I think I am prepared. I got EVERYTHING into three bags which includes our clothes We split up our OOT items and wedding stuff into two bags. I am a little nervous but I think we will be ok. I have all my receipts and invoices.

Hi Brandi, welcome. Good luck planning and I am sure you will find some great ideas!

Thanks for sharing. I am going to send him an email. I wonder if he can put graphics on the beer mugs.

OMG...I was just researching this on the forum. FI wants to salsa and surprise everyone. I love the idea. Although I have no idea for a song suggestion but I am researching so I'll let you know if I come up with anything. I was thinking about searching on Dancing with the Stars or something. They might have good ideas.

My mom suggested that..I looked at her funny at first but then thought..not a bad idea! Let me know what you come up with. I need to start looking for my set.

I am not doing table numbers and a seating chart however I went to a wedding last summer and saw the coolest idea. Each table was a little city that the bride and groom traveled together to and then there was a picture of the two of them at the place..make sense? It was really neat.

I just started researching the sand ceremony sets. I have no idea.....wonder if it is something you can play with some cheaper sand. Just a thought...

Good Evening Nicole! Congrats on your engagement and welcome to the fun of planning a wedding. You will get so many great ideas here and meet some amazing people! Have fun and good luck! PS...the Rivera Maya is so pretty!!

colored for sure..adds so much! i love the wording on the invite as well.

I need 50 and plan on buying them down there in Playa. My mom thinks we will have a hard time finding that many. I told her they are all over the place...is that what you experienced? Thanks!

That is a fun site!

I was just researching Playa today.....www.playamayanews.com has some great listings. I hear the Blue Parrot is a great place.

OMG..that is my biggest fear planning a wedding and purchasing everything online. I wish you the best of luck and remember people remember reviews. Like others said, karma is a b!tch...I have faith that things will work out. GOOD LUCK!

I would vote gold as well. That dress is very pretty by the way. A light tan color might look good however I think gold will add so much. Good Luck!
