December 2012 brides

[Branya2012]

My goodness, some of you December brides are so prepared!! (DwBride2Be!!) We are getting married on December 5 at Las Caletas, Puerto Vallarta, Mexico and we are staying at the Barcelo PV for the week of the wedding. My then-hubby and I will be staying at Dreams PV for our honeymoon the following week!

 

Planning is going really well. We have sent STDs and invitations (seperately) and have 16 people booked (including ourselves, I believe. Should I know that number?? ). We still have to find my groom some clothes and then decide on decorations and flowers, but we'll do that just a few months away from the wedding. I'm glad I found the December 2012 thread...we can be excited together!!

 

Happy planning December brides!!

You guys sound prepare, I get married on December 22nd, I feel like I'm so behind, just a week ago I sent my invitation, I think I should've sent them earlier, I still don't know who are the groomsmen. my bridesmaids don't have their dresses, I still don't have a dress.   well I do, but I don't like the way it looks on me anymore.      still got so much things to do, I think I'm stressing ughhhhhhhh..  gosh I wish I could move the wedding to a later date now.  (just needed to vent)

Dome stress..start making to do lists so that way when things get accomplished you feel better. I would definitely start with finding your dream dress after all it is your day!

Sounds stressful, but just keep in mind that this is the luxury of having a destination wedding . . .no real timelines.  Luckily, you have reserved your date already and sent out your invites, which are the two most important tasks in destination wedding planning if you ask me so good job there!!  Everything after that you are kinda just allowed to go with the flow on! I would prioritize with either "fix'ering up" your dress or finding a new dress at this point, and kinda just go from there!  Our wedding party still doesnt have their outfits even picked out, but I'm in no real rush, lol.  Just remember to have fun with it!!

Thank you Mcree. you're so right, I'll priorize my wedding dress, the rest oh well, if they are ready they walk and if they are not ready then they can seat and watch me walk.  LOL.  Thanks.

[negritadr]

Thank you, I will definetely focus on the dress. I think the rest of the things are just minors ones, I mean comparing to the dress.

You're so welcome! And atta' girl! Trust me, It'll all come together in the end. Enjoy the planning-or lack of it(lol), and keep us updated!

Wow, crazy how soon it really is!  Feels like just yesterday we were at the year mark, lol!  

 

As far as DIY, I've  been Doing SOOOO many projects(some little, some big)  ALL inspired by this forum to save a penny here and there. The list is kinda long so bare with me(lol) i DIYed our logos(ttok forever beacuse i am horrible with computers), message in bottle STDs, passport invites, luggage tags, in the process of working on brochures, all of our OOT bag labels(wedding week survival kit, First Aid kits, playing card labels, welcome folder and letters, Do not disturb signs, etc.), centerpieces, cake toppers, ribbons on ceremony fans, my hair flower, etc.  My next project is painting Mr and Mrs on our parasol for photos, menus, finishing place cards, ceremony programs, etc. As you canxee, I love to DIY-it's my favorite part!  What kind of projects are you working on? Im sure there are sooo many more personalized, penny saver projects that I lefty out!  I want to hear how all of yal''s are going ladies.  I dont have templates- never learned how to save anything to word where it could be edited if that makes any sense .  Couldnt figure it out, but i'd be happy to copy / paste text, post pics of what i have, etc. if anyone needs ideas.  Cant wait to hear from all of you December brides.  We're getting sooooooo close!!! Happy planning ladies!
