Hi fellow brides!  I'm getting April 6th, but I'm hoping to find another bride getting married April 4th, 7th, or 8th who still needs a photographer.  I'm planning on bringing Sara Gray but she said that if I can find another wedding for her to shoot while she's in Mexico, then she'll give us both a great deal.  (less than the local vendors!)  PM me if you want more details!  http://www.saragrayphotography.com/ She's been featured on some of my favorite blogs...style me pretty, wedding chicks, grey likes weddings, etc.

Hello fellow Brides!  I'm getting married April 6th at a different resort and decided to bring our photographer.  I'm searching for another couple getting married in the area so that both of our cost will be less.  She can do April 4th, 7th, or 8th and maybe even a day on either end.  Here name is Sara Gray and her website is http://www.saragrayphotography.com  She is offering a killer deal (less than local photographers) if I can find another wedding for her.  PM me if you are interested and I can give you more info.  She has been featured on some awesome blogs like wedding chicks, style me pretty, and grey likes weddings to name a few!

1 and 4 but I'm leaning toward 1. Good luck!

Still looking at Photographers but the one I am leaning towards has been featured on Style me pretty, Green Wedding Shoes, Wedding chicks, and a few other blogs.  She looks great and is giving me a pretty great deal.  I'll let you know who we decide and then see if she'll also give you a deal since she'll already be there.  I'll PM about it when I narrow the details.

 

Thanks to those of you who voted for my sister!! Last night to vote and we find out in the morning.  My wrists can't take any more voting

Off the subject, but I need your help!  My sister is in the final 5 to win her wedding and she needs votes in the next 24 hours to win.  There are 5 girls in my family so my dad would appreciate the support   She's in the lead now, but every vote counts!  http://mix108.com/ulitimate-wedding-giveaway-voting/  Vote for Laura and Dave! I've been voting so much that I think I may get carpal tunnel...oh the things we'll do for family.  Thanks ladies!!

Hey Shills-Have you booked a photographer yet?  I think I am going to end up bringing one with and was thinking that another bride may want to split the travel cost to make it less expensive on both of us!  Let me know if you're interested.

We're giving out most of the bags to our local guests before we leave home so we don't have to lug them all there.  Happy planning!

 

That's a great idea, thanks. Can I ask what you'll end up spending per person with them? Like most brides, I'm trying to keep cost low where ever I can

Did any of the recent brides have rehearsal dinner off the resort? I am considering heading to puerto Morelos but I'm unsure where to go. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I'm trying to figure out what to do for a rehearsal dinner...did any of the recent brides go off site for a rehearsal dinner? I'm even considering a catamaran outing but need some advice on who to use etc. Any help would be great!!

Lov, love alchemy! You make a request on etsy and then the artist comes to you to let you know the cost, details etc. I was searching for a tree skirt and didn't see any listed that I liked so I used alchemy and had a great response.

PLEASE HELP!

I am about 6 weeks out from my wedding and trying to fill out the worksheet to send to Ana. I am so overwhelmed!!!! I still have people pending on coming to the wedding. Is this preliminary?

 

My time frame looks like this...

 

3:00 wedding on beach

4:00 cocktails at Blue Beach Bar

6:30 doors open to Ocen Front Terrace

7:00 intro bride and groom and wedding party

7:20 start serving dinner

 

when do I do the cake and the toast?

 

has anyone done a signature cocktail? if yes, what?

 

Are they flexable with the dinner choices? some of the choices are a little weird!

 

I thought I was ahead of the game!!!

Are you also having dancing etc? It might just be me, but it seems like a long time between the cocktail party and dinner. What do you think about doing the toast toward the end of dinner and then cake after that? We are considering doing an orange mojito for our signature drink but really haven't given it too much though. Sorry I can't be more help!

I'm looking for the allure 8634 in the ivory gold combo in a street sz 4. Please let me know if you are willing to sell this dress!

It seems like Pilar has more pull. I wish I would have gotten her! For those of you bringing photogs, are you paying for their stay plus a fee? I'm struggling with finding a great option for pics
