I am not a big cake fan either so my FH and I decided on cupcakes for our AHR, we get to have different flavour and can have them decorated any way we want.

Congrats and welcome. I am getting married in Cuba January 2010 and have found so much great info on this forum, I am sure you will too.

My AHR is going to cost about $8000 for 125 people. We were able to find a great wedding package with the caterer we chose. It includes the hall rental, a buffet style dinner, late night snacks, DJ, decorations, cleanup and all licenses and any insurance needed. Its perfect for my fiance and I, very little work required for me.

My Fiance and I chose a destination wedding because we couldn't agree on a location here ( I wanted a church wedding, he didn't) but we both loved the idea of having a destination wedding and getting married on the beach. We are having about 125 people at our AHR. Friends and family who aren't able to attend our wedding in Cuba. I am really close with my co-workers and really wanted them to help celebrate but there was no way they could all get time off at the same time. Our AHR isn't going to be very traditional, just a big celebration with friends.

Congrats! and welcome to the forum. I joined recently too and have found so much great information and tips.
