November 2011 Brides (or Grooms)

[future mrs k]

November 21, 2011 at the Grand Sirenis!!!  I can't wait!  Just got engaged May long weekend so it is a shorter planning period and it looks like it is going to be a big group coming (about 60+) so it should make for a fabulous time!!!

Wow lucky you.  Only 6 months of planning and 60+ guests.  You are a very lucky woman.  Congrats and Good Luck with your planning.

Hello ladies! How are everyones plans coming along? This time 5 months I'll already be married! I can't believe how fast the time is going and I feel like I still have so much to do!

Have any of you sent out your invitations yet? If not when do you plan on sending them? I'm hoping for mid July, so 4 months ahead (save the dates were sent in March), does that sound about right for a destination wedding?

[clgriffi7]

I sent my invitations out at the start of May, so 6 months in advance but it hasn't helped.  The few guests that we are expecting are still taking their sweet time booking.  However, I am not too worried....as long as our families get their acts together then we will have the most important people there.  At this point it looks like we will have 20-25 guests.  We were initially expecting more (especially with the size of his extended family), but we have come to realize that fewer people means we can spend more on the ones that do come and make it a better experience for them.

 

I have been in contact with an excursion company (based out of Tulum, Mexico) to do a tour from our hotel in Cancun to the ruins in Tulum, snorkeling in a lagoon, and then snorkeling in a cenote.  The price is $85 plus the cost of lunch at a beach restaurant - so ~$100/pp.  There is no way we could have considered paying for an excursion like that for everyone if we were having a bigger turnout.  In case anyone is interested, here is the link for the excursion company (they have gotten fantastic reviews on trip advisor):
