So we have a confirmed case a couple hours from my house. Its in Northern Idaho in the same town as our lakehouse! Its this poor 60 year old lady. She just returned from a trip to texas sad.gif The good news is since she returned home she's only seen a couple people and has been in her home recovering.

See...just as easy to get SF in Texas as in Mexico! But that is no good for her. Every day there's a new school closing here. Luckily Mexico just downgraded the health alert from red to orange. And Mexico's health secretary says most businesses will reopen Wednesday nationwide...woohoo!

Mexico to allow most business to reopen

It feels so good to hear that others are not calling off their wedding. I am going to make my final decision tomorrow, but leaning towards keeping things the same. It's been such a headache trying to look for another location without guest paying more money. I am also fed up with calls and e-mails. I just stopped answering my phone. I really can't stress over this anymore. I am ready to party in Cancun!!

I am beginning to get anoyed by my guests and am wondering if anyone will actually show up. We are basically forcing our parents to go. (Just kidding- sort of) :)

 

If I get another email I don't know how sensitive I can be. I mean people are being nice and all "we DON'T want to stress you out but..." Then stop emailing me!

 

I am feeling agitated right now but I am happy that we are going because even though I am not feeling happy right now I cannot postpone this any longer. I can't focus and we have already been engaged 15 months. We are done. kwim? Plus I want to get all this wedding swag out of my too small apartment.

Hey LSUangel! Yes, I know how completely ridiculous about the mexican restaurants.

One of my friends is a trauma surgeon and he said he was walking past the "waiting area" at his hospital and he saw a mexican family walk in & this other patient sitting in the waiting area started freaking out and pointing at the family & telling them to put on masks simply b/c they were mexican. He was so disgusted! It's terrible how some people are behaving about this silly flu!

It makes me feel even more strongly about having a wedding in mexico to show my guests who haven't been there before just how wonderful the people and country are!

i agree it was seeming like it would be impossible to move the location and i'm honestly just SO done with it. so we are still proceeding as planned, unless now our stupid flights end up canceled because they are empty (wouldn't that be a b*tch?)! anyway, you have to keep your wedding as planned ... how else are we going to meet up for a drink on the beach? shots.gif

update on MOH: she got her doc to prescribe tamiflu, and he also told her that in light of the fact that there's swine flu now in philadelphia & bucks counties PA (where she lives) she might as well travel to mexico. that's exactly what i was trying to tell her ... thankfully her doc finally backed me up, and she'll listen to him!smile159.gif

That's great! If only every doc had the same outlook...my MOH and dad would be on a plane.

We went to about 4 different clubs, one was on the beach which was very cool. Let me know if you have any questions about Varadero, I'd be happy to help.
Thanks!!! You totally made my day. I've never been to Cuba before so any tidbits of advice are great. If you have anymore just PM me, love to hear them!!

Super stressed though with the whole photographer issue. We had such an amazing one booked for Mexico, and now I can't find one. All they have is the resort guy, and I was not happy with the photos at all... If anyone knows of any Cuban photographers please please let me know!

Heidi

Hey Heidi, Finding a great photographer in Cuba is not easy. I've heard good reviews on Peter VandeMaele, here's his website.

Also, here is recommendation for a local photog,

Have you considering bringing your own photog? Several of the Cuba brides have brought their own from Canada. Good Luck with your search.
