Amazing!!!!

Welcome Alisa!!! I'm having my reception at the Mayan Palace in PV in July 2008. Here is a link to the PV forum where you can find info on PV http://bestdestinationwedding.com/forum/f5/ I can recommend Kristin at thedazzlingdetails.com I contacted her but couldnt afford her since we are expecting a ton of guests (150+). What kind of hotel are you looking for??

I'm not currently doing WW (although I should really start again!), but when I was on it, I made sure too fill up on 0pt veggies. Cucumbers with lime were my favorite snack and always helps at the beginning when your getting adjusted to the portions.

How fun Sarah! You look great!

So you all have probrably noticed that I'm going throug youtube finding random videos of weddings in PV and I came accross this one at Dreams. I just love how they complied the video and pictures and music! I swear, its like an infomercial for DWs! For those of you who's friends and fam are venting about your wedding- show them this video! YouTube - Levi and Christinas Wedding enjoy~!

Hi ladies! Look what I found... a Las Caletas wedding video! enjoy! YouTube - boda

Thanks Amanda! I love your hair and your veil is beautiful!

Thanks Tammy! Anny- how much are you saving purchasing the bottles duty free?

Can I ask why you don't want to just do open bar? it seems like such a hassle to buy booze for everyone. We only brought wine because its super pricey for good California wines in Cabo, and we got a great deal from a winery that we had a membership to. Hi Natasha, The open bar option is too much $$$. Its about $11 per person, per hour + 30% tax/tip (@150+ guests). We thought the corkage fee was a better deal. And like I’ve mentioned, my cousin (in Mexico) has a good friend who makes and bottles tequila so we’ll get a good deal from them.

Aww melissa, you are so creative and thoughtful. I can only imagine his reaction.
