We are all so very close! I like the floating Candle idea, I liked how they wrapped the lighting around the poles at the Tucanes but ir seemed to pricey as well. Everyone seems to be going with the BBQ I might need to look into that. I don't have as many guests though, I don't think. Just curious, where is everyone from? I am from Fort Worth, TX.

I will have to look into the the Tiki Torchs, Thank you! Great idea for the marble beads. I will look into those as well. We need to keep each other updated! I am starting to freak out... EeEeK!

My wedding date is 4/20/12, not to far from yours! We are getting married at the Presidential Gazebo. With only 16 guests I figured it woud be perfect. Are you having anyone do the decorating for you? Two of my friends are willing to help decorate to cut cost and my parents said they would take a bag for me. I am going to decorate Tucanes Bar with tealights in bags around the pool. Seems easy to do. I would love the Tiki Torches but it seemed pricey. I really wanted to do 12in vases with water and flowers in them with floating candles but trying to find plastic ones have not been fun. As far as music I was going to bring my ipod and docking station and play that. We just don't have a big enough crowd to get a DJ.

We were on a budget for our wedding and decided to go with the dinner at one of the Hotel's resturaunts but unfortunately they are all booked the night of my wedding. I was shocked by this, so now we are having a private reception and having to pay for dinner. I am a little confused by this becuase this should be included but instead I am having to pick dinners and worry about decorating an area. I don't mind paying money for dinner but the prices in decorations are a little outrageous. I was quoted $10 a vase. Do I get to keep the vase? Gees? I am a little shocked by this whole experience and just thought this would of been a lot cheaper. Valeria is helping me with questions but I am not to please with all the things that keep popping up! We are getting married on the beach and I am wondering what Gazebo you chose or if you had one at all?

I have decided to go with the shoes!!! I didn't want to spend money on multiple shoes but my fiance said it's just another 100 go ahead if you love them. He thinks they are hot as well! Woo hoo, so lucky to have him

Shoes I would love to wear but being that I am 5'9" and my fiance is 6', they are not realistic .

Do you have more pics? I am getting married at El Doraldo Royale and I love your hair and flower! Any help would be appreciated! You look beautiful!

Those are beautiful. I wish I wasn't so tall already

That's my problem! I wanted my shoes to be turquoise and have some bling. That doesn't exist.

Where did you get these? I love them!

We bought our dress at David's Bridal. The dress is so amazing and can easly be worn again.

Valeria didn't mention a cost so I was concerned about that. I do have some close friends that are not in the wedding that would be more than willing to help with setting up. Anything to save money at this point! lol We are having close to twenty guests. The list keeps growing as the date comes closer. The dinner said that we would have four hours of bar, so we are going to skip the cocktail hour and go straight to dinner. Our original plans were to go out afterwards bc of not having such a huge party. I am thinking about bringing something to where my ipod can connect to and having our own music and first dance. We are having our reception in the Tucanes Bar. I loved the beach idea but I was scared of rain if any and the Salon Dorado is just not my style. Our wedding is very simple and flowy ( not sure if that makes sense) haha. Colors are coral and turquoise. Below is our dresses. I plan on wearing some blings turquoise sandals because I am already 5'9". My sister n law told me something last night was a huge wake up call. She told me that she doen't look at her pics regreting the things she didn't do. Everyone remembers it as being a fun time, not what the centerpieces looked like. The beach is enough to take your breath away. Canadian Lydnsey said the same thing above. Makes me feel so much better about things.

Our wedding us nearly five months away and I am starting to stress out! So everything is adding up and we are paying for everything out of pocket! So I am curious as to what I should cut corners on. We hired a photographer and videographer. We are doing a private reception which was unexpected but I am glad we are doing it. I asked about bringing my own decor and they said we would have to pay fees on those things but I am curious as to how much that would cost. Has anyone ever taken there own decor to save money?

I love both! but the detail of the second dress is beautiful!

I have the same problem! I am way to tall and I don't want to look taller so I am having to find flats. I was looking for a cute pair of blue/turquoise blingy flats! Is that to much? lol

Very cute!

I decided to go with a sandal but I can't find the perfect one yet... any suggestions on places?

Thanks for the site!

I am so lost on jewelry. I am typically a girl that wears big blingy earrings and bracelets but when it comes to the wedding I don't know what to do bc of the hair piece I would like to wear as well. Oh I am so lost!

We are getting married 4/20/12. I am at the point where I don't know if I should be doing anything because I know it will be here tomorrow. Who is your photographer?

Hey Angi... It took a few days for a response but I did get one. Who are you working with exactly?

I agree! The dress is beautiful!

I fell in love with it bc it just flowed. The Bridesmaid dresses are from Davids Bridal Style F14169 .

Thank you for that info! I have just discovered Etsy and I loooooveeee it! I will have to locate her.

Thanks for the advice on the primer. I have used MAC products for several years and can't seem to shake to oily skin. I will definately try those out. I find two faced eye primer works really well.
