I found a dress I really like for a good price on Perimart.com. Its over half off the other sites I have looked at. Has anyone ever ordered from Perimart ? If so, how is the quality of thier dresses? And how is the shipping? The only thing that concerns me is that they are based in China. Any help would be great, Thank you, Stacy

I checked that sight and they have the dress I want for half the price of anywhere else. Did you buy your dress from that sight. If so, how long did it take to get your dress? And how is the quality? Thanks Quote: Originally Posted by beachbride09 I found my dress here: PeriMart.com An international shopping site :: Bridal :: Wedding Dresses

Thanks for the suggestions. I have contacted Elizabeth and A Sunset Wedding. She seems to have decent prices and seems to be very accomidating to what we want. Has any one else used her? We are also looking for a relaxed beach hangout for after the wedding and she suggested Tabascos, I found one page on line. I was just wondering if anyone else has been there. Thanks, Stacy

After much thought and research, we decided the best way to handle it was to get married on the ship (our legal ceremony)on embarkation day in Long Beach and then have our "beach" ceremony on the beach in Cabo. We felt it was the easiest way (although we are having to pay for two ceremonies---it is still way cheaper than a traditional wedding in AZ) and we couldn't be happier with our decisions so far. We are doing a trash the dress photo shoot while there also. Photos were very important to us so we will have our formals on the ship and then some beach formals and then the fun TTD photos as well. I did contact several of the WC in Cabo and some of them were too expensive for what we wanted but there was a couple of them that had pre-made packages which were reasonable....and they have handled cruise brides so they are aware of the time constraints that we have. What cruise line are you going on? We are going on Carnival so we are only in Cabo til 3pm so it will be a little tight but very do-able! Good luck---I am sure you will find a WC in Cabo that can help you out. There is another website that is cruise related and there is a great wedding forum there----great info/recommendations/reviews for cruise brides on there. If you would like the website, just let me know. I don't know if I am allowed to post it here. Barbie We too are going to do the legal part before Cabo. I looked into and you have to have blood work done. And since I have a horrible fear of needles, that would be the last thing I want to do on the morning of my wedding. So we are looking for a simple beach ceremony for about 20 people with no reception. We are going to be going on NCL in March. Do you mind me asking which wedding coordinator you are going through? And how much you guys are paying for a beach ceremony? I feel like some of the prices are kind of high, but then again I have never planned a wedding like this either. Thanks for your help, Stacy I send you a private message as well with my e-mail.

We are actually leaving out of LA, but I know that there are a few that go down there that leave out of San Diego and LA. We are actually going through NCL. We have cruised with them before and really like thier fleet of ships and service. 17 people booked and counting! Stacy

Thank you for your reply. I guess I just thought planning a smaller wedding would be a lot less stress. Anyway, we have about 17 people booked on our cruise right now, and probably about 10 to 12 people still unsure. My guess is we will be close to 25 people. Which is perfect for us. Stacy

Hello, I have been cruising the forum since we decided to do a destination wedding a couple months ago. We just booked a Mexican cruise that stops in Cabo last weekednd. So I am now in the process of trying to set up my Cabo wedding. I am finding it somewhat frustrating, becasue we will only be in Cabo for the afternoon, so I feel I am limited in what I can book. Any help would be great. Thanks, Stacy

So I feel my situation is somewhat unique on this site, and maybe in general. My fiance and I booked a week cruise down to Mexico, and one of the stops is in Cabo. We would like to get married on the beach while we are in port for the day. We are not looking for anything fancy, simple ceremony on the beach with a small cake. I have e-mailed about 5 different planners in the past two weeks and only one has gotten back to me with a wedding worksheet. I don't know if my wedding is going to be small so they don't want to waste thier time, or if it usually takes them a couple weeks to come back with a quote. At this point I am feeling nervous becasue the cruise in March 2009, only like 6mo away. Does anyone have any suggestions of companies that do these types of weddings? I really don't want to book it through the ship, but if no one is returning my phone calls and e-mails, I may not have a choice. Thanks, Stacy
