I hope they fit him because I got them for $38 and I would be soooo happy to have his outfit done! Now if I could only find my shoes...

We ended up finding our shirts at Steinmart...they had lots of choices for guys shirts! We went with an off white for the guys and a white shirt for my FI! Not bad price either...$25!

 

The pants we got at a Haggar Outlet. They are Cool 18's so hopefully the guys won't sweat their **S off!

 

HEre's some pics of my FI and one of our Groomsmen modeling!

nsbride- I'm super jealous! I wish his outfit was finalized already so we can move on to the GM shirts.

 

cathyandchin- Thanks for the Macys recommendation. It's next on my list for linen pants. I found the guayabera shirts on the website Beach Wedding Attire & Dresses, Linen Wedding Pants, Shirts, Guayabera, Hawaiian, Havana, and Linen Suits I'm pretty sure I found the recommendation from the forum. This is the shirt my FI wants:

 

Men's Beach Wedding Shirts

 

Welcome Debbie! I hope your planning is going well.

 

I made my dress fitting appoint for May 5th but I still haven't my shoes. I've been going crazy and I'm ordering a few pairs from online because I have not seen anything I like in the stores. I hope to order my OOT bags asap. The days are ticking away!!

FI is finalllly going shopping this weekend with groomsmen to pick out their outfits! I know his outfit it much simpler to get than mine, but still has me in a bit of a panic that its 2 months till we leave and still nothing...hopefully this weekend they will find something great! :)

 

Has anyone else been having trouble with their vows? I'm trying to think of ideas for writing mine, I want them to be unique, not the same thing everyone says all the time, but I'm not a creative person, which makes it hard...

 

Is anyone else doing personal vows?

      Cabo Azul Wedding Cost / Review

      By Emmma · Posted

      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!

      Wedding venues and wedding planner in Costa Rica

      By KristinaH · Posted

      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!
