So far we have booked our date, purchased out Save the Dates (are hoping to send them out his weekend), bought my dress, did a site visit/menu tasting, booked our photographer (Ivan Luckie) and enlisted a travel agent.  We also started our wedding website which I will list below. 

We originally were booking for Sat May 11th, but decided to go with Fri the 10th to give people the option to leave on Saturday or Sunday.  That being said my whole family is planning on staying mid week through midweek, but we have some frends who could only do a long weekend. 

I feel like we should be doing more but I'm not quite sure what!

Hey Kristie, Welcome to BDW and the May 2013 thread!

 

I definitely use to spend countless hours looking at wedding dresses.  I knew exactly what I wanted and thought it would make things easier, but it was definitely a full time job trying to find it. In the end two dresses stole my heart both of which I specifically had my local boutique bring in, but one would have broken my dress budget which made the decision easier ( I would still be debating about which dress to choose). 900x900px-LL-60400abc_Photo07281600.jpg

Good luck with your dress search, what's your criteria so far?

 

Choco!!

Beautiful Dress!!!

My budget is $2000 for a dress including alterations... Although Calgary is a big city we just dont get all the designers like you guys in the States..

I love this siloutte of your dress. I am looking for something similar maybe fit an flare. Ideally some thing a little different.. not strapless. I love dresses with intersting back detail.. I will start to scour all the bridal stores here in the next few weeks! I will keep you posted. Lol

Hi Ladies!! Tomorrow will make me exactly a year away from our wedding in DR!! Ahhhhh!!  Cant believe we are a year away. My Save the dates went out yesterday. Anyway, is anyone worried about the weather in the Caribbean in May, specifically Punta Cana? Of course its a rainey month and the weather is something I cant control but has anyone visited during this month?

woot.gifI’m so happy for us BDW May 18th Brides - Bride81, TauruSmith, Angela2013, Eyeball17, (definitely missing a 5/18 Bride in this line up) and now you!  Officially 1 year and counting. I’m definitely not worried about the weather as I have been to the RM twice, once late April the other time mid-May.  And the forecast called for lightning and thunderstorms almost every day of both our vacations but we never saw one drop of rain, and only one morning with a cloudy sky.  Many Locals told us that they never pay attention to the weather until later in the summer because it's always wrong. Hopefully the weather trends similarly in Punta Cana.

Hey! This may be a little late (I just joined and started to read the May 2013Brides thread since I am now one!). BUT I just got back from site visits in Cancun, RM and Tulum. Everything that you mentioned in what you are looking for in a venue I found in Dreams Tulum. They have a really cute chapel right by the beach and many options on where you would want your reception. Hope that helps!

      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!
