I just got back from the Walmart in Playa del Carmen, and they have a very small floral stand. Their flowers looked pretty good and you can't beat their prices.......a dozen roses for $85 pesos (under $7, USD) or 6 roses for $47 pesos......orchid stems for $110. pesos and asstd bouquets for $110. pesos......just thought I'd let you know - cheers

If having a needle here in Mexico is a concern for you, you could always get your hepatitis shots back home before traveling - that way you ensure you're totally safe - that's what I did to be sure

Great choices juliboley.....everyone looks great .......thx for sharing your pics ! Looks like it was an awesome wedding celebration - Cheers

That is good news, jennybober - as customizing your vows is not an option in many places, so well done in your choice of venues ! .....cheers

Having lived in the DR for 8 yrs, I can say that Nov is much more comfortable than July........It's different if you're going to be mainly inside in the a/c, but usually in the tropics, you're mostly outside. That's been my experience anyway, so thought I'd share.

WOW Cherina......your dress is exquisite! and I absolutely LUV the colour too.........great choice! 

........all the best to everyone, and hoping you all have the amazing wedding celebrations you wish for! Enjoy
