I came across this site http://www.yourselegantly.com/product_info.php?products_id=3253{8}87 Discount Pashmina Wedding Favors Gifts I cant even tell a difference between these two options, I am hoping to get another 6 or 8 to have 1 for each lady guest (minus kids) thoughts I wouldn't worry about slight differences. If all the pashminas were the same color it may be noticeable, but since you have 3 different colors I doubt anyone will notice any small differences in quality

We were looking at the Grand Porto, Sandos Playacar, Occidental Grand Xcaret and then we found the Princess. Over all I think it is what we are looking for. I have been ignoring the bad reviews for that over all it has REALLY great ratings on trip advisory and on this site. Price is a big issue for us. The three other hotels we were looking at just kept getting more expensive. We are not doing any kind of reception or dinner so that didn't matter, and now it looks as if we will have too many people for the gazebo (over 50) so the beach is our only other option. Every beach really looks the same. (ceromony wise) We really liked the property style and heard lots of positive things from the brides on this site. I wish we could have gone on a site visit but wanted to put the money towards the wedding trip. Oh well I guess I really needed this site more than I thought! Good Luck! We haven't reserved anything yet, still trying to decide which resort we are going with. Price is a huge issue for us too, I'm shocked at how much some of these resorts cost! I always though February was a bit cheaper... I think all those last minute sales I saw earlier this year threw me off. Your ceremony on the beach will be beautiful. I really think these resorts should throw in the site visit for free if we book a lot of people . It would help so much with the planning.

I'm envious of your italian wedding! Good luck with the planning

Wow, thats coming quickly! Good luck, and stay stress-free
