I found a pretty cool website for DIY wedding invitations. Thought some people might be interested. These are the ones that I like.

 

Beach Sandals Wedding Invitations

candicemarie -

 

i just got a menu for the spa e-mailed to me over the weekend. i'm not sure if i can post it here, but i'd be happy to e-mail it to you if you give me your address. no idea how the prices compare to the royal, since i haven't seen that menu. but i would say the prices are on par with spas in the US.

i just found a site yesterday that does custom printing and they have GREAT prices. they have wedding invites, matching envelopes, thank yous, etc. but i think i'm going to go with their postcards and use them for invites for our at home reception. i can get 250 glossy postcards, full color on the front and back for $80-something. check them out at www.vistaprint.com.

I only have 78 more days until I leave for Mexico...yikes!

 

Yesterday I emailed Zulma to ask if she could book out Maria's at the Gran for my dinner rehearsal...still haven't heard back. No surprise there. I hear she is great to work with but I can't really get a response from her when I email her.

 

I also decided enough was enough with these stupid flowers and went ahead and ordered real touch flowers that I am bringing down with me. The cost was only $450 for 10 bouts, 7 bridesmaid bouquets, 1 bride bouquet and 4 corsages w/wristlets. I'm so excited to see them finished. I wish I could post a pic for you guys of the ones I picked out. Anyway....i'm just going to use my "free" bouquet from the resort as the toss bouquet with the same color flowers.

 

I'm getting so excited, but the more I look at my closet filled with wedding supplies I need to bring down I'm starting to wonder if I have enough suitcases =)

I know what you mean! I just got a box of 40 maracas and am wondering how I am going to get them down there. I was hoping to just carry everything down in bags, but this is a little extreme. I'm thinking they are going to have to be shipped.

Could you tell me where you ordered your real-touch flowers from? I've been going back and forth and can't decide what to do. I haven't been able to find any real-touch place that is affordable that are taking orders still for May weddings. Thank you!

i dont think you can book out a restaurant...thats what i heard.

 

i am using this etsy seller to make my real touch bridesmaid bonquets/bouts and it is only costing me $219 for 7 bonquets/ 11 bouts. she is really nice! i've seen her work in some of the reviews here.
