Hi ladies! I havent been on here in a while. I'm getting married Oct 8th at the Gran Porto Real. What did your grooms and groomsmen wear? I just bought a linen suit for my fiance and linen pants for the guys. Any suggestions for me?? Thanks.

I did my save the dates for totallymagnet.com. I just ordered them yesterday so I will let you know when I get them how I liked them. But we got 100 for $111.00 with shipping and tax, so I thought it was a pretty good deal!!

I'm hoping that after booking, we can take a bit of a wedding planning breather (except I won't stop looking at wedding dresses until the wedding day itself, probably)... We are super undecided about wedding resorts too! I feel like all I do is spend hours trying to sort out the details!!! We are also considering Sandos Playcar, but I love the Grand Palladium and Gran Bahia. So we will see. And I keep trying to not look at wedding dresses but my internetkeeps wandering so those sites. I completely understand!!

Also, I'm glad to see another November 2011 around here--people keep acting like we're crazy to be planning so far out, but I think Nov. will be a great time to be in Mexico. =) My friends think I am nuts to start planning now and my family wants me to pick a resort already. I feel like everyone is on completely different planets!

I would not be happy in a bikini in Mexico with a cocktail in hand....sunbathing.....sorry dreaming again! lol with my flabby thighs! This is my problem area! I know only hard work will help ) it's just doing it, hee hee..... Ok here are my shoes! What do you think! (i know they are high but i am planning on taking some flats with me too....) Excuse my stumpy legs! Just wanted to give an idea of what they look like on! I love these shoes too! I would probably last twenty minutes in them, but they are gorgeous! And Nicy - if you need to lose 21lbs then I really need to get moving. I am hoping for at least another ten and then just some toning.

Hi guys! We are 11/05/11! We still have not picked our resort and I am having trouble with all the options. Any suggestions!!

Cjb0arder- I am actually doing Weight Watchers right now, I started in January and love it. I got my mom and friend to join too! I love it because I am so busy that I don't always have time to work out for like a month, and I still lose weight because I am eating right! becks1581 - I will have to look at both of those places. We are mostly concerned with the cost to guests b/c alot of our friends are planning their own weddings right now and we want as many there as we can get. The other problem is, I love all the either 6 star resorts or adults only and I want children to be there. Haha. I am also detail oriented. I am trying to be patient! I'm glad to hear that other brides feel the same way! I just wish we could afford to go check out the resorts first before booking them! Good luck in May and I hope you find everything you are looking for!!!

Thanks for the welcome! I do have a travel agent, he just does not seem as helpful as I thought he would be. Hopefully, he will impress me soon! Even my Mom is not as helpful as I thought though. She keeps telling me that they are all beautiful! Haha. I'm sure it will be fine. Where are you getting married at?

Hi guys! My name is Jenn and I just joined this site over the weekend. I thought I posted on here... but I guess not. You all seem like such nice people, and I look forward to talking to you all. Art and I are getting married in Riviera Maya on 11/05/11, we just have not picked the resort yet. Any suggestions? I want it to be affordable for my guests and beautiful.. but on the beach.

He guys! I am a 2011 bride!!! We are not getting married until the end of 2011 though, the first weekend in November! And I am also waiting this long because I graduate with my Masters in October! My friends think I am nuts to start planning so far ahead but I am a planner! So where are you all getting married at? I am looking at Riviera Maya but need a kid friendly resort as I have a 7 year old sister and cousins. Any suggestions? I love the Grand Palladium but I think it might not be very cost effective for our guests! Also what else should I be doing this far ahead?
