Only one BM, GM. So that's easy enough. AND...so far that's it! I've started looking at invitiations/announcements. I'm amazed at home expensive they are! Anyways, I can't wait to chat with you ladies more!! Just wanted to introduce myself! Erin Hi Erin, Welcome to the thread. We are going to honeymoon at the Aventura Spa Palace (Jan 24-31) after getting married down the Riviera at the Grand Palladium. Good luck with the invites. We did ours really cheap by sending them via e-mail Jen

I have no idea what to do for a gift for FI. One of my good friends that just got married gave her DH a pair of really nice fancy cuff links, which he really loved. He gave her a gorgeous necklace, which she ended up wearing on her wedding day. She opened the gift as she was getting ready and switched it out for the one she was going to wear. I'll probably stick to stuff along these lines, but we'll see. Maybe I'll get inspired.

Hello, I am getting married at the Grand Palladium Colonial on January 22nd. We have 15 others booked (paid deposits) besides FI and myself. We sent out our invites in July via e-mail. We're going pretty informal. Still to do: - buy dress (will either buy a BM dress in white/ivory or off the rack) - book photographer (hotel doesn't have one) - OOT bags - select music for ceremony - wedding bands We're getting legally married down there, so no need to worry about legal ceremony here. We're staying 1 week at the Palladium and then moving to the Aventura Spa Palace for our honeymoon for the 2nd week. Cheers, Jen

Hello, We are having a small wedding at the Grand Palladium Colonial in January 2009. Are there any photographers out there that offer smaller packages (i.e. ceremony pics and some shots afterwards - to ensure that we get more than just Mom & Dad pics)? We probably need a maximum of 1 hour time for this and have a very tight budget. Any recommendations? Thanks, Jennifer

Hello, My name is Jennifer and I'm getting married in the Mayan Riviera in January 2009. We're just in the initial stages of planning so don't have a specific date or resort yet. It will come soon. Cheers, Jennifer
