Hi everyone,
My name is Aisha and I'm new on these boards. Everything is still pretty new and I really don't have any details as yet. I am a consummate planner so once he asked and I said yes, I got right on it. I have always wanted a destination wedding and I know he will go along. My friend told me about this website so I joined and I am just trying to find out all that I can. I do have some dates and locations in mind however. We are from NJ but he works in TX. We both have caribbean roots. We both want a small, elegant but no fuss wedding.
Dates:
His birthday - October
Late Winter/Early Spring - March, April
Late summer - September
My locations that I am considering are:
St. Vincent and the Grenadines, specifically Union Island
San Antonio, TX (Barr Mansion)
Mexico (not sure where)
St. Lucia (it's beautiful there)
Ultimately, our plan is to have a small wedding with close family and friends (between 30-50 people) and then when we get back home have a big backyard pot luck bar-b-cue, where everyone is invited and come to meet the newly weds. Like I said in the beginning everything is still new and I am so excited to start the planning process.
I would definitely appreciate any help.
Aisha
