Maybe we can have a shot together! ;-) We can also plan together and if we are bringing similar things like centerpieces or lanterns, we can maybe share them. What are your colors? For Sure shots will be had! I am going to fly in on May 26th and we are getting married on Monday May 30th! My colors are Navy and Tiffany blue but I am open to anything Yours?

How do you get a wedding ticker to work on your signature?

Yes, you heard that right, I started at post #1 and I am now on page #647 and slowly working my way up like a turtle. My FI thinks I am totally nuts and has told me that I am officially obsessed with this thread. LOL I told him that it was a "research project" for our ceremony and that I am saving us tons of $$$ by reading through here and learning the do's and don'ts. He laughed but funny enough when I mentioned saving $$$, he left me alone. LOL So before I head back to page #647 to hopefully be caught up by the tomorrow, I just wanted to tell you where I am at...... The FI and I really did not feel comfy with our DW.com TA and so we composed a nice little "reassign us or we quit" email late last night. We got a call today and I spent 30 mins venting and whining about all the things we did not like about her. I have to be totally honest and say that it made me very uncomfortable because I felt like a tattle tell that was throwing her under the bus. :-( I didn't like her, but I just wanted to move along without busting her out. I am feeling kind of sad right now because regardless of how I felt about her, I'm sure she is probably a nice person in other scenarios and I don't want to see anyone get in trouble. :-/ Anywho, I guess there will be moments like this throughout the process. :-/ I just wanted to let you all know how phenomenal you all are!!! You guys have banded together and supportive and uplifted one another during a very stressful time! How wonderful is that to know that in times like these, mankind still has it's warmth! Even if it's over the internet!!! :-) I won't be mushy much longer....I just wanted you all to know as a newbie looking from the outside in, it is wonderful to see WOMEN being kind and warm to one another. With that said....I'm off to page #647 to finish catching up! I feel like I should get some points just for reading all those damn pages!!! LOL Have a great weekend girls!!! Welcome!!! These ladies are the best!!!! What day are you getting married? I am shooting for May 30th

Congrats and WELCOME!

Thanks ladies! My date is open at Azul Sensatori so hopefully I can get that all booked then it's on to Save the Dates!

We did the wedding on the beach, and splurged and got the Premium Deluxe Package, because I love flowers Here is an image of the gazebo: Here is a picture of me and the hubby (that's so weird to say!!) during the ceremony: Here we are during the sand ceremony: And here is the set-up for the reception. Since we had the premium deluxe, it was supposed to come with four large baskets of flowers. Our on-site wedding coordinator (who was fabulous!) switched those out for the tall glass vases and then we were able to use the flowers on top as the centerpieces for the reception site, which was great because we were originally just going to use the bouquets. Ladies, do not stress! The wedding coordinators on-site are AMAZING, and do everything to make your day absolutely perfect. Amy, I am so glad you had an awesome wedding also! I was thinking about you on Saturday, and was really happy the weather was great for you also! Can't wait to see more pics!! WELCOME Back!!!! Your pictures look fabulous! I am so glad it went so well!

I am about to confirm my date with AS as well! I have been research for 3 months. These ladies are the best!

This forum is the best! You will find so much information! Congrats and Happy Planning! I am planning on getting married at Azul Sensatori (About 20 min south of Cancun) There is a thread for it on this forum! Just to throw a resort out there for you to research! Have Fun!

Friday was gorgeous weather as well. We snuck down to AS on Monday but I could not hear any Texas accents - was looking for you :-) I will tell you all more later, but my guests who were going to get bumped to AS Fri-Sun b/c Beach was booked were able to stay at Azul Beach all weekend after all - I was so excited! I found out during my wedding why.... There was a onlooker in a bikini sobbing during my entire ceremony and family pictures, and bridal prty pictures on the beach with a friend consoling her. Seriously for an entire hour. Turns out she was supposed to get married that weekend - called off the wedding - and her family still went as vacation. And she sobbed in a bikini and towel 50 feet from my ceremony and pictures!!! Even with the crazy crying girl, I was still so thankful no one has to move to another hotel. Will start working on some photos to post soon. I have to do my planning thread and review as well. The flowers though - were AMAZING. Prettiest wedding flowers I have ever seen. wow wow wow Welcome back! Can't wait to hear and see all about it!

I am about to sign on with Azul Sensatori. I have been looking at resorts for over 2 months now and between this forum and my own research it seems to fit most my needs. I think what I like best is it is both a family and adults only resort in one. That way the families that are coming can have family fun and my crazy friends can do tequila shots and neither group needs to worry about the other! LOL

Ok so I think i might just flip a coin since both Tiffany and Celcia have pros and cons. I guess it is hitting me that I have finally picked a resort and I am about to start the process plus move it up a year. EXCITING and NERVE Racking! I ill let you ladies know how it goes! Thank you SOOOOOO much for all the info, advice, support so far and i haven't even booked yet! Mags

Welcome, Congrats and Happy Planning! This forum is a lifesaver!

Congrats and HAPPY PLANNING!

This forum is the best! Good luck and happy planning!

I resent it to you!

Well ladies, I think Azul Sensatori is going to be it. I am right now in the "budget approval" process with my FI's family and My family so as soon as we get those numbers firmed up I am going to start the booking process for May 2012. Does anyone know if they charge more for holidays? I am thinking Memorial Day May 2012 because we will only need a symbolic ceremony and according to them they only perform those M-Th
