bummer she is booked...

yay!! you picked your spot!

YAY!! i can't wait to hear all the details...oh, christa is gonna die when she sees you were on today! i want a full review and a bunch of pics please! congrats!!!!!!

weez...aren't you looking at this resot as one of your choices?

hi erin, i moved ths thread to the wedding attire section...if you look at my pics you will see the guys wearing a tan linen suit...we found ours at Jcrew and H&M. if you look through the attire forum you will find lots of info on tan linen suits. the one thing to keep in mind...they really start coming out in early spring and there is a really short linen suit season so when you start seeing them you need to grab them quickly. here's a thread Groom and GM attire

all fixed! so if everyone can either delete the files or re-upload the file it would be great.

thanks sarah...she is a total shopper but has to buy things on sale...that dress was originally like $600 because of the beading and jacket but she ended up getting it for $30 from Macy's...she is an insane shopper like that... we have this gene in us that makes us find things cheaper than anywhere else...it is great but can get ot of control somethimes.

here is my moms dress for the stay at home reception.... it has a matching bolero jacket that was all beaded as well.

thanks sarah...really simple...i could have done something similiar but it wouldnt have looked so polished and i would've taken me hours so not worth my time...

Has anyone had problems/heard about problems arising in certain resorts from loud receptions or afterparties? With this group there is always the potential for a drunken America's Next Top Model walkoff contest happening down the hotel hallway at who knows what time. These people are professional by day and bizzaro by night. I'd love not to get kicked out or yelled at because we are too loud. our group can get pretty out there as well...lot of "rockstars", musicians, tattoed famous, weirdos and my youngest sister is OUT OF CONTROL (like she has been thrown into mexican jail...just found that out...another story!) but i think people but in mexico i think they have seen it ALL...remember they do have springbreak there...

one more thing..have you thought of getting your own monogram and putting that on the STD...sarah made a cute on from Creative Montage

for the ceremony i wantd subdued colors...for the reception i wanted more of a pop...orange and red roses, etc.

i had my welcome dinner at the oceana terrace. it is near the quieter pool and a very beautiful and private spot to have a private event. we had a little over 50 people. it was really great. the next day i had my wedding reception at the cascade terrrace...it was a little less private but you were next to the beach. i posted some pics in the vbpicgallery...or try the link under my avatar and profile info that say "view my photos" and you should see pics there.

i love: starbucks cooking cute socks gourmet chocolates/candies from local chocolatiers to learn how to knit i don't love: perfumey smelling things bathroom toiletries (have too many) chotchkies

if you are going to participate in the secret santa gift exchange please read the following: gift to be approx. $20-25 in value To make YOUR santas life easier please give her a clue as to what your likes and dislikes are. then PM me your full name and mailing address. I will compile them and forward them to Janet when she gets back from her wedding. update: by now you should have received a PM from janet with the name and address of the person yo are getting a gift for. if not, email her or me. this isn't mandatory but we can do a coordinated gift opening on sat.. Dec. 23rd between 4-8PST.

i had mine for about 5 hours and wish i had him for another hour before the ceremony...

Today's winner is Christa!! twice in a row!

sarah, i have never been to a wedding w/o dancing either... remember it is mexico...people get wasted and get their groove on down there...maybe do all the main stuff first and have dancing at the end so people that dont like to dance and older g-parents can elave if they want but those that want to stay an dance, can...

I updated the forum on thursday night but in the process lost some pics that were hosted on VBimage host.. can everyone go to their vbimage host account and either delete the files that have the red x's or re-upload the file. thanks and sorry about that!
