Fiance and I decided we want to get married in Cancun next month!! We have never been to Cancun before and I have no idea where to start - I could really use some help finding a place to get married! It will just be the 2 of us so I'm looking for someplace intimate and romantic. I did take a look at the accommodations & site thread but it's hard to tell which hotel / venue would be right for us. Can I find a list of all the venues that do weddings somewhere? Any recommendations or advice would be very much appreciated!

What a great deal - thanks for sharing!

I agree the bustle looks great! Beautiful dress!!

Christina - maybe you should try emailing the dressmaker to see if they will give you a partial refund? I know sometimes small flaws don't show up well in photos but they can be obvious in person. I tried on a sample dress at Davids Bridal that looked pretty beat up - it had makeup stains on the front and loose threading around the edges, but none of that showed up in the pictures I took. For a wedding dress, I think small details like that are important! Your dress does look pretty in the pictures but if you don't love it, you should try and see if a refund is possible.

I struggled with this also and finally decided to go without a veil.. it's pretty but too traditional for a beach wedding in my opinion

How tall are those heels? Love the color!

Their prices do seem really good, I would also love to know if anyone has purchased from them before

lol @ Island Bride, I'm glad you found your dress. How much did it cost you? I'm planning to get my next dress online because they have such great prices, but it's kind of hard when you can't try them on first. If I could find one at a local shop for a comparable price I think I would probably do that.

Hi girls, I purchased this dress on ebay but I decided that I really want a different style, so I'm trying to sell it before I buy another dress! This dress has a sweetheart neckline and is really pretty. It's very elegant and the beadwork is extremely intricate and detailed. I love the that front and back are rutched making it very figure flattering. It's a size 2 and fits snugly like a wedding dress should. My measurements are 34B-25-36, and I'm 5'2", but I ordered it longer figuring I could have it hemmed later. I also asked for straps, but they can easily be removed if you want to wear it strapless. I just like having the option! Except for these photos, this dress has never been worn. It cost me a little over $200 with shipping, but I will sell it for $150 with shipping included! Please feel free to send me a message if you have any questions. I apologize for the quality of these photos - I took these myself with only a table lamp for lighting. I'll try to post some better photos later. Front: Another picture of the front with flash: Had to take it off to take a picture of the back - I'll try to post one of the back while I'm wearing it. I love that the back is a V shape. Beading detail:

I am so sorry this happened to you! Definitely check with your credit card company (if that's how you paid) to see if there's anything they can do. I know some cc companies will do charge backs up to 6 months or longer after the purchase. Good luck.

That is so cheap it's ridiculous. Congrats on getting such a beautiful dress at an amazing price!! Now you can splurge on other things

I got a quote direct from an event design company in Cabo and it was about $300 for a very simple chuppah with white cloth only (no flowers or decorations).

Maybe you can try looking at a bookstore like Barnes and Noble, I've seen something similar before in the wedding section. Also Hallmark and Things Remembered sell nice guest books as well.

Khakis are too casual for me, so we are thinking about a light colored linen suit instead of a traditional tux

My dad might not attend the wedding, so I was actually considering having my fiance's dad walk me down the aisle. We're not super close, but he's a great person and I think he would be happy to do it.

I also love this idea! It sounds so romantic. I'm not a wine drinker at all, but I like the idea of a time capsule. Maybe we'll put our own mix of things in the box, like a dvd of the wedding (afterwards) in addition to the letters. I found this keepsake box online that would be great for display. This one actually looks too small but I like the thought of putting a photo on the front of the box:

Target has some really cute modern looking thank you cards. I bought some for a friend's baby shower and they had a lot of nice of choices. If you want to wait until after the wedding to do photo cards, you could address the envelopes now as you receive the gifts and still send them out after the wedding - still less work!

I'd love to have something with color - this one might be a bit bright for me, but I love the idea

I'm also torn about this! So glad I found this thread. I think a veil looks really good with your hair down (or at least half down), but I kind of wanted to wear my hair up and I don't like the way veils look with full updos. Also even though I think veils are really pretty, it might be a bit too traditional for me. Flowers definitely say "beach wedding" in my opinion!

Hi Brenna I haven't used them before but I did a search and found this page of reviews: http://www.projectwedding.com/vendor/show/anna-bellagio

It looks gorgeous! I like the material - it's perfect for a beach wedding.

Are you flexible as far as the date? I remember reading somewhere that rates in March can be higher because of Spring Break. Maybe you can ask them if it will be any less for a different month, like February or April.

Thank you Dino! I was talking about the Cabo San Lucas Marina, so that would be perfect!

Does anyone know how far Sunset da Mona Lisa is from the marina? We are thinking about staying near the marina and having our wedding at Sunset.

Can I ask what the rates are for Baja Weddings? It sounds like you made very informed decisions. I hope you had a great time! Where is your wedding going to be?
