!Ohla!

I am feeling some stress now that my wedding is approaching (3 months). I have a busy career and it seems like the stress is taking some fun out of being engaged and wedding planning. It is supposed to be fun right?

 

I became engaged in September, and after waiting 7 years (yes 7) I did not want to wait much longer so I decided on April 21, 2007. We visit Mexico quite often and have picked our favorite spot Las Caletes - a beach hideaway in Puerto Vallarto Mexico. I had a small wedding in mind and now 55 people are booked with travel arrangements and I have not even sent out invitations yet, beware - the save the date cards really work! This is actually a good thing although I make it sound smile41.gif I have 20 people on my list that I have no idea about WHO ARE THEY?? popcorn.gif

 

A great site to use if your just getting started for your accomodations is DestinationWeddings.com - Destination Weddings and Honeymoons. ITS FREE & My wedding travel coordinator is awesome. Saving us $ left & right. Message me if you want more info or to see my pages..

Buying my dress a couple days ago relieved tons of stress. Now I am doing a custom invitation and I think I am going to choose ww.messageinabottle.com. They are not the cheapest out there but so far they have been the most responsive.

 

Wow, this board may be what I need. I already feel better after that little vent session smile124.gif . How do I sent a member a private message? Ana is having her wedding at the same location as I am, so we have lots to chat about..

Hi and welcome! Congrats on doing so much already. And do not stress you should be able to enjoy this. Las Caletas is beautiful and if you talk to Ann I am sure you can both help each other. If you go to the top right where the welcome sign is, you will see that it says PRIVATE MESSAGES. Click on that and then you go to SEND NEW MESSAGES on the left hand side and type in Ann's name AKH and whoila you have your message. Good luck with everything and let us know how we can help.

welcome welcome welcome!! i am so glad to see another Las Caletas bride on here! I think you're the 4th ... and we have 2 of them getting married in January - so make sure you stick around to hear all about it when they get back! I am getting married on June 8th - but I haven't really started many of the details yet. What are you doing for decorations on the table? What about music? I have so many questions!

 

What dress did you buy - I can't wait to see a picture!

 

Ok, I will stop babbling ... let us know if we can help you at all! There are a ton of brides on here, some already married, and they can help with just about anything!

    • Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!
    • Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
