Great tips, we are scheduling our engagement pics now too!

I am not sure when the season is but I would check out the rainy season and the hurricane season and avoid those. My FI's cousin had a DW in Rivera Maya in the end of October and hurricane wilma interrupted and they ended up having to pay for 2 weddings because they had to leave before the wedding in RM (tip: get travel ins.) Hope that helps!

I personally like when people register at like 3/4 places that way I can go to the stores I like or have coupons too so I get a better deal. Also I read this as a guideline of where you should register: at an upscale store, inexpensive store and a wild-card company like a charity or a honeymoon fund. Here is an article about it too: Wedding Registry Do?s and Don?ts

I love PiPi's too, and Barracuda is a really nice restaurant right on the beach very authentic too (my dad became friends with the owner since they go there all the time) also Aye Carumba has great food and view! Here are some pics of Barracuda - My FI & I literally yards away from our table! View to the left of the beach My family at the table eating chips-lol My brother with his food I can't find the pics I have of PiPi's or Aye Carumba but we framed the pics of the view from Aye Carumba, I will have to search for them.

Thanks, this is interesting and good advice! I hope more brides post there forgotten to-dos...oh and whenever I talk about our wedding with my FI he jokes that I will have nothing left to do after october..I tend to do things early..lol just made me laugh about the hibernating comment!

Congrats! It looks great on you! I love the one strap!

Love them! I was thinking about using a white shirt from my FI for a outfit too. You look great!

Congrats! I am getting married in June in PV too! I looked in to the RIU also, they have great wedding packages! Good luck - check out the RIU PV thread - it should help out!

Did you guys get to chose the readings, pick the readers and the music (is there music?) played during the mass? Thanks!

They look great - I did a triple check when you said you painted them, they look professional. The guests will love them! Be Proud!

I love them - Great job you could go into business doing this!

On the TV show 'Who's wedding is it anyway?' A groom wore under armor shirt under their shirt. I got one for my FI, that way he will stay cooler in his suit during the ceremony.

I am going to have my parents pay when they are in Puerto Vallarta in October and my TA talked about getting a good rate on buses (like the kind you take from the airport) for the ceremony transportation.

I knew right away, it was the only one i loved, I kept smiling and it was the only one that made my mom cry. I tried on dresses at the same place after I tried on the one I got but I kept comparing it to the one I loved! I think when you know you just know.

I love the nicole miller with straps! Good luck with finding the right dress! The best advice I got was "there are no buts except yours in your wedding dress" If something isn't just right or you keep saying, I like it but... (like I did) Then it is not the one!!

Whoo Hoo! We just booked today! I am so excited! I really love the church. We are going to have to drive a little far for the ceremony (45 min) but I have decided not to worry about it! I'm excited for you girls to get married so you can tell me how everything went!

Everything looks great! I love the welcome pack - do you have a template for them? Thanks!

I don't think anyone will notice, they will just notice how great you look! I think you should stick with the dress you love, it will look better on you than it did on her!

They look great! I'm sure everyone will love them!!

We are getting legally married here first then having the church wedding in Mexico. It seems most girls do the legal ceremony at home so its easier! Also then you get 2 weddings!

I haven't registered yet but I know my friend who is checks it all the time! I'm pretty sure I will check it! It sounds like fun to see when people have gotten so far!

I love the pics with the veil! Great idea! They look great your FI is going to LOVE them!

Hey everyone, I need some opinions I found a church I really like but it is about 50 min away from the hotel. The other churches are only 20ish min away from the hotel. We are planning on getting a bus for everyone to get to the church and back so it should be a pretty fun ride. As a guest would you mind the extra time in the bus? Thanks for the help!

I think I am going to go the real touch fake flowers route, I am little worried about them wilting with the heat and humidity. Did anyone have an issue with that? Also I am debating between having them made or going to Michael's and doing it with a lady there.
