@@LoLoJabs Hello!! We brought almost all our own decorations. It wound up costing us roughly $150 to give to the resort plus flying them there, but it was sooooo much cheaper than what the resort was offering. We bought cheap luggage at a yard sale and left it in Mexico so that we didn't have to pay for our luggage there and back (saved us some money). We didn't have any problems getting through customs. I had 4 extra bags with decor, gifts, and wedding day supplies.
My mom actually made all our bouquets ahead of time using artifical flowers. I was against it at first, but you can't even tell in our photos. And now I have my flowers displayed in my house and they are and will forever be just as vibrant as our wedding day. Just something to think about!
