Just wanted to let you all know, they came to agreement and regular business starts tomorrow with no delays

I heard about that as well! Thank goodness! lol! I still think it will be faster for me to hand deliver to anyone I will see over the next couple of weeks due to backlog. Has it been two weeks of mail piling up?? There are bound to be delays!

But I am undecided if I should go with them, as they wont know the color scheme until the day, or if I should just purchase real touch flowers.   I have booked a sound system, rather than a DJ... for the dinner I am undecided because they wanted 1500 for the dinner, or 18 per person.. which isnt bad, but seeing how I am at an AI resort, many of my guests feel I should just take over the buffet rather than shelling out money for a dinner that could be free.  (I am a 4th year student in the Nursing Program and Have a new baby and a new house that I have to pay for, so I think my guests are having my best interests at heart)... because of the financial aspect, I dont know if I can afford to do OOT bags for my entire guest count, but I know forsure I am buying them a personalized deck of cards... incase we run into some inclement weather or for the plane ride back.  Also, I have purchased my rings, Mine is a channel band, with the two outter channels as princess cut white diamonds, and the inner will be princess cut black diamonds. I have my hairstyle all picked out and ready (I can do it myself, but as a part of my package I get my hair done for free, so again I am unsure of what to do because I know that I like the way I can do it, where as If I go with them, who knows what I will be getting...) I dont know where it will be held or what to expect, and the wedding coordinator has kind of left this information out, so I will email her in a month or so and get the details all ironed out.  OH I also purchased tank tops for the bridal party that are personalized... I will post a picture of all of this (other than the rings) I pretty much just need to make up my mind on these and figure out if wedding programs are appropriate or not, really, everyone will know whats going on... its not like I have a big agenda to follow... it will just be the wedding, possibly dinner, and reception to follow.... I dont know, I guess I just feel overwhelmed lol.

Thanks Deniden! That is great news. It must be just this resort The Royal is one of my other choices. What do you like about the Royal that made you choose it. I am so indecisive! Picking the place is so hard But I am set on the Playa del Carmen area!!!

Hello ladies, I haven't been back to this thread in awhile and now I realized I have been missing out!!!! I am heading home for the holiday weekend tomorrow and hope to convince my mom and sister to help me do a few DIY projects I have purchased flowers to make my bridesmaid's bouquets but I'm starting to worry about I will transport them already assembled. Have any of you thought about this or are you just getting flowers there?

[luvmoo]

I am just getting my flowers there as i am also worried about them getting ruined ..
