11 Days........down to 11 days until I leave......WOW, the time sure flew by! I've got almost everything packed plus a little extra. Monday the 15th is my day of beauty (last tan session, waxing session, eyelash extensions, hair cut/color, nails, toes, and eyebrows) and then on the 16th I have a 10 hour drive to my FI in WV. Meeting up with my MOH on the 17th to figure out how to get all this crap....I mean wonderful wedding stuff in the 3 suitcases I am taking. Then Friday the 19th we are on our way!!!! CANNOT wait!!!! Feeling a bit overwhelmed, but hanging on!!!

Ok, quick question about your iPods and your wedding music set up. Did you label your playlists like this: Guest Seating Groom/Best Man Maid of Honor Bride Signing of Certificate Dinner Music After Dinner Music or did you label it like; Wedding Playlist and then label songs as I did above Then have your dinner Music playlist and After dinner Music list with songs just labeled their normal names? I just want to make sure it's easy for them and for me

Just to add to what Allie and Amanda said, we LOVED Cocotal for breakfast. They have a huge with tons of breads, fruit, yogurt, etc.....they do special order omelets and eggs.....or they have a menu with amazing choices. I had fajita and eggs with green sauce almost every day....they were AMAZING!!! I also had an egg white omelet with spinach, mushrooms, tomatoes and cheese. I just can't say enough about how great all of the food was!!! I can't wait to return in 17 days!!!

3 weeks from today!!! Woooohooo!! I can't believe it's almost here. I spent the weekend doing a lot of last minute things and still have 2 little projects I have to finish up, but almost done!! I am seriously worried about getting everything into our 3 suitcases.......I have 1 that is completely FILLED to the rim with decorations and OOT bag items, however I still have 6 chair hangers, 18 raffia fans, 18 tumblers, 12 parasols, and 8 tote bags and all the props for the photobooth........whew, how in the world am I going to fit all that??? I was considering a few snacks for the guests, but don't think that's going to happen. Guess they will have to get their own food I've still got to throw together some receipts, but not sure what is going in what suitcase so trying to hold off until I figure that out. So, hair appt set, nail appt set, waxing appt set and eyelash extension appt set......think that covers it all, for now!!! Sooooooooo excited!!!!

So this is supposed to be a happy time, right? I've had the worst week ever to include a falling out with my parents on Sunday, my youngest son hitting a parked car, my oldest son coming home from the Army and on and on and on!! So did any of you just wish you could call the whole darn thing off and un-invite everyone and just go somewhere with your FI and get married alone? I am just soooo over it and not sure what to do!!

WOW, beautiful pictures!!! Can't wait to hear your review, but hope you get to feeling better soon!! I had been sick since Feb 20 myself and just getting back to normal......hey, maybe it's a destination wedding thing Take your time with the review and get yourself well, we will all be here waiting!!

Fortunately my FI is totally hands off......he doesn't care about any of the details......he said he just wants to marry me and I can have whatever I want and do whatever I want as long as the end result is that he's got me Have I mentioned we were high school sweethearts, married other people and here we are in our 40's finally marrying each other.....life is good!!

I really struggled with this as well. My MOH told me to pick 4 or 5 songs and then we decided together what would work best for what I wanted. My MOH and the groom/best man are all using the same song......save some time. Groom/BM/MOH - Forever Love by Gary Barlow Bride - Joy by George Winston Signing of Certificate - 1000 Years by Christina Perri Recessional - Linus & Lucy by George Winston Very non-traditional.....but that's kind of me. Although the 1000 years song is from Twilight, which I did not know until someone told me....haven't read the books or seen the movies, but love the song!!! So, you are right is just a personal choice, but I like TheWolferts idea!!

I can't believe it's only a month away. I've been sick going on 4 weeks and finally on some super strong antibiotics to hopefully kill all of those horrible bacteria invading my body so I can get back to getting things done and not sleeping all the time!!! The antibiotic is causing some insomnia, so then my brain goes in to OVERLOAD when I'm laying in bed. Well, I am assuming that's the antibiotic and not my nerves!!! I feel like I still have so much to do and not enough time to do it!! Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhh...... Anywho, I'm getting sooo excited!!!! I got my cute little koozies that I designed. Love them!!!

Hey ladies!! I'm back again with a packing/luggage question. How many suitcases/carry ons/etc did you and your now husbands take? Was it a royal pain getting through customs. I've been before and know it all gets xrayed again but i'm just worried about what a hassle it's all going to be. At this point we will have 3 checked suitcases. He will have computer bag, and a small suitcase carry on. I will have wedding dress, purse and bag of some sort. It just seems like a TON!!! Would love to hear how it went for you guys!!

Thanks you guys!! I was planning to wrap and label everything in one suitcase and pull out what I need for the OOT bags when we arrive Friday and then deliver the suitcase to them on Saturday. Glad that's been done in the past. Didn't want to seem like an over-doer I can't believe it's getting so close, now if I can only stay well and get these last things done that I keep putting off hoping that the wedding fairy will come take care of for me Oh, did anyone have guests come to Mexico but stay at other resorts? My WC put the $72/pp fee for the day pass on my spreadsheet, but I have asked her to remove it as I have asked them to pay that themselves. Is that wrong? I mean I sent out all the info about the wedding, etc. If they chose to stay somewhere else but want to attend the wedding shouldn't that be their responsibility to pay? I think I'm paying for enough, but don't want to seem like a big meanie!!!

Ok, so this is kind of a stupid question but what did you use to take all of the decorations to the meeting with the wedding coordinator? Just some plastic bags or like the reusable shopping bags? I'm worried about having a TON of stuff to lug to the meeting and getting it there!! Thanks for the help ladies!!

Sorry I missed this.....yes, I think they are great quality for the price. My MOH was going to make them, but even buying the cheapest thinnest material we could get our hands on, these were still cheaper and much better quality. I hope they work for you, I was really pleased with them.....I even ordered a few more
