Oh and I still havent heard back from Pilar on centerpieces but since you've all heard back I'm assuming she'll tell me the same thing.

ohh lots of fun posts since I last checked T&A I love the colors you picked. I am doing orange, yellow, and red so depending on what you do for your centerpieces we could possibly still share. Your butter and melon colors would fit perfectly with my theme. I'm glad your getting married on the 3rd so I can peek in on your wedding too! And of course you're welcome to peek in on mine. Lisa I'm sorry we're going to miss you...just by 2 days

The biggest reason I am upset is because I have other close friends I could have asked, but I was trying to keep the wedding party somewhat small (4 BMs) because my FI and I are covering their hotel costs. So i had my two best friends and my two closest cousins. I didnt think I'd have any issues with family. But now that my cousin is being a big "B", I feel like its rude to ask one of my other friends because it makes it seem like they are 2nd choice. So i dont know how to handle it now.

I will be there May 2-13 so I'll definitely be there for your wedding!

Do I have a date twin? Who else is May 6th?

Well they only do 2 weddings a day max so they probably just wanted to you be a decent time ahead or after me. I dont think it matters where the ceremony is. But I'm still excited you'll be there the same time as me. I may have to peek in on your ceremony, but i promise i won't be a gawker and make it weird/uncomfortable!! Â

I havent heard back from Pilar yet, but I'll fight her on the centerpiece issue too. Lisa and Primavera...what were you planning for the other tables? Maybe since we'll all be down around the same time we can figure out a way to share costs on centerpieces? What colors were you girls planning? I was thinking of maybe just doing floating candle centerpieces and then putting flower petals or colored beads around them.

When it comes to my BM (who is my cousin), I definitely feel like she could just let her profs know she's going to be out for 2 days and if there are any midterms those days she could take them early. I know she misses class just b/c she was out partying the night before or whatever, so thats why it hurts my feelings that she's making a big deal out of "midterms". But oh well, it's my wedding and i am going to try to not worry about anyone else (even though its really hard)! Â Richarsd, I am sorry about your BM too. Why are people so selfish?? And I know it's not good to hear anyone else is going through rough times with wedding planning but I guess it's nice to talk to other people who understand. Let's just F* 'em and worry about nothing else except having fun weddings with people who care enough to show up!

Oh Dilara I am so sorry. I feel bad that I was complaining about my BM now because your situation is even more complicated! I really hope your sisters do get to go, and I am sorry you mom is not being supportive. When it comes to your friend, i think you should say something. If you've been friends for that long, you need to let her know how you feel. I thought destination weddings were supposed to be less stressful, but i am constantly stressed!!

Thank you Lilly, that does help!

I dont know if anyone reads this thread anymore but my BM just called to back out because she MIGHT have midterms that week. I am so pissed!

My ceremony is on the beach at 5:00 on Friday May 6th. Â

Oh i love that! I have to find somewhere to use it now

Cute idea..thanks for providing the link

I am definitely going to do something similar. How many weeks before the wedding did you send them out?

Thank you!

We're going for 12 days...Monday to the following Friday. Our wedding is on a the first Friday and then all of our guests will gone by Monday so we'll have a couple days to ourselves. Im excited for both parts: party with friends the first half of the vacation, then a little romance

Thanks Tammy!

I'm having mine at an all inclusive and my FI flipped when he found out all the extras they are charging us for. We actually get 25 people included in our package but we're having 70 guests so we have to pay $67/per person for those extra 45 people. I think it's pretty standard.

I didnt realize you were going to be the day before me. Now you'll be 2 days before me . Â

I considered all of the Dreams Resorts...i really liked them all. When it came down to Dreams Tulum and the Now resorts for me, I considered my guests who are only coming for 3 days. The Tulum resort can take 2 hours to get to from the airport on the shuttle (if there are any other stops), and Now Jade is only 20 minutes away. I didnt want people spending 4 hours of their time in 3 days just getting to and from the airport...especially after they just flew all this way for us. That was really all it came down to though. So if you dont have people making short trips, I think they're both really awesome. Â

I've been trying to hard and only in the 60's...i cant wait to download all the templates in the DIY threads.

Now i can't wait to play it for my FI...i love it!

Did you decide what you're going to do?

I love all these song ideas...thanks! I don't think I want to go sappy for the father/daughter dance though...i want it to be fun. I am so confused!
