    @@malyna good point! @@JennyZ I think $1300 is an excellent price. It is impossible to please everyone, I am sure most people will realise you are doing the best you can!

    @@NickiLynn1116 I have the same situation, I was thinking to send my offsite WC a card, but I hadn't thought about a tip. I like the idea of bringing envelopes with $20 and $50 to distribute as we see fit.

    @ that's true, usually people are busy and a bit tipsy by the time the cake is cut.

    @@calgarybride2015 wow that is a really reasonable rate! Glad they turned out.

    @@JennyZ I totally know how you feel! It seems like some people have a mistrust of travel agents, and presume they can get a better deal through expedia etc. We have some people who didn't put a deposit down by our deadline, and are now paying way more to attend. We also have some people who are staying elsewhere because our resort is sold out for most of our wedding week. This is disappointing, and do feel a bit guilty about how much money people are spending.

    @@carrieandsam we are using PhotoStudioAB, they were recommended by people we know. Our first choice was Matais Cano, who is one of the approved photographers, but he is too pricey for us. @@Tiffany Fox sorry to learn you weren't happy with Caribe. Hopefully your friends and family took lots of photos of your wonderful wedding!

    @@AllieH thanks for the setup info. Even with the cost of additional baggage and the setup fee it still seems less expensive to bring our own decorations! @@kmk2016 that is good to learnit will still be a max of $250.

    @@Tiffany Fox I'm glad you guys had a fun night at the mojito bar, we are planning to head there after our reception too. I'm sad to learn the DJ is crummy, I'm not sure if I want to pay my DJ extra to stay. @@kmk2016 your cocktail reception sounds really nice, I'm sure your guests will appreciate it.

    We are going to ask the MOH and best man to do speeches, plus all our parents want to say something which will be three speeches as my parents are divorced and can't do anything together (fun). Then we will say thanks and that will be that!

    We are also doing a MS and FD dances at the same time. We are not doing a garder toss as I have never liked the idea of my husband removing my lingerie in front of our families and then sharing it with his friends....... We really want to do the shoe game, but I'm not sure who to ask to do it. We are using the DJ as our MC but I think someone who knowsnus would be a better choice.

    Our group package is similar to @@calgarybride2015 and @@kmk2016, we have seven departure cities included. The prices varied slightly, all within $200 for a one week stay and airfare. Unfortunately a few cities had different departure dates, so our friends from Vancouver will arrive a day before the majority of the group, and our friends from Ottawa will arrive a day later.

    I'm planning to bring a lot of stuff for my wedding, and I'll bring receipts for anything possible. I think if you have a receipt and you aren't leaving anything in Mexico it should be ok.

    @@nadiakat17 I don't think I would mind the arrangement you decribed with your family, but it sure would be nice to have a break with your hubby somewhere private if possible. I read somewhere that 75% of couples don't get busy on their wedding night, but kudos to those who do!

    @@Lia33 I know what you mean! We are bugging all our invitees to let us know if they will be attending, so we can plan our event! Some people seem surprised that they need to rsvp. I don't want to be rude and harass people, but if they want a chair to sit on and food they do need to let us know they will be showing up...

    We are actually thinking of using luggage tags as our escort cards so that they will double as wedding favours. So we really appreciate the info about where you got yours, they are really nice. We're doing OoT bags too. The maracas will be so fun! It's Canadian Thanksgiving, so best wishes to everyone here regardless of if you are eating turkey today.

    I love the package you sent to your guests! Where did you find the custom luggage tags? That's good to know! We are flying down with Westjet for the BDR in November, I think we may need to find our own way to the resort then? It is good to know our Sunwing package includes an airport transfer-thanks! Thank you for that info! We will into using them in Nov, and I'll pass that along to my guests coming from the US and UK.

    That's awesome to learn. Thanks!

    This info is so great! We have lots of info on our wedsite, but a lot of our guests don't seem to be checking/reading it, so far. This will really help us highlight the important information. Thanks!
