She offered this package more than a year ago and only decided to go ahead and fly her in until recently. My SIL and mother kept telling me its something I "needed" to do, lol. Funny, you think they'd tell me to save my money. Would it really stress out your Sis if you fly in one of her stylists? She can't do both? What really sold me about our girl is that she was throwing in unlimited trials and she would be there all day to touch me up. I felt that with the weather and how fast my skin absorbs make-up, I couldn't pass up the opportunity. As for LoCocco, I found a reference in this article. Vallarta Lifestyles - Winter 2007

I like number 2 regardless if it matches. I think the colors pop better!

How exciting! Its a beautiful dress!

Have a great time! Relax and have fun!

Maura! You are so great! Can you sell me a set, please I'm totally serious!

Kelly your children are so sweet. Liam's answer is so cute! I love talking to my 4 yr old niece. She tells me the best stories and dreams. She never met my brother (her uncle) but she ALWAYS talks about him. Last month she said that she had the most wonderful dream with Uncle Cesar. He was wearing big white wings and he gave her pink ones and he taught her how to fly. She said they had so much fun. When she gets older, I will have to thank her for being my little miracle. She's got me through so much (depression).

Now I don't think either are very nice, but if FI loves them then I have no problem showing them off!

I completely support Tammy for posting this thread as is. It's not fair to couples. Do you all really think they have substantial reason to require a $500 fee AND a 3-night stay? And they are basing this on a Mexican law! Really, that raises a red flag!

Yes, finally! Great pics Rachel! Obviously you had a great time!

Lucky girl! Have a great time!

Very tough question, I guess having my brother physically present at my wedding.

Thanks everyone! I was checking out my photog's blog and was pleasantly surprised to see that she posted a pic of our invites!

Happy birthday!!! Have a great day!!!

Just in case anyone needed to get another laugh, I got another one for 6 no's w/ no name. Its probably a good thing, saves $$$, but where are the names people!

Oh wow, people have NO SHAME! I'm glad you didn't give in, good for you!

Beautiful! I admit , I didn't read your review (I'm not a Cabo bride) but I did see your pics! I love your BM dresses! Any the feathers- great detail!! Congrats!

too freaken cute! Love it!

Best: Probrably my hair. I have lots of it and it grows fast! Worst: Only one?? I would say my skin. I hate my skin!

You can stick a red cross on it. Do they sell little cans/bottles of Clamato in Mx? It would be cute to add those too, lol.

I wish I could help. We are having a stylist fly in. Our BM's (all 9) are paying $60 each and Hans and I are paying the rest for her and the assistant. She will be there all day! We only need to pay for their trip and she's including a hair trial before we leave. I'm so excited! Pris quoted me $80 for hair and make-up, but I was really scared of not liking my the stylist. So I asked my girls if they wanted a stylist, if so, would they mind paying $60 to fly in this girl. Anyhow, I may still need referrals for all my aunts who want to get their hair done in PV.

Honestly Glenda, I stop looking at labels. They just depress me. Just tear if off when it comes in! Its so funny, when I was trying on Bridal dresses, all these skinny girls had to get pinned in their dress. Since sample dresses are ordered "big" if fit into most, lol. The dress I bought was a 12, I'm a street size 8.

Don't feel guilty over your decision, its best for you and everyone else. Glenda's right, your sister is being passive-aggressive. Take the power away from her and your mom, remember life is 10% of what happens to us and 90% how we react to it. Just smile, know you have made sound decisions, and limit contact to what is healthy for you. Ok, done with therapy now. Tell the selfish twit to get over herself! Great advice! Maura, I don't have any sisters so I wish I had some advice for you. I worked backwards, made all my BM - MOH's to avoid this problem.

Great review!! Aren't you getting excited?? I know i am!
