May 2011 Brides!

[Kendall]

Hello everyone! I'm a May 2011 bride as well! Have my invites sent out as well as most of my oot bag items purchased. Now that we officially have a thread I'm thinking the time is getting closer FAST! I haven't gotten a dress yet though - I'd better get movin'!

Wow! This thread is really gathering steam! So good to see how many people are joining!

The invite/save the date thing is really stressing me out. My fiance is FINALLY finishing up his (extensive) guest list, so we are getting ready to send the save the dates (my list has been finished for well over two months...sigh...) I really wanted to send them out one year in advance. We're planning to send out the invites in September/October. I'm almost wondering what the point is now! Seems like we should just bite the bullet and send out the invites now.

 

Ah well. The save the dates are finished, so I think we'll just have to move forward with our original plan...

 

The problem is I am SUCH a planner, and my fiance is a last minute guy. This obviously can cause some stress when I need him to do something wedding-related. He just doesn't see what the rush is...LOL...

We are getting married May 28, 2011 at ROR @ 4PM. Can't believe it is less than a year. Haven't really done anything except our STD. Here it is...

I am in the process of booking my photographer. I am using Cecilia Dumas.. she has great reviews and the price is good! She wants a 10% down payment to reserve the date. She asked me to wire the money to her bank and gave me the account number and such. Has anyone ever wired money before? How does it work? I'm assuming this in not weird to wire money to vendors, is it?

Wiring money is easy. Just go to your bank and tell them you would like to wire money and you just need the name on the account and the account number and name of the bank. There is normally a fee associated with it. Good luck and congrats on locking down a photog!

diamond- thank you so much! That makes me feel better. I think what it scary is the unknown!

hmmm... perhaps check out some past reviews from brides here on each of those resorts and the resort's overall rating and amenities on tripadvisor?

just take some time to discover what each resort has to offer vs. what you wish to have & the tone you want to set for your wedding.
