Hello lovely brides and brides-to-be,

 

We have decided to open up the floor to our guests if they would like to give a speech.  We are asking them to decide this ahead of time though so that they can prepare for it a little, also so that it gives us a change to let them know that we want them to keep it at 3mins max-ish. 

 

In my earlier days following this forum, I saw or read someone post their example of a blurb that explained their speech etiquette for lack of better words.  Does anyone have a sample of the wording they used?  I'm short for words today but really want to get started on this asap.

thank  you!

We are doing the exact same thing! We'll have my dad and sister and his brother do the "formal" speeches but then throughout dinner we're letting the mic be open. On my "to do" list for this week is exactly what you describe - a communication about this and the expectations. We'd like to keep them to 2 minutes max each :)

 

So, thanks for posting this! I'm anxious to see ideas!

I just sent out an email to my bridesmaids asking them if they would like to speak but I wanted to send out a big email to all our guests that way nobody feels left out...but still respecting our timeframe.

      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!
