I agree with asking her and letting her know she was your first choice.

 

We asked our siblings to be in our bridal party and they are all coming with financial help from us and parents.

 

But I asked a couple of other close friends to be "sponsors" (of our lazo, arras, etc.) and two couples were able to scrape the money together for the trip, and the one that can't make it, knows that if we were to win the lottery, they would be on a private plane in a heart beat. In fact, both my friend and her husband processed their passports "just in case" anything changes (unexpected bonus, birthday money, ANYTHING!) and they are touched that we wanted them to be a part of our special day.

I would ask her because it gives her the chance to decide her finances but also make your other BM's aware so they can try and help her out with the shower and all. I was just in a wedding and the one girl was outta work and just had twins that were in intensive care for most of the planning. Though she stayed strong and helped where she could. We actually became great friends! Money is just an object but friendship is irreplacable.

This really depends on your bridesmaid... I asked my childhood friend to be my MOH since she always talked about it but told her in advance it was in Mexico so if she couldn't do it I'd understand. She's single, has her own home and doesn't make that much money. She said yes but over the past few months has really made her financial issues known and stressed me out. In the end she's bowing out of the wedding but after quite a bit of unnecessary drama. Hopefully you have better luck...

I agree...definitely ask. My MOH is in a very bad financial situation as well but we have been inseparable since we were three years old and I can't imagine my wedding without her. She is going to come no matter what it costs her and I am going to try to help as much as I can. Good luck!

      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!
