Jess thanks for the schedule! You probably will catch my wedding!! haha. Sounding like we'll be running back and forth to the bar if we do the bonfire. Not a big deal really. It can't be that far away!

I haven't been on here in ages!! Does anyone know what the weekly schedule is for nightly entertainment right now? I know Tuesday is Caribbean night....anyone know abt the rest of the week?! Also, I would love to know if bonfire offers any kind of beverage service too!

Hmmmm, now what if your MOH (sister) and mother want to throw you a wedding shower for their close friends who can't celebrate the wedding with you in MX. They're mostly family friends. I also have some friends who've said from the get-go that they cant go to the wedding but want to celebrate whatever we decide to do at home (shower, reception etc). My mom insists her friends dont care if they weren't invited to Mexico they want to come to the shower. I'm very uncomfortable inviting ppl coming to the wedding to the shower b/c it looks like i want gifts! And I really don't!! But I want them to be apart of any celebration we have. Can I have 2 invitations, one for my mom's friends with a registry and another for ppl. coming to MX stating they are coming only to eat and drink?!!!... And not mention that I'm registered anywhere. Is it weird to have some ppl. bringing gifts and others not? Ahhh...!

There has been a lot debate between myself and my FI around what the groomsmen should be wearing! Are your groomsmen wearing jackets? ties? And do you think a short sleeved linen shirt is too casual? I don't want anyone to spend a lot on what they're wearing since they are spending the money to come to MX so I've suggested to my FI that we buy the groomsmen shirts for them as a groomsmen gift. I did that with the bridesmaids and bought their dresses for them.

I was surprised when Rebeca told me we have one option for the dinner reception. There is also a vegetarian menu too. I waiting to hear back from her as to whether we can send her our dinner choices about a week beforehand. Also you are allowed to bring your own centerpieces and table runners and napkins-- No charge. I asked if I could bring my own lanterns to hang from trees (las palmas terrace) and she said there is a charge of $70 to hang them.

EDNA--THIS IS GREAT! Thanks for saving me time

Late May into June is when mosquito season is.....I think those are the only bugs that would be a problem...

PS- For those flying to PVR from Toronto it is cheaper than those coming from Vancouver. Go figure. Makes no sense to me!!

Do you know which carrier had that price you told me abt.? That is a really good price!!

Hi Aprilmay. We booked ours with Signature for $1660 from Vancouver. Direct flight. I trust Signature and have heard some horror stories abt other carriers. You can prob. get a last minute rate that is less though....Let me know what you think!!!!

Oh yah and if you bring your own lanterns it's still $70US.

Decorations-----FYI: If you plan on stringing paper lanterns across your reception area (they have white) It will cost you $70 US!! That is, if you're having your reception dinner at Las Palmas terrace. ALso, if you want to borrow tall vases that will be $20 US each. I'm really surprised and think that's a cash grab....I'm bring my own centre pieces with me and am wondering if they're going to charge me for that too??!

And even though you pay his airfare his prices are so reasonable. I would totally recommend him. I know another girl on the dreams pv forum is also using him (autjo). Also Dino Gomez is running a sale right now for BDW members (he is a vendor on here) and he has great photos to and lives in Mexico. Hope this helps! Thanks for telling me abt Nathan!! His work is great! I really like his style. Hopefully I can use him.

Thanks! I will check out all the ones you listed!

I've read threads on Promovision for videography but how abt photography? Anyone used them for photog? There prices are great- it seems just wonder how their photography is. Thnx.
