I tried to get them out as quickly as possible. Everyone who is coming was able to book their trips without a problem. I have been wanting to post pics of my invitations. I did them myself (with my mom's help)... Laura- I love your invitations! My friends mom is going to help me do ours... I just have no idea what I want to do yet. Too many decisions haha

As far as the reception location, that's probably the thing I would choose first out of everything, just to make sure you get the location that you want. Although from the pictures, all the choices at the resort look nice! I am still not finalized on the rehearsal either...still waiting to hear back on that from Ana! Thanks Where did you choose to have your reception? I just can't decide!!! hahaha

Anyways I think you have to have at least 150 posts before you can open or download attachments on here! So far not a lot of planning has been done - originally we started planning an at home wedding (we've been engaged for two years) so I've been in the process of cancelling things here.. Although I did just purchase my wedding gown last saturday and was able to take it home that day (I was the first one to try it on!!). Other than that I've just been gathering ideas and started making my invitations/stds! I feel like I'm waaaaaaaaaay behind some of the other girls on here. Girl- I feel like I am so behind too... HAHA... Lets see what others may say

I meant to say that I cannot open attachments on here. so annoying- haha! Anyhow- For the people that are closer to their dates, should I be stressing that I have NOTHING done for my wedding... I mean I have ordered my dress and I am sending my invites out next month. (we already did the save the dates and have 30 booked so far) But that is all we have done. I have not picked flowers, where I want the rehearsal or reception, menu,etc.

rdsjcr replied to KLaBate54's topic in Honeymoon Talk
We have decided to honeymoon at Secrets Maroma as well- so I cant wait to hear about your trip!! -
Cool- what is your date? I still can open things on here- and I have talked to Ana- but not a LOT-- I asked a ton of ??S though Have you gotten a lot of planning done.. I know it is far away but I have done nothing! It makes me nervous! (I know I want to get married on the beach but that is all I know) Any suggestions, etc??

I am going to have about 40 guests.... and I am bringing my own photographer... I can't decide which package would be the most affordable for me?? I mean the $799 would be free (and doesn't come with much) but I dont need the photos- which is part of it.... What do you guys think-- especially you guys that have already gone through this process. Thanks sooo much

I cannot open it and aqua and orange or coral is that I am thinking for my colors, too... although I have a ton in the air My email is [email protected] Thanks! Also to all- I have been emailing back and forth with Ana about the concerns and she is talking with management....she says. And she told me that she has a wedding Jan. 9th that is being held in a more private location- that they have never done before that she would fwd the pics to me... I will send along once I got them.

We are getting married at Dreams Riviera Cancun.... and then going to honeymoon (minimoon) at Secrets Maroma Beach. We will be in Mexico for 11 days total (our guests will be with us for the first half at Dreams) -- then we will go to Secrets by ourselves for the last half

I am getting married here Oct 24... do you guys know how much in advance we need to know what package we want? I have been emailing with Ana... but I guess we all know- it takes several days to hear back, so it has been a bit hectic and stressful. I can't decide which one would be the smartest financial decision for me. We will have about 30-60 guests. (still in the beg. stages of save the dates and bookings, so dont know 100% how many will come) I don't know if the basic package + add ons or the dreams of love + add ons will be more or less than the other. Any ideas? Also- are you guys going to do a site visit before your wedding? If so- when? And we haven't done anything other than book our place. Ana seems so difficult to work with... should I be stressed... or does everything come/happen closer to our actual wedding date? thanks

Hey guys... I have tried to read this whole thing- while working and not getting yelled at by my boss at the same time But does anyone know - or what are your plans for the Rehearsal Dinner. I have read a little about people doing them at a restuarant onsite-- and it being a part of the all-inclusive (it just not being very private- as all other resort guests are there).... But what are you guys doing? Thanks.

rdsjcr replied to ohiobride15's topic in Destination Wedding in Riviera Maya, Cancun & surrounding areas
Raluca -- you were a gorgeous bride and oh my- those pics are stunning! I was looking to get married in Punta Cana and now I am thinking Riveria Maya... and I am looking at Aventura. Quick quiestions-- did it bother you and your guests that you are not directly on a beach? How easy is it get to the beach? Also- I have a friend who does photography on the side and is willing to do for our gift, but after looking at your pics- how can I not go with him...would you say he is affordable? thanks and congrats!! -
