Welcome back FutureMrsYak! Wow you looked stunning! I'm prob going to go with gerber daisies and Lily's for bouquets. Did you get yours throught the resort??

Welcome back Danielle! Question for you past brides that used parasols for BM and MOH....did the girls hold them the entire ceremony or put them down? If they put them down did they blow around?

That dress is gorgeous! It looks great on you! I won't see my Magge until March .

Thanks ladies for all the nice comments about my e-pics! So happy we squeezed them in before the snow we got this weekend, and as I'm sitting here it's 9 degrees in Chicago. Jenny welcome back! Did you end up finding a videographer? MsGlave good luck! Can't wait to see your planning thread and hear from you when you return!

Lisa these pictures make me SOOOOO happy that we got an oceanfront room! Very cool! Thanks for your quick review also, you are FAST! Everything looked beautiful! Welcome back Mike, so glad to hear everything went well! I would love to see pics of the Mayan ceremony

Hey ladies, I did engagement pics on Sunday and already got them back! The photographer was great and in my opinion very reasonably prices. If any of you Chicago area brides are needing a photog I can give you his info, I know there a couple of you on here. I know there is a thread on here for engagment pics, but I always like to share with you girls. Here are a few of my favorites:

Congrats Lisa! You looked gorgeous!

Good luck! Hope you have a safe trip and a great wedding! Let us know when you are back!

Ohhhh no! I hope you are on a flight to Mexico right now as I'm typing this! Good luck! Hope your wedding day is PERFECT.

Ohhh wow! so sorry this is happening. It's quite rude of them! But it's YOUR day and no one else's so I wouldn't change a thing! I bet they change their mind right before the wedding.

Big congratulations to all the brides who's wedding are this week! I'm thinking of you ladies as I'm freezing here in Chicago mslisaaragon - November 22, 2010 Lisa DSO - November 24, 2010 Jenny310 - November 27, 2010

Welcome Melanie. This thread is so helpful and all the ladies are great! My wedding is May 1, 2011. We'll probably be down there the same time.

Thanks for the planning thread Lisa! Everything looks great!

Good luck Lisa! Can't wait to hear how everything turns out!

Welcome back Kerri!! So happy there was another successful Royal wedding. I can't wait to see everyone's pics! Mrs.G2B that dress is stunning! Ladies who is the outside vendor you all are using for centerpieces and flowers? I know it's on here, but can't seem to find it. I've been in contact with EW Events Cancun for some outside vendor info and they have been really great, not sure if it's the same company.

So sorry you are dealing with this. It's horrible thing that happened, however does he understand that it was anaccident? It could happen anywhere. It wasn't a bomb or an explosion done with purpose? It seems that the people that were against going to Mexico from the beginning are going to find any reason not to go. You and your fiance need to follow your hearts and have your wedding where you want, if you settle for what others want you'll regret it. I have an aunt who didn't want to go from the start and was coming up with every excuse possible not to go, one of them being " I don't like Mexican food" ahhhhhhh that one made me laugh. My cousin (her daughter) is pregnant now and is due a couple weeks after my wedding so that gave her a valid excuse not to go, but when I called to congratulate my aunt on becoming a grandma the first words out of her mouth were "Well that's it I can't go to Mexico now!" Bahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! I was stressing about people not coming etc, but I've stopped and realized that it's about my fiance and I getting married and choosing to spend the rest of our lives together. I'm sure if this is what you truly want your dad wouldn't miss it. He's just testing you, My fiance parents didn't give us the money they promised for the wedding when we decided to have the wedding in Mexico and they thought it would stop us, but it didn't.

Welcome back Jess! So glad to hear things went perfect! I looked at Wicky's for welcome dinner, but we couldn't afford it. It looks like a great place though. Can't wait to see pics and hear more about your trip and wedding!

Ohh wow, horrible. But really it could happen anywhere, I hope your guests are not freaking out.

May 1, 2011 at The Royal Playa Del Carmen. We live in the Bucktown area!

They do have Yoga in the mornings in the Gazebo and their is a gym too. However I did neither during my site visit, haha.
