Looks amazing!

Check out that reception setting, incredible!!! I love when you share, just beautiful! The fans are awesome...those are based on U.S. postage stamps, no? I just bought a book that looks just like them lol

Welcome to the forum! I got married at Las Caletas as did a lot of our brides. Check out our PV section and Las Caletas thread for reviews and suggestions Puerto Vallarta & surrounding areas - Best Destination Wedding Forum ~ The Ultimate Destination Wedding Resource

Hmmmm....I think generally if you are hosting a reception then you should provide the food/drinks. But, if you have a relaxed group of family/friends and want to do a casual celebration I don't think there is anything wrong with it...but don't be surprised if you get some flack for it. IMO if it's a pot luck it would be somewhere very casual like a park or backyard.

Oh no, this is the worst thing ever!!! I almost can't believe it. We board our dog all the time and I would be very ticked off if they let children walk the dogs. That's quite irresponsible, wow!!! I really hope Bailey turns up safe and sound. Fingers crossed for you!!!!!!

I say send them as you receive them, you don't want people thinking you got their gift and didn't care. You could always send a wedding photo card later if you want but thank you cards should be sent out within a matter of weeks from when you got the gift (imo).

Remember you can always search this site for the other threads that discuss monogram vendors. The search tab is located on the upper right side of the page. I think this is resolved so I'll close the thread

Carly, no way! He was in some "classic" 80's movies. You should rent them for kicks! Drugs are a mother...so sad

ID it just seems ultra lame to me this season and sorry but nothing compares to the Apollo Ohno days =) Funny, I sort of feel the same way. The Nicole girl is a dancer so how is that fair? I didn't watch the Kate show but I saw her in an interview talking about needing money so it is kind of sad to me because it's like she's pimping herself out & has to do it (and I don't think most people view her as a "star"). I may not be a Pamela Anderson fan but at least I can say she is a star. I would like to see Shannon Doherty & OchoCinco though because they have strong personalities that could make for laughs but I'm not sure if it's enough to get me to watch it.

Returns March 21st! Who watches? This is my favorite show and it killed me that they were on hiatus for almost a year. I can't wait! Breaking Bad - AMC

Wow that is pretty heavy, so sorry to hear it. Is it silly to suggest having an intimate ceremony where your mom is so that she can be a part of your wedding? Even just a spiritual/non-legal union type of thing. Then one day when you feel up to it, you can go have the beach wedding she wants you to have. Hang in there

I can't imagine what it must feel like to almost be obligated to give a "formal public" apology - whether tru eor not. To bad for both of them. My sentiments exactly! He doesn't owe his fans an apology, that's ridiculous imo...his wife is the only person who deserves one and it's none of our business. I can't believe this has been so hyped up and that it warranted a press conference! I mean people get murdered and there aren't press conferences, this guy cheated on his wife and it's breaking news? I guess it's because he had a clean image before and this is so far from that. But seriously who cares? At the end of the day he is a guy who cheated on his wife like so many other guys who cheat on their wives. I feel bad for her that this really private matter has been sensationalized because it has got to be pretty humiliating.

Do it then, that should solve the problem.

Welcome to the forum. The questions you asked are covered extensively so please search the site using the search function and check the PV/vendor areas.

We had about 40% rsvp with a yes and about 30% actually book and show up.

Definitely send something out. I didn't have to do this since I didn't get married at a resort so I'm not sure what the exact wording should be...something along the lines of "X Resort requires wedding guests who are not staying there to pay a day pass fee of $100. We encourage all of our guests to stay at X Resort so you do not have to pay the day pass fee" There is a better way to say it...maybe someone else can help.

I think you should have been very clear about the fee from the start. I would immediately send out a letter explaining that if a guest does not stay at the resort they will have to pay to attend the wedding. If you can't do that then send out an email, or get on the phone or do whatever you must to make sure there are no surprises. The word of mouth may not reach everyone and as a guest I would be pretty ticked off if I got to the wedding and was asked to pay. Don't wait on this, tell them asap. If they choose to stay elsewhere that's fine. I actually enjoyed the fact that all guests didn't stay at our resort. It gave us some us time.

Have you contacted BDW's travel agents? There is an ad at the top of your screen.

I love the stars!

I mean I've gone to countless wedding/baby showers, housewarmings, birthdays, weddings etc. but when it comes to all the attention and gifts being for me, I feel so guilty for some reason!!! I feel the same way! I asked to not have to open gifts in front of everyone but they wanted me to. I also wasn't sure I wanted a shower but it was thrown for me and I went with it. In the end it was fun and a lot of people who could not make it to the wedding were able to attend, so that was nice.

Wow this is crazy! I don't have any advice other than to talk to him and go with your gut. Sorry you are dealing with this. FYI I edited out the last names/phone numbers/email addresses that were in the emails. You don't want that sort of stuff out there for everyone to see...or maybe you do lol...but I removed it
