I have never seen them here and think they are not available. You might indeed be able to ship them in from Holland however this is probably very expensive. THe other problem could be that they might not withstand the heath and humidity of this area. I hope this information helps. this info is great! do you think you'd be able to give us a short list of the flowrs which are available?

for the new yucatan girls- here are the pics of the ceremony sites i have:

such a great gift! i want to read the rest of the story!!

tomorrow i am dropping off fi's ring to have it engraved. i'm pretty sure it will say "oh the places we'll go!". i think it fits him and our relationship well and we're not too into the mushy. my band comes in next friday and i have no idea what fi got engraved on mine! picking up my dress on saturday! aaaaaaaaaaaannnd, we just had our first gift purchased off our registry! an underwater digital camera!!!! and it's orange. i'm so excited for it!

Down here, dia de los muertos is kinda a big deal. Someone on here bought a cake topper, of the skeletons, but I can't remember who it was? that's me!

can't help with the color but i have that dress and love it. mine is blue.

if you search posts made by kellymn she used paper bags and they turned out very nice. but often times they are no more cheaper than the canvas, but they might be lighter/easier to pack.

I was looking at Dreams in Cabo..... we are heading to belize for a week after mexico. what issues are you having? maybe i can help if you're still interested.

i don't think anyone else is getting married there, although i hear it's a great resort. try this place- Debbie's Dominican Travel Forums - Weddings in the Dominican Republic

these are great. i bought fi a really nice leather one with his initials monogrammed... i think i'll give it to him right before we leave.

I have said this before but it's amazing how we can all have access to the one template and everyone does theirs slightly different, great creativity these were my formal invites- just sent them out last week
