Hi ladies! This is my first post....I stumbled across this site this morning & have literally spent my entire day on it! We are planning a destination wedding in Puerto Rico for April 2013. So excited & glad to have other brides that are going through the craziness that is involved in planning a destination wedding!

Bamabride!!!! Congrats! I just got engaged last saturday and we too are planning our destination wedding in PR for July 2013. I am so excited but completely overwhelmed. I have been looking at La Concha in San Juan. I would like to try and find a hotel in San Juan so that my guest have plenty to do in walking distance. Please let me know how you planning is going?

Congratulations! Yay for PR Brides! I know, it is pretty overwhelming planning a wedding, especially when you don't live where you want to get married. I have looked into a TON of venue....mostly hotel...in San Juan. I have actually been to La Concha, it's beautiful! Last time we went to PR, we stayed in San Juan & walked everywhere. There's so much to do, your guests will love it. Right now we are 99.99% sure we are getting married in Old San Juan at El Morro & then renting out part of a restaurant for the reception. But we shall see, seems like our planning changes daily ha. We are thinking we'll have 40-50 guests.

Have you looked at http://www.bodaclickpr.com? It's in spanish, but your computer should be able to translate it if you need. It's a great source of info for different PR vendors. Let me know how your planning is going! So glad to have another PR Bride!

Yes I too have been using bodaclicker.com. I will definitely keep you updated on my planning. Old San Juan is just beautiful! Its reassuring to know that La Concha is just as beautiful in person as the pictures. I am still going to look into a couple of different hotels just to compare rates, but I just have fallen in love with La Concha!
