My FI is 14 months older than me.

You're planning thread is great. I love the colours!

So cool! I have that copy sitting somewhere at home right now.

I used to love wearing high heels but I now work in an office with poured concrete floors and it's a killer on the back. So sad.

Welcome! I think I stumbled upon this site before I was engaged but didn't sign up until after I was. Happy planning!

Welcome! Happy planning. I have found the forums so helpful.

Ha ha...thanks...89 more to go!

I've only been on the sunset one. They served as a snack on board and lots of mamajuana

Wow! They look great. Okay, my Michael's and Staples officially suck...I couldn't find any punches that weren't a double punch or any pretty envelopes. I ended up having to use plain white mailing envelopes....boo.

I like the blue too. Good job!

Wow! They look great...and I love the step by step instructions.

Very pretty! I made my fiance design and cut out the boarding envelopes too

I'm sorry. My sister is older than me and has been with her man for over 10 years. She was pissed when I first told her I was engaged (my fiance and I have been together 8 years) . She came around eventually, but I was upset at first. I think it is completely understandable to be frustrated or angry with the situation. I hope it gets better. Last year, two of my cousins were getting married. The older brother got pissed off that the younger brother was getting married before him and refused to go to his wedding! It is sad what people do sometimes.

Very pretty!

I think it's kind of cool, but I don't know if I would want my fiance having it as his wedding band.

Thanks!

Pretty!

I stayed here in November 2008 and it was great! The travel agent suggested it for our wedding, but we didn't want to get married in Mexico.

Ahh...I'm glad I'm not the only one. It seems like I'll never get there.....

Too funny!

I love these colours. I really wanted to use fuchsia and orange as my colours, but a friend was married last year in Punta Cana and these were her colours I didn't want everyone to think I was copying her given that it would be all the same people at our wedding.

You did a great job. Love calla lilies.

So pretty!

Cute.

And was this not the couple that was completely smashed and going around kicking cars in Playa? And then wondered why they got arrested? I feel for everyone. Trying to pick a place to get married was probably the most stressful part of my planning so far. Quote: Originally Posted by RoxyBridetoBe Good for you for sticking to your plans!

We put a down payment on a wedding package at the Gran Caribe in January for our November wedding, even though some of our guest were unsure and skeptical about travelling to Mexico. We kept reassuring people that Cancun is safe everytime bad press came out about Mexico. Then, this one horible story came out. It involved a woman from our home town who travelled to Playa Del Carmen with her fiance. She alleged that Mexican police arrested them and rapped her multiple times while they beat her fiance. I was horified when I briefly heard the story on the radio, but after reading the details of this story, my fiance and I thought the whole thing sounded sketchy. However, the damage was done. People thought I was nuts to go there. Some friends and family didn't want to go. We ended up cancelling the wedding in Cancun and booked a date at the Dreams Palm Beach Punta Cana DR. It did take a lot of stress off of us, but there's no place quite like Cancun. Part of me wishes we had not cancelled.
