Welcome! Wow, your wedding is right around the corner!

Your pictures are beautiful. I love how the color of your BM dresses looks with their flowers. I hope, I hope, I hope mine turns out this beautiful!

Great job!

That was pretty funny!

I nearly passed out at the gym. Who has caused you the most problem with the wedding planning process?

He claims he has learned to tune out female voices by living having to listen to his mom and sis all his life.

I love your pictures! I agree with you that she is an amazing photographer.

Looks really good. I like the palm tree in the front!

Hello! I'm not a Punta Cana bride but I'm sure you will be able to find tons of good info in this forum

I agree with all the girls...it looks fantastic. My mom was a little concerned too when I showed her what I had in mind for invitations. She wanted something more "formal." Well, it's not a formal event so you have to go with what you want. I say have fun with the STD's. You can always do the invites a little more formal to shit her up.

They look amazing!!!

Thanks for the info!!!

Susan, We are getting married right on the beach at Playacar. We could have chosen to get married on the beach right infront of Maramao but we wanted something a little more secluded. We debated for a while to have a chapel wedding or a beach wedding. We will do a religious ceremony at home just the two of us and have a symbolic ceremony on the beach at Playacar. I hope this helps!

I love it! I want to do mine now.

Hey Susan, I am also using Caribbean Blue Weddings!!! Sorry though, my reception hasn't happened yet so I don't have any of my pictures. Irene had also offered those two options (maramao and casa del agua) to us but since really wanted a dance area we stuck with Maramao. I can't say I'm extremly thrilled at the location but we are definelty hoping for the best. Mosquito beach looks very chic and modern so we really like that but a few things to consider: 1) The lighting on the few wedding pics I've seen from there looks too dark. Although Irene said that more lighting has been added. 2) I wanted to decorate the place with hanging lanterns and drapes and Irene said the owner doesn't allow that. I may give the owner a call myself and beg him though. 3) The open bar is sooo expensive. 4) The restaurant has red and black chairs which my WC forgot to tell me. If you are not a big fan of red and black you will have to rent chairs for an extra fee. If you don't really care, it's not a big deal. Other than that, the location is really good. You can't beat being right by the beach, especially in Nov when weather should be really nice . I do have a few pictures I obtained from a bride in the forum. I will contact her and ask her if she doesn't mind that I share them with you. I hope this helps!

I think the sun sets at different times during different times of the year. I am also getting married in Nov in Riviera Maya and we are having ours at 4. WC said the sun will set at 5. Do you know how long your ceremony is? Maybe that can help determine the time to start.

Do you get points taken away by participating in a poll I could have sworn I had around 500 points and after a while I had 350. I haven't opened any attachments. The only thing I did different was participate in a poll. I keep reading threats and posting when possible but points don't seem to add up fast enough

I love the blue!

Silly question but where do you get the logo iron-on stickers?

The funny thing is that she told me I could keep my shoes on while she did procedure so I had high heels on She wasn't very happy needles to say. My friend went to that lady right after me and told me the lady requests for all girls to take their shoes off since then.

I tried it once and swore I would never ever do that again. I was kickign the lady that did it in her face. Sorry I don't mean to scare you but it really really really hurt me. I got laser hair removal now and I LOVE IT!

They look awesome!

We are getting married before we go to Mexico. We are both catholic and wated to really get married through the church. Well, catholic priests WILL NOT marry you on the beach so we decided to do the religious before we go. We will have a symbolic ceremony in Mexico but nobody really knows. It will my FI and me and our parents only for the catholic ceremony and everyone for the big party in Mex.

I love this idea. It sounds like a fun personal touch to have from all your guests.

They look really good. I have more ideas now of things to do for OOT bags. Thanks!
