Hey Kary, Thanks so much for your reply! I appreciate your help in all the advice, since we officially have a date booked of 4/21! I'm super excited! I'm kinda nervous about squeezing all this planning in 3 months, my biggest concern is how all of our guests are going to get booked etc in that short amount of time! But, I'm sure it will all work out! Did anyone take advantage of the group rates offered by the Riu? My travel agent worked something out where every 6th person booked gets to stay free. Thought that would be perfect for family or anyone who can't afford to make it, but I think all guests that count towards the number have to arrive on the same day...so that may be a little tough with planning due to conflicts of people's schedules. Also, that includes a semi-private dinner, so perhaps we could use that as our rehearsal dinner and then the wedding package includes a semi-private dinner as well for the reception. I do not think we will have more than 40 people, so hopefully I will not have to have our reception somewhere where we have to pay per person for the food. I guess before I can even start considering reception sites we gotta have some people RSVP'd huh? This is all so up in the air and I'm usually a planner but we are so anxious to get married, I'm kinda winging it lol. My fiance has "courted me" the old fashioned way for the last year and a half, we are not living together until we are married and so needless to say we are SO ready to get married in a hurry. We are only 111 days away from being able to start our life together!!! Its going to be so amazing! Dress shopping next weekend at David's bridal, keep your fingers crossed I find the perfect dress!
