That's what I was planning on doing first & then I started second guessing myself.

I know! It is so crazy how fast time goes by. We just had our shower yesterday and it was 2 months to the day for our wedding. I just ordered our raffia fans now that we finally have the final guest count since everyone has booked their trip. I don't know if you say the custom cake topper that jenleopard posted, but I just paid a deposit to have one made. I was torn if I was going to get a topper. I liked the swarovski crystal letters, but they were SO expensive. I've hit my limit of DIY projects so I was glad to find that one. It was cute, reasonably priced, and personalized. I still need to finish our wedding programs. I have the template done I just need to print out a sample to make sure I have the spacing and margins right before I start printing the final ones out for cutting and assembly. I need to finalize our menu and print out the menu cards. I got white table tents from PaperSource and am just going to print a few menus on card stock and glue to the table tents and place a few along the length of each table. I still need to find some maracas to tie the placecards to. I need to get the fake rings and glue those and the ribbon to the seashells for the ring bearers. I need to put together the welcome letters and itineraries. OMG-I have so much to do!

Hey Michelle - we are actually doing Maracas for the place settings as well - I found some here

 

7'' GENUINE MEXICAN MARACAS from Windy City Novelties

 

I liked these because they were fairly inexpensive but didn't look as cheap as most of the ones I have seen.....not sure if this is what you are looking for but I know I like to have as many options as possible!!

Thanks for posting all of this useful info (pics of bouquets, sample ceremonies, etc).

I have so many concerns about the reception (thought I was the only one)..... the linens, the Vitrales (?) room vs the disco, centerpeices, etc. I know I still have time, but I'm constantly thinking about it. I can't help it!

The starfish tealight holders look really nice. The idea of them surrounding a flower arrangement is fantastic. That should look good, not to mention romantic. Let's not forget it's lightweight and can be transported easily. Candlelight sets a sexy tone.

I can't wait to see some of your pics. I have no idea what any of the restaurants look like, much less know what they serve. But, like others have mentioned, I heard the Steakhouse was good and provides a little bit of privacy.

I'm really trying hard not to get too ahead of myself with the planning. I don't want to take on too many tasks at once. I sent out my STDs about two months ago. Now, I'm working on the boarding pass invites (thanks to this site). I'm also making a final decision about which type of OOT bag to use & which logo looks best on it.

Ok, I feel as though I'm rambling on now... again, thanks for the thread & I'm sure I'll be a regular here.

Hi Mabila - a word of caution - i would avoid the Disco as an option if possible. I was there in May for a vacation, and the disco is pretty cheesy (star wars theme). and pretty dark (unless you guys like that theme)....i would definintely recommend a restaurant as a better option. Thanks

These are cute! I will probably end up ordering these. They are the nicest ones I've seen so far.

As far as the reception, I was thinking the same thing.... I want to concentrate on decorating the dinner tables. I figured that since people will be sitting down, the focus would be more on the table itself (& then maybe the newlyweds angel2.gif).

Does anyone know if the Maya/Lindo has a location where we could have an 'all in one' reception (dinner, dancing, cake cutting, etc)? Besides the Disco, of course!

BTW, the maracas look authentic. Good choice!

I was told that the Lindo/Maya only offers the semi private dinner and then you can rent the disco or Vitrales room for reception. However, I thought I read somewhere that depending on your group size you can rent the conference center so I'm not too sure. I know at the Del Mar you can rent the Tropical Restaurant (open air) for a private dinner and reception for $800, but you have to be having your wedding there.
