Cruisebride2016 Cruise Wedding Planning Thread


Recommended Posts

@@ashhtayy Thanks for checking in!! Planning is going well. I have totally slacked on updating though. I ended up going with Nathan because I didn't like the 40% increase for customization for the other seller since they were silk flowers. We just paid our final payment yesterday, so our flowers should be shipped soon. I think they look wonderful in the pictures, so I am really excited to see them in person!!

 

We ordered a 9" bridal bouquet, groom's boutonniere, and a corsage:

Here are more views of the bridal bouquet:

@@cruisebride2016 your flowers are so pretty!!! I know what you mean about the ridiculous fees through the coordinator... If you don't fit in their perfect box they charge you... Hope everything works out for you, as frustrating as it is, try to breath and relax :)

@@ashhtayy I got a notification that the flowers shipped today. Can't wait!! Thank you so much for the suggestion of Nathan. He was so much easier to work with than the previous person. And, I know the real touch flowers are going to look so much better than the silk ones I was considering. They were more expensive, but I think they will be worth it!

 

@@deecol Thank you!! It is crazy how limited the packages are from the coordinators. We have been able to get her to substitute some things, but not others. We substituted an upgraded arch for the flowers that we won't use.

@ Thank you for recommending Stemple Shop/Nathan to @@ashhtayy so that she could then suggest it to me! This is a wonderful example of what makes this website so helpful! It would have been unlikely for me to come across this vendor without your recommendations. Thank you!

I have been celebrating lately and it has been so much fun!!

 

I had my bridal shower 2 weeks ago. It was in the barrel room of a winery. It was wonderful to catch up with friends and family, especially since at least half of them are not coming to the wedding.

Last night, I had my Bachelorette Party. We started at a hotel and played games. I really enjoyed the one where the girls wrote down their favorite memory of us together and I had to guess who it was. The game lead to going into details about the memories, which was fun to go down memory lane! After that, we went to a paint nite where you paint and drink wine. I am not an artist, so the wine definitely made it easy to not be a perfectionist!

Then, we went to dinner and finished the night with drinks and dancing at a club. I had a great night!!

You're so welcome for the recommendation. I hope that many people use Nathan because he was an absolute pleasure to deal with the year leading up to my wedding and his products are great quality :)

 

Your bachelorette looked so fun!! I did the exact same thing for mine except my girls added an extra stop before the club...a not so appropriate one haha. I love the painting it was a lot of fun.

 

Your wedding is coming up so soon!! :)

    • 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!
