hey dana...were leaving on Sat October 30th for Mexico, our wedding is on NOvember 5th, most of our guests are coming on the 3rd..

We are date twins!!! And we both are getting married with a Karisma resort. How fun! Love the Azul but we wanted adults only. Can't wait to hear more about your plans

Soon2B - we are using Claudia Rodriguez based on the great reviews on this site! (thank you BDW!)

Is anyone having trouble getting people to book early? No one is willing to book early and give me a chance to plan!

Yes! I'm so worried that the prices will go up and no one will be able to afford to come anymore. I know it's probably totally irrational, but it's definitely keeping me up at night!

On an up note, I finished our info brochures! They're pretty simple, but I'm happy with the way they turned out!

I need to start looking into venues for our AHR, but the DW planning stuff is so much more fun right now

Its not irrational! I feel the same way! Its hard planning little things like welcome bags and and pre-wedding packages if you dont know whos all going for sure. I have a lot of "yes's" but only one person booked. Do you mind sharing your brochure? Ive been trying to start something similar, but I have no idea what to add or where to start.

That's awesome! I'm excited to finally meet a date twin! We're super excited about the Azul Sensatori. It looks great and we've heard great things about it. We couldn't do adults only because of nieces and nephews and friends with kids. The AS seems to have a great kids program and adults only section. Best of both worlds!

Has anyone sent out official invitations yet? We did STD's in December. Our invitations will hopefully go out in April? Finger's crossed. I'm just getting a little nervous about not having many people booked yet. It's still 7 months away but I was hoping more people would have at least paid a deposit by now Am I crazy

I don't know..from what I hear, it sounds like a lot of people like to wait until the last minute. I've already sent the STD and I have a website set up so people can go there for information on how to book. I am not sure how many have put down a deposit yet, hopefully my travel agent will let me know in the next month or so.

Regarding the invitations, I'm still unsure how early to send those out. I have a lot of friends getting married early summer and I still haven't received invitations from them, but then of course they aren't getting married in Mexico. Personally I was thinking about sending out the invites around August (3 months beforehand)...because if they REALLY wanted to come, you think they would have looked at my STD and website and started the booking process...but maybe I'm wrong.

When is everyone sending out their invites?
