I tried websites and nothing. I emailed him, still nothing. Oh well! I love Sam's work as well. small wedding, 10ppl? I will go with an ipod, for a big wedding, over 30 people, I feel I need a DJ to handle the crowd, make them get on the dance floor, etc. A good DJ will have the charisma to get people going.

don't count on those that "have let you know" just yet. I have read so much about how so many people say they will go and at the end they do not go. Go only by the number or rooms booked

I tried all the possible ways to get in contact with Gonzalo Nunez and all the links I tried didn't work. So I went with Samuel Luna

The packages do not include your reception, only the ceremony, there is a $300 per table additionally if you want the package theme for your reception, with that said, I went with the complementary because I didn't feel like expending a fortune for the ceremony which takes about 15 minutes! Then I changed my mind to a religious ceremony and just paid the priest fee, I decided not to do a package for that either. I am sure that with the money you would pay for a package for the ceremony you could get much more for your buck.

You are lucky, my FI doesn't get involved, I wish, all he says is: whatever you like I am ok with it.

I have been to MP on a site visit, I am also getting married there, the service is outstanding, you will love it. All of the palace resorts are A M A Z I N G!

Totally with you, I am a planner and I am not able to plan without a number. I am not making extra anything just in case, but I am also not going to chase anyone, whomever has RSVPd by the date will get an OOT bag, those that wait last minute will not, and I am going to plan from there.

Out of control* that was

My budget if put of control right now, I choose a package for photos, video and Cenote TTD for $4500. I did not wanted to sacrifice photo quality and style for just a person with a camera without style. At first I didn't considered video but after watching a couple of movie style videos and showing FH we decided to have it, and I will NOT do without the cenote TTD, even though I don't swim, that should be an interesting one.

Welcome, and OMG, good luck catching up, that is going to take you months. About the registry, I do not have one, I believe is more than enough if people can change their vacation plans to be with us, or plan their vacation around or wedding. Wedding presents are supposed to be what it will cost you per plate at your wedding so since its not the case, I really don't see it as something I should have.

I was quoting Vivi, she seems to be a little confused about it. I do have a TA but I deal directly with the resort when I have questions, they usually get back to me the same day.

You should have an offsite WC, I have one and I get married a year from now.

Not registered here and no planning on one. We just want people to be there.

Where did you order from?

All of their wedding locations are humongous, but they make them cozzy for your party size.

Haha, now its all clear to me, toiletries and shoes take all the room. Still, very good packing skills.

Dont be sorry, that is the WTG

That is impossible, that bag would not even fit my shoes

No, I was not offered to try the food so I don't think that is an option, unless you ask for?

BTW, my FB name is Sobeida Manan, I tried to add many of you but I got too many people with the same name and did not wanted to be a weirdo adding people by mistake.

I finally got all catch up with this thread, are we still going to post in here and in the FB group? I think I will have to quit my job to be able to keep up with the two. LOL GOOD MORNING LADIES! And thank you all that congratulated me. It's indeed very exciting and scary at the same time.

Believe me, people just want the easy way, I have a website which no one have visited and people that visited, still ask me 1000 questions that they could find the answer for in there. Can I see your invites?

I know we have all said that you are ok with not wanting him to go, but don't forget its your FH wedding too, and regardless of his condition, its his father; sometimes we just have to go with the flow . Whatever the final decision is, I hope for the best. Quote: Originally Posted by moodyc82 I KNOW what I forgot....the FI stuff... So for the last 6 weeks I basically haven't even seen my FI b/c when we had a talk about how much money we still need for the wedding he's gone APE with saving.....it's ridiculious. I'm happy b/c we managed to just save $1,500 in two weeks because of it but it's summer time and I'd like to spend some times with him. He's worked so much overtime that I think I've spent one day with him in the last month and a half. I can't work overtime at work, it's only allowed if it's preapproved and for a special reason. Like in Nov I'll get some OT b/c of the budget books I have to do for the org.....which i HATE doing btw. But he seriously could pick up OT every day. His deductions from his check yesterday was more than I made in two weeks....that's sick.....anyways....that's all he has had input on for the wedding, other than the cost he could careless what goes on, except the crap with his father. We had another fight about that before I went out lastnight, think that was the reason I drank so much wine. I tried telling him if his father wants help that's great but he needs to tell him that we do not feel that it is healthy for an alcoholic to be in an AI resort.....he will not listen though and it's really starting to piss me off. He keeps swearing the man will screw up before and he'll have to uninvite him but my whole thing is what if he doesn't.......ugh......back to "working"

Awww, sorry! Hopefully she will get better by then so she can share your big day with you! Hugs

Thanks Kasey, well, she is going to walk me down the aisle and I think she will be very happy about that (even though she thinks it should be my father's) - I do know my father will not be happy about it but there are many things I can call him out for, :-) I will figure another way of honoring her too!
