We are getting married on a Thursday. We fly in on the Sunday and have to be there 3 business days before we can get married per the resort so Thursday it is!

This is an awesome idea and they look great. I am for sure going to do these now.

Both look awesome, but I agree with Josietoms. Go with your heart and you will know what is the best in the end.

This whole thing worries me too with not knowing who I am dealing with in advance. I am not worried about my hair so much but I think I will bring back up makeup just in case it turns out bad.

Quote: Originally Posted by midnight24 anyone have any luck finding some nice ivory dressy flip flop/sandals? I am looking for these too! We are getting married in a gazebo surrounded by fountains so I think I will a lower heel for sure. I don't need to fall in the drink on my way down the aisle!

We actually got a shirt by Island Passport which is a sister company to Tommy Bahama for the larger size and cheaper price which worked out awesome.

Quote: Originally Posted by Princess402 We have had a couple of our guests ask if it would be okay if friends of theirs, etc, came along to Mexico as well. I hope not too many people do this (and I don't think there will be) because then everyone is going to be going off with their own group of friends during the week, and not doing things "together" as we are hoping. I really want all our guests to get to know each other and have fun together the whole week! But you can't stop people from going on vacation at the same time/place you are. So for anyone that's asked we have said that it's fine for their friends to come to Mexico of course (and actually it's more than fine cause we're getting every 6th room free, so if they book with our group then it's potentially more $$ back for us!), but that unfortunately there is an additional cost per person associated with coming to the wedding and so they wouldn't be able to come to the actual wedding and reception. I think that seems reasonable and everyone has been fine with that! We have decided to go this same route as well by not having them at our reception. But I think there are only a couple of extra people coming so it should not be a huge issue.

I got the same item but might also DIY some tanks and stuff with iron ons but not sure if I want to do it for the whole bridal party or not.

I agree that is a great price especially when you only have to get 5.

Hanging jewels is an awesome idea. Now I must add that to my to-do list for sure!

I think we are going to give some to people before they leave so they have it right when they get there. It saves room packing in your luggage. Of course I have people from out of country too so I will have to pack those seperately since I won't see them before. Old Navy has men's flip flops and I think I am adding those in to my kits for sure for the guys.
