We sent invites and save the dates to everyone! No matter what. Even if you know they wont be able to come it is proper etiquette to invite everyone and they will RSVP no. And you never know the people who say they wont or cant come usually end up coming. SO I wouldnt rule someone out automatically. So send everyone the Save the dates and everyone an invite.. IMO.

Hmm now you have me thinking. I have the three boys who I have babysat for 11 years as our ring bearers but Im thinking the oldest will really be a junior grooms men. I got him a different color shirt then the ring bearers and that works out. So he is right in between. I was a junior bridesmaid when I was 11 or 12.

#3 is my absolute favorite!

Hey girl! Dont freak out! Your letting yourself get overwhelmed and that is not the point of a DW. Your first step would be to research and pick a resort. There are Travel agents on here that can help you. (ex. TA Jennifer, TA Maureen) Once you do that I think you should pick a definite date and send out Save the dates. To let everyone know of your plans and to give them notice to start saving. I would also make a website for family and friends to visit and you can update with any and all information about the resort, location, and your wedding. Once those first two steps are done everything else will fall into place. You have quite a bit of time so dont stress out. The third most important step would be to pick a photographer and book them so you know they are yours for your special day. You will find tons of helpful and useful information on BDW and everyone is here to help.

Yah I def. agree with amandseth, you should omit the "any objections". To be safe!

Hi Rebekah! Welcome to the forum! Happy planning and good luck!

Your post brought me to tears. Your grandmother sounds like an amazing woman. It seems like we need more people in this world like her! I can only imagine what you are going through and I am so very sorry. Spend as much time with her as you can and you will always hold those memories of her close to your heart. And remember she will be with you on your special day and you will think of her so try and be excited. Its your big day!

Wow that is really sad that your mother is acting like a selfish child and Im really sorry she is putting you through this 6 weeks before your wedding. So you asked her not to come and she booked her flights and trip?! Talk about wanting to really ruin your day. She is doing this on purpose and what you should do is act like you dont care. Anything she says just say "Ok". IT will literally make her go crazy. I guess the problem with her coming is that you can not stop her from coming to your wedding. But you are going to have to pretend like she doesnt even exist, try really hard not to let it bother you. Ignore what she says, in one ear and out the other. Dont let anything ruin your day just think about you and your FI and where you are.. in paradise and your special day and how much you two love eachother and nothing can stop that or ruin it! Keep your head up! and like I said give her nothing to go off of. Just say "Ok"

I think people always procrastinate with responding. We sent out save the dates in feb/march and we only had 2 families book and my parents. They did this because they knew being past guests of sandals/beaches. Rooms would sell out and the prices would go up. I tried and tried and TRIED to tell people to book. Even if they decided they couldnt go they would get their entire deposit which was only $400, back. And that way they would lock in the good rate and get the rooms they wanted. Now people are like the rooms are seling out and they are too pricey.. and I feel like saying I told you so! I told you to book it 7 months ago when the price was right... BUT nO. they couldnt listen. So I feel like no matter when you send STD's or invites people will still be people.

LOVE! cant wait for ours in January before our wedding! Going to the hairdresser?
