Do you know of another wedding Fernando is doing besides mines and yours on the 12th? According to what he told me, your wedding is 1st priority because you booked before me. He actually said to me that he couldnt do make-up for my wedding bc both of our weddings are at the same time, 4pm. He referred me to his teacher for this reason. I felt like he understood that it would be pretty messed up if he agreed to do both of our weddings because the times are so close. At no point did I feel like he was going to rush with you just to get to me. He has a pretty good reputation and he kept thanking me saying he really appreciates all of our reviews. I dont think he will jeopardize his rep by booking 2 weddings and not giving his brides 100%. Atleast, this is what I got from out conversation. I hope this eases your concerns a little...

Since we probably hve the same concerns lets chat it up!!!!! Welcome!! We should be having another meet up soon.

Quote: Originally Posted by cvdelros I just got married last week on 6/12 and I also used Victor Herrera. He went so far beyond our expectations. He and his crew work so hard to get perfect shots and he has such a talented eye. Because some of his other crew members were free on our TTD and wedding day, they came along to the shoot as well...so we got so much more than we originally asked for - just one example of how thoughtful Victor is. I originally wanted Del Sol, but could afford their prices. We found Victor and got him at over half Del Sol's cost. I was somewhat concerned because there aren't a lot of reviews on him and he isn't as well known...but that's a GOOD thing. He isn't charging outrageous prices and you get extremely high quality work. He's not like other cheesy wedding photographers, he really is an artist. He did both a Trash-the-Dress shoot and our wedding day. He only has the TTD photos available now (Destination wedding photographer Riviera Maya | Victor Herrera Blog scroll down to June 12). Thanks for the review! Its so exciting to finally read something about his work. Your pictures came out beautiful!! Victor definitely seems like hes worth the money. When you get your wedding pictures please post them. Im so excited to work with Adrian in just 4 1/2 months!!

I feel the same way. I live in Houston where it feels like 125 degrees everyday in the summer. My dress is heavy and tight fitting and Im worried I will be too hot. However, its the dress of my dreams and I paid way too much for it, so Im sticking with it. If I get too hot in Mexico Ill just deal with it. I forgot who mentioned it, but I really like that hand held fan idea. Alfred Angelo Style 2083 With Free Alterations Free Ship, discounted wedding dresses bridal gowns prom dresses in new york

Confession: I cant stand the best man! Im secretly waiting for him to do something to make me mad so I can kick him out the wedding. I know its evil, but he doesnt deserve to come. Barbiegirl-the best man did the exact samething to us. Only he booked his DW 3 weeks after ours in the Riviera also. He and FH both share the same friends and now they are forced to choose sides bc they all cant afford to go to both weddings.

I have 5 bm's, which his teacher could do. It would be nice to get some pics of Fernando atleast doing my make-up. No biggie if he doesnt have the time..

I was gonna go with Ana, but she was out of my price range. I just paid my coworker $100 to put together my invites. I guess it depends on what type of invite you want. I researched and researched for passport invites and I didnt find anything for less than $400.

I absolutely fell in love with this dress the moment I tried it on! No other dress compared to it at the time. 3 weeks ago I went to pick up my dress and (1) it was huge on me and (2) I dont feel like it will be good for a DW. I paid way too much for it so Im sticking with it, I just hope I wont feel too hot in it... tani-that dress is gorgeous!

I used a passport templete off this site and handed it off to my co-worker to put together. She is very crafty so I figured it would be way cheaper to pay her a few bucks to put them together as opposed to getting them professionally done. She says they should be ready by this Friday. If they are I will be sending them out ASAP, I added a rsvp date for Aug. 1st as well. Mystea, I feel the same way. Aug gives me enough time to finalize the guestlist and start preparing for oot bags etc. I cant wait to see how many ppl actually plan on coming. So far we only have about 15ppl booked.

Copy & Pasted: They should take their Mexico marriage certificate to the county clerk, get the certificate filed, and pay the filing fee. We had ours translated before bringing it in. Should be relatively straight forward. Because if it's legal in Mexico, it's legal in the US - as a whole. ------------------------------------ We are going to try again with Harris county clerk and see what they say because seriously it doesn't make sense if that couple was able to do that but we can't do it. This actually makes sense. If the US Attorney General says its legal in all 50 states, I dont see why TX wouldnt consider it legal. Hopefully Harris Co. wont give us any issues with filing, it would be nice for the states to have something on file proving our marriage. Im glad that I dont have to get legally married before we leave now. Thats good news!
