Happy Planning

Congrats!!! I am looking at March 2015.  I have been researching Jamaica resorts for the last 4 months and I am positive I will go with Iberostar Rose Hall Suites for my wedding and Iberostar Rose Hall Grand for my honeymoon.

I got engaged on July 18, 2012 (my 20th birthday) at the Brookfield Zoo Dolphin Show. I was completely surprised and now I could not be happier. 

 

My fiance and I have been dating 5 years and we will get married on May 25, 2015 somewhere in the Cancun area.

 

We have been looking at the Gran Caribe Real Resort so far. To us, it seems like a very pretty and romantic place to start our future. 

 

I would love any opinions that any of you would like to share. My fiance and I are very open to different ideas.

 

I look forward to hearing all of your plans and sharing mine with all of you!

 

Congrats to us all!! 

 

CONGRATS!!! I was originally a Nov 2014 bride but have decided to puch the date to 2015 sometime to give me a little more planning time.  So glad to see a 2015 post!!!! Excited!!! I am thinking March 2015 around St. Patrick's Day because GREEN is my FAVORITE color!!! :-)

Nice.

Yes. I will definitely be using a travel agent!

I am thinking about the Iberostar Rose Hall Suites for my wedding and Iberostar Rose Hall Grand for my honeymoon.  I haven't set my wedding date yet but I just decided on the location earlier this week. I am getting excited!!!!!!

I love it!!!

2014 Bride... I very excite to start early and have time for DIY items. I am at the process of reading reviews and locking in my wedding date. Has anyone else paid the deposit and locked in the date? I am thinking Jamaica. :-)  Iberostar Rose Hall...

WOW. These are nice How long did it take to make?

Thank you!! I needed this for my website also!! :-)

This is Awesome. I  am planning on doing a Boarding Pass also for my invitations. I would love to download the template but because I am new I need to post more to get to 150. They are beautiful!!!!!

Was the welcome dinner extra? I am trying to keep my budget as low as possible. Has anyone just gotten the Star Wedding package with no add ons? Or small add ons? I plan to do chair sash because my color is green. Any input is helpful. Thanks.
