Bags are from Jessica at the stylish scribe. She did my invitations, place cards, and bags. She was great to work with but stays super busy. The bags are alittle thin but everyone loved them. She was a destination bride that did all of her stuff DIY and then turned it in to a business. Here is a pic of my bag.

Yes I did but small. I did canvas bags with 2 maracas on it and playa Mujeres, Mexico 2013 in blue and lime green. Inside we did a beach ball, deck of cards shaped like a flip flop, candy bags, sunscreen, ibuprofen, and a bag of q-tips tied with lime green ribbon.

My bridesmaids dresses were blue and then ribbons were lime green. I love color so I added more color at reception with maracas. The menu just had a calla Lilly as border which I used those as my flowers. I uploaded a pic for you. The dinner and dancing was 3 hrs. Try not to stress over it it will all turn out beautiful. When you get closer to your wedding you will get a planner that has everything detailed out. You will also sit down with coordinator to discuss all of your choices once your at resort. We had also never been to the resort this blog and pictures helped me tremendously snd one reason I did destination is for less stress, but if your not careful you can make it very stressful. Also when you email your coordinator just know it will most likely take several days to get a response, but once it's your turn and your day you have all of there attention.

We had ours at the CECO terrace with 20 people and it was perfect. We did the included 3 hr dinner/reception with an iPod doc. My husband created 2 playlist one for dinner and one for dance music. The 3 hrs fly by. For decoration we purchased maracas on Amos.com for each place setting with alittle card that said shake to see the groom kiss his bride. Everyone loved them! We did 2 per person but you could totally do 1 per person. I had place cards made and Llenny made the menu card. I also purchased table runners in lime green from Llenny for each table. I'll post pics when I get them.

I had my makeup and hair done at the salon and they did a fabulous job. All of my bridesmaids did as well. They primarily use Mac makeup.

Caribbean trio or mariachi band?????? Anyone know which is better for cocktail hr?
-
What is everyone doing for centerpieces? Less than 2 months till my wedding
-
Does the resort have a towel service? Or do we need to take towels?
-
Lenny is my coordinator and she has been great! We also booked our wedding approx a year in advance. 64 days to go!!!

A) We are using a local travel agent, but I live in a larger city. She also specialized in destination weddings and has been awesome to work with. I don't think it matters if they are in the same town though. The majority of our conversations have been through email and all my guest are from out of town. A private dinner is included in the top 2 wedding packages for max of 20 people. This is done after your cocktail hour, during the reception which is 3 hours long? When is your wedding date?
-
For us it was cheaper and more convenient.

DJ Mannia is who my wedding coordinator suggested. It's 900 dollars and you book through your wedding coordinator. Anyone else is an extra 500 to come onto resort.

So far I have ordered bags. I am going to put a bottle opener, personalized deck of cards, Chapstick, maybe sun screen, and not sure what else.

Did anyone have any trouble at the airport going through customs? With your OOT Bags and Items?

I'm using Adrian Herrera from Victor Herrera photography,. Another one to look at is Juan Navarro.
