This part- so true. I was really sad.  I wish I had $30,000 to spend on flowers! I was just greenhouse and garden shopping on the weekend, I wish I had $30,000 for that! :)

And the only thing I have every thought about when I think of walking down the aisle is what kind of flowers I would carry. So to not be able to have them, due to location blows, big time sad.gif

Hi Ladies!

 

Officially booked - January 5th at the Grand Palladium! Such a sigh of relief... I had that date on the STDs I sent out and on our wedding website.

 

Have any of you booked photographers yet? I think this is the next thing to work on now!

Congrats Manda123, booking is such a hugh relief and now all the fun stuff starts!!! I did book my photogragher about a month ago, but I think it depends on what you want too. If you want a good expensive one start looking or if you want to go through the resort if they offer it or even if you know someone from home that would like to bring with you. There's a lot to think about, I personally wasn't too concerned about pictures... I want a few good ones and pictures of the entire wedding and festivities, but really didn't want to spend very much. I was actually very fortunate that the photographer found me on this forum and he is reasonable priced and does good work. Hope this was helpful :) Have fun planning!!!!

Are there any 2012 Destination brides out there getting married in Kauai in January?? I will be there at that time on vacation and am a wedding photographer. We would love to do a destination wedding so we can start promoting ourselves as destination photographers. Please let us know if you are interested and we can do the photos for free as long as we can use them on our web page. Anyone else who is interested in destination photography please feel free to e-mail or call too as we will give great (super cheap) deals to other locations as well. Check us out:

I am not soliciting but thought that someone could get a FREE wedding photographer! Let me know if you are interested!!!

Hi so I've been on BDW for a while now and never saw this thread but happy i've found it. I'm getting married 1-14-2012 at Las Caletas in Puerto Vallarta. Well let me tell you guys a little about my wedding planning since I've been out of the loop. we got engaged oct. 19 2011 and right away I knew it was Mexico. By mid November I was booked at Las Caletas as I fell in Love with idea of the place. By Mid -december I found My TA on this website, Teresa Stauring who has been so great with everyone , very prompt and responsive with any information I asked.  I also purchased my dress in december which I thought was early but I went to a trunk show and was able to get my dream dress , meet the designer and even have him add something extra only to my dress to be uniquely mine!! By January I finished my wedding website, and sent out my save the dates. After January a complete standstill , and Boy did it feel good!!! By March I starting browsing at bridesmaids dresses though my bridesmaid thought I was crazy for doing early lol but my maid of honor said I had to right away. I have decided on one and will probably ask them to buy them by august/september . I just booked my photographer last week., which I also worked on since february-May lol deciding on the right one. Now i realize it is almost June and I Have not worked on any invites yet!! I originally was going to ask for a rsvp for october but I am shooting for hopefully having and rsvp by august 1st or even sept. 1st the latest!! I want to do passport invites , any suggested places that will do them for me? I am not big on DIY . I wish i had the time for it but do not :( Also My mom is planning a bridal shower for me sept 10th and will also send out invites around same time i send out my regular invites....is this too conflicting for ppl?  and knowing it's in sept i just realized I have to register soon !! double yikes. and in my personal life I have so many things going on home renovations galore, moving out, moving out....realtors. triple yikes!!! So much to do but I'm having a great time with everything but man do I wish I had that standstill time i had in january now...it felt sooo good. LOL ok ladies

Yay Adventurelovers!!!! I am also a Las Caletas Bride in Jan. 2012!!! YAY!!! And wow you have been very busy, good job!!! I did passport invites and I LOVE them, I had Ana De Roux do mine and she's super amazing!!! I provided the link for her website below. I don't think September 1st is too early... thats when we asked for RSVPs back, of course there will probably be a few late bookers, but that's expected in our families. Oh yeah the BM dresses, no too early if you ask me. I already got all my BMs dresses a month ago and haven't even started looking for mine yet stupid.gif Crazy I know, but my MOH lives on the other side of the country and we picked them out when she was up for a visit last month and they were on sale... couldn't say no!!!

 

Here is a link to Ana's website http://www.anaderoux.com/       jdkaghljkdjhaldjkrfhgj     

 

Happy planning!!!

      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!
