I'm in the same boat- my dress is hemmed for my 4" heels and ceremony on the beach. I think since they're so high, it mint look funny going barefoot. BUT- I live only a few blocks from a beach and am thinking about going out there to test out some heels in the sand just to see what happens... Silly me...

Shes a very nice lady so I guess thats a plus! And has good reviews! (<-- trying to convince myself I didnt waste $5k haha) Don't stress- I think if you didn't like the photos from your location, try to pin point what exactly it is that you don't like, and make sure to communicate your ideas with her. It's funny you say that your FI will kill you if you don't like her-im in the same boat but with my dress. I got a knock off from china for my TTD- and I'm afraid that I will like it more than my wedding dress(different designer and style) i mentioned to FI and he said he would kill me Anyway- I really hope you love the photos at the end! Don't forget to post!

We WILL be going off site whether he likes it or not and if he ever READ about Riviera Maya he woul realize that there isn't much danger in that area...duurrrrr Ugh I'm getting a little of that 'dangerous' concern from my Gparents- fed to them by an uncle that is not even going!! So frustrating. Nicola- I saw you ask about katies bouquet- There is a random riu blog -I can't find the link- but it shows you some options for the bouuquets. I posted them on our website- ryanandjannae.com under:for my girls, password bella.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE it all!! So creative!!

There will be two photog's there, but not at my request. I get like a dvd and an album with 100 pictures, but still.. doesnt this seem expensive? Some of these girls on this forum are paying for travel costs and its STILL cheaper than what I'm paying. Guess its too late now to complain, I already booked her :/ If you love their work- don't second guess your choice. We're paying about 5200 for 6 hours wedding (plus her asst, so two photogs) ,she is in the area, but part of her fee is one night at the resort, since she is several hours away- then the resort charges extra for staying only one day. Also paying 800 for a diff photog for our TTD- it took me awhile to convince FI to get one so our wedding photog was booked This was my only non negotiable- as soon as I saw our photogs pics- I wanted her only.

Summer: Flip Flops

I went through the same thing- an uncle that is not attending our wedding, told my grandparents (and my grandather has never flown- he's already nervous about that!) about the recent drug war going on in the BORDER towns (nowhere near us) and showed them cnn articles, blah blah. I said the same thing as Kristy- 'Yes, I invited 60 of my closest family and friends to another country so they can get killed by druglords.' They got the point. Good luck- there are always going to be debbie downers about it and try to ruin the fun. Just don't pay attention!!

Gosh I love great RPRM reviews! Why are men so weird sometimes?? FI was so excited about the cave bar when he saw it, then I told him last night that we got the name- he was like, 'well, why are we going to a bar when we're at an all inclusive?' i was like, WHAT? You were loving the idea yesterday!

Totally pumped! Enjoyed my weekend of not paying attention to food *oops* and since we don't have fam out here, we didn't do a traditional dinner, but we DID have pizza and Chipolte
