  1. Congratulations!! Planning is so much fun.
  2. F&B Manager, soon to be Director of Front Office Operations at a 5 star resort.
  3. For me it was easy, not very religious so a church wedding was out of the picture anyway. We absolutely love Mexico and really want to show our family and friends how great it is.
  4. I love Sophie Kinsella books for the beach, easy reads and very funny.
  5. I wouldn't worry about it, its not like they can come to your resort without paying for a day pass and 5th Ave is so busy that even if you were there at the same time the chances of even seeing them is slim.
  6. We have about 40 ppl going for our wedding next April. The majority is flying out of Halifax, but we're having problems too finding packages out of Ottawa, Toronto and Edmonton that arrive at roughly the same time and approximately the same price. The package out of Edmonton is $500 higher than the Halifax pkg!
  7. You won't be disappointed with either of them! Both are great spots it really depends on what you feel like doing. Xcaret has a great show in the evening that you must stay to watch if you go there. Xcaret has options for both relaxing and doing things (nice beach area, float down the river, swim with dolphins etc. Xplor is more of an action packed day with zip lines, underground rivers, jeep tours, etc. Both have lots of options for food & drinks and for the most part reasonably priced.
  8. I booked the Grand Sirenis in April of this year for our wedding next April. My aunt is a TA and she got us an amazing deal $1359 taxes in leaving from Halifax from April 20 to the 27. I figured we would be looking at between $1500 to $1800 by booking that early. We also get a one time price reduction if the price goes down prior to our departure.
  9. baileybutton - can you keep me updated on your finds, I'm in Nova Scotia and having a hard time finding the items I want at an affordable price.
  10. I keep changing my mind on this but right now my colors are orange and pink with a bit of green.
  11. What about stamping the envelope, maybe with a palm tree or some other tropical item.
  12. I have been to 6 resorts in the Riviera Maya, the Ocean Turquesa is nice, close to the airport (about 25 minutes) and we had oceanview rooms without paying extra for it. The beach is one of the nicest I have been too and its kid friendly. Not sure about therir weddings. When I was there 4 years ago it was very quiet and laid back, loved their lobby with lots of couches and Ocean Views. I have also stayed at the Grand Xcaret and wouldn't recommend that resort, my least favorite trip, although location was good for offsite activities.
  13. Check out the Ocean Turquesa, I was there about 4 years ago and its only a 20 to 30 minute drive from the airport. Loved the lobby, you could see the ocean from it and the beach was nice. Our room was an ocean view and we didn't have to upgrade or pay extra for this at the time. They have a kids pool and I think there was a kids club there too.
  14. They do ship to Canada, however I put a few things in my shopping basket (about $60 worth) and the shipping was $35.
