Congratulations!! You will love this site. Happy planning.

If you want to order the fans in color check this site. They run about $1.00 each. http://www.favorsandflowers.com/palm...amboo-fans.htm

Thanks for the photos and ideas!! This was already on my list and I was planning on attaching the programs also. Now you ladies have made my work easier with the detail instructions. I was going to buy the stuff play around until I got it right. :-)

Welcome and happy planning.

ummmm... I understand all sides but my humble opinion, since you asked. :-) If it were a man in MOST cases it would be Dr and Mrs as with ministers Rev and Mrs. So I would start with your FI. How does he feel what does he recommend? For me that would be the only opinion that would really matter to me. Now, I would say on all the favors, programs and etc it should simply be YOUR NAME and HIS NAME. But if you want to be introduced as Mr and Dr....it's your wedding do what you want!

You have tough decision! But I voted for dress #2! It looks like it is chiffon and I am always partial to chiffon. Especially if you are having a beach wedding. BUT...why not get both one for the wedding...one for the reception. -OR - one for the wedding and one for the AHR. :-)

those are beautiful!

Do you have any pictures?

I love your book Erika! Thanks for sharing.

More resources for you,... 1. Excursions, Tours and Circuits in Dominican Republic 2. http://www.viator.com/tours/Punta-Cana 3. http://www.puntacanaexplorer.com/activities.html

welcome! This site is full of resources so happy planning.

Looks great! Look better than my first two attempts. :-) The font used for the location and the date are hard to read. It could be my senior eyes. Maybe a plain text like Calbri or such?

LOVE the dress! No to the shoes. The ivory color is distracting with the white dress. So if you you wear espadrilles then I recommend wearing color.

Congratulations and keep us updated with the plans!

Congratulations and welcome! I recommend looking at Punta Cana also most of their resorts are all-inclusive. So even if you have a private reception the cost may not be as much. 1. I agree with the above post to narrow down a couple of locations then research!!! 2. If you are having a symbolic or civil wedding you will need to check the laws for each country. 3. If you are on a budget, I would recommend looking at the free add-ons each resort has to offer. 4. There is a section for popular Carribbean locations. You many want search there to learn about the experience of other brides! Happy Planning...you will love this site.

Congratulations and welcome! Post the wording for your invitations, it may help someone tie the RSVP in for you.

Thanks for the dollar tree update. Also if you go into the store and they don't have enough of the items you would like to purchase. You can order from the store and they will either ship to the store or you home. Quote: Originally Posted by sammysgirl I love the dollar tree!

Funny my FI loves that store and will be upset that does not get to take a field trip to the dollar tree.

I will post pics and instructions soon Oh I can't wait to see the instructions.

If I don't get around to making a petal runner, I will order one of these in my color.

I love the key and tip holder...great idea! Also the handwritten place cards add a personal touch!!

I'm ordering all my stuff this week. I can't wait 'til everything comes in so that I can finish!

I love the wording, clever!

Maybe by the time I am ready to do some stuff for my wedding they will have some free specials again! They will have free stuff. Once you order something they will send you free offers twice a week. The longer between orders the more free stuff they send you.
