I know that's right!!! I already have quite a few people who I know I don't have to worry about anymore. I'll end up saving alot of money from now on.

  1. FI's father & stepmother - Can't go because they have to put shocks/struts on their car, can't get the time off of work (the wedding is on a Fri - she is a realtor and he is school social worker), need a trailor to get them ready for a move in June (the wedding is in Apr), there are some more, but this post could get long lol!
  2. My Aunt - just had to spend $1200 to get her car fixed. She has a Mercedes, her oldest daughter is 21 (not in college) & she has a beautiful home. Did I mention she took her daughter to Miami less than a yr ago for her 21st bday?!
  3. BM (Possibly) - BM's wife has just stopped returning my calls / texts. I know her phone still works because she sent me a text like 2 weeks ago to meet her at a bar for drinks! BM told my FI he may have to work now!

 

Bright Side - A lot less Xmas gifts to buy and less parties/gatherings to suffer thru next year!

Congrats Murmel!! 

 

We have dealt with the same issues as most of you when it comes to both the fear of travelling to Mexico and the other excuses. I really don't care anymore. Our families will be there and a few of our friends and that is most important to me. Since Americans don't get any (read 2 weeks) of vacation and it is important for my FI to have his friends there, we are looking into changing our date and move it to the weekend (if there even are any weekends open). My family and friends are coming in from out of country and get at least 5 weeks of vacation/ year so for them that is not a problem, besides they will want to stay at least 1 week to make it worth the long flight. What annoys me though is that when we booked the date we asked friends & family in the US if they would be able to come if it was on a weekday and the same people who said that they would prefer a weekday are now the ones who say they wished the wedding was on a weekend...aaargh!

Oh well, if we can change it we will, no one has booked their tickets or rooms yet so it is okay.

 

We are also moving to FL in 2-3 weeks and I'm starting a new job so I'm kind of stressed and don't have much time for wedding planning.

    • 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!
