For table arrangements, I'm going back and forth with them as we speak because they are wanting to charge me an arm and a leg for centerpieces. I have over 80 guest booked (105 nights) and you would think they would work with me...NOT SO MUCH. I cant believe your wedding is only a week away!!! so exciting...please tell us youre going to write a review when you return...i feel like there hasnt been one written about ASP in awhile...also as many pics as possible will be wonderful! I cant believe you are having so many people stay there and they arent working with you with price...keep us posted how you make out with the centerpieces and anything/everythign else...

Yes! 20 min cardio, shoulders, and abs remember ladies..losing weight is 70% diet, 30% exercise...so make sure youre watching what you eat too!

Hello! your ttd pics look like they are going to be awesome! I think im going to wear my same dress but I do have 2 concerns...im leaving the next day on my flight home...what did you do about your dress? was it still wet? how did you get it on the plane? also was your dress completely ruined or did it come clean after you had it professionaly cleaned? my dress is all satin, i dont know what to expect afterwards...thanks..nicole

futuremrsrell-Ive read many many posts where the bride says to definitely go for the video...it costs about $350, its better to do something then not to when you can never go back and do it again..im definitely purchasing the video because alot of my family members will not be able to come to Mexico so I want to share the video with them when I get home...also I think that day goes by so fast that it is nice to be able to go back later and re-live it just my thoughts...

Yes yes yes! today 30min cardio and leg workout with abs...ill be honest, i probably couldve kicked it up a notch with both cardio and weights...okay...going harder tomorrow!!!

I say change the date..if you change it for the day before it shoudnt really mess up anyones travel plans...most of my people are coming down 2-3 days before my wedding, so they wouldnt care if it was a different day...only if the chapel is that important to you, if the date is more important i would say choose a different chapel...thats going to be a loooooong day if you get married at 10am and the reception isnt until 6...just my thoughts....good luck

Tux or casual digs for the guys?
nicdeb928 replied to Diva's topic in Destination Wedding Dresses, Wedding Attire & rings
Ive looked at a million of DW pics and im torn also...I bought a beautiful, expensive mermaid ivory satin wedding gown, my girls are wearing satin coral knee length cocktail dresses....us ladies are going to look gorgeous so i dont feel as though the guys should be dressed sloppy...they can wear beach clothes the other 5 days they are there...i feel that even though its in Mexico its still my wedding day so everyone should be dressed nice..i told my FI I want him in a black suit b/c it looks sharp next to my white dress...he had no problem with it..were both undecided about his groomsmen...im thinking black suit pants for the guys with short sleeve yellow or baby blue dress shirts, no ties, then my FI could wear the same color tie as the guys shirts...what do you ladies think about that? what color goes good with guava (coral) blue? yellow? i was also thinking blue shirts and then yellow flowers for the girls...so many decisions...i just want my pictures to look sharp and elegant but with a beach background...Nicole -

You also get the $1500 vacation dollars which you can use for tours, spa, private dinner and room upgrade. They are two separate entities one deals with reservations ($1500) and the other is considered group amenities (25+ rooms booked). For your guest: 3-4 nights they will earn $750 5+ nights they will earn $1500 The promotion will be credited to their room once they check in. Guest must check in on dates June 1st thru December 23, 2011 to be eligible. Hope this helps! Thank you so much this helps alot! works out good for our guests and us!

Both of those places are beautiful! im planning on having 40-50 people so were having the cocktail hour at the Cove Terrace and our reception at the Maraccas Terrace (so any pictures of how it looks when you return will be much appreciated THe Solarium Mundaca looks stunning, i was worried that it would be too big for my smaller crowd...that sounds awesome with your photographer, im sure he will give you everything you want! where are you thinking about doing the ttd session? im trying to find another place because our resort doesnt have an actual beach/ocean...let me know what you decide...so excited for you...i cant wait till mine is that close
