I am definitely wearing mine up. It would drive me nuts while trying to take pictures! You could ask your wedding planner or resort if there is a better time of the day for your ceremony when it is less windy @@BusyBee280

Great to know! Thanks for sharing @@Linds1204

@@acw271011 that is awesome! We had a couple pieces of fruit that we forgot about confiscated. My concern was if for some reason they thought the flowers were real.

Definitely some great tips!

@@robin439 @@WZM2014 @@erikag17 did any of you end up getting married at the Playa Grande?? I am going to Cabo next month to do some site inspections and wanted to get your thoughts.

Hi there! Just wanted to see if anyone knows if there could be any issues getting fake flowers through customs, specifically to Cabo San Lucas. Any future brides who have contacted anyone about this or any past brides had experience with this? I am wanting to make my own bouquet and boutonniere but would hate to have them confiscated on the way to my wedding!

These turned out AMAZING! Definitely giving this a try

I don't know which resort you are planning to get married at but when I have asked about guests being required to stay at the resort it doesn't matter how you book the rooms (i.e. expedia.com, timeshare, directly through the resort, etc.) maybe check with the coordinator to see what their policy is.

@@soulgroovy I actually came across her on a blog I saw on Pinterest (gotta love it!). I can forward you her pricing if you need it. I thought it was a little less then what I would pay here in California and have seen other's post about using photographer's in Cabo that are over $5k-$10k! In my opinion, I am willing to cut corner's on some stuff for the wedding but pictures are forever and this is not something that I want to feel disappointed with. It is honestly almost all I ever think about! And even crazier....I am not even engaged yet but I know it is coming in the next month LOL. My boyfriend and I have been together for 8 years and just finally decided to start getting serious about getting married about a month ago.

I also am looking at keeping the budget around $5000. Please share any tips and information....and CONGRATULATIONS )

@@soulgroovy My first name is Holly, and nice to meet you! I am definitely a no fuss type of girl too and they seem to offer the total package with the exception of photography (let me know if you got the information in your e-mail from Lupita) and the rates were pretty reasonable but I am leaning towards Sara Richardson (check her our on Stylemepretty.com). I have a timeshare too and it actually is right next door to the Finisterra at Playa Grande. Our resort network though is through RCI and the Finisterra is within our network. So your uncle must just be in the same boat where he can exchange to that resort or can book an "extra vacation" there where he doesn't have to use his weeks. I've also read that if your guests do the 1.5 hour timeshare presentation they save a HUGE amount on their room. We did one with the intentions of saving the money....and then walked out the door with a timeshare!

@@soulgroovy after reading your post a did a little research into the wedding packages and Finisterra seems to offer the most bang for your buck! I e-mailed them and heard back from Lupita this morning and was told that ALL of your guests are required to stay at the resort (irritating) but I e-mailed back asking if it just has to be the night of the wedding.

These are adorable!

LOVE this! Thanks for sharing.

Definitely getting the wedding party app!

Can't see it either

Following your topic....I am looking to get married at Playa Grande (next door to the Finisterra) summer of 2015. We are heading down next month and plan to visit a couple of resorts. Do you have a site visit planned?? If not and we go there let me know if there is anything in particular you have questions about

I better get to posting away.....

How exciting!!! I will actually be in Cabo for that week so I may "peek" on your wedding. We are planning to get married in Cabo next summer and the Riu Palace is one resort we are planning to visit. Can't wait to hear about all of the details after the wedding
