Amanda I agree 100%! Everything was perfect and I definitely stressed myself out worrying about every last detail. And on the day of the wedding, I didn't even notice the small details. Was busy having so much fun and so weren't my guests!

We did churros for our dessert

Aaaah thank you!!!!

The countdown is on... 2 weeks from today is our wedding! Leaving for Mexico on Wed 8/28. Wow I can not believe it's almost here!!!!

Thank you Amanda! GirlTravel your photos are amazing! You guys look like you had so much fun!

Hi Amanda! I am having 48 guests (including 2 kids aged 10 and 4) at my reception at Blue Terrace on Sun 9/01. 4 tables of 12 would be awesome - could you send me the layout options please? My email is taryn.b.mahoney@gmail.com. Thank you very much! Less than 60 days until I'm there!!

I am looking everywhere for a navy blue linen suit for my hubby to be and navy blue linen pants for the groomsmen for our Sept. 1 wedding on the beach. Help!

Would you mind emailing it to me too, please? taryn.b.mahoney@gmail.com Thank you!

Hi asposeep!! Sorry I meant to reply to you before and kept putting it off! Haha. I can't believe we're only 7 months away!!! On 8/31 we are doing a snorkeling excursion through this company: http://www.fatcatsail.com/. They pick you up at the hotel around noon I think, then drive you 45 mins to the catamaran and you are out on the water all day snorkeling and drinking rum and coronas until 5 or 6 then they drive you back to Azul Beach. I think 40 people fit on the catamaran so it will be our wedding guests only which will be so cool! If there are extra people, you can rent another boat to go out with the main catamaran. I went to Azul Beach Labor Day weekend 2012 and met the couple that got married on 9/01 and they recommended this catamaran and said it was so much fun! They did it in lieu of a rehearsal dinner which I'm thinking we may do, too. We have three nights of events planned so far. What about you? My fiance and I will arrive Wed 8/28 and our guests are arriving Thu 8/29 and Fri 8/30. On Fri we are having a welcome cocktail reception at the Blue Wave probably from 6-8. On Sat we are doing the catamaran during the day and maybe reserving a restaurant for dinner after? The Sun 9/01 is the big day! We're getting married on the beach and having the reception at The Blue Terrace. I haven't even begun to think about decorations or flowers yet. Everything is so expensive! I booked playaweddings for my photographer/videographer, booked the catamaran, ordered my invitations and I'm going to book DJ Dorremix. I also ordered "Welcome Totes" from wedding chicks when they were having a big sale for Black Friday. We picked our menu when we were visiting Azul Beach and will be adding paella and churros and not ordering a cake (other than the mini one included in my package - they weren't too good). Maybe also having a mojito bar during the reception. I would be down for sharing decorations especially lighting. What are your plans so far? Taryn

I am thinking 40-60 people. We reserved 30 rooms so we'll see! How many people do you think you'll have? Are you planning three nights of events? Also, the day you get married, most of my wedding guests and I will be out on a catamaran from like 1-7PM so you won't have to worry about us

Elizabeth is my WC as well and I am paying $800 fee for DJ Dorremix, and $800 for my my photographer/videographer team, which is one vendor. It is a terrible policy but there's no way I was using their approved DJ and photographer.

Asposeep, I am getting married the day after you at Azul Beach! So exciting!!

Hi Kaela, How much was the Mexican Trio if you don't mind me asking? I think Mariachi band at $900 is a bit much for an hour!

KaelaMcD, I'm so glad to hear that. I think I will most likely go with them for both photo and video so I don't have to pay the outside vendor fee twice. How long did you have to wait to receive the photos? Thank you!
