  1. lol, I've gotta think about this. We'd have to do it like the day before or after because I don't want to change and mess up everything for the reception. Sooo, I guess that depends on how much we want to spend! It sounds like so much fun though...hmmm....I'm definitely gonna think about this one!
  2. Welcome Michelle! My FI (Jeff too!) & I are getting married at Dreams Los Cabos in May. How big is your wedding? Can't wait to hear all of your details.. Welcome to the board, let us know how we can help!
  3. Melissa & Steven! Good luck with your planning, let us know how we can help!
  4. omg that is so funny, I think I would die if I was one of those girls! How embarrassing!
  5. OK, now i want to go on vacation somewhere and have them take pics of me! I also could use my other dress for water pics- I wonder if Juan has ever done something like that before?

Tammy, how did you do the casino night? That sounds like fun. Did the resort set it up for you or someone else? What games did you have and was it real $$ or not?
  7. Jackie, you are such an endless source of information- where do you find all this stuff and how in the world do you have time!?! It's great

    Newbie TOO!!!

    Welcome Amy, from another Cabo bride! If you were staying at a resort with a WC, I'd totally say you could do it without an outside one. However, since you're getting married at a villa you might want someone to help you coordinate from so far away. The girls have already given you some great suggestions. Happy planning!

    Hello!

    Welcome to the board. Have you been to Esperanza before? It is beautiful!!!
  11. Very cool- I love hurricanes, although there is NO way I want to try to transport these myself. BTW, Tammy what is up with the weather? It's freakin 60 degrees today! Woohoo
  12. Wow- those looks really fun. I guess you can have awesome pics like that if you don't care if you totally trash your dress!

  14. I love that dress Jessalyn. That is one I was considering- gorgeous!
  15. Awesome do Rebecca! It looks so natural and gorgeous on you Lucky girl, bringing your stylist from home. Hmmm, that's not such a bad idea, I do socialize with my stylist outside of the salon, maybe I can talk her into coming....

Its not like were on a total budget so should we have a private something or should we just have everyone meet at one of the restaurants? I have been struggling with this for months any suggesstions? also if we have a "private" dinner should I get my inlaws to foot the bill? then should my parents foot the bill for a "private" morning after breakfast? We are paying for everything else ourselves. Any sugesstions at all would be great! Jill How many guests do you have? If you have a smaller number (like, less than 50), and it's less than $1000 it seems like a pretty big bang for your buck. If you're already paying for everything yourself, you could definitely ask the parents to chip in. If they were paying for a RD here in the US, it would cost way more than that. The way that I feel about it is that people are spending so much money to come to my wedding that I want to provide a few nice "extras". I think the welcome/rehearsal dinner fits the bill. Another idea, have your in-laws pay for the RD, have your parents do a spa day or something like that for your bridesmaids the following morning, or a post-wedding brunch. Just some ideas...

    Welcome Jill! Happy planning:)
  18. Wow! Those are gorgeous- I love his work! Is this someone you are considering?
  19. Hey Kash- the beauty of this forum is, you can pretty much ask what you want and say what you want. If we don't like it or think you're rude, the same applies- we'll tell you! I wouldn't worry about it, those that don't want to share won't and for the rest of us, we're just happy to be able to help someone else out...

It's nice to put a face with the name, Amy. Cute avatar! I don't think you're "required" to do anything at a DW, which is the beauty of it all. I think alot of us have decided to do something special for our guests because of their expense of coming all the way to Mexico for us. I think a party boat cruise would be awesome!
  21. That is such an awesome idea! I have been trying to think of ways to do something special for my stepmother who has been such an important part of my life. This is perfect, and also a great way to recognize Jeff's mom too. OK, I'm already teary just thinking about it!
  22. Welcome to the forum and congratulations on your upcoming wedding!
  23. It depends on the type of shop you are going to. Most (if not all) upscale shops will require an appointment and won't see you without one. Other less pricey stores might let you get away without one. I've always just walked into the "normal" bridal shops I've gone to and had no problem, but this was always during the week...
  24. Good luck Rebecca! I can't wait to hear all about Dreams. You will be such a beautiful bride- congratulations!
