Hey my fellow May ladies!!! I need your advice about my STD's... http://bestdestinationwedding.com/fo...4/#post1354281

$2400 for Sungold Associates. (in Jamaica) 2 photographers. 8 hours on the wedding day + TTD session the day after DVD with all the pictures edited. Online photo show. .... so no prints, but that's not a big deal for me. It's easy to get done here.

Okay, so FI and I are stuck between 2. 1 or 2 ? Help. (excuse the low quality JPEGs) 1. 2. & this is the back of the STD postcard: So... 1 or 2?

I don't think you have to invite someone just because they're inviting you... especially if it's a DW. I'm sure she'd understand that only your family and closest friends will be there. I mean, my wedding will be mine and FI's BEST friends (pretty much just our close circle that we do everything with) and close family. If I start getting into co-workers I'm friends with, plus extended members of my friends group it would just get really tricky. I think it's easier just to leave it at that, but that's just me I know I've been invited to many acquaintances weddings (mostly 2nd cousins and such) but I never felt obligated to invite them to mine... they just had HUGE weddings, something I'd never want.

The lobby bar is a pretty good size and an easy meeting spot. That's what I'd recommend. (plus, drinks! !)

I rarely get : down time

I love these! Great job!

Welcome! I'm sure you'll love it here, it's so addicting!! I don't know much about the resorts, but I'm sure you'll find tons of brides here that have or will be getting married there to help you out

Welcome!! When I got engaged we were originally set of Riveria Maya and fell in love with Dreams Tulum. After crunching numbers and doing research we moved over to Jamaica and found it a better option for us. Easier to get married there, cheaper (we would have never expected it), and something new for us as we've both been to Mexico more than a few times. Either option is awesome, that's just how my "journey" took me Welcome and congrats!! You'll be addicted to this site very soon

Welcome and congrats on your upcoming wedding!

Thanks for your advice! It's really appreciated. I think we'll just send STD's to everyone and see what happens. It's such a touchy subject... I mean one of my best friends told me to my face a few years ago that people who have DW's are "completely selfish", after I had told her that was what I wanted. THANK GOODNESS she has since lightened up because she's one of my bridesmaids and I need her there! If one of my best friends feels that way I have no idea what kind of drama it's going to stir up in my extended family... uggh... let the drama begin!

We were hanging out at the pool with the best man and his girlfriend, doing shots at the pool side bar and playing in the sun... and if we all made it through the ceremony it was a miracle, but dinner was at 6 and many people left early - too tired, too sun stroked, too much to drink, the groom's parents included. They also planned to go to the disco later in the evening and hardly anyone showed up! At least if your wedding is earlier, you can party WITH your guests later in the day and if they're all hammered, you will be too, so who cares. LOL Good point! Now I'm going to have to make sure everyone takes it easy during the day of. I don't want to loose anyone early in the night! How was the wedding if you don't mind me asking. That's where I'm getting married next year and I'd love another review

I need some advice ladies (and gentlemen if you're watching), We pretty much know who will be attending our DW through speaking to people. We've been together forever and for the past few years everyone has known we'll be doing a DW. Anyway, neither of us have a large extended family. FI's Dad's side is in the Czech Republic and he doesn't really talk to them. His Mom's side lives across Canada and he's not close to either. My Mom's side is non-existent since her brother and sister died young. My Dad's side is the issue. I'm not really close to my Dad. We've had a rocky relationship with many problems. I still love my grandparents and aunts, uncles & cousins on his side, but because of my relationship with my Dad we aren't as close. The other issue is they're not really "traveling types", they're also really religious and I don't think they'd approve of what will happen at an All-Inclusive resort. Do I still invite them? I know they won't come, but this is where I need your help. Etiquette-wise, would it be better if I sent them an invite anyway, or is that just like "rubbing it in"? I mean, I think my Dad's parents may be a little hurt that I'm not getting married in a church in our home small town, but that's not me. FI and I are lost. Do we invite all these Aunts, Uncles & Cousins knowing that they probably will have no interest in coming? I'll be sending out my Save The Dates within the next 2 weeks so I need help.

My grandfather is walking me down the aisle. He's my hero and has been a constant father figure in my life where my real Dad has often fallen short. He also had an awful stroke 5 years ago and recovered against all odds. Although he's half paralyzed, he can still walk short distances with a brace and someone for him to lean on (ie. me). <3 If it weren't for my grandpa I'd be walking solo

I really like the 2nd one. Simpler logos are so much more elegant IMO

Welcome! It's a beautiful resort!! I stayed at a different resort in Cancun 3 years ago, but visited Dreams Cancun to swim with the dolphins.
