The funniest part is while making cuts with both decided we CANNOT cut the Mexican Donkey Cocktail Party. The Donkey seems to be the one keeping us sane when stress kicks in. I think of getting a beer from the donkey and suddenly everything is ok! Good News is budget is now back under a mangeable amount and next stop get this resort BOOKED!!! YAH! In GOOD NEWS I got an email confirmation for my appt at J. Crew Wedding Boutique in NYC. I will be up there for business in July so I am going to MY FIRST offical Dress outing to see what they have. Up till now it's been all on the internet! It's so easy to get overwhelmed when you start adding everything up, but I'm glad you were able to sort out your budget. As long as you get your donkey cocktail hour, it's all good! LOL

Thank you all for the welcome! Quote: Originally Posted by gingerlover36 Congrats! Another March '11 bride!! Oops, I keep writing the wrong date! We are hoping for MAY 7, 2011.

Congrats and welcome!!

bigboponthebeach: Looks like we'll be getting married the same month! I'm sure we will "see" a lot more of each other in the upcoming months!

Hey ladies! I've spent hours reading about your experiences and have chosen AS for our wedding. Thank you SO MUCH for all of your pictures and advice so far, you ladies are awesome! We are waiting to hear from our TA, but have March 7, 2011 as our tentative date. YAY!! Happy planning to all! And congrats to the newlyweds

Welcome and congrats!! I have been with my fiance 8 years, so I know the feeling . I was overwhelmed picking a location too, but contacted a travel agent that specializes in destination weddings, told her my vision and budget, and she recommended some great places. We also researched ourselves to make sure we are getting the best possible deal... We actually got more affordable room rates on our own, but when I told her, she matched the price. Good luck!

Thanks ladies!!! I still haven't signed a contract, but we are looking at May 7, 2011. I'm super excited

Hey ladies! I've spent hours lurking on here and gathering info... I think we'e finally decided on getting married in Riviera Maya, Mexico at Azul Sensatori. You ladies are awesome! Thanks for all of the help so far! Happy planning
