Hello ladies, it has been quite a while since we've seen the updated list of who is getting married when. We are on July 14, 2013. ANyone else around that time? Also wondering...do we have to feed the photographer?

Decided to not send STDs, because the Invitations took us so long to order and get sent, there's only 9.5 months left till the wedding now. Yikes, time flies.

After a LOT of research, decided to pay a little $ (only $149 for the year) and use eWeddings.com. It has some great choices for templates and lots of flexibility. Also pretty easy to use. Money well spent!

Hi AlyssaNYC, we'll be seeing you at the resort, our wedding is on July 14. Are you doing a beach wedding or Sky Deck? Just wondering.

I also have Lynda, but I haven't really done anything on the planning side, beyond reserving the date and getting an e-mail from her with all the info. I feel like there's still some time left, but as Jenny said, it seems like it's flying by. My added surprise prior to the wedding, my FI and I are due in January. That puts a little brake on getting things like the dress, etc. Anyone else facing unexpected challenges in their planning process?

Thanks for the info. This makes me so confused, because I've seen some pictures of beautifully decorated private rooms that have a dance floor and are pretty nice. My problem is that my wedding is probably going to have around 80 people, so we are looking for an air-conditioned space, where we can have a DJ, dance floor, room to move around, etc. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

For Canadian Brides going to Sensatori: Is anyone else finding that the prices quoted for rooms alone (when reserving a block) by a TA are almost the same (within $200 CAD) as the price for a package you can buy online through Sunwing or itravel200.com? I am wondering if maybe it's just the TA I am using, but I cannot, in good conscience, ask my guests to spend more money than necessary to come to my wedding. I would rather have more people I love be able to make it, then have the $450/night/person honeymoon suite. Is it just me?

Hi there, would you happen to have any pictures of the Salons? I believe they are called Salon Sky, Salon Ocean, etc. I haven't seen any brides on here having their reception there, so I am hoping to find some more info on this. We would really like a private Reception with DJ and dance floor and I'm trying to figure out the best place for that, with 50-80 wedding guests. Thanks for your help!

Ladies...here's a quote from their website (in description of the Free Sweet Wedding Package): "Valid in Canada (except at AZS), in USA and MEX and reservations booked at published rates only. Must be requested at least 30 days in advance. Free Wedding Package is not valid for AZS in Canada." I booked the Pearl, because we're coming from Norway and to book the "free" you have to book at their published rates, I think we got a good deal on the room rate from our TA, saving us and our guests lots of money. Since people are travelling so far to be with us, we'd rather spend some money on the wedding then cost even more for everyone else.

Did any of you guys notice this last line in the Silver package Description? "Ceremonies at Azul Sensatori Hotel from Canada can be confirmed Sunday to Thursdays only. " I wonder why and if that's the reason I couldn't have my original date??? Just seems strange.

July 14, 2013 at Azul Sensatori, Cancun (ish) Mexico!!!

Hi Ladies, Just wondering if anyone has any advice on which (free or cheap) website to use as our Wedding Site? I see different ones out there, but am wondering if you have a favorite? Thanks!! J

Good luck on your special day! It does sound like it'll be amazing, and the Minister sounds like a wise man. Although I imagine it'll be hard for you to concentrate on what he's saying since you'll be so lost in each other. Please post your pictures and reviews once you get back. We considered Le Reve for our location too, but have too many guests, so settled on Azul Sensatori instead. I'd love to see what could have been. Anyway, have an amazing time! Congratulations!
