Recommended Posts

Haha you're so funny @@Wafflesmom! I've just been playing around, I can't decide. I even tried the lilies in the middle of the roses, but it thought it looked too tall.

I personally like this one better. Not sure if I'm more traditional in the flower sense or if because then you can see all the flowers no matter which direction you are holding it. Both are gorgeous though so can't go wrong either way.

@@calgarybride2015 I think I definitely feel more comfortable holding this bouquet because I don't have to worry about which way it's being held. And when I add the silver ribbon around the stems I think it will look beautiful. I think my first one is really unique but at the same time it's so structured...

 

Just got Col's opinion and he really liked the second, more round bouquet. And the 3 lilies instead of 5 in the BMs bouquets.

 

Thank you ladies for your feedback. I really appreciate it! Keep it coming :)

It's been ages since I've posted! Just checking in as its 6 months until the big day!!! All the Canadians have paid in full so that's 17 plus Colin and I coming from here and the 24 UK guests with their own payment dates. I still have people saying they're coming and booking so we'll see...

@@Wafflesmom @ Thanks Ladies!  Ahh seeing that 5 months+ in my ticker is crazy!  

 

@@krystalball It is a relief!  I wasn't stressed about a certain number of people booking because we didn't get any wedding package perks with it anyway.  But definitely happy to have more a final number to work with.  I guess as we get closer we'll be able to figure out the exact number and be able to start organizing favours, seating charts etc

 

My Mom is sending my bridal shower invitations out next week!  I am having my shower on February 7th, 2016 and she needs rsvp's by January 7th.  We figured with Christmas coming, if we get them out now it gives people a chance to respond before they are drowning in Christmas cards, invitations etc

 

I don't have much in terms of updates except that we are going to start working on our Wedding Wishes soon to send to the resort.  Although we won't have our coordinator until 3 months before, they will start pre-booking some things for us which is awesome.  I heard back from the resort photographer and they confirmed we can pay in USD or pesos, our choice.  I'm looking forward to getting more DIY projects done and will update as I go. 

 

I'm been doing an online event planning course and found the perfect terminology for the dress code for a destination wedding (if you're worried about some guests showing up in their swimwear) that I thought I'd share:  

Sophisticated Resort Wear - Upscale sundress for her and subtly-coloured linen trousers for him

I played around a bit more:

It's a bit more circular. Thoughts?

@@deecol I still have to go back and catch up on all your posts prior to my hiatus but wanted to tell you I saw your post about "sophisticated resort wear" and quoted it to my father tonight. My mum thought it was the perfect way to put it although my dad followed up with "does that mean I can't wear my bathing suit?" lol

    • 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!
