I am going to make little boxes for each one similar to a wine bottle/box. And put them in a suit case. I will probably send some decor with my parents and some with my FI's parents. It will be a pain, but so worth it.
The good places will email you back. Its just hard to find those. Also it helps if you have a correct contact. If you need a contact for a specific vendor or hotel check out to see if their is a forum on here about that vendor or hotel. A lot of them will tell you who is your best bet to email. I have can give you good contacts for Palace Resorts, Del Sol, Decor and Makup hehe =) But it took me months and months to dig through all the slow vendors to find the good ones.
I have Matt, from Del Sol, the photojournalism god, booked for my TTD and Wedding in Feb. I cant wait! I am also an Aventura Spa and Cove Bride. Its a Palace Resort. So far I am just paying for 2 day passes. SO EXCITED!
Here are the La Reve Slideshows I said I would find! del Sol + Le Reve - Photos by Matt Adcock + Sol Tamargo Alysia + John Trash the Dress at Le Reve - Photos by Matt Adcock and Sol Tamargo Stephanie + Jason - 1st Anniversary - Photos by Sol Tamargo Enjoy!
I contact my photographer. Del Sol, they suggested wearing sunscreen during the TTD and Wedding if you are not use to the sun. So being from Wisconsin I will be wearing SunScreen...No lobster look for me =)

I am a bride in the RM area for 2011 too. First off..Hotel... Check out the Del Sol wiki located here...They are photographer that post on these boards. They have taken thousands of pictures of RM and Cancun. They have all the photos categorized by hotel. It gives you a much better idea of what hotels are in the area and what bridal accommodation they have. http://www.bestdestinationwedding.com/wiki/del-sol-photography-slideshows-riviera-maya Once you have decided on a hotel...book your date! My first choice was gone and I booked a year ahead. Also start looking into photographers. I am using Del Sol..They were voted as one of the top ten wedding photographers in the world. At lot of the good photographers book up pretty fast for Sat & Sundays. 2nd. uhm Pricing. Once you decide on a hotel or a few..look up their threads in here. A lot of girls have pricing for 2011. I know I have all the palace resort price and vendor pricing for makeup/decor and photos. Let me know if you need help! 3rd...Send out your save the dates or STD's as soon as you know the date. Will give people time to save money. Post girls send out their STD about a year ahead.
