to respond....Happy Planning!!!

Hi Cat I'm getting hitched at EPM too 5-22-10 so just a short time after you..so exciting..Welcome!

Hey Lauren....so glad it went well..just talking with you all makes me know everyone of us will have a perfect wedding..btw Lauren I'm so not up with times..I'm not on facebook, my space, twitter, nada. So when you get your pix can you post them I would love to see them. Mesita I'll see about the photog..if i dont find anyone less expensive i like i may set up a registry for them...keep you posted. Also ladies if anyone is interested Yamina can get Tiffany/Chivari Chairs $7 per chair. Which would save the 100.00 vendor fee if you get them through her.....Peace & Love http://traciandlee.com

Hey Jewels there is already another forum for EPM brides with a ton of info you should check out...just reading it helped me answer most of my questions its listed right below this one you started "Excellence Playa Mujeres Brides Post Here!" see ya over there!

So Mesita lets talk about your wonderfull pix...did you pay for your photgrapher to fly out I noticed he isint a local to mexico?...did you get a good deal or did you bite the bullet and pay a ton...it looks like you did..they are awesome?

Lauren...have a wonderful day!!! I'm so excited for you!! Mesita...wow wow wow wow..and more wow...the pix the dress(s) the flowers..wow.. Wedding website done traciandlee.com excpet for the music part..still working on it..

Hey Ladies, I hired a wedding coordinator in the states to help me, but lets just say I need one in Mexico. I am getting married at Excellence Playa Mujeres. Their onsite coordinator is streatched thin and takes weeks to answer emails...so I am thinking it would be better to have someone else to communicate...i'll look at the suggestions you all have made..thnx Traci

I'm currently using destination weddings and it has been kind of interesting..I'm on my 3rd coordinator the first one just didnt listen to what I wanted the 2nd got sick, so far the 3rd Nancy has been helpfull...but like someone else posted (probably not about her) she is all over the board and chatty and I have to rangle the conversation to get what I need out of it. Overall I would rather have a coordinator than not, but I'm not sure I would choose this company again...

Hey Jen, a bit more website help..I guess I am not a techi and or i'm impatient ..how did you download the pix from trip advisor and the epm website..i spent a while trying to figure it out last night. My website is almost up and running I just have to fill in a few more sections and add pix and music...cant wait to share..

Awesome!!! I'm so glad to hear it went well for you!!

Hi Megan, where did you get your logo..I love it!

Thanks ladies...I LOVE this blog..

Jennifer on your website where did you get the photos for your excellence album...your website is awesome btw..

Hey Ladies, Aside from Jennifer do any of you have weddding websites? I am trying to get mine together and want to get some ideas...thanks!

I'm so happy for you!! Dont forget about us!

Hey ladies I am getting married in a year and will probably do the website rsvp then formal invites..I am really looking for the perfect website..any suggestions on ones with beach themes...thanks

Hey Ladies, Regarding menu options did anyone get information on a buffet? My friends went to a wedding at EPM a year ago and said the buffett was awesome and had the best lobsters they ever tasted. Also did you all do Save the Dates and then invitations? Or just invites? Trac
