That sounds lovely Kay

Great to find this thread. FI and I started Insanity last month and stuck to it for the first few weeks, I then had a crazy week at work and missed 5 nights in a row ... haven't ever made it back After reading some of your posts though I'm determined to get back on it so going to start again from week 1 this week - DIG DEEPER!!!!

great job

Congratulations! I love the felt balls, definitely going to look into that a bit more! Would be fab to see some of your TTD photos too

fab ideas, i love the matches idea, especially because it has some sentimental meaning to how you met ... very cute!

love the mini maracas and your colour choices, they look great!

Love seeing all the great ideas on here, well done to all they all look amazin! I can't wait to do mine

Hey mrst2b, I'm a fellow UK bride, we're all booked up for July 2013 but like you, we had to wait quite a while before being able to book. We booked our photographer pretty much as soon as we booked the venue but that was more for our budget planning! We've never been to GP either, although have been to Riviera Maya so know it's a stunning part of the world. I found so much help in this forum (I spent days reading every single page) and also got loads of great information on the palladiumaddict.net website. We picked the resort for the same reason as you, it'll definitely be nice to get some quiet time during the fortnight Sorry I'm not sure about the ring query and don't think I've read anything online about that similar, but you could always drop the wedding co-ordinator an e-mail to ask her?

brebuisson02 I'm sure the purple will be lovely, the rustic colours sound lovely too! We're undecided with colours at the moment but were thinking maybe a teal colour or alternatively gold. I think any colours would look lovely in such a pretty setting!

Hey Mikeycelle, We have Gonzalo Nunez booked for both our wedding and TTD. Have you orgnised your photographer yet?

We're doing a TTD at the cenote's (which we are super excited about) a few days after the wedding. We hadn't planned on doing it at first but after we saw some photos we thought it would be so much fun and a great excuse for us to sneak away from our friends and family for a day

Just bumping girls and guys, any other UK brides struggling with OOT bags?

Welcome Breanna and congrats on getting your wedding plans firmed up! Let the countdown begin

I think this is really cute! You could even just put some text across the middle to break up the red cross a little? You could wrap the text around the middle corner if that makes sense like : t o o much fun too much s u n do you get the idea? Use a nice font and turn the text so it's facing the right way?

Waow 40 days you must be super excited! The maracas sound lovely and will be a nice touch that they fit so well with your theme

your hangers look amazing, I'm definitely going to try these now! Thanks

You are so organised that's great! Would you mind forwarding me the florist info from the GP and from Alquimia Events ... I hadn't even thought about the bouquet had just assumed they would be beautiful considering the gorgeous flowers we saw all around last time we were in Mexico! My email is [email protected]. That would be really helpful thanks! I love this forum for reminding me of all the little things I might not have considered. That's really great you have some photographer friends who will be abkle to celebrate with you as well as capture all the special moments

Great idea! I wonder if they can be filled easily with other drinks or if you'd mostly be limited to water? The space saving is a huge bonus!

great job ... well done

Great job, I'm sure your guests will love them!

these look fab - well done!

If you go for a private reception you will pay per person $50-60, however if you have less than 40 guests you can dine for free (included in the cost) in one of the restaurants. The photos of Portofino lok amazing and really quite private despite being 'in' a restaurant because you get sole use of the terrace area

Great idea to bring the mosquito coils - thanks

Hi Mikeycelle, I can't wait till your wedding now to hear how fantastic it is You have a large wedding party, it sounds amazing though with so many people involved! That's great you managed to get a DJ booked also, have you thought about a photographer yet? That's the only thing we have done except actually booking up

i meant **great job
