Blue Venado Brides---post here!!

More and more brides are choosing to get married off-resort, and the beautiful Blue Venado Beach Club is fast becoming a venue of choice! I am so excited about our April 2014 wedding in this venue and hope that other past and future brides will post here to share their experiences.

HELLLO I am here, I am aiming for August waiting to hear back if the date is available ( fingers crossed). I am looking all over for reasonable resorts let's see what I find, how many guests are you expecting?

Yay!! I am so excited for you!  I am hoping for no more than 60 or so, but who knows with destination weddings?

Me too!!!

Wow that's pretty big for a DW, I am inviting about 65 and expecting about 25 ( and that may be over doing it) LOL

Yeah, we were going to invite around 120 in hopes of getting 60, but honestly, I just want to keep costs down by inviting our nearest and dearest. So as of now, we are going to invite 100, and if we get less than our target number of 60, I am totally okay with that.  That means we can do more for our guests that DO come.

I totally agree, I think that is the beauty of destination weddings you know that the people that DID come, really want to share the day with you and the hubby. Most of our 25 guests will be family which is cool, they are going to complain because my cousin just had her DW in Punta Cana and they all said it was too much $$ blah blah but hey they went LOL. This is our 3rd attempt to plan a wedding and I got so much SH** the last couple times that no one even knows we are planning, they will know when they get the STD in the mail, I dont want to hear anyone's negativity.
