My fiance and I are doing a DW in Nov. 2011, just the two of us. I am getting a ton of mixed ideas from friends and family about a shower. I am not sure if it is appropriate to have a shower...since no one is invited to our DW (we want it to be intimate, just the two of us). We are having an AHR upon our return and inviting everyone, approximately 100 guests. So, is it okay to have a shower, being that people won't be at our actual wedding, but will be invited to an AHR to celebrate our union upon our arrival home?? I am so confused!! The DW was supposed to be less stressful! ha

I am also getting married there in November 2011!! I haven't booked yet, but we were thinking of Nov. 8-15th!!

Hi Ladies!!! I have been reading through the threads...my fiance and I decided to scrap our traditional wedding in out hometown for an intimate weddingmoon at Sandals Grande Antigua (much more romantic, less stressful, and cheaper!!). We have not booked the weddingmoon yet, but are planning on doing so within the next couple weeks for November 2011. Any advice that you ladies could offer would be great! The wedding will be just my fiance and I and we were thinking about upgrading to the Vision in White theme...not sure how that works when there are only the two of us there (no guests). We were thinking about an evening ceremony on the beach and hoping to do a candlelight dinner on the beach right after (since we won't have guests to have a reception). The only worry I have about the destination wedding is the hair/makeup and the transporting of my dress! Any advice would be extremely helpful!! Thanks!
